I'll tell ya what's really making me feel older than a lot of the RMers isn't so much that you guys all liked this music while you were in highschool, but that you actually remember the videos. But this point on the timeline, me and my music snob friends had given up on videos as sort of a relic of the capitalist music overlords that Napster was going to overthrow.

woo woo

You know, if I stick to two rounds per week, this is gonna take forever. Everyone okay with doing three rounds per week instead?

So:

Round 1: Monday morning - Tuesday night
Round 2: Tuesday night - Thursday night
Round 3: Thursday night - Monday morning

What about GooGoo Dolls

Them vs. Fuel would've been appropriately horrible.

Early Goo Goo Dolls is pretty enjoyable. They had a Replacements/Husker Du/TwinTone sound.

I just checked this sub forum and there were no new posts. I was sad. I love this tourney

I'm loving it, too.

I always thought Surge should have an exclamation mark at the end.

THE NU METAL/POST-GRUNGE DEATHMATCH XTREME 2000 BY SURGE

I can pontificate on the still ongoing nu metal revival if you want. I won’t be able to post it until way later tonight though, and if LV is to be believed we’ll have nu rounds by then.

New matches coming tonight!

How many oz of Surge! would you estimate you've consumed in your lifetime?

Less than 30.

I always thought it, Mountain Dew and Mellow Yellow tastes like the a really gross Jolly Rancher.

Waaaaaaaaay too sugary for me.

Lucky.

I was fucking obsessed with those as a kid. Surge was my favorite, followed by the short-lived Kick, then Mellow Yellow, and then Mountain Dew.

I've consumed gallons and gallons and gallons of that shit.

I was stoked they brought back Surge a few years ago, shit was gnarly and tubular broh.

First matchups are finished!
