Well, then, with the gun to my head, Blondie in CBGB, but I love them all really.

Completely agree with Sabina and Gabbie... this is not next to impossible, it IS impossible!

Wouldn’t that be a fantastic show with all of them on the bill. Then you have to figure out the lineup ha.

I'm afraid not. And since you left her off your list, now you’re sentenced to seeing Blondie. 👮‍♂️

Well I can decide because I have inside info. Tina called and said “Take me to the river “ was off the playlist so I’m out on them. Lou is doing a full album set of “Metal Machine Music” so that’s out. I’m not in the mood for a “play until you puke” set from The Ramones. That leaves Blondie. Hell, I’m broke but “Dreaming is free”.

This logic is tighter than Jim Morrison's pants.

OK, I did my research on this one Sonny. Blondie was up-and-coming, Talking Heads had only one or two songs that I’ve heard of (and I’m not a fan of “I Zimbra”), Lou Reed is a pass, but the Ramones were right in their sweet spot, and I will never say no to “Sheena is a Punk Rocker” (of course I sing it as “Sheila is… a punk rocker”).

Ramones!! All the way! With Blondie in a double bill at CBGB’s!!🤘

Regarding U2: I didn't get a chance to comment this last week when I voted for them, but in 2013, I made a New Year's Resolution to try to go the whole year without hearing a U2 song. I was a carless city girl at the time and went out prepared with headphones etc., knowing they're oft forced upon us via convenience store music.

I lasted THREE DAYS before they came on at Dunkin Donuts when my hands were too full to get my iPod on in time. And I still feel violated from the morning I woke up 2 years later to find their new album had been forcibly installed on my iPhone without my consent.

they are a pox upon humanity
