I had previously thought about picking Corb Lund. One heck of a performer and writes some super awesome songs even though I don't care for country music.
The reprise of I Want to Be in the Cavalry, Student Visa's and Especially a Paint are all such great songs.
Jeez man...our tastes in music are scarily alike. Seriously.
There's a big story behind Student Visa's that he told in an interview with CBC Radio 3...I'll see if I can track it down.

If people weren't interested why did they sign up?
Probably puts the nail in the coffin for me and future drafts here. Great idea Girly and I appreciate your work so much, but it's not much fun when people just quit.

But the movie draft is going well
We may have to call this one off.. or just let people finish complete their teams at once.

geez, I was in the middle of nowhere all last week and had picks lined up. I think Torture should add Nana Mouskouri to his lineup for having us wait this long.
I am pretty sure I have to make two picks, so with my first make-up pick, I am going to select, in the bass player category, former member of Metallica, JASON NEWSTED.
Quote:
Jason Newsted (born March 4, 1963 in Battle Creek, Michigan) is an American bassist best known as the former bassist of Metallica. Currently he is a member of Voivod. Newsted also goes by the pseudonym Jasonic, which serves as both his alias in Voivod and the name of his music publishing company. He is also founder of the Chophouse Records studio and label based in California.
With my second make-up selection, I am going to take, in the drummer category, MIKE PORTNOY of Dream Theater.
Quote:
Michael Stephen "Mike" Portnoy (born April 20, 1967) is an American drummer primarily known for his work with the progressive metal band Dream Theater. Known for his drum prowess, Portnoy has won 23 awards from the Modern Drummer magazine. He has co-produced the last five Dream Theater albums with John Petrucci, starting from Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory. From A Change of Seasons onwards, Portnoy has been writing a substantial amount of Dream Theater's lyrics, filling the void left by Kevin Moore, who left the band after the release of Awake. He is the second youngest person (after Neil Peart) to be inducted into the Modern Drummer's Hall of Fame (at 37 years of age).

Did he abandon the site after the Wiccan thread he started? He got dogpiled pretty good there.
