    #4 Our? Jimi Hendrix

    You can't seed Hendrix ahead of the three acts in front if him guys. Three amazing studio albums, a half baked release by Band of Gypsies,and a bunch of money grab compilations released after his death simply can't match the overall production of the top three...like them or not.

    Jimi is the Michael Jordan of the electronic guitar. Nuff said.

    This is like a military battle between the UK and Norway. Norway's a great place... but...
    Yes VU is fucking amazing but Jimi is the greatest electronic guitarist of all time. Dude had a dope voice too and awesome lyrics.
    Electronic guitarist?

    Having said what I said above...my phone, old cd case, and media files on my desktop are dominated by four acts...Beatles, Jimi, Dylan, and Neil Young. The stones aren't far behind. I honestly don't know how I'll vote when/if any of these are matched up. I'll probably abstain.

    Maybe I'll be tequilla tough and take off the gloves so to speak. That might gain me the will and toughness to vote for one of my favorites over another.

    Disagree on everything Velvet Underground. No talent hacks championed by drug induced music writers

    You're kidding... they have tons of great songs.

    If you don't like these you need to do more drugs.
    I've done my fair share but haven't killed enough brain cells apparently to even pretend to think this is good music

    Jimi is a badass. Not a great singer but he didn't needs to be. His guitar did all the singing.

    That's about as emo-gay as I can get when writing about someone.

    #13 Velvet Underground

    I'm waiting for the man, 26 dollars in my hand...oh wait the man is Hendrix




    this is a fucking terrible seed. VU should be much higher and not go against Hendrix in Round 1. They were way too influential for this. Arguably, American punk rock and alternative music came from the Velvets, the Goo Goo New York Dolls, and the Ramones.

    I discovered the Dolls in the late 90s at UW. I tied to turn my friends on to their awesomeness. No one got it. Sad.

    I fucking love the trashy, seedy, proto punk groups of the late 60s and early 70's. DDY always chew my ass out for no Stooges.

    Literally zero need to justify this pick.

    Love the Velvet Underground. They should have been a team to make some noise in this tournament but they ran into a under-seeded blue blood that will be determined to show that they belong in the finals.

    The top half of the 60's bracket is fucking brutal. I don't know if I can vote Hendrix over the B Boys in Round 2. FML what fucking dip shit did these seedings?
