Baseball players get a personalized song every time they step up to bat. I would like that to happen to me in some way, shape, or form. That would be badass. Hence, this draft. This is the song you’ll be using to announce yourself to a crowd of 50,000 plus.
The rules: This can be any song by any artist. Once you pick a song, you cannot pick any other song by that artist, though other drafters may if they have not already. Pick a song, then wait ten picks till the next song.
That’s Josh Homme. He’s a fucking badass. I’ll be picking him up later on, but for now my first choice is the “Die! Die! Die!” bridge of “Creeping Death” by Metallica. I’ve already given my tribute to it.
Rock on, kids.
NOTE: If you do not own “Era Vulgaris” already, please do yourself the courtesy of going out and buying and/or stealing it. Don’t make me thrash you.


After research numerous of the weblog posts as part of your web site today, and I truly like your means of blogging. I bookmarked the item to my bookmark website checklist and definately will be checking back again soon. Pls review my website online as nicely and ok , i’ll know what you think.
I genuinely believe world war 3 will happen if only because wars have historically been the only sure-fire way out of recessionary times., don’t make world war 3 happen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQaleZFt7pc
The opening to “Wave of Mutilation” by The Pixies.
“note to Self: Don’t Die”
by Ryan Adams.
from the kcoR n LLoR album.
the greatest guitar riff intro of all-time. An alt-country icon kicks kurt kobain’s entire catalogue’s ass in the first 24 seconds of that song.
How has nobody picked YYZ?
For shame. SHAME.
Many days late, I claim “Go” by Pearl Jam.
…now batting for the white sox, jermaine dye!
Love Spreads, Stone Roses.
Opening guitar riff kicks ass.
boys from alabama – drive by truckers
i think i’m going to put that on a state flag at alabama games next year. I love being from the south it means you have to be completely obssessed with where you are from.
24 hours later and I can still get my 4th pick.
“Hellrazor” – 2pac
Human Nature, Michael Jackson
Over 16 hours late to the party and my #1 pick is still available.
Here Come the Bastards – PRIMUS
“Get ‘Em Shawty” – Killer Mike (Featuring Three 6 Mafia)
How could only one Nas song have been taken so far? This is blasphemous to the 9th degree. I would wait 10 picks but at this point I’ll be waiting 3 hours for that to happen.
I’ll take “N.Y. State of Mind” – Nas.
This might be the perfect song for my pregame introduction. Since if you’re Slippin’, someone might B.Y.S. (Bust Your Shit).
And to round out my dominant, Billy Beane-style of music drafting, I pick….
In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida – Iron Butterfly
So even though I started 3 hours late, I got away with this grand collection:
Regulate – Warren G
Child of the Night – Ludacris
Nas is Like – Nas
The Game – Motorhead
Fuck Dying – Ice Cube
Never Scared – Bonecrusher
Gonna Fly Now – whoever sang that for Rocky
In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida – Iron Butterfly
….and I’m spent.
This is what happens when you’re working from home and can only check KSK every two hours…
Damn you murderface for stealing all my picks, but you must be a brilliant person since brilliant minds think alike.
Ok, so with my 3rd selection in round 100, I’ll take:
Gangstarr. Mass Appeal.
One of the best songs of all time hands down.
Rainbow in the Dark- DIO
RJD is a fucking legend.
Wind It UP- Barenaked Ladies
I know how much this band has been trashed in this blog but the opening guitar part is perfect for a closer
i actually wrote about this last week, but catch hell blues from the white stripes
It’s surprising that something so obvious like Boom by P.O.D. lasted this long. Not that I would pick it, but still…
My last pick would be Feels So Good, by Chuck Mangione.
Nabbing “America, Fuck Yeah!” because we believe every fucking word of that song is true.
“Just to Get a Rep” by Gang Starr lasted this long? Bwah-ha-ha! Thanks, crackers.
OK, this is the other Ben. Fifth and final pick:
“How I Could Just Kill A Man” – Cypress Hill
To recap:
Ludacris – Southern Hospitality
Megadeth – Symphony of Destruction
Rolling Stones – Paint It Black
Pink Panther Theme Song
Cypress Hill – How I Could Just Kill A Man
Mel Kiper, Jr. just offered me a blowjob with a reacharound.
j.l., and when we get right down to it, that’s what really matters.
“Gonna Fly Now” – the them to Rocky
Great value at this round. Now the Sports Guy can’t have it!!!
“Song 2″ by Blur
sorry, other ben. i’ll be the ben who showed up, snagged a few gems, and then left.
my next pick:
The Big Payback
-James Brown
Easily the best psych-up song of all time. I don’t know karate, but I know CRAZY!
MOTHERFUCKER!!!
Thank you smello.
What to do, what to do.
OK, “Kicker of Elves” by Guided by Voices. Nobody will know what the hell I’m thinking if I walk out with that crazy shit blazin’.
“Death Threat” Kool G. Rap backed up by the Brand New Heavies.
You don’t think you’re going under?
I got a bullet with your name, your address, and your phone number
Signal To Noise: That was one of the first picks. ^_^
1) Judas Priest- Painkiller
2) Edguy- Mysteria
“Only” – NIN, chorus
There is no fucking you
There is only me
“Bring the Pain”–Method Man
What a freaking steal in round 7 million or whatever it is by now.
Has anyone taken the Tom Waits song “Way Down In the Hole” as done by the Blind Boys of Alabama? Song is badass on the first season of “The Wire”
No one took Pantera’s “Walk”? That riff owns. Mine now.
RE! SPECT!
3′s and 7′s -QOTSA
if your going to pick an intro from era vulgaris it has to be this song. I dont know how they got the guitars to sound like a screwdriver but its awsome.
That was taken about 100 picks ago, smoothvanillapocketrocket, which should not detract at all from the awesomeness of the selection.
+1 murderface. That was going to be my third pick. I’ll take:
Ice Cube
Jackin’ For Beats
Because, it the song is obviously the bomb.
“1812 Overture” by Tchaikovsky.
A little culture up in this bizzitch!
Seriously, you get those drums banging and all hell breaks loose.
Scatman.
“There’s a motherfuckin spider on your head”
Crap, there are now two bens on this board. One of us is going to have to bend…
4th pick: Theme Music to the Pink Panther. I’m going to get the job done – but I may not look pretty doing it. Kill ‘em with laughter, I say.
Peanut Butter Jelly Time – there’s even a baseball reference.
1) Painkiller- Judas Priest
ODB – Got Your Money
My sad attempt to keep it real.
Late, but:
“Follow the Leader” by Eric B. and Rakim.
…And I win.
The siren sound from “Kill Bill,” leading into “The Truth” by Beanie Siegel.
Because if it’s good enough for a wrestler named “Homicide,” it’s good enough for me.
Long time reader, first time drafter, but I had to chime in…With pick #423:
Shimmy Shimmy Ya
-ODB
I’m wasting office time I should be spending productively so as to not work much on Monday. My final pick is “Time 4 Sum Aktion” by Redman, best known as Mike Tyson’s music for awhile, also deftly used by an astute producer on The Simpsons as Drederick Tatum’s music as he steps into the ring against Homer.
Respect due to the guy who picked “I’m Destructive.” That’s definitely on my short list. Nothing like Kool Keith talking about mating baboons with buffalo…wings?
Vaughn’s Bar: It’s Mo-Tastic!
goldfinger’s “donut dan.”
the end, bitches.
The Power Rangers theme song.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=PfV5K6J2xSk
I’m pretty sure that the Power Rangers were used to subliminally addict legions of young children to metal… not that there’s a problem with that.
I’ll go with the “Staying Alive” remake by Wyclef. If you aren’t feeling that song, I don’t know what to tell you.
“Ballroom Blitz” by Sweet
Almost 2:30am Friday night/Saturday morning in Hong Kong and I’m finally about to get out of work… thankfully the bars are closeby, and one of them is having a caipirinha (drink made from a Brazilian liquor called cachaca) special.
With my last pick, I’ll take “Pain or Pleasure” by Sum 41. Yes, Sum 41 blows, but this song was actually pretty good. My final lineup:
1. “Swordsman” by GZA
2. “Smells Like Teen Spirit” by Nirvana
3. Bret the Hitman Hart’s original WWF theme music
4. “Till I Collapse” by Eminem featuring Nate Dogg
5. “Engel” by Rammstein
6. “Whoa” by Black Rob
7. “Holla If Ya Hear Me” by 2Pac
8. “Eye Against Eye” by Mos Def
9. “Cradle to the Grave” by Mobb Deep
10. “We All Bleed” by Non Phixion
11. “Point of No Return” by Immortal Technique
12. “The Meaning of Life” by the Offspring
13. “Pain or Pleasure” by Sum 41
“Never Scard” – Bonecrusher
Awww shit, some mu’ fucker is getting his ass kciked now!
My bad on the picking two songs by Ludacris. Was thinking different albums, not different artists, since Area Codes was on the Rush Hour 2 soundtrack. I’ll replace it with:
Slow Motion by Juvenile. Since all the star athletes say that when they are in a zone, the game is in slow motion.
Metallica-Whiplash
“Try Again” (Adam’s Song) by Titanica
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmNApZRy3wk
Since I have so much time on hand, it’s time to start the drinking…errr weekend – same thing.
Before that – for those of you looking for part time work, you may want to review the attached story about Durex:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,288395,00.html
And for my final pick and my coming out party:
Big Gay Al – I’m Super
and that rounds out my winning eleven
@signal to noise: Canucks? pissed off? these are the same people who spraypaint “Obey the Rules” as graffiti
Fugazi’s “Waiting Room” has not been selected, it looks like.
YOINK!
shoopmonster – yeah, but you’d think the Canucks would get pissed off being repped in the U.S. musically by Celine Dion and Nickelback for so long.
I’m surprised two now often-used picks haven’t been drafted. one I’ll keep in my hat, the other I will draft: “Eminence Front” by The Who, better known as “that song with bad ass blinky blinky synthesizers and a bad-ass guitar riff” or “the one good song from the worst record the who ever released. Perfect for NBA starting lineup introductions…if only the Jordan-era Chicago Bulls had discovered it.

3rd selection: “Paint It Black” By the Rolling Stones.
Just to recap, picking at #390 forward, I’ve got:
1) Ludacris – Southern Hospitality
2) Megadeth – Symphony of Destruction
3) Rolling Stones – Paint It Black
really? You all picked some of that bullshit before these songs? Faith No More? Fall Out Boy? Really? Geez, I never talk shit during these drafts, but what the fuck…
“Welcome to the Terrordome” by Public Enemy. Perfect for scaring the shit out of whatever pitcher/batter you happen to be facing.
“Whatever” by Our Lady Peace, because Chris Benoit sure ain’t usin’ it anymore.
@signal to noise
I think it’s because they’re Canadian. Fuckin’ Canucks.
Much love for whomever took “Bring Tha Noize”. That might be the champ.
“Rocket Queen”, Guns N’ Roses
“Kickstart My Heart”, Motley Crue
“Jimmy James”, Beastie Boys
“Just One Fix”, Ministry
Time to go kick ass and chew bubble gum…and I’m all out of gum.
“I’m Destructive” by Dr. Octagon.
The whole CD is Kool Keith being a gynecologist from outer space, and this song will do.
shoopmonster – Danko Jones rocks faces clean off. How they are not absolutely huge here in the U.S. betrays logic to me.
Pantera-Fucking Hostile
“hot topic (is not punk rock)” by mc lars. left-coasters should know about this.
@signal to noise
I was hoping that somebody else knew about Danko Jones.
“The Meaning of Life” by the Offspring. Highly underrated song.
Pick #2: Megadeth – Symphony of Destruction
80s rock to go with Southern rap… nice…
