6. 'Tonignt's the Night' is another good

one. My vote would go to 'After the Goldrush.' Did anyone like 'Greendale'?

15. Oh man, that would be sweet...

I haven't been there in over 10 years; going to the Georgia Theatre and the Uptown Lounge would be great. And Allen's, too...

21. They were on the first "Fuel" CD compilation of Athens bands.

I can't remember the exact date, probably about 1992 or so.

23. Ok...

That was just when I left town; I'll have to rack my brain and see what comes up;)

I tell you what; when I finally get my Canada Green card and I'm able to travel w/o probems back to the US, I'll seriously see if I can swing it:)

10. "Rust Never Sleeps" was a rebirth. "American Stars & Bars" . . .

. . . was a stylistic peak.

No expert on Neil Young could answer the question objectively or, therefore, intelligently.

11. I could never pick one

Too many good tunes. I like to say Trans, just because nobody else will ever pick that one.
