30 Jan 2012: It's...1983!

[Here'sToYa!]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! uber-LN The Call -- must they show up in every year they're eligible?

Aren't they from Santa Cruz? Sorry, but the Bay Area music scene kind of sucks (except for ggould, of course).

I think they are from SC, which isn't technically the Bay Area, but I understand your point somewhat. 

Just according to craigslist.

Edit: Post 1000!

Congrats, rad!

I think throughout its history, T-Cat. The best bands in the Bay Area just don't stack up well against those from many other areas. But lately, whoa . . . local heroes Cake and Smashmouth? That just gives me the heebadee jeebies.

The SF Chronicle put together a list of the top 100 bay Area bands (The Call made it). This was back in 99.  I posted it here:

The best thing about this list in sfgate is that it's not part of some lame slideshow.  It's a popular format that annoys the crap out of me.

I feel you Rod, but slide shows = multiple page views, which is what sites want to use to bump up their ad rates.

I'll second this.  Clicking 99 times just to get through a list =
