All right, folks: vote for Self Help & Georgia Satellites in this round of March Second Chanceness 2025 and there just might be a sweet yodely cover of “Keep Your Hands to Yourself” in our future! marchxness.com/#/2ndround-tim…

Band names alone: Georgia Satellites: evokes fatback and the space race, twangy guitars and oversized dishes in overgrown backyards. Timbuk3: evokes a flinching revulsion to bad puns. Vote #KYHTY! x.com/marchxness/sta…

29 votes! If #GeorgiaSatellites win we'll add a dance beat to the cover. Somehow.

2 hours to play, people. If you haven't checked out March Fadness, now's the time to read two very good essays about 2 good songs and make your call. I want to hear Self Help's cover so I'm splitting my vote here.

Both of these essays absolutely rule, but if for only “…marriage. To the jing-aling guy,” I gotta give this one to Self Help. I was enjoying the atmosphere and build and then I laughed out loud.

Vote for twangy Telecasters on cavernous 80s drums, yodels on solos, the marriage of the simple and the good! Vote #GeorgiaSatellites x.com/marchxness/sta…

If we win this round of March Second Chanceness 2025, should there be slap bass on the cover?

However this plays out, feeling so fortunate to get to read so many great essays about music at March Second Chanceness 2025

The March Second Chanceness 2025 R2D2 (hey!) songs and essays are all terrific; special shout-out to @jrmcconvey & Erin Keane for reminding me that cheese is wonderful and that "wonder is another way of saying miracle."
