Yes, his lyrics are "bad," but they're bad in an awesomely corny way.

If you don't think his lyrics would be awesome for this band, you are a bad person, go away.

Awesome camp ftw.

[cherokeesam]

Guys, Eddie Vedder is on the retired list....he was on last week's band.
But since it's only in a songwriting capacity, I'll okay it....writers in existing bands can give some of their material to other bands, just like in real life. So the "retired" rule won't apply to Songwriters.

Current:

Dio: 4
Jack Bruce: 3
Conor Oberst: 1
Eddie Vedder: 2

[a21schizoidman]

[cherokeesam]

***URGH. self-ninja'd.

Never mind....per my own rules, Songwriting ties result in a collaboration (durr).

So congrats to Dio AND Brucey!
