Jones and Keith here on WEI, the official March Madness bracket, whoo, 300 and I don't even know how many days, 60 days in the works.

Is up and available at Jones and Keith on Twitter and Instagram, give those a follow, you can vote there. We're starting with four matchups today. We're going to be done with this by the end of March. This doesn't go to April. No, it's 64 teams. This is linger. And if you miss the bracket, we've set it a handful of times today. It rolls right off the tongue. It's the Jones and Keith 1990s slash early 2000s heavy metal, new metal grunge alternative pop punk butt rock rock bands. And it is in bracket form. You can still vote in our first matchup. It'll be available for 24 hours. Number one seed corn has an early lead against number 16, our lady piece, the eight nine matchup in the Woodstock 99 region, Keith. And again, the regions are Woodstock 99 pants, Woodstock 99 Osfest grunge. And of course, grab back, grab back the eight nine matchup in the Woodstock 99 region live. Now that Jones and Keith go vote. Number eight, Bush number nine counting crows. I wish counting crows. Based on the seating, you're voting for Bush. That's how I voted. I don't want to influence people out there. Should we say I did we voted for I did. I don't know if I'll always go with the under seat because sometimes there was like,

I was wrestling with it. It might be a band that I don't love as much, but I know they're super popular. So they may have gotten a higher seed. So I may still vote for the lower seed. But I thought this was a pretty even matchup right out of the shoot. Winner has to take on corn and all likely. That's a good luck. But yeah, Bush counting crows. Nothing says middle school like Bush and counting crows. Some say don't overthink the eight nine matchup because you're going to get steamrolled by the one seat eventually. I never know. When I fill out my bracket, that's that's my belief. I don't spend a lot of time on my real bracket. Thinking about eight versus nine. And yes, on this show, we celebrate. I don't I don't like people that shame filling out your bracket. I like filling out a bracket. It's a great American tradition. It's fun to do. I do it every year. The blast people who have people who don't enjoy that don't like having any fun. A bracket's fun. Brackets the best never mind betting on top of it. You can do side bats. You can do regular. Whatever you want to do. But I don't spend a lot of I don't spend a lot of time on the eight nine matchup. But this one you should go though. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Your one seats. Uh-uh. As we mentioned in Woodstock 99, uh-uh, the one seat in that region corn as they should be. They dominated Woodstock 99. Although it's Chuck pointed out, he said on Friday, the Friday

of Woodstock 99, corn went on before Bush. The Bush was the headliner on Friday. Wow. That was fast. Uh-uh. Woodstock 99. We were just talking documentaries with Tatum. Do you watch the Woodstock 99? That's not my thing about it. Then check it out. Yeah. I might give that a rip. Uh-uh. So your top seats in the Woodstock 99 region corn is the one seat. Yeah. Followed by Metallica to seed. Yeah. People are going to know how to about that. That's controversial. I know. Uh-uh. Your three seed in that region is, of course, rage against the machine. Yeah. Really good. Fourth seeded Red Hot Chili Peppers. That's Woodstock 99. Okay. Uh-uh. We have more matchups to come. Osprey, Creed, Limbisket, Live. That's all Woodstock 99. Yeah. It's a lot of good pants. Where are we going to go after we get out of Woodstock 99? Are we going to go as fast to go that way? Okay. Jump over to the other side. Your top seed in the as fast region is, of course, system of it down. Yeah. I got no problem with that. Strong seeding there. Two seed is slipknot, which Nick said should be a one seed. You could make the case. I said

it was my number one overall. I didn't say that. Oh, that is what he said. I'm sorry. I even know one thing about that. Because then you have a two seed within the whole thing. I'm not going all chalk. But yeah, you know what? I'm going to go chalk in this thing. That could be a great, elite eight game. Three seed in Osfest, Deftones. Yeah, Deftones. And the number four seed Lincoln Park. So Nick also thought they should be a one seed. He did. So that's a busy region. Loaded region. Osfest is a loaded region. That's true. That might be the toughest region. Yeah. Last year, what were we saying? It was probably probably that baseball region. I feel like I had some good uniforms last year. Yeah. No, no, no, it was hockey. Hockey, definitely. I chose the most loaded region. You're right. This year, Osfest looks like a loaded bracket or loaded region rather. I agree. Grunge. You of course have number one seed in Nervana. Yeah. Number two sound garden. I'd quibble with that. Well, let the votes speak for themselves. Number three Pearl Jam. We got some tweets that Pearl Jam has a three is a travesty. It's a guideline. And number four, Alison Chains. I'd say those are definitely the top four grunge bands. That's the grunge region. Say it again over STP. I'd them as a six. They make a little run. Good continuing matchups. STP. They got a project. That's like around. You have

food fighters. Then STP. You call. And then over in the grab bag region top seed green day. Love green day followed by second seeded nine inch nails. Number three seed is, God, this is hard to read. Like 182. And number four is the smashing pumpkins. Wow. Over in the grab bag region, which we're going to be good. Probably next week. Top fishing key levels of can't read a screen. Now, this is particularly small. I thought the font was good. I wasn't properly zoomed in. If you really zoom in, you can read very well, but I was not properly take your, take your fingers and pinch and zoom. You're going to stretch it on your phone and you can read it right in there. So go vote. We have our second matchup live at Jones and Keith on Twitter and Instagram. Follow those. If you haven't already, that'll be busy all month long. Plus give Keith a follow-up, Keith 21. And at Jones, W.E. I were brought to by Avalino's restaurant. If you're planning a corporate meeting or a private party, book their beautiful and spacious function room for up to a hundred guests, go Avalino's dot com. Let's get to the phones here. Kelly and Amherst wants to talk

about Neumia's Kada. Go ahead, Kelly. Hey, guys, I love the bracket to a quick sick brag. I saw literally like 90% of those bands live back in the 90s. Just throwing it out there. What's like 99? I don't worry about us. Which one were you at? That's a, that's a good call. You know, I was at it. It's called the HF festival down in DC. And every year, they would have 20 bands for like 20 bucks. So you could just crawl. You could check like every box green day stood out is probably the best of that group that I saw live. Never saw a nine-inch nails or Nirvana. But listen, the minute when they signed Voo Savage, that's how Reggie Miller pronounces it. At that time, I wasn't really into Voo Savage or whatever. But as soon as I saw him play, I realized he was real good with Derek White, a little bit off his usual. Everybody loves Derek White thing. I'd say clearly Voo Savage is the second best player in the team. He wasn't last night. But I like the thing. You think the second best player on the team? 100% if Derek White can get back to the greatest non-all star in the history of the NBA

status, then yeah, he'll be number two again. But until Tatum comes back, I think Voo Savage is the number two in the team. Cato was amazing last night. Springtime is almost here.

one thing. When they picked up Vucevich, it said to me, Tatum is not coming back. They want a number four to take us all the way. Said the absolute opposite to me. When they move pritchard to the bench and then keep pritchard in the starting lineup because they subtracted assignments. So that does tie to the Vucevich trade. I thought Tatum's coming back. Tatum's coming back. I believe he disagrees. We'll see who's right. Yeah. I keep bringing Vucevich off the bench and starting Cater. Yeah, Cater's been too good. I was in Vucevich. If you just look at the resumes with everybody that's healthy right now, he probably has the second best career, but with everybody who's healthy, with the healthy guys, Jaylin Brown is the only one I would say has probably been better, but right now, dark whites better. Obviously, Peyton Pritchard's probably better, but I like Vucevich. It's been a good addition of the team. When they get Tatum back in my mind, when they get him back, you put him into the lineup for shirements. You can keep sort of like the top bench guys still on the bench. It's actually, it's, I think, Mizzoul's been preparing for this for a little while. Obviously, he's not going to say anything. When people ask him about, he's going to stare them down and whatever else, but

as soon as they move Pritchard to the bench, that was a pretty good sign. I agree. Just leaving shirement in there now is like a holding pattern or a holy place. I think if Tatum were coming back, Pritchard would stay in the starting. Probably. And I think that was the real test. Especially after getting rid of Simon. I agree. Twitch chat, by the way, is saying, this is the Jones and Keith Boomer moment where now thinking music is really cool from 26 years ago. Is this our Boomer moment? It could be. I would say, though, it is making it come back. Yeah. All the late 90s bands. It's all cyclical. It's all trends are all cyclical, next. So I can see that. Short shorts, baggy shorts, short shorts, again, baggy shorts, again, I can't keep them. I should have held onto my jinko jeans. This is what I should have done. So there you go. Go vote at Jones and Keith. The Jones and Keith 1990 slash early 2000s, heavy metal, new metal grunge, alternative poppunk, butt rock and rock bands. We have two matchups live two more today before the days out. Go vote again at Jones and Keith.
