Despite the fact that TEAM ROBOT was crushed like a Pabst can at a frat party by the might claws of TEAM MONSTER, you are still deserving of a badge... Loser.

Magnificent. You deserve fifty million points for Husker Du alone. I shall retrieve my copy of Candy Apple Grey immediately! I love that you have gone for some of the not so obvious selections here, The Clash one for instance. You are right about the Stone Roses and the burden of a near perfect first record. Wonderful. I would like to be playing this mix this second!

Mixtape Potpourri I: Second Place
Way to wager it all and still come back to be second place. Uncanny!
awarded on 2006-12-30
Level 17
I only know the big names in this mix. Which is kind of normal, because I never even lived in the eighties. A friend of mine picks on me because he's from '89 and I'm a '90 kid. Anyways... nice stuff on here, I feel like checking out some songs. (like number 4)
