It is time once again for the TC 10. This week, some old wannabes were cleared out to make room for some premieres. Also, Blur can't hang on to the top 10. I didn't want Linkin Park, Michelle Branch, and Alkaline Trio to fall, but there's only so many spots on the countdown. Maybe they'll re-bound next week. Oh and there's 1 debut, so let's get going.

Things are looking much the same around the top half of the countdown with the exception of AFI, jumping 6 spots to #3. Which one of the wannabes would you like to see in the top 10? Let me know. Michelle Branch and Deftones retire in 2 weeks.
Unfortunately, our friend Ben, who requested every single week of the TC 10 -- all 18 of them -- will not be able to do so for the next 49 years of his vacation, until he returns home in 2052. So now I'm looking out for the rest of you guys to give me some good suggestions for the countdown. See you next week!
This week, it's the big week #20 and there are too many songs! I'm delaying the debut of Korn and 311 by passing them off as "premieres" this week. Feel free to vote for them although I don't know where it fits into the 10, haha. Meanwhile, there's no room for Metallica and Alkaline Trio, Thrice hangs on to the wannabe spot, and there are 2 debuts...
