13. Play something by an artist that would disagree with yesterday’s artist about something.
Pete enjoyed seeing for miles to keep tabs on his love life. Etta had rather go blind...
Etta James - Your Good Thing Live At Tipitina's

Day 13 Play something by an artist that would disagree with yesterday’s artist about something.
Dead Kennedys "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables" - I'm sure the Dead Kennedys would be thoroughly offended by the offense name of yesterday's band, Holy Fuck, disgusting! Pearls clutched!

Day 12: Less Popular
Prophets of Rage - The Party’s Over
A supergroup that includes the non-vocal members of RATM & Audioslave that’s neither as popular or as good as those other groups.

Day 13: Disagree
The Notorious B.I.G. - “Mo Money Mo Problems” (feat. Puff Daddy & Mase)
Gangsta Rap, for the most part, is very pro-capital which clashes a bit with the socialist/anti-capitalist views the Prophets & RATM espouse on their songs.

The Cure - Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me
I actually know very little about Sarah Neufeld other than her music, so I'm really reaching here, but I can say that the way she uses her violin and the way strings have been used on Cure albums are very different, so maybe a collaboration would lead to some disagreement there?

14. Play an album by a band or artist you would like to see open for yesterday’s at a concert.
Bette Smith would make a smokin' opener for Etta...

DC Gore "All These Things" (2022 Double Six)
Here's one from 2022 that I enjoy quite a lot and flew under the radar. DC Gore owes a clear debt to 80's synthpop and new romantic vocalists and would be great openers for Depeche Mode.

15. Play a song or album that could be the theme song to an imaginary TV show whose soundtrack would also feature yesterday’s artist.
New Order "Power Corruption And Lies" (1983 Factory Canadian pressing)
Age Of Consent sounds like it could be the theme song to a TV show of the same name. The soundtrack could definitely also feature DC Gore, since they are clearly influenced by bands like New Order. It all fits.

Day 12. Play an album that was not as popular as yesterday’s pick.
Times New Viking - Rip It Off
Popularity is obviously a bit subjective so I went by the “Want/Have” totals in Discogs, and by a decent amount 135/756 vs. Squarepusher’s 289/1.9K Rip It Off is decidedly less popular.

Day 14: Concert Opener
and…
Day 15: TV Theme
Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt
and…
Nas - Illmatic
Jay-Z was just coming up in the last year of Biggie’s life and they’d even done a couple of songs together. Idk if they ever performed together, but that’d be a great show.
Reasonable Doubt and Illmatic likely would’ve soundtracked a coming-of-age Wonder Years-type show about growing up in NYC in the mid-90s, and I would’ve chosen this as the theme song:

Day 13. Play something by an artist that would disagree with yesterday’s artist about something.
Steely Dan - Can’t Buy A Thrill
I think it’s probably reasonable to assume that Donald Fagen and Walter Becker might disagree with Times New Viking regarding the importance of audio fidelity in regards to the album recording process.

Tonstartssbandht - Petunia
Tonstartssbandht is possibly the worst band name ever. It’s hard to spell and pronounce that being said their brand of chill indie infused rock music would get the crowd appropriately vibing before Steely Dan comes out and gently rocks the audience socks the rest of the way off.

Drugdealer - Hiding In Plain Sight
pretty much this entire albums feels like a collection of 70s sitcoms theme songs. It would also sit nicely alongside a Tonstartssbandht song on the show’s soundtrack without anyone batting an eye.
