HERE'S THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH!!!
After 62 matches the final two left standing are a bit of a surprise to me, being that they are both from the very beginnings of Rock n Roll in the 1950s. There is an arguement for many other songs to be here other than these, but somehow it seems fitting that two of the founding fathers should face off for the title.
So here goes-
Johnny B. Goode – Chuck Berry
vs.
Jailhouse Rock – Elvis Presley
Thank you for making this so much fun!

It's certainly fitting that two of the innovaters of modern music should face off like this, but the King will win out! (Trust me if you'd seen the Elvis shrine that is my Kitchen you'd understand)
Uh-huh-huh, thang yer vera mush baby!

My vote goes to Jailhouse Rock.

Thanks for playing along, Elroy.
Hey any idea what happen to BusterBone?
Assuming just because you're in the same country
that you'd keep tabs on him.
I caught pictures of you at an Aussie meet.
Was it any fun, to get together?
St. Broelan and I are in the early stages of a mid-west U.S. meet plan.

Still the "King" after all these years!
It's been posted on the tournament page. But RL has gotten in the way of me contacting everyone who participated. I want to thank each and everyone of you from the bottom of the "Diamonds on the souls of my shoes" to the top of my "Bang your Head"!!!
Thanks so much!
What's that Harvey? Oh he says Elvis has left the building.
