Friday and the Random 10 (Halloween Edition)

Okay so I have been trying to decide what I wanted to do special for the Halloween version of the Random 10. My first thought was to expand it to thirteen for all the triskaidecaphobics out there. Then I realized that I reserve that for the Friday the 13th's that roll around occasionally. 

My only other option (since it is the last day of October) was to just go ahead and hit everyone with 31 songs. Consider it a giant grab bag of candy. I am sure everyone will find something that they like.

Looking back at last week, I see that everyone was set free from Exile Island. Cool. And as usual the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ at the top.

So I was waiting to the very end to see if I was actually going to apply the rules for being banned, since I didn't want to "overcrowd" the island. I will stick with it though so banned for next week are: Yes, Return to Forever, and Rick Wakeman (shocker).

As I put the finishing touches on this post, I became aware that this is also the 100th edition of the Random 10! You can take a look back at the very first one (June 10th, 2011) to see how it all started! And reading that myself I can see that it didn't actually start here, but was a carry over from MySpace! Oh my. Now that is scary!

Have a happy and safe Halloween everyone!

Play us out ELO!
