B
Let U be the set of all united sets, K be the set of the kids and D be the set of things divided.
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

I got time for both of these bands, and also don't feel like one is necessarily obscure enough to warrant docking points to the other (you could make the argument that A's looking a little deeper into the Ramones' catalogue than B is Zep's but, eh). Today though, I do feel A does a little more for me.

A's a bit rubbish. So's B, but slightly less so

That’s a pretty bizarre pick from the Ramones, it’s very clearly (to me) fuller, not killer. Anyway, for She’s Crafty, it’s

A - The worst of the CBGB bands saw them once then always stayed home. I do think they were fun and had their moments but this isn't one of them.

B- What is worse then the Ramones song? The Ocean live - What is with Plant's shirt did he shrink it to doll size. Ugh the Page smirks like on the coolest guy around with the classic star pants and opened shirt. The beginning of the crap rock. What is with the jam at 3:23 it doesn't go with the song?

Ugh A
