Cage Match: Kenny Loggins vs. Cinderella

Written by: Matt Wardlaw

I got an email recently, which led to the following discussion:

Dear Matt,

Remember when you used to do those funny Cage Matches every week, featuring a battle between two bands, presenting the opportunity for people to comment and make fun of your musical taste?

Sure do.

What happened?  It's been two weeks!

I dunno.  I got busy, had out-of-town visitors, left the house and did stuff in the real world - that's good, right?

I guess so.  Any plans to get back to those Cage Matches?

Funny you should mention that - I think you're going to like the following post!

I know, I know - we've been slacking here at ATV - sure there have been posts about this and that, but what about the Cage Match, man?

Let's get back to it, and start with a bit of congrats to Cage Match board member D.X. Ferris from Scene Magazine!

D.X. recently picked up a shit-ton of awards from the Ohio Society of Professional Journalists - five of them to be exact, including top placement in the category of "media criticism," and "best rock and roll feature reporting."

Hopefully you got a chance to check out the Monday Mix that D.X. served up last week, and if you didn't, you're in luck because we've decided to hold the mix over for an extra week, to recognize D.X.'s tremendous journalistic accomplishments!

Congrats!!

In honor of the above, we also decided to let D.X. pick  this week's Cage Match, and he happily sent Kenny Loggins and Cinderella over as contenders!
