This is just my spin on summerbabe's great post. Maybe Sherman's March is mainstream rock domination. And R.E.M. Is the Confederate resistance at Pickett's Mill. Although the Confederacy held their ground at Pickett's Mill, they ultimately lost the war. In retrospect, the effort seems to have been futile. Many months later, another Pickett's failed charge at Gettysburg seals that fate. And yet, Pickett's Mill still stands today as a monument to willfull resistance against the neverending march of History.
