Notes

1. Certain songs were left out for reasons of strategy, flow and/or fairness. For example, I left off the song "Here Comes A Regular" by the Replacements because its a bit too wistful for soundtrack purposes and because there were other 'Mats options.

2. Other songs were replaced for similar reasons. For example, the Camper cover of Black Flag's "Wasted" is serviceable, and sneakily allows for Black Flag to show up twice. Similarly, the Brazilian samba band Nouvelle Vague's version of the Dead Kennedy's "Too Drunk to F*ck" fits well between the countripolitan sounds of Haggard and Fulks.

3. This list has intentionally omitted certain songs, such as those by Jimmy Buffet or the Doors, which I just plain don't like.
