The LeBrain Train: 2000 Words or More with Mike & Friends
Episode 99 – Top Ballads…Remastered
On July 3 2020, we did the Nigel Tufnel Top Ten Ballads on the LeBrain Train with six sets of lists. And it was great! We had lists from Meat, Harrison, Holen, Darr, and Len Labelle. Unfortunately due to Facebook Live and a bad internet connection, I find this show impossible to watch today. Harrison and I have been trying to talk Meat into doing a “remastered” version of the show in the new Cinco De Listo format for a long time, and we finally twisted his arm. The new panel tonight:
- Yours truly (LeBrain)
- Harrison (Mad Metal Man)
- Eric (Uncle Meat)
- Robert Daniels (Visions In Sound)
- John T. Snow (2Loud2OldMusic)
- and “X”
“X”? That’s right. This week’s show is not just a list show. There will be a sixth panel member, and that member’s voice and likeness will be obscured for the whole countdown. It will be up to the others to figure out who “X” is, and they have five songs with which to do it.
I love a mystery and I’m really looking forward to this! Tune in tonight for six lists of awesome ballads, and a little Friday evening mystery too. Where’s Mulder when you need him?
Friday February 25, 7:00 PM E.S.T. on YouTube, Facebook and also Facebook!

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to watch this one live, but I will watch it sometime this weekend! A ballad show and it doesn’t have to be rock ballads? What a cool show idea! Good luck to everyone participating in this week’s show!

Some of us might have zero rock ballads! It’s a shame you cannot watch and try to guess who X is.

I’m bummed about not being there because I have someone in mind, but I’ll have to wait and see when I watch it later.

Whether you guess right or wrong, X will reveal themselves live on the show tonight so get ready!

Then my guess is probably wrong then.

We shall find out! I think we will wait until the end of the countdown to guess. When we have all guessed, X will no longer be obscured and we will see their real face!

Looks like you’re playing an Ab5 chord. If you strum all six then it would be an Abmmaj7add#5. Well hello Mr. Jazz Man.

According to Tee Bone:
I’m in suspense to find out what Ballad you were playing in G# minor in the pic. It’s the second saddest of all keys. Must have been “Lick my Love Pump- Again” 🤣

G#=Ab. The same note. It would be a G#/Abm if you were barring the chord, but it doesn’t look like you are.

I was barring the chord. So that would make you correct.
