march madness 2018 ideas

Post by stip »

What would people like to see this year. We've done almost everything.

We did a survivor style tournament once many years ago, with the winners facing off against each other. Have we done that recently?

Hmm... Have we done best of each album, then the winners (or top 2 or 3, whatever works) from each album face each other?
We'd finally get to know which song on each album RM thinks is best.

Or is that what survivor style meant?

Is that where we have a list of songs and vote for the one we want to leave?

We could do that per album and then have a face off between the survivors?

List an album. Pick 1 song. Winner advances.

Or lets do a march madness LIVE! Edition

Seriously? No love for Brad, RNDM, Three Fish? You're missing out, man.
I’m generally bored to death by PJ side projects.

We've done a worst of tournament before. The way to do it and not make it boring is to eliminate the songs most likely to win (barack around the clock, pry to, etc) so the last few rounds are fun and hard to vote on.

To do this, I'd advocate going back to a previous best of tournament and eliminate all songs that didn't survive the first round, and then find out what is the worst of the remaining songs.

I could get in on a "worst of." That could be fun. Or maybe throw in the core band's solo albums (Bayleaf, Into the Wild, Tone, etc) and see if any of those can stand with the big boys? I don't know.

Just do the one where In My Tree finally wins.
