Songs on my list that didn't get picked

Ole
Just breathe
Im still here
Don't gimme no lip
Outta my mind
Evacuation
Inside job
Dirty frank
Amongst the waves
Big wave
Bushleaguer
Soon forget
Supersonic
Bee girl
Gremmie outta control
Just a girl
Pry to
Red dot
Sweet lew
2000 mile blues
Stupid mop
Last kiss

Not sure if i was missing any from my list but out of those i am surprised by just breathe, im still here, evacuation and dirty frank

Then im not sure if they were eligible but lightning bolt and future days not getting picked surprised me also, well least lightning bolt

when i see what hasn't been picked and some of the shit that has, i just hate this fucking place. honestly, everyone here makes fun of the official scientology board, and rightfully so, but the too cool schtick over here has worn really thin. if this is done and these are left, can i have a 17th team? i'll take the ten in bold, and if that lineup loses to half of these teams, you can suck a bag of dicks. fuck me, can you imagine if the band turned around and instead of playing last kiss to the people behind the stage, they played acoustic #1? i'm sure the reaction here would be, "i need this boot! legendary!" and did cold confession really go with a first pick? i mean, i like the song too, but are there really not 16 other songs in the 22 year history of the band that have rooted themselves deeper over time? anyway, carry on with your underground pearl jam picks, cready stompers. or put this in quotes and put me in my place. team daft twat! make it happen, stip. i like backspacer too.

Songs on my list that didn't get picked

*list*

*big rant*

This tournament is just a bit of fun. Whatever list wins, doesn't really mean jack shit because certain songs mean different things to people, depending on what mood they're in. These lists are just down to personal tastes, and some kind of loosely fitted "strategy".

Really, for you to come in and call our lists rubbish is just poor form.

BTW, your list is rubbish.

I will gladly put my team up against your team above. Here. On the Pit. Anywhere.

[Birds in Hell]

I don't think you can draw many conclusions from what songs people chose for this, particularly given the playlist concept we're running with this time.

Evacuation, for example, is pretty much my favourite Pearl Jam song and I didn't choose it.

[Sgt. Crackpot]

OK, here's mine:

1. Education
2. Leash
3. Lukin
4. Not For You
5. I Got Shit
6. In Hiding
7. Crazy Mary
8. Foldback
9. Around The Bend
10. Santa Cruz

That's pretty awesome. What program did you use to make this?

[Jorge]

5. I Got Shit
6. In Hiding
7. Crazy Mary

9. Around The Bend
10. Santa Cruz

I'll put this together on iTunes and have a listen, but just based on what I'm seeing here I really like the flow of your playlist-- it gets progressively more frantic up to Not For You, at which point it gradually dissipates, culminating with Foldback. Around the Bend and Santa Cruz are like a sweet afterthought.

If nothing else, this exercise is making me want to listen to a bunch of songs I hadn't payed much attention to in a while.

[Jorge]

That's pretty awesome. What program did you use to make this?

I just threw them together with Audacity, this free and easy on-the-go software.

[its_not_1974]

fuck me, can you imagine if the band turned around and instead of playing last kiss to the people behind the stage, they played acoustic #1?

You're forgetting that the 'underground' think the band sucks live, currently.

Good work, man . Were we meant to all do this as part of the tournament?

[Jorge]

I don't think so, but I like doing it.

Excellent. I'm gonna take a stab at that. I've got two versions of my playlist (same order) that I've been listening to tonight, one all studio and one all live. Might be cool to arrange the live one like this.

Agreed.

Also, as far as this draft goes, the whole point was to draft songs and make a playlist out of them. As the ranks of songs became thin, you really had to consider what fit/flows with what you had picked etc. This 'Cready Stomper' picked it mainly for flow purposes not to be the "underground pearl jam" assholes you accuse of being.

Again, its just something for fun, no need to shit all over it.

[WtOB?]

1. Go
2. Grievance
3. Hitchhiker
4. Pilate
5. 1/2 Full
6. Army Reserve
7. Love Boat Captain
8. Help Help
9. Harmony
10. Present Tense

I'll throw a Jorge-style mp3 up tomorrow, I don't have my PJ stuff on me today.
(That sounded very nice btw, Jorge.)

[ilpazzo]

Here's mine:


I'm Open
Animal
Whipping
Deep
Cready Stomp
Green Disease
Untitled
Nothing as it Seems
Hard to Imagine
Love, Reign O'er me

There may be some issues with it playing... If so, I'll upload it to Soundcloud and share the link tomorrow.

Thanks man. The emotive progression was exactly my main aim for it, and I'm glad it's come across that way.
