[Whitey McTeeth]

This thread needs more Ray Davies.

1. Dell Paxton
2. The Wolfman
3. Mr. Downtown
4. Lenny
5. Diane Dane

[Whitey McTeeth]

A good name for your band would be the Oneders, skitch.

[Norah]

The oh needers?

Did anyone let Argo know it was his turn?

Anyways, Sarge can go ahead and pick whenever he gets here now.

This is my favorite thread on RM, right now. I kinda wanted to play along when it was being set up, but I knew I'd just load my band with a bunch of relatively unknown musicians whom I love, and be the odd man out in terms of historical and cultural relevance.

I'm really enjoying watching this play out, though.

You should've still joined! Hopefully if this keeps going well we'll do it again down the road and more people will toss their hats in the ring.

This thread needs more Ray Davies.

You should've played and taken him!

Since we're winding down, any suggestions as to how long we should keep the voting for each round open? There'll be four rounds (10 -> 8 -> 4 -> 2). What's a good length of time to let enough people vote but to not make it take forever?

[Kaius]

3 days?

[Lament]

Yeah, I was thinking three days too. We can always shorten the later rounds if it turns out everyone who is voting is voting quicker than that.

[Self]

Isn't Argo's time up? I don't wanna get pushy, but let's fucking go. I'm on borrowed time, over here.

[Lament]

Yeah, Argo's time ran out at 10:23 AM, but Sarge is after him, and he has until 6:23 PM before I can jump ahead of him.

I think you should cut the time between picks down to 6 hours after round 5, and ask people to indicate when they're done so we know who to skip. If someone wants back in they can always request it.

Top choice Sarge. Nice band.

Alright. We'll cut it down to six after this round.

As far as I know, Varis is the only one finished, right?

Anyways, let me pull up my pick...

[Lament]

Jonny Greenwood.

[Lament]

I am debating calling my band complete. For the moment though, I will officially stay in the draft...

[The Argonaut]

Sorry for the hold-up, guys. My pick is on it's way.

[LetMeSleep]

Time to lay down a groove and bring this outfit into the modern day.

Questlove

[stip]

Okay, I was debating between him and one other drummer for my next pick. So I guess this is easy enough
