Simple Torture wrote:Honestly, I have more fun thinking about and discussing the tough early-round matchups, so I really like this format. I will probably fade when we get to the final 16 and we're all making the same old arguments about the same top songs. But early on, this is lots of fun.

Totally agree.

Birds in Hell wrote:There's only so many really, really good Pearl Jam songs that we all more or less agree on (and I don't think the band are going to be making any more), I don't think it's surprising that the same songs end up rising to the top.

It's not as though Sweet Lew is going to cause a surprise upset.
I was waiting forever to hear that song -- "surprise upset" was a pretty accurate way of describing my response to it when I finally heard it.

The ultimate victor will be the winner of the championship round. This just helps ensure we have a more interesting run up to it.
Well, in your notes for next year, let's bring 8 songs forward to compete against this year's top eight. Then we'll have a kick ass Sweet Sixteen.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I don't do sudden death unless there is no choice or a match is holding up the tournament.

Massive thanks to Stip for running this again. There's not much I like better than pointlessly arguing about decade old PJ. It really cheers me up.
