Red Mosquito

such a good tune

I'm pretty turned on.

Is there still room? I heard 3 REM songs on the way to work this morning and I'm taking it as a sign I should be in this thing.

I'm in if there's room. Was the last one the one where we had to have one from each album? I liked that twist.

This?

Anyone else?

what are the rules? is it draft a song, for like 8 rounds, and then head to head matchup?

That's what I'm wondering as well.

Lose to philpritchard in a band song tourney once, shame on philpritchard. Lose to philpritchard in a band song tourney twice, shame on me.

OUT!

That's usually how these things go. Generally.

I'm curious to see what the more specific rules might be. Like, will there be a limit on how many songs per album you can draft? Or will there be a playlist component?

If you guys need an extra, I can do it again.

I'm thinking I might have to pull out of this - I'm only really around for a week more before I'm taking time off for wedding and honeymoon stuff

Pretty sure I got beat pretty soundly in the first round last time we had an R.E.M. tournament, if that helps.

Who gives a fuck what you did last time around. Play again, pussies.

That's right! Man up, men!

I'M IN!

Pete convinced me.

Last time people had to draft 1 song from each record plus one non album track (dead letter and chronic town did not count as albums), for a total of 16 songs. Want to do it again that way? It added ( I thought) an interesting level of drafting strategy

I'm afraid my depth of REM knowledge is too shallow for this pool.

do you know all the albums?

because if you don't, this is a great way to learn!
