It sounds like a bad Aerosmith knockoff.

I really like About A Fool though. Good pick with that one.
:thumbsup: I really like both About A Fool and Heed the Water Whisperer. The latter is just so odd, what album was it an outtake from? Sounds like it could have worked on Tiny Music.

Ah, that makes sense too.

4 and Shangri-La were both pleasant surprises for me. Didn't know either too well before the tournament, now I know 'em a little better.

I think I misread your post, I thought you meant About A Fool. The outtakes in this tourney were from:

About A Fool - Shangri-La
Samba Nova - Shangri-La
You Can't Drive Me Away - 4
Heed The Water Whisperer - 4
Learning To Drive - 4

I totally missed that. Excellent choice. I was going back and forth on it.

Thanks. I like Press Play a lot too, but that one definitely seems more like an intro.

Re: Pick a song and sing: The STP tourney. Voting Starts Soo

So here's the deal: A 12 team bracket will whittle down to three teams. This is why I didn't want to have a bracket that wasn't divisible by 4.

I propose this:

We have 12 rounds of voting, but it's Survivor style. For the next 12 days, we discuss, debate and vote via poll (I would need polling powers or a pollster to set this up.) Last team standing wins.

Or, we could whittle down to three teams and then do survivor style voting for those last three.

Thoughts?

That’s what makes a tournament like this interesting. :)

Plan A: Vote a team off the island for each round.

Plan B: Bracket style face off (randomized of course) for two rounds, until there are three left. Then spend the last rounds voting two of those three teams off the island.

Why wouldn’t we just do 1v1 matchups?

I'd vote for Plan A if it we had enough voters. Seems like a neat twist on this type of tournament. But, I'm not sure there'd be enough people voting to make it work.
