    Hit to death in the future head, Transmissions from the satelite heart, Clouds taste metallic... then it got a bit dodgy.

    I'm sad but they've gotta go.

    I agree, I only think that would be fair to exclude them, but I'm playing along with it any way...I think it was a cool idea to post

    I didn't put them on until the very last moment cos I thought it would bias the voting.
    Then I thought it would be an interesting exercise to see how far they got.

    What do we think? In or out?

    Yeah I'll play either way, I love this kind of stuff. But I don't think there is a chance in hell that PJ would not win the whole thing here. Sorry, I kind of feel like I sound like an ass telling you how you should make your own game :oops:

    Get rid of Skynyrd. We don't need any drunks yelling FREEBIRD! during this game.

    Sure, within reason, a couple each. We're down to 90, still 26 to go before we start the series, so no messin around I guess. Get them bands struck off.

    I took off Mars Volta. You aren't a fan of that dude then?!

    Not at all man, I have a friend here that has tried and tried and tried to turn me on to both bands and I just think they are awful, I'm not just into their prog, experimental rock sound it does nothing for me
