[Ilov80s]

1.02

96 Tears - ? & The Mysterians



ETA: this qualifies as my "Q", if i got the rules right, no?

PS - for those keeping score at home (or who have one eff to give), this woulda been my #1 had i been in the "USA Dummies" top 31 countdown




@Mrs. Rannous

Hadn’t thought about the ? for Q. Great pick.

 

[PIK95]

Anyone around to take my pick that will be here all afternoon?

I'll be around till 2:30 if you want to send me your pick

 

[zamboni]

May want to regularly use the @ function to nudge the next drafter. People have different schedules/activity and may not be aware.

i already @Mrs. Rannous hours ago

 

[PIK95]

These things go nowhere on weekends typically so maybe do a soft start sooner? Just sayin...

....

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Maybe we should just start

I would like to get to 20 and start on friday. Pips invitation is on a cruise or something, but the point that these things get ironed out once we start is understood.

Pip is on land again.

 

[higgins]

@John Maddens Lunchbox i’m going to have to bow out of this. Thanks, JML

Yep, when mrs rannous says shes a night owl, she is not kidding. Never mind, we will wait.

Thats a shame. Will wait until the end of round 1 to take you off the roster.
You are welcome to change your mind if we keep going

 

[Leroy Hoard]

when mrs rannous says shes a night owl, she is not kidding.

I think she wakes up right around when Jeopardy comes on.

Nope. I record it. Mr R often works until 4 AM, so we keep a weird schedule. Will pick ASAP.

@Mrs. Rannous

Oh, brilliant! Didn't think of this for "Q", and it's one of my favorite songs.

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

@higgins can pick up until the end of round 1, but if he chooses to withdraw as advised, thats ok. I will keep him and @zamboni up until the end of round 1.
In the meantime @Eephus can pick at leisure

 

[Yo Mama]

Phew, I was on the road all day moving my son home from college. I was afraid I was going to be holding everyone up.

 

[Ilov80s]

1.03 - Mony Mony - Billy Idol

@Eephus is up.

Billy Idol seems like a very wise selection

 

[Eephus]

This is a band that was on my shortlist for the One Artist/Top 31 thread but the Apple Venus albums aren't on Spotify. One of the Dukes of the Stratosphear records is MIA as well.

I fully expect they'll get stolen at some point but Swindon's finest will remain in my unofficial playlist

1.04 XTC - This Is Pop

Look at this guy!!!

 

[krista4]

@rockaction up!

 

[Ilov80s]

@rockaction up!

I have a hunch of the artist he chooses...

 

[rockaction]

@rockaction up!

Oh wow. I was eating this questionable dinner and came up to check on this, and voila! So here we go

Forget scarcity, I'm going, in homage to k4 for the bat signal

1.06 - Big Star - O, My Soul because it's up on my Spotify, and I want to see if krista is in a thieving mood at some point. Nah, I was just listening to #1 Record last night, and even though this is off of Radio City, it jams.

Big Star - O My Soul (Official Audio)

Track taken from Radio City (1974).Shop the Big Star Collection at Craft Recordings: https://found.ee/bigstar-craft-collection-rSubscribe to Big Star's YouTu...

youtu.be

about the k4 thing

I have a hunch of the artist he chooses...

I chose them last scarcity draft and am trying not to this time, but I think I know exactly who you mean. I always pick them for letter "X" because letter "X" has like fifteen total bands.

 

[rockaction]

@Steve Tasker

You up, mang.

 

[Ilov80s]

Ok, that is not what I had predicted lol. Not even close!

 

[Ilov80s]

@Steve Tasker

You up, mang.

Haven't heard from Tasker in a minute, nice to see him back in a draft

 

[Steve Tasker]

If the band's name starts with a 100, is it an H or an O

 

[Steve Tasker]

Just kidding you can skip me, I'm playing Overwatch

 

[rockaction]

If the band's name starts with a 100, is it an H or an O

I don't know, but I know that they'll suck . LOL.

 

[rockaction]

I guess somebody should @Northern Voice , but he's probably playing Overwatch with Tasker.

 

[Yo Mama]

If the band's name starts with a 100, is it an H or an O

I guess it depends on how you say it. Is it One Hundred Aardvarks or A Hundred Aardvarks?

 

[Ilov80s]

Oh JFC Tasker

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

If the band's name starts with a 100, is it an H or an O

Find me an artist starting with 100 at the beginning and I will rule H or O depending on the format and pronunciation
As i was prompted on certain rap artists, i did some digging

You should use both of your steals just to keep him off that person’s playlist.

Perfect Crime by The Judy's. This is the full album- song starts at 16:50

Each round is in draft order, right? This isn't serpentine or anything odd, is it?

 

[Yo Mama]

Odd would be a draft that’s NOT serpentine.

 

[Eephus]

You new around here?

Nope. I'm just not sure it matters in this draft.
