Cool. I got hold of Griff who is away but supplied a track.
With Neige and the double entry also being resolved I can get started!

Fair enough..I'm just impatient. :)
I can see you've had a demanding time of things, but Hatz has no excuse ..sitting around in the Californian sunshine by his swimming pool, smoking pot and listening to one of his servants play the fiddle!


I'll have you know, we had light drizzle and thunder yesterday, dammit !!... :D :D

Cheers Maarts!

I've already had a quick look at the lists. Quality seems high, there is a pleasing variety of genres and a nice mix of the better known with the obscure. I'm going to enjoy this I think.

How long do we get to vote in these ties? Quite a few need investigation.

You're too kind-hearted Maarts! Dock them some points for late entry! :evil:


I know I always do.

Early indications are good..some still aren't bothering of course.

It is, isn't it.

I plan on criticizing like I'm pinning my little brother down by the shoulders and letting my spit slowly drip and dangle before it hits him in the eye.

Good enough for ya?

Gash
Neige
Pansy Puff
Hightea
Hatz
Griff

I also need one entrant to change their opening song as it doubles up.

This effectively means I can't start tonight.
If any of you at least give me an opening track and send me the rest later this week, then I can get this show on the road.


sorry didn't realize you were australia,
my list is in PMed

Greatly enjoyed Round I.

The absolute stellar selection has been that Frankie Valli. Being too young * cough*, not Northern, and lacking soul, it's new to me and I can't stop listening to it. Whoever picked it has my most earnest and eternal love.
