[LiveeviL2000]

I hope I get to do a clip tonight.
Any band that can give you a soundtrack to an Oscar worthy movie like this deserves to be locked in.
LONG LIVE SAM JONES! Down with Ming!

 

[TVvoodoo]

@ibmorjamn please go back and see how many bands you have nominated. We were allowed to name 2, nominate on first round.
Then nominate Two more the next round.

 

[TVvoodoo]

@frostyjr2 no more new band adds @dmatthews
Let's hear your Free Fallin'

 

[frostyjr2]

@frostyjr2 no more new band adds @dmatthews

OK ... it was a good excuse to work on Skin Tight anyhow.

Let's hear your Free Fallin'

Free Fallin' ? ... hmmm, how about something else from Tom Petty's oeuvre instead?

https://soundcloud.com/id%3Dfrostyjr2%252Fdont-come-around-here-no-more%3Btrack_id%3D2042027116

This one's a bit more me, i think.
Anyhow, x for Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers.

 

[ibmorjamn]

We currently have eleven bands locked in. I will form the tournament ladder once we have sixteen total

I want to make this inclusive, fun, and a little different from the normal way these all go.

So... next round nominations will be earned by dedicated TTR community challenge riffage!

You get a single choice.

Drop one famous riff in this thread of the band you next nominate, as played by YOU, to earn them another "X"

I totally missed that. Damn

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

Two good choices there. Some of Steppenwolf’s songs are more relevant now than when they were written.
Great band named after an awesome book. Magic Theater, for Madmen only.

Gd the Pusher MAN?

We now have our final 16 Top bands of the 1968-1980
Time period according to those participating on TTR.
I would like two members to volunteers for duty to help set up a ladder so that it is randomized.. any takers?

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

OMG this is up to 10 pages.

I surely can't follow the rules by now.

I will add, The Animals and Pat Travers Band

Nominate RUSH as I am sure others have mentioned my favorite guys.

Honorable mention Ted Nugent
