Bump for Deep Purple and Jethro Tull

 

[TVvoodoo]

Only need six more bands to be locked in with three votes. If you have not yet voted or nominated any bands you get 2 votes on different entries, but no new bands may be added to this list.

 

[Mitch Pearrow SJMP]

Triumph gets a bump from me

 

[LiveeviL2000]

Why are Queen and the Eagles removed from the list?

 

[TVvoodoo]

@LiveeviL2000 looks like my bad in that. Missing for a long time. Cut and paste error. I'm sorry. Petty / ZZ were missing too. To try to compensate I've re-added them and given them each one x

 

[LiveeviL2000]

What’s the next step here?

 

[CoyotesGator]

What’s the next step here?

A win for the little old band from Texas?

 

[Mitch Pearrow SJMP]

What’s the next step here?

You got me.

 

[TVvoodoo]

@CoyotesGator .. is that a nomination for ZZ TOP?
Can you nominate one other band on the list please?

 

[TVvoodoo]

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"

As a point of clarification. Are we talking something in length like a “name that song” riff….. maybe a verse and chorus…. Or like Mitch just did, the complete song?

I didn’t have just the quick riff, had to post what I had.

 

[iblive]

I didn’t have just the quick riff, had to post what I had.

I have a song/vote in mind. Just wondering short riff or whole song.

And just thought of another question. Can a group get more than one vote. Like you did UFO. Can someone else do a song by UFO giving them a 2nd vote?

 

[TVvoodoo]

@iblive two verses two choruses will suffice

Mitch has locked UFO in.
I think post was clear enough..

five spots remain

Apologize. The words used were “You get a single choice.” I read that as I get one choice. Did not read that as someone else couldn’t choose the same band and do a song post.

Skin Tight, 1974
na na na na na-nah na-na-nah

... or does it have to be a riff from one of the bands already on the list?

 

[Thatbastarddon]

If it’s not too late to bump two from prior to the clip request, I’ll put one up for The Doors, and one for The Rolling Stones.

…and for a clip….
