[Bjornebye]

Good luck.

Kasabian? Ha ha! Fuck me. 

 

Half of this is like a Shine compilation.

Headlined Glastonbury. 

 

I'm pretty sure they're better than Afro-Man 

 

 

You might have to keep winding that boring neck in.

No Adam and the Ants instantly renders this null and void.

Struggled to sleep last night. Kept trying to think of bands, not included, that would improve the list and, most importantly, undermine Stig.

 

In the end I concluded that every great cup competition provides an opportunity for minnows to have their moment in the sun. 
 

Biffy Clyro this is your time.

Like The Yardbirds, I don't think they had enough hits. The Small Faces I looked at but wanted some more modern bands in as well. Not everything great only came from the 60's, 70's and 80's. 

 

Primal Scream need to go in. I might do 64 bands fuck it. Why not 

 

I'll add

 

The Stone Roses

The Smiths

Yardbirds

The Small Faces

Motorhead

Muse

Biffy Clyro

Cream

The Animals

The The

The Damned (For Redderz) 

 

 

Add away 

The Electric Light Orchestra? Loads of hits,well regarded by Lennon himself,lead singer formed the Traveling Wilburys? You need to up your game.

[Tarwater]

XTC. XTC. XTC.

[Captain Howdy]

Talk Talk

[Vincent Vega]

Belle & Sebastian 

Super Furry Animals

Saint Etienne

Not happening. Stig has broken the internet with lousy choices.

We've actually already got to the final, it's Scouting for girls vs wet wet wet

It's what Lee quoted plus The Human League, I think?

The second choice means you've achieved the first.

[Guest]

Tight Fit? Black Lace? Def Leppard? Shawaddywaddy? Kajagoogoo? Fun Boy Three? Kid Creole and The Coconuts?

 

So many possibilities.

Most of you lot couldn't get more than 3 on Popmaster.

Don't you dare tell me who won.

[YorkshireRed]

I’m looking forward to the competition proper getting started.

Obviously the draw will be significant but I can’t see past The Rolling Stones as overall winner.

 

That’s the beauty of knockout competitions though. Any old shit sometimes wins.

Stig's music threads are like someone with 3 strands of hair trying to advise you on a haircut.

I know mate, at least I try. Keeps me entertained. I'm a glutton for punishment. Just like your mum.

They're neighbours of that gold old boyo, Llarry Blackmon of Cameo.

[Tony Moanero]

No Wham?

 

[Red_or_Dead]

Fucked if I'm reading the whole thread but there is some dross been mentioned many times over.  I bet The Move aren't on the list are they?

 

And this is going to go the same way as the sitcoms and some cunts like Muse will end up winning.

 

Do a draw after each round this time so decents bands aren't fucked off too early, some of the pairings in both sitcom polls were gash.
