Mate, you like British Sea Power, the members of which look like their mothers dress them, blind folded, in the dark.

My mate has been dressed as a bear on stage with British Sea Power twice. Fell off stage both times, broke his leg once.

Haha.  I wouldn't be able to pick any of them out in a line up that's for sure!

Knopfler is a great, inventive guitarist, but I can't listen to Dire Straights without an image of 90s Jeremy Clarkson in my head.

Travis? Fuck me. Can we not with this homogenised 2000s indie shite? 

 

These tournaments need agreed upon listings with seedings and brackets.

I’m not sure how well known it is but the Killers have done a really good version of Romeo and Juliet if that’s your sort of thing.

Hmmm... I recommend you go listen to Pile Driver, Hello!, On the Level,Blue or You,  Quo and Live (at the Glasgow Apollo). Absolutely nothing Pop about those albums at all.  It's bit like saying Queen were a pop band because of their 80's output.  

As for Quo being Teetotal?? WTF?!?!?!?!? 

 

If you don't like them as a band, fair do's. No one likes exactly the same thing as someone else, world would be boring but maybe do a little research before you call them a pop band.  

I'm not going to listen to albums of a band I don't like but most of Quo's hits were pop songs whether you agree or not. They were rock for people who didn't like it too loud or heavy. I'm not into heavy stuff at all apart from a song or two but Status Quo were just not that genre no matter how hard they tried.

What are brackets?

 

By the time everyone had agreed who to include, most will have lost interest.

A group from Nigeria, my ex liked them a lot.
