Really have to thank you. Listening to Five Leaves Left album again right now for the about the 5th time. And there are people who think you have bad taste in music? Absurd!!!

Okay, thanks.

Congrats RP - Tom Waits is awesome . Do you like his Orphans album? And congrats to GBG too for the runner up, Dylan is awesome - favourite album, Blood on the Tracks.

This is only the second tournament I've taken part in, and I've enjoyed it a lot. Appreciate all the songs people have nominated, some interesting, some standards and some eye openers, I've taken away to listen to a lot more. I've even rediscovered stuff I'd forgotten while looking for my own noms.
Congrats to everyone taking part and most of all to Godoggo for her brilliant organisational skills

I have his entire discography on my iPod but I'm not sure I have listened to that particular album in it's entirety. If you recommend it, I will be sure to give it a good listen

This was really fun and introduced me to a lot of great music. How many of you would be up for another go-around? I know Godoggo is busy with the TV list so we'd probably need a volunteer. I might be game if nobody else is up for it, but I'd really like to just participate in another one.

I'd love another one. There was so much I forgot to nominate last time around.

You were talking about another folk tournament specifically weren't you, Skepsis? That is what I am interested in.

I would be in. I've already got another list of songs I forgot to nominate in this tourney.

No other interest? I've got a bunch of songs I'm itching to nominate.

I bet if you went ahead and started one you would get at least eight people to sign up.

My schedule has been a bit hectic the past few days, but I can usually check in here at least a few times a day. If that's okay, then I'm in.

Yeah, but I'm too lazy to actually run it.

Ah, I see. It would be far too much for me at the moment but if someone else wants to run it that has never run one before, I am available to answer any questions you may have. Hint, Hint.

Tell me if another tourney gets started.

We should do the opposite of a folk tournament - an electronic tournament.

Electronic as in techno stuff?
