There's no way that you guys could ban all the country artists I like. I know plenty of country artists most of you probably haven't even heard of, but the rest of you may not want to listen to them. :D

I ban Alice in Chains

Oh, God. Please don't join.

Most of the non-country artists I listen to have already been listed here as banned. If you guys ban all the non-country artists I know, then I won't have any choice but to use a country music list. :shrug:

But I'll do my best to try to include at least a few non-country songs. :)

This was kind of my point. You can ban 100 artists, but would we want to hear any of them?

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

This tournament won't do much because there's still a lot of horrendous music that can be nominated. I'm even thinking about making all of my nominations as horrifying as possible, just to torture everyone. Swan says he plays that way.

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

When did I say that? If I did, i was joking. I said I nominate songs to get people to listen to my music - but I genuinely find it good. That's opposed to just nominating hits that I don't care about.

Although I love Autechre, I probably wouldn't nominate them, because no one would like them.

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

You said you like forcing people to listen to music they may not like. Something like that.

I believe the exact quote was "I like forcing people to listen to my music," which I said jokingly, but also in response to nominating just hits. I want to show off my musical taste, whether people like it or not. It's good to me.

You guys never want to hear any of my nominations. Why should this tournament be any different? :shrug:

I don't play to win. I just play to have fun, and hopefully find some new artists and/or songs that I like.

These tournaments aren't meant to be fun. They are serious business.

:D

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

I can't decide who else to ban!

You actually don't nominate really bad songs. I just didn't want a bunch of country again because you nominated a lot of country in the current She-Bop Song Tournament.

It's Swan that nominates stuff that I can't stand.

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

Right back at ya.

But you're rooting for Bjork. That's my nomination.

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

Fair point.

Re: Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament
 

Madonna shouldn't be banned. Madonna never comes close to winning.

Nope. These tournaments are meant to be fun. If this was business, we would have to pay to play, and there would be a real prize for winning.

My banned list-

Black Sabbath
Bob Dylan
Bob Seger
Donovan
Elvis Presley
Eric Clapton
Jimi Hendrix
Neil Young
The Rolling Stones
The Who
