Welcome to The TAC Anonymous Roulette v.3 Opposites AttractOK...Here we go!
Looking for 8-10 victims. I may go to 12 if there's enough interest.
This is an Elimination-Free Zone.
I'd rather close off sign ups than eliminate anyone.
Submissions:The scoring will be done anonymously. That means that I will have no idea who sent what.
I'd like you all to meet my secretary:
Please submit all songs to
Stadler and he will forward them to me.
Just send him the band names and the song names. I will be making Spotify Playlists so the only condition is that the song must be available on Spotify. This will be necessary to keep this thing on time.
Also, I'd like to keep most of the songs 8 minutes or less. Certainly under 10 minutes. Again, just want to keep this moving. If you have a 15 minute song that you really believe in, then that is fine. It just may run the risk of my ears glazing over. You may send the same band in the same round or you may send two different bands.
If a band scores LESS THAN 5 points, it may be used again by a DIFFERENT participant. But anything that scores 5 or higher will be banned during the roulette.
Each round , you will be submitting TWO songs.
So for Round 1, the theme is Night and Day. That means that one of your songs will have the word "Night" in the title, and the other will have the word "Day" in the title.
Scoring:I will group all of the "Night" songs together, and will Stack score those. Then I will take all of the "Day" songs and stack score those. Your score for the round will be the average of the two songs. Understand?
Round Themes1. Night And Day
2. Man and Woman
3. Right and Wrong
4. Sun and Moon
5. Black and White
6. Love and Hate
7. Dark and Light
8. Life and DeathAgain, for each round each song must contain one of the opposites. So for Round 2, for example, one song must contain the word "Man", in the title, and the other must contain the word "Woman" in the title. I may allow for variations, so instead of "Woman", I may allow "Lady" or "Girl". I'll cover variations at the start of each round.
The TAC Roulette Wild Card™As always, The TAC Roulette Wild Card™ is in effect. That means that once during the roulette, if you are torn between two songs, you can submit both, and I will pick the one to score that I like the most. So for example, in the first round, if you are torn between two "Night" songs, you can send both, and I'll pick the best one. But it can be used only once in the roulette.
TastesMy favorite bands are:
1A..Dream Theater
1B..Iron Maiden
1C..UFO
2..Alice Cooper
3..All Things Dio
4. Thin Lizzy
Just a quick thing on growls. I've opened up to them in the past couple of years, and I like everything I've sent in various roulettes, but growls are still a buyer beware kind of submission. Oh, I do NOT like Screamo. Female vocals are also OK, but I do not care for operatic vocals. I don't like Nightwish.
