[obscure]

Jen's site? 5/8?

I need that thread.... like NOW.

[lonestar]

You guys know I'm like hours behind all of you, right?  I will post results around 9:00 tonight, probably when all of you are nice and snug in bed(except cup, who doesn't know how to sleep).

You made a wrong turn. This isn't Nick's Roulette.

[jingle.boy]

Yes. We have no life, and anxiously await your verdict for the one bastion of hope for our existence - a good roulette score.

Catch ya in the morning.

[lonestar]

 

Night bud.

[obscure]

Hi there....  catch you guys later.....

[lonestar]

Allright folks, round five results, on Tuesday, PST, as promised.......


Every song this round was good, it was a tough one to judge, I had to rely on the theme to sort it out, but honestly, I liked them all.


Nekov
Angra- Fireworks
Best song I've heard in this roulette so far.  I loved it on the first listen, and that doesn't happen often for me.  Hit the theme fairly well too.     five points

King
Da Da- Beautiful Turnback Time Machine
Fun, playful song.  Good job in relating to our fogie side of things.  Was more a manifesto on why we post here than a eulogy though.     two points

DTVT
Fates Warning- We Only Say Goodbye
Good song, seems like a band I could dig.  I have heard of them, just never gave them a listen.  Covered the theme very well, especially the lyrical aspect.     four points

jingle.boy
Hardline- In the Hands of Time
Good song, loved the singers voice.  Seemed more of a love lost song as far as the theme goes.    three points

obscure
Dali's Dilemma- Memories of Yesteryear

Another good tune.  Reeking of proggy elements, especially the instrumental.  Dug the bass in the song.  Themewise, it just slipped to the side for me. three points

sigz
Streetlight Manifesto- A Moment of Silence

Fuck I was laughing my ass off.  I immediatly had a vision of a couple hundred DTFers being led by Hefdaddy, all hoisting beer mugs(except me of course) and singing our sorrows away to DTF.  The ohhhh ohhhhh ohhhh part, fucking perfect.  I imagine the song is about something a touch more revolutionary, but for me, it was perfect.    five points

PuffyPat
The Mountain Goats- Pale Green Things
Really beautiful song, the only one that made me sad about DTF's passing.  I was starting to miss the old girl all ready.  four points

cup
Wishbone Ash- Throw Down the Sword
Nice one cup, I almost wished it was heavier with that intro.  I was waiting for the power chord and it never came, but a good song nonetheless.  Themewise, it kinda hit, it made me reflect on all the battles we have here, and how in the end it doesn't matter.    three points


Standings-
Nekov-20
DTVT-17
jingle.boy-17
sigz-17
obscure-16
king-16
PuffyPat-15
cup-13

Once again, music wise, I just want to say thanks, all those songs were wonderful.  You guys are doing DTF proud!!!

Next round theme up in a bit.

[PuffyPat]

The Mountain Goats have a way of making people sad. I love them, but every time I listen to them I feel like I should be re-evaluating where I am in my life. They just have that effect.

Seriously, I hugged my laptop halfway through.

I sent a different Dali's Dilemma song in Nicks roulette.   They are also one of the Bay area bands I mentioned earlier.  You posted just in time, my Orphaned Land DVD just ended.

[obscure]

What did you get for DD?

[lonestar]

Last round kids, and King.  I just want to say a couple things first before we jump in, thank you for sharing your music and a bit of yourselves with me, I do appreciate it.  Most of the music has been off the charts, and I have a lot of music to buy in the coming days.


Last round:  Finish in style.  Must be a new song to me, no repeat bands.  I want a song that moves and rocks, a buttkicking "fuck yeah!!!" song.  Oh, and double points for double time.  That's right, songs must be a minimum eight minutes, no more than twelve.  Think Metropolis Pt.1, Yours is No Disgrace by Yes, Forgotten Sons by Marillion, One by Metallica, Freebird, Kashmir, etc. It's pretty wide open on this one folks.  Amaze me, just make it somewhat of an epic, but not a total epic(meaning in the time allotted.  Deadline is Sunday at midnight.  In the event of a tie for the lead after this round, there will be a one on one playoff between the leaders with a theme of my choosing.  Any songs sent that I have heard, I will let you know.  Good Luck.

[PuffyPat]

Are live songs off the table?

[lonestar]

Live songs are OK.

  I'm glad you liked it. It is in fact a beautiful song. I hope I can top that with the song I sent you for this round.

I hope not

[jingle.boy]

I hope not 

I concur.

RJ, in case you didn't know, Neal Schon (Journey) produced and played guitar for that Hardline album. The solo from that song is one of my favorite guitar solo's ever.

Now to find an epic for you, that will propel me past Nekov. I'm nning for ya buddy. 

This could take some listening myself.

[King Postwhore]

Kids & King.  Calling me out I see!   I will work on a great longform song for you buddy!

That was the one song from this round I did some research on.  I heard the vocals and had to know the time period, because he sounded so '80s.
