Sorry for the double post, but I just looked at the calendar and it shows today (12th of April) is our host's birthday. I've no idea if it's true or not, but just in case:

Happy Birthday Bolsters!



This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

Happy Birthday Bolsters!
A birthday star for you.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Thanks everyone. :tup


Right... but does the "pearl" star for ranking 1st in a given category come with any additional point(s)?  I don't recall knowing definitively if that's the case, or if it's just a star for pride or ego.
The coal star is the only one that has no point value. Pearl stars are indeed worth something.

Alright, everyone is in. I'll begin listening tomorrow. In the meantime, here is the first blurred image.



Also, these are the bonus stars being awarded in the round. There's just two this time: One sapphire star and the first garnet star.

I was actually thinking of sending Mark Knopfler again but now it's not an option. Tomislav (I'm sure it was you and not ToN), I hope you get coal star for this. :lol

 :lol I wish. That was probably my least favorite from the songs you sent me, it would be more likely for me to send Pictured Within.

No, the one I sent is Clenching a Big Fist - Haken Sucks, the fifth

First one is Lance King perhaps - gotta bet on Brent for that gonna guess it's Jon now
Unless he sent Mattador - Tired... and thus the Sapphire star

Yes, I took big risk with this one :lol but great melodies + folk intrumental and Bolsters might like it. Also, it qualifies for world music star :tup

I thought for a moment that I saw Faith No More in there too.... but it starts with "Fo" by the looks of things.

Below that one... The Cure?  The Cult?

I think bonus points should be awarded for the most correct guesses!   ;D

I did actually have ideas for a few other stars in mind, one of which I even made but ultimately decided to cut because I thought it made the roulette a bit convoluted. But I can assure you that this was not one of them. ::)

Alright, here's my take...

Lance Thrust - No Sex, Pa
Mark Knopfler - Border Reiver
Segregation - Humility
Bent Knee - In God We Trust
Closure in Moscow - Happy Song
Defeater - Slain
Mattador - Tired
Foster The Orphan - Paganini
The Fuck - Kingkong
Roach Gets In - Lust Comes at Dawn
