TIBBs favourite British Band: Semi Final 2
 
Semi Final 2

You vote for your 5 favourites in the poll and the 5 bands with the most votes will advance to the Grand final

The poll will remain open for a week so there's no rush to cast your votes. I have posted a song from each band below just incase you need any help. Maybe you may not be aware of some of the bands and checking them out may be helpful to you. You may come across something you enjoy and want to check out more of their work before casting your final vote. of course you can just be confident with who you're going to vote for and cast your 5 votes straight away, the choice is yours.

so this is who's in this Semi Final

No one, as the choices are pretty bad for the best brit band, but out of the rest I would have probably gone for Libertines, as they had some great tunes but they're not getting into the final from this list.

What's wrong with The Who?

I'm gonna be interested to see if you pick one tomorrow based on the song I'm gonna post for them. You know what it is, don't you?

Next poll posted around midnight.

Alf 01-08-2022 01:17 PM

All my picks are doing well so far in this poll.

Didn't really read the opening thread, so these semi-finalists are all a mystery. Have no idea what you're on about, but I look forward to trying to work it out. Unless you're on about Gerry?

Alf 01-08-2022 07:37 PM

Why haven't you voted, Arista?

Alf 01-08-2022 07:45 PM

This post is to remind me at a later date that I need to sort the mess out that Cherie made in this poll.

Gonna sit right down and talk, baramara. Under the moon love..


Go on, you know you wanna.:blush:

Crimson Dynamo 01-08-2022 07:47 PM

The Police doing well

Don't tell our BLM apologists

Alf 01-08-2022 07:54 PM

I'm noticing some tactical voters not using up their 5 votes. Trying to give their favourites the best chance.

Beso 01-08-2022 08:00 PM

Can I ask how you select who goes in each semi final Alf.

Is it random name pics via paper or digital? If at all.

I tried to separate from era's and styles. I put similar bands from eras and styles into 25 groups of five. And then randomly just choose one from each group in each poll.

Beso 01-08-2022 08:12 PM

Oh,like a seeding system.

Interesting.

Interesting.

For example.

Big 60s bands like The Beatles, The Who, The Kinks, The Rolling Stones, The Cream were all in 1 group.

Heavy metal bands like Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, Motorhead were in another group.

And so on. It didn't work out perfect like that but I did the best I can to make it random for all tastes.

Beso 01-08-2022 08:21 PM

And a fantastic job you are doing with it.


Seems so far, TIBB has very similar tastes.

Nicky91 03-08-2022 01:59 PM

out of all the polls so far, this one had been most difficult for me

Alf 07-08-2022 04:51 AM

There is less than 24 hours to go on this poll.

Get your votes in.

Voted

Alf 08-08-2022 08:43 AM

Through to the final are


Oasis - 14
The Police - 12
Duran Duran - 11
The Smiths - 8
The Who - 8

I have to take a point from Duran Duran because Cherie voted for them and then changed because she made too many votes, but they still go through with 10 votes.


Interesting fact. The five that went through to the final were the five I voted for.
