titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted February 4, 2018 Through two drafts nobody has ever double dipped artists. That's been the honor system rather than a rule and may not be the case in the 60s. I almost guarantee I will break that in the 60s and 90s for opposite reasons. In the 60s, there are bands too deep to draft that way. Beatles, stones, etc. In the 90s, the field as a whole is shallow, so I may double dip the great artists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you mean that people will double dip in the sixties or that it may be a rule that you can't? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True...there are a few artists with a shallower pool in the 90s where Id be happy to have two songs from an artist...different songs that offer a bit different things from them.

For the same reason you mentioned, I like what we've done, but we've done it on the honor system. That said, although I don't like it, it sure would make my life easier in the 90s draft.

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted February 4, 2018 Maybe you can take two songs, but one has to be an album cut (non-single)? Would also open things up for people to pick songs that are off other people's radars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have chosen not to thus far, but like I say, may choose otherwise in the future. I almost chose gold dust woman as my second Fleetwood Mac song and also thought about fool in the rain or dyer maker for a second Zep song. I chose not to, as I had bands like the doors, the Beatles, etc. I hadnt taken at all. In hindsight, I shouldnt have taken stairway in the first. Wish I had taken bohemian raphsody at #2, and picked up one of the aforementioned zep songs late. Would have been better that way. I will draft accordingly in the 60s and let the big deep bands fall a while. The difference between the #1 Beatles song and the #6 means little. Now in the 90s I have a song I really want in the first. Hope I get a high enough pick to land it. I figure it will take top 5. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If someone thinks 5 Beatles songs are the best five songs of the sixties, go for it. Let the voters sort it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Secret Asian Man 26 Posted February 4, 2018 I love 90s rock.

I think the vote will be even more meaningless after this draft as the volume of songs being picked with 18 (and counting) people means voters aren't going to know sh*t about half the songs anyway.

Secret Asian Man 26 Posted February 4, 2018 ame="Secret Asian Man" post="6149791" timestamp="1517765595"] We leave the bs from the board out of it.

mobb_deep 917 Posted February 4, 2018 Isn't that true of all the music across the board though? Not sure I understand? Are you saying the 80s was the best decade for music, or bands that released music in both the 80s and 90s made their best music in the 80s? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just focking with ya. 90s were a frustrating decade for music for me, others surely disagree. It's all subjective. In trth, I can think of some songs that a couple of bands released in the 90s that were better than the best song put ou in the 80s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
