Voltaire 5,321 Posted February 21, 2018 Hey I didn't "deem participants" - I organized these from the start and if you notice or remember I never wanted to leave anyone out. I wanted it to be for everyone and even took in posters that I had no idea who they were. That said yeah, I expected her to actually post herself but is it really a big deal ? Jeez what would of happened if Volty's real mom would of had MDCs team ? You'd have her whacked ? Both Volty and TEK took the time to host these drafts (as did others) - they deserve a little leeway. Now Elvis I expect Ms Bad Santa picks and pics with a candy cane in her butt. Tomorrow 3 PM deadline. Can we go back to the fun and stop being kunts /Drunk Shots end of rant I've been silent on this conversation. I had tepidly agreed with jerry in the other thread but didn't care so much to make more than that single post on it. I had only been considering having my mother advise me for my team, wondering if I wanted her to see this hole and the scumbag friends I keep. Under normal conditions I'd never want my mom up in here. This place scares away grown men, let alone 72 y/o ladies. I was leaning heavily towards 'no' and not bringing it up with her. And I still agreed with jerry slightly. When my mom was offered a team, and this wasn't my idea and I wouldn't have asked, I didn't say 'no.' Anyway, at that point I was glad TEK was thinking of her. So instead, I flipped to 'yes' and did what I could to get her onboard as I was grateful she was offered an in. I was concerned at how much she'd be posting. I'd worried it would be a TEK's Bunny type situation. Then my sister took a while, had some questions for me... ugh... so I saw this was going nowhere. But even though it didn't go anywhere. It did motivate me to write her/my sister and my brother a long, (and long overdue) email. And thanks to TEK for thinking of her. Although I was hesitant, I wasn't exactly dragged in.

ELVIS! 12 Posted February 21, 2018 How would we know? And why should we care? She basically doesn't exist, for the purpose of this draft. I know you think I'm a doosh but she is contributing nothing but taking songs. Did she not understand that part of being in this was to participate? I'm honestly asking. What do you want. For her not to play going into round 7? Fock you asswipe. I've been busting my ass on this thing and guess what? It's my focking draft and ill do what I want. Including taking picks away from dooshes that side track the draft with I didn't get my way so I'm going to whine about it, bs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 5,321 Posted February 21, 2018 Drafting a Beatles song is like drafting QBs. After the first few elite fall off the board you might as well wait til the later rounds and get a low end starter on discount, maybe follow that with a backup. My thinking was similar. But you risk the gates being opened, like TEK with Jimi and the Beatles flood occuring and the only safe spot in the flood being a yellow submarine. I would have taken Paint It Black or Proud Mary in the 3rd round if I'd not had CCR and Rolling Stones already on board. I like both those songs better than what I took. But I still focking hate the idea of taking more than one song from an artist although it seems I'm the only one that b*tches about this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like these drafts are more about the best songs rather than trying to make sure all artists are represented and each roster is diverse. I will say Im surprised that Jimi was the first artist to be doubled up here. I felt sure it would be the Beatles or Stones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,945 Posted February 21, 2018 The five-minute studio version of this song appeared on the bands 1969 debut album.But the song grew a life of its own when played live, as it became an extended jam and a major opportunity for improv and experimentation.In fact, a 22-minute live version appears on the bands famous live album. The song took up almost an entire side, so they had to make it a double album.The driving bass groove is unmistakeable.7.04 - Whipping Post - The Allman Brothers Band Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted February 21, 2018 Paint it black was #2 on the list I sent to TEK last night. I considered in my life instead of while my guitar gently weeps, but given my roster as it sits, I chose the more rock Beatles song. Crimson and clover was a great pick. I forgot about that one. On the TEK gf thing, I too was hoping for more interaction. Thought we may get a new geekette out of the thing. But its whatever, we are almost halfway through, let it go. I mean hell, Im damn near absentee too, as tek is picking all my picks, as my turn always comes in the middle of the night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shotsup 832 Posted February 21, 2018 Great pick, another song I hadn't thought of. I've seen the ABB at the Beacon Theater (practically a residencey) well over 20 times. Wasn't a fan of D Bettes leaving so didn't really continue seeing them after his departure but that being said FOCK why didn't I draft this song. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
