5 so far. I lean towards more rounds/longer draft because it means we will be digging deeper into the the treasure chest that is hair rock. I will leave this open for a few days, but if there is only a handful of us, I say go 25 rounds.

Ah fock it. This draft is right up my alley. Sign me up.

I wanted to hold out until I got a better definition of "hair band" but I don't know that it'll be coming. I won't miss out on the fun by being an obstinate idiot.

Sometimes I'm in the mood for Michael Bolton, sometimes I'm in the mood for Metallica. You get a lot of hair with both acts but IMO, neither are hair bands. I intend to use my own tight inner compass of what a hair band is, and meanwhile won't make waves and won't b*tch about anybody else's selection.

I hope draft order gets selected randomly.

Random draft for sure. One of you guys can plug it into one of those generator things and post the results.

Things to discuss:

1) Which bands are hair bands? The lines can get blurry around pop, metal, punk etc...

2) is it only songs released during the 80s? The genre lasted from the late 70s into the early 90s, are we excluding those songs?

3) Are we doing 15 rounds and one song per year as bostonlager laid out?

4) Is there a cap on how many songs we can take by each artist? 

-----

1) This is a pretty good list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_glam_metal_bands_and_artists

2) I'd like to open the catalog to all songs by those groups/individuals even if outside the 80s decade

3) I prefer even numbers in a snake draft. Maybe 16

4) Maybe no more than 2 per band

1, The list you provided (excluding a couple) and the list SUX linked look pretty good. Alice N Chains, Pantera, Ozzy Osburne, and Ugly Kid Joe are not hair. I'm okay with all the rest from the wiki link or don't know them. 

2. We will have a requirement from 80 to 89. Songs in the previous or latter decade will need to be one of you wildcards

3. For an even snake we can do 16 rounds and add one more wildcard

4. Doesn't matter to me. 2 cap works.

@edjr Would you be so kind as to give us a random draft order with the names above and add yourself if you want to play?

 

Thank you,

I’m slow. What are we drafting - whole bands ? It’s gotta be songs by hair bands. Right ? I didn’t read the whole thread but the subject threw me off.

You didn't need the whole thread to know that, just two sentences into the first post.

Sixteen songs

1 for each year from 1980-89 plus six more from any year. "Any year" include songs before or after the 80s so the entire genre is available. Max two songs per band.

These bands qualify https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_glam_metal_bands_and_artists minus Alice N Chains, Pantera, Ozzy Osburne, and Ugly Kid Joe

When you draft put either the year or wildcard so I know where to put it on your scorecard. :thumbsup:
