Tough!  |

Can we start a Steeleye one on the other board?
Feel free Ollie but somebody else will have to take it on as I know nothing about Steeleye Span. See here - http://www.talkawhile.co.uk/yabbse/index.php?topic=35271.0 |

Again, what he said! As for Sweet Talker, not really but there are two or three good songs on there and two nice instrumentals in the title track and the original version of Persuasion. |

Erm. Sorry to be a pedant but In Concert 1975 seems to have progressed despite its defeat by Daring Adventures whilst the triumphant Guitar Vocal has been inadvertently eliminated.

Also Henry the Human Fly failed to make it to the next round despite easily beating Mirror Blue, whilst Industry and Strict Tempo advanced after clashing earlier. OOOOPS  Cheers Nigel |

I think what has happened is that Strict Tempo and In Concert have been included as the two lucky losers (presumably In Concert beating out Hokey Pokey on a flip of a coin as they both lost by the same score) but both Guitar Vocal and Henry The Human Fly accidentally omitted. Can they be added as the last match or do we need to redraw? Assuming the former, my votes below.

That's absolutely right. Sorry everyone. I was having IT problems last night and my broadband crashed while I was in the middle of posting the draw. It was all a bit of a trauma. The last game must have got missed off when I was re-posting. That is, however how the draw worked out. On the lucky loser issue, it was the top one from each group. Thanks for picking this up. Can everyone who hasn't done so add their vote for the last match. Mine is Guitar Vocal v Henry the Human Fly Thanks & sorry again. |
