World Series and World Cup of Rock and Roll

[Unchainme]

I don't know why, but I thought this would be a good idea given the diversity in countries we have on this board. The idea is simple.

We're going to do two brackets, one of the America's (Canada will be included for the sake of making a non confusing bracket, nothing personal Canucks, we know you're seperate) and of Japan and Europe.

I'm thinking for the America's we go by region.

Northeast
Northwest
West
South
Midwest
Canada

Winners of the Americans will first be determined and then will take on the Canadian winners.

And for Europe/Asia, I'm thinking

England
Scotland
Ireland
Germany
Australia
Netherlands
Japan
Portugal

Winners all advance to the next round to compete for the non-american best rock band, to take on the best rock band.

and thats pretty much going after board members. Now, how will these lists be created? By members from these areas! Thinking for example someone like FORD does the Northwest, myself, I'll do the Midwest and so on and so on. You can pick up to ten bands for any given region.

So, who all would be up for such a thing?

[Dan]

No Fucking New Zealand,WTF?

[Mr Badguy]

I`ll have some of what you`ve been smoking!

Unchainme, you probably never heard of this

World Series of Rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Series_of_Rock)

probably too young to remember (if you were even around!) when WMMS was still good!

I think Jerry Fallwell and Pope John Paul will be in your division...

[Anonymous]

I actually think this IS a very good idea.

Certainly interesting & time wasting... everything a web forum is supposed to be.

I think I might play.

Gimme some time to think up 10 Portuguese bands.

I hope more people will pick this up.

Cheers! :bottle:

I had read and heard about such a thing

my dad's girlfriend claimed she got to to see Aerosmith preform there, which I guess accoring to google was in '79?

Would be nice if that was brought back, instead of the lame country concert they put on at CBS now-a-days.

And yes, dear god, WMMS SUCKS now. Rover is a fucking tool, alongside his little assbandit sidekicks. Why the hell do I want to listen to some watered down Howard Stern wannabe drone on about some bullshit.

[Anonymous]

But you'll have to rework that list.

Scotchland, Irishland & Britland? UK, dude. Put 'em all together, the little depraved fucks. They like it.

As fer me, I think I may get a couple of Spaniard bands, so it'll be the Iberican Peninsula.

Oh, put the Deutschlanders & the Frou-french together. Just to be an arsehole. :D

Cheers! :bottle:

Are you kidding?

If I did a bracket for Hell, I'd have some of the best talent of all time. http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/teufel/d025.gif


Hottest ticket down here right now is the BeatKnacks.

John Lennon, Doug Fieger, George Harrison, & Bruce Gary. They sound so great together, you would never know they only have played together for a few weeks.

[Anonymous]

Sat, please tell me Stevie Ray, Randy Rhoads, John Bonham & Bon Scott are together in a band.

Bass player? Bah, any 16 year old will do.

I'm shitting meself just thinking about it. Just you wait 'till Desmond Childs kicks the bucket & writes 'em a hit. :)

Cheers! :bottle:
