The Sunday Survivor

Oriphiel · 05-18-2015, 05:22 AM

Every Sunday, someone posts a themed list, and everyone votes off the entries that they don't like. You can have as many entries as you like in your list, and the general rule is that people get one vote for every two entries (so if there are ten choices, then everyone gets five votes. If the number of entries is an odd number, then round down, so if there were seven options everyone would get three votes). You can make the theme of the list whatever you want, and it doesn't have to be music related. Whichever entry has the least votes by the time the next Sunday comes around is the survivor. This is informal as hell, so it won't be done in waves (where the list is broken down in smaller chunks that compete with each other), and don't worry if there are ties. Also, yes, I realize this isn't Sunday, but I meant to post this yesterday and forgot about it.

Wish I could round up..

Bowie, GWAR, and DEVO.

@Pet Sounds: Dale looks good in that pic! What's wrong with you?

I know, right? I didn't expect her to get axed right off the bat.

Omg the DEVO one is brilliant

Oriphiel · 05-24-2015, 06:22 AM

It looks like Elton John somehow won, being the only musician to survive unscathed! Everyone else got at least one vote, with Bowie and the crazy kiwis being tied for last place with two votes each. Now, it's time for the next round... and since there are nine choices, everyone gets four votes.

Hilarious Moments in Music

1. Little Richard (showing up high for his speech at Ottis Redding's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and spending the whole time showboating)

Spoiler for Richard!:

2. Sonic Youth (beating up Nardwuar)

Spoiler for Heh:

3. Danzig (getting knocked out)

Spoiler for Danzig!:

4. Fred Durst (trying to play a guitar solo)

Spoiler for Fred!:

5. Milli Vanilli (while lip syncing, their pa system breaks and a part from the song starts looping endlessly)

Spoiler for Milli!:

6. Marilyn Manson (throws his microphone at his drummer, sending him to the hospital, while his guitarist smashes the drum set)

Spoiler for Manson!:

7. Guns 'n Roses (Rock in Rio 2011, where Axl is out of tune and forgets all of the lyrics, their equipment rebels against them, one of the members is defeated by a star wars storm-trooper helmet, and more)

Spoiler for GNR!:

8. Mos Def (debates about nuclear weapons with Christopher Hitchens)

Spoiler for =):

9. Tom Waits (is a Blues Brother)

Spoiler for Tom!:
