That's been done. Is Chula taking (SB)BCP?

I meant termites. I've never been given this much responsibility.

That's up to him. I was just making a suggestion because I think he'd dig it.

$ho'nuff yes I do.

Ftfy.

I'd like to make a suggestion here, to ensure everyone gets albums listened to during "their" week. If you review an album by an artiste you're not particularly fond of, but do it anyway, then the person you do it for owes you, ie when it's "your " week they're expected to step up and help you out.

So in other words, let's say Chula does Beefheart but doesn't really want to, when he has his (say) Led Zep week, Frown (as this is basically his week even though I organised it; we all know who's the real Beefheart fan here) is obligated to listen to one, even if he doesn't like Zep. Or Rush. Or whoever.

Nobody HAS to of course; it's more a favour-being-paid-back sort of gentleman's agreement thing. I just think it would help when someone chooses an artiste not too many people are fond of, and not leave them looking for reviewers. They could "call in their markers", so to speak. No?

I also encourage this idea, but I wouldn't make it mandatory.

I'm kind of already following it by planning on reviewing that Manowar album I haven't done yet. It'll be late but I've made a promise.

I have a few in mind that I'll post up appropriately. Props to Ori and Urban for the good concept.

Oh yeah, I said that: it's not like you have to, but it's just nice if you repay the favour. I'd say most people would be happy to do that, and it might get a better spread of people reviewing who would not normally bother, with half an eye on "well when it's my week I want him/her to help me out so..."

And yes, I second the props. Well done you two. Great idea. Let's hope we can make it a regular thing.

Okay, it's Friday and we're left with three. Since Chula has not responded I'm taking it he's not interested, so you're off the hook for his Zep week I guess Frown. I'll take that one if nobody else steps up. Leaves two then, if we can fill them by Sunday.

Reviews can then begin from Monday and will be accepted in the thread, or linked to it, up to midnight Sunday.

Cool with everyone?

Oh, and nobody's done a logo yet so how's this?

Again, only a suggestion, but my "Love or Hate?" format for reviewing seems to have become quite popular, and it does make reviewing that bit easier, so if everyone wanted to adopt that for their album(s) it would certainly look tidier and give a better overall picture of what people thought, coupled with eliminating a lot of the actual work of writing an essay. Just an idea; I'm definitely going to go that route myself though.

I have no idea what you're talking about.
