    Semi-Final 2

    Which means that the First Semi Final has been decided!

    Unfortunately for Shed Seven ( @Marty McFly ) has just come up short. However, will be joining the Jury and will help to determine the winner of BotB XIV

    As for the Second Semi-Final, it all comes down to the very last vote to be revealed.

    Who will it be?​

    Congratulations to The Stone Roses!

    Which means, despite a valiant effort and a personal best BotB performance, The Jam have narrowly missed out on the Final, and that ( @Drakhan ) heads to the Jury.​

    Thought Stone Roses song was far better.

    BotB XIV Final

    And then there were two!

    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Congratulations to both The Stone Roses and Paul Simon


    These 2 have reached the point that 15 set off in pursuit of. Now there is one last chance for each of these artists to press their claim to the Jury as to why they should earn the Jury vote.

    Songs


    As with each Final, there will be 3 songs by each artist required for the Final.

    1 MUST be from the nominated album used throughout this Competition.

    The other 2 songs need to have been released independantly of each other also. Either on different albums, EP's, Soundtracks or Single releases.

    Best of Luck to our two Finalists.

    I will probably vote based on the song from the Album and ignore the other 2 tracks.

    BotB XIV Final


    [​IMG][​IMG]

    There are 13 Jury votes up for grabs.

    Now the way I was going to do the Final was to make it 3 points for each Juror to award, based on the 3 songs on offer. Can award these how you see fit, 1 per song, overall, head to head, or all the points just for the song from the album, however each individual Juror choses.

    But with me being part of all this, I am perhaps going to pass the responsibility for this.

    As such, are there any volunteers from the Jury who would be willing to collect and tally the votes?
