Isn't that what the message board is for?

Yeah, but posted grievances normally don't make it past "I can't believe Josh Rouse didn't make it." Proper blurbs for even one or two of the barely-missed ones would be a nice touch.

There might be a way to put that together after the final list is posted. There could be a thread for it. A few people could agree to start it out, and then everybody else could add stuff.

Anyway, I could still use a few more blurb writers.

I'll volunteer. Though I havn't heard much this year.

I liked:

Nelly Furtado -- Loose
Scissor Sisters -- Tada!
Yeah Yeah Yeahs -- Roll Yr Bones
Cat Power -- The Greatest

It's up to you now, obnerites.

Last call. We're up to 19 people, and I'll be sending out the first blurb assignments by noon tomorrow (Tuesday).

Gimme TEH CLIPSE, D, you know you wanna. 8)

i'm just sayin'... if you know what's best for you - if hot chip makes the top 20, gimme hot chip or die.

If you don't, she'll break your legs, snap off your head.

I will take on any record...sound unheard.

I'm trying to hand these out now, but wouldn't you know it, my flaky internet connection is making it really difficult.

Still, everyone who volunteered should have a blurb assignment this afternoon.

Hmmm... I wonder if Hot Chip or the Clipse did make it after all...

BOOOOOOOOOO

OK, so I may not get blurb assignments out to everyone who volunteered for one today. This is partly because I'm trying to get some things uploaded, and also because I don't know what yo give to a few of you, yet. It'll happen soon, though.

What are you booing? My half-assed attempt at creating suspense?

pretty much.

hot chip or die!

So I could still use another few volunteers here. Seriously.

The more people who are willing to do this, the better it will be, and the sooner it will be done.

Am I eligible?

Sure. You know the results so just PM with whatever you want to write about (good or bad). List as many things as possible because a lot of them have already been given out.

I've given the other people their first choice (or as close as I could get) when I could so I think this is fair.

I want to write about Hot Chip!

Hey, knock yourself out. There's no way I was gonna give that to pumachik.

Nothing I like will make top 20 and I get enough flack for disliking certain bands already. But I'd be willing to write about one I haven't heard.

Has it been decided how long these should be?

Around 200-300 words seems pretty good to me.

I'll PM you tomorrow with something after I've uploaded it.
