The fact that Black Francis (no disrespect) and Faith No More () have votes, disturbs me.

[Bay 2,003]

I'm pretty shocked to see Janis Joplin losing, TBH.

[Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014]

Fuck you and your stupid fucking Elvis bullshit.

Patton's got a good voice though. Probably should've posted this instead.

LMAO surely that's a joke right?

 

Reason I said what I said for Black Francis is his opposition but he is decent to be fair.

 

Faith No More/Patton, I just don't think they/he was ever really good, at all. Their music didn't age well. And like Black Francis, his opposition is simply better but in this case its not nearly as close or even in the same ballpark.

[Vin+ 3,121]

Last call, for alcohol votes. This thing is gonna close in a couple hours (unless I forget like I did with the first matchup).

Bware lost his music elitist title.

Voting is now closed.

 

Burdon, Nicks, Matthews, and Elvis advance.
