- You may suggest artists/bands to compete.
- Every Wednesday the votes will be tallied and a new round will be posted.

I suppose I won't be voting this round as I haven't heard music from either artist this week :P

*yay for not listening to current music*

Wed Apr 19, 2006 8:44 pm

I'm not voting for the same reason.

Wed Apr 19, 2006 11:18 pm

I guess I'm going to vote for The All-American Rejects. But i don't really like either of them. I want Gwen Stefani or Mariah Carey to be brought back but they had their chance.

Thu Apr 20, 2006 12:18 am

I don't know if I know anything by Andy Hunter so I'm going with The All-American Rejects. :)

Hmmm. Time to bring up the Jonathan Steingard reason again. XD

AAR! <3

Thu Apr 20, 2006 9:11 pm

I just listened to a single aong from Andy Hunter and preferred it over anything by AAR (they're just another punk-rock band to me, and, well, I don't like that style of music that much).

Thu Apr 20, 2006 11:48 pm

I love AAR right now, so I vote them.

Sat Apr 22, 2006 12:50 am

...If I said earlier rounds match gross competitors, this does take the cake. I cannot stand All American Rejects. Andy Hunter definitely does not sing my style of music.

But I guess since I didn't have to bold anything for the AAR, I'll vote for them.

Sat Apr 22, 2006 4:08 am

All-American Rejects, 'cause....I've never heard of Andy Hunter :P

Technically...Andy doesn't sing. :roflol:

She's right. The only songs I've heard him actually sing in is Lifelight, Open My Eyes and To Life, To Love. Majourity of the time, he just screams it into the microphone.

Totally wicked. XD
