Battle of the Bands Update

Jethro Tull

We had a couple of close ones in the Battle of the bands this week on Dr. John's Record Shelf. Jethro Tull (seeded no. 6 in the Empire Bracket) upset the Bee Gees (3) by a 5-4 margin and the Kinks (2) took down Badfinger (7) by a 6-3 score.

The Kinks

The songs in the competition this week were "Thick as a Brick" by Tull, "I Started a Joke" by the Bee Gees, "Waterloo Sunset" by the Kinks, and "No Matter What" by Badfinger-- not a stinker in the bunch. So this means that the kinks and Jethro Tull will meet in Round 3. Next week's Pop Bracket pairings look like this:"Sorry" by the Easybeats (11) v."Bluebird" by Buffalo Springfield (3); and "This Wheel's On Fire" by the Band v. "Love is All Around" by the Troggs. If you'd like to vote on one or both of those, just put your choices in the comments section.
