Round 2 draw will be made in a second *kicks starts random.org to draw list of 16 numbers in columns of 2* 12 4 1 11 2 14 16 7 8 10 15 3 9 13 5 6 Interesting...

Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club vs. Arctic Monkeys- Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not 8 Coldplay - A rush of blood to the head vs. U2 - Joshua Tree Again if someone has any problems with the round 1 results, and if on recount it brings the tie the other way around than the true winner will be put in place of the false winner.
April 26, 200917 yr Really glad Fleet Foxes got by. I'm guessing it will slaughter Justin Timberlake. If not I'll doubt the intelligence of this forum :P
April 26, 200917 yr This coming from an uninformed voter that could've single-handed saved Sigur Ros's best album.. :rolleyes: :P JK, probably wouldn't matter and I'm clearly very prejudiced. This next draw will be a doozie!!! I already know which ones I'll choose but there are still a fistful of FU's
