Mark Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Why thanks :wacky: Oh I really like Mono! They're coming over here next year and I am thinking about going to that gig... Do it! He said it was one of the best live experiences he'd ever had. Sounded wonderful to be fair. There was a tour I wish I'd seen a few years back of Scroobius Pip touring the libraries of the UK. He's a spoken word poet, that would've been something different :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YellowTeardrops13 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm sorry but I am not going to include lists that have a bunch of their releases from 2011 and/or this month. I kind of expect people to put at least the little bit of effort in it, e.g. by reading the first post in this thread and then made a list according to it. If people don't, then I also won't put any effort in placing your list in our Best Of 2012 List. :escaping2: YellowTeardrops13, M83 was officially released in 2011 and was already in last year's list. We can't have that one in this year's list. As Fran said Bruno Mars just came out, so that one shouldn't be submitted either. Coldplay Live and AC/DC Live are also not allowed. Neither is Friendly Fires, LMFAO, etc. Oh whoops! I didn't realize that. I haven't seen the list from last year yet. Sorry about that. :embarrassed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Oh whoops! I didn't realize that. I haven't seen the list from last year yet. Sorry about that. :embarrassed: When I did my list, I got up my iTunes and sorted by release date. Made a list, then put them in that way. Might help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyrd Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Oh whoops! I didn't realize that. I haven't seen the list from last year yet. Sorry about that. :embarrassed:It's not so much about being in the previous list. As mrkjhnwht said, just look at the release date, everything between dec 2011 - dec 2012 should be fine. (except live albums, re-releases, best-of albums) I'll get your list in the excel sheet as well if you have a second look at that list :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
