lurksalot Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 [quote name='Rikki1984' timestamp='1453914610' post='2964195'] About an hour after this poll opened 3 people had voted and I had received 3 votes. I promptly handed in my resignation to my boss in anticipation of the fame and fortune that undoubtedly comes with winning this competition. [/quote] I kind of feel your pain in reverse, I normally have to wait till the death before some kind soul takes pity and offers up a consolatory vote in my direction , this time I got it at opening time , so I was at least running with the pack for an hour or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Somewhat in the spirit of 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em', here's a promo video, soon to hit TV screens nationwide.... [media]http://youtu.be/_zxk_KLnfvA[/media] The bumper stickers are ready, as are the lapel badges. The 4 x 3 posters go up tomorrow. Don't forget now, folks ... Vote For Lenny..!

Leonard Smalls Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Why thank you, Mr Campaign Manager! You can be the Irma Bunt to my Ernst Stavro Blofeld! Unfortunately I can't view the vid - tis private? However, I'll soon be expecting to hear strange, tuneless ditty-less ditties cluttering up the charts and advertising spaces, as well as corrupting the ears of youthful types who would otherwise be Beliebing...

xgsjx Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I had a listen to all the entries & cast my votes earlier. I felt bad for having an entry & not voting last month. Tell ya what... There's some brilliant entries that are very much finished songs. Some proper skills & it was hard to choose just 3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the boy Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 21 voters thus far, not a bad turn out. Its still any horses race to be fair. I envisage xgsjx pulling away in the final furlong, with Rikki, Dad and Smalls hot on his tail, but who perchance will claim this much coveted accolade??????????? It may be split decision, umpires enquiry, dual photo its impossible to predict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this rate I'll have to go back to the funk... [/quote] Just up and recovering from our first gig of the year (yes, it went well, thank you very much...) only to come across these dark aspersions. I'd like to put the record straight, and ask, in all honesty, where could I have been able to drum up video sequences for a 'Vote for xgsjx' campaign, or even 'Vote for Bilbo' (much as I think it a worthy cause...)..? No, it's purely a matter of fortuity and having a more readily available moniker. Honest, guv. Really. Still, if, as a consequence, a reversion to 'funk' (yes, the inverted commas are there for literary reasons...), 'twill all have been worth it. In my perpetually optimistic manner, I remain stoicly convinced that there is yet a path to Salvation for this poor lost tormented soul, and that the joy of 'real' music could, once again, grace his outpourings. OK, I hear you object, it's too late, the damage has been done, the road too rocky... Maybe, but if I can light just one small torch on his way and save what's left, I can sleep more easily. I may be wrong, of course; the last time, if I remember correctly , was in 1956 over the outcome of the Suez crisis, so I'm not infallible by any means. Time will tell...
