Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
You really gonna tell me that there aren't 10-20 bands better than The Beatles?

Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
Makes more sense to haggle it out quietly. Maybe two players want to veto and they get into a Mexican standoff to see who blinks first.

Comically and embarrassingly low placement and I’m not some super fan.

You place a top 300 band in the top 30 and have the nerve to criticize?Headhunter wrote: ↑Thu Jun 12, 2025 10:44 am Comically and embarrassingly low placement and I’m not some super fan.

i thought everyone else was gonna be sensible and let me be the oddball. no luck there. 

Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
Indeed. You and Head clamored for only 30 and were like "you only get five picks. Better make em count".
So we get Free, and then the Beatles.


Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
The Beatles are actually probably a top 20 band for me.

Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
i don't know where they rank exactly for me, but that's without decade exclusion. and i'm weird.

The Beatles troll play was predictable here though. I had a “Beatles are overrated” phase but their Rubber Soul-Let It Be run is kinda undeniable for me now.
Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
What's decade exclusion?

Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
even though we're doing a draft excluding the 90s here, i still take that decade into account when i rank bands.
Re: The HMF Draft Vol. 2 - Battle of the Bands (Discussion Thread)
I'm not going into this draft trying to make it look like a top rock bands list from Rolling Stone magazine. We all have our favorites that differ greatly and they're gonna be all over the place.zombie wrote: ↑Thu Jun 12, 2025 11:09 ameven though we're doing a draft excluding the 90s here, i still take that decade into account when i rank bands.
