I see the Rush fans have bagan to wake up.. Thought this was going to be too easy!  Wink  However, if you have yet to vote then vote for the international influencial caterburyan psychadelical jazzy genii that make up the fantastical teapotflying tea supping Gong

yeah man. Vote for Gong. If you haven't listened to them... vote for them. Trust us, they are far better than Rush.

If you only have one album... order 2 more albums and call Doctor Micky in the morning ...after you have voted for Gong.

If you are from Detroit...or from Canada.. you have my sympathies.. vote for Rush then LOL

oh yeah.  Final bit of advice from Doctor Micky.

If you are 18... stuck asking your Neil Peart poster over your bed why the hot blond won't give you the time of day .. even when decked out in your cool denim jacket with the 2112 patch on the back... do yourself a favor.

Start right now on the road to getting hot chicks..  see that little button up  there that says GONG.. hit it and vote for Gong...  start dressing like a hippy and digging Gong albums and lose the Rush gear and especially the Neil Peart poster.. no self respecting chick is letting you take her with Neil Peart looking over you two.

Going with Gong, although I'm not very keen on either band.

Loved Rush as a kid, but not as much as I used to. I'm going with Gong.

But Rush are from Toronto; the only Canadians who like Toronto are people who live in Toronto.

Canadians and the Bordurikans should vote for Gong...at least their songs don't get played on the radio all the f**king time!

ahhh  ..sorry Canadians..I stand corrected...  you still have my sympathies.. for being lumped in as Rush fanatics out of some perverse patriotism.....show your independence then... VOTE GONG!!!! LOL

When I lived in Michigan.. at least we got off great and easy.  We got a steady diet of Bob Segar and Ted Nugent. Seeming every other song I ever seem hear on the radio was from either of those two.

God help you if you have Rush playing all the damn time LOL

some points to take from the tournament so far

1) ELP going a long way to re-establishing some respect and love on this forum
2) the Gong Army being a force to be reckoned with. Quite the fanbase
3) the Italians have quite a fanbase here, with only one disappointing result... SOON TO BE AVENGED LOLLOLAngry

it was a little much to expect them to win against Gentle Giant (the only one that will knock them out will be a 'big heavy'... it was Osanna that didn't show well.. against a group that only did ONE thing better than Osanna.

Speak better English and have a larger fanbase. AngryLOL

Ahhh you were thinking of OsannaLOL

Regarding your last comment: Cry
Some things never change. 'If you don't understand the lingo, ditch the music'. Such a shame... 
Although to be fair, we're quite a few on here who couldn't give a rat's rectum about the lingoClap
