Tournament of Rock, Rd 1, Grp 2: Tommy Petty vs. Clash

[Kodos]

Vote for the group you would see if both were in concert.

[Crapshoot]

I'm going with "The Only Band That Matters."

[path12]

I've seen Petty three times. The answer is The Clash.

[korme]

Petty would be blowing this tournament out of the water if it was for Ugliest Rocker

[Axxon]

I'd want to see both concerts but I'm not a huge fan of either. This one is tough in a minor sort of way but I'd rather see the Clash.

[Mr. Wednesday]

I like Petty's albums better, but I'd guess the Clash would be a more interesting live show.

May I remind you that Tesla is in the tournament?

[Toddzilla]

If The Clash lose this, it invalidates the entire tournament as it proves the voting constituency isn't qualified to pick. THIS is the biggest no-brainer so far.

[Kodos]

Ahh, yes. So you might say that this one is a ... litmus test of sorts?

[Neuqua]

I am a big fan of Petty and have never even heard of Clash.

Hell, I'm still trying to figure out how anyone can listen to either of them for more than ten minutes.

The Clash song I'm most familiar with is the one from NCAA 06 - Train in Vain

Mother of god, how is Tom Petty winning this?
Ditto.


I think every band I voted for in the first round lost.

[Marc Vaughan]

Come on The Clash - time for a late surge of support surely ...

[Crapshoot]

Ditto.

Holy shit, if you and I agree, its gotta be the right thing. :D

Seriously people - just listen to London Calling once. I like Tom Petty, but him against the Clash is like Maroon 5 vs. Radiohead.

[Kodos]

Just three votes separate them with 2 hours left. It's going down to the wire, folks! :eek:
