Free Form Cup- We have a winner!

[Lord Rother]

Oh good, this round is taking a while to get through - for some reason about half of them wouldn't play for me, so have had to go a-searching to listen to them.

[never/ever]

Take your time, I may not be able to get to it until Sunday.
The links do work for me but I am aware they may be geoblocked elsewhere.

I can play them all, so I don't know why Lord Rother is having trouble.

Has he finally let you move into the spare bedroom? Nice. You're like BCBs own Felix and Oscar.

Lord Rother - I just got the latest Steven Wilson album, superbly robust !

Googa - Your not playing that moronic prog stuff on the stereo, I could get 2 or 3 bucks for that at the Thrift Store or trade it for a nice Drifters comp !

Lord Rother - Why I oughta !!

I need to win a few ties to move up the list. Had some unlucky draws so far. Plus I miscalculated with my two eighties tracks.

[never/ever]

I'll stick with Sundays being my preferred day to put up ties- my work roster is all over the shop in the next few weeks.

Thanks for voting too, G!

So the Atlantic group has been decided with fange and C both progressing to the semi finals. The Columbia group has 6 players with a shot at the semis.

The semi-finals will be a best-of-three held between the winner of a group against the number two of the other group. The final will be decided in a best-of -5.

Thanks for all the work, Maarts!
