Pop Open

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I won't be posting the rules etc. for the Pop Open today.

But I have worked out the themes for the 8 groups:

Anger, Death, Joy, Love, Sex, Surprise, Summer, Tension

and I know which group all the players are in.

I'll post details, and how it all works tomorrow.

I guess a key decision for voters is whether to vote for the track you like best, or the track which best reflects that week's theme...

bet I'm on the anger group.

if I'm playing, that is..

There are too many jokes here to even start.

[umlauts.livejournal.com]

I was expecting the catergories to be passion, love, sex, money, violence, religion, justice and death.

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Haha they might yet be!

I'm surprised there's no drugs/alcohol group.

[jeff-worrell.livejournal.com]

Dr Drugs has proven BY SCIENCE on Freaky Trigger and the Lollards of Pop that no songs about drukqs exist!

[umlauts.livejournal.com]

Nearly all songs about drugs are rub and not pop anyway!

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

it clearly depends WHICH DRUG!

[umlauts.livejournal.com]

All songs about pot are rubbish. Nearly all songs about heroin are rubbish. As for cocaine, if you exclude "Narcotic" by Liquido, it's all rubbish there too.

Ecstacy probably has one or two good songs, as might other songs about duhncing for indie kids that involve teh drugz0r.

Does alcohol count as a drug? Lots o' good songs about drinking.

[umlauts.livejournal.com]

Okay, yeah, there are good songs about drinking, and even good songs about drinks themselves. My blanket statement mostly applies to the illicit.

And "Lust For Life" is very good, yes.

[justfanoe.livejournal.com]

I think "Lust for Life" is a pretty good song.

Can I be in the Surprise Summer Tension group? That's my life for the next few months, after all.
