I understand it fine

I bolded a part of his quote, is that the part you're confused with? Neutral

So to clear this up:

Next matchups are now up. They will be active for some time as I am away for the weekend and I may not have access to a computer or have the time to get on here.

I will be back on Monday night and that should see the next 4 matches up.

With the second round not that far off, just wondering what ideas/suggestions people have for the inital post of each matchup. Currently it is album cover and two tracks but this can be mundane and time-consuming. So, anyone?

The biggest losers from the first round went to Radio Birdman, Cold Chisel and John Farnham (all 3 having losses in which they got no votes). But with that aside, let's move the schedule to the next round.

Echolalia vs. (I'm) Stranded

In Ghost Colours vs. Highway To Hell

Diesel And Dust vs. Mars Needs Guitars

Friday On My Mind vs. Dystopia

Cargo vs. Junkyard

Awake Is The New Sleep vs. Innerspeaker

Liberty Belle & The Black Diamond Express vs. Woodface

RIGHT SIDE
Business As Usual vs. Born Sandy Devotional

Since I Left You vs. Back In Black

Calenture vs. Stoneage Romeos

16 Lovers Lane vs. The Sound Of White

Apocalypso vs. East

The Good Son vs. Young Modern

The Overture And The Underscore vs. Like Drawing Blood

Hunters & Collectors vs. The Honeymoon Suite

I've had time to close the matchups for the first half of the round but running out of time (during school) to get the next lot up. Hopefully tonight (in 10 hours time [performance at the school to see]) or tomorrow morning.

The second round saw both ACDC and Cold Chisel, mainstays of Aussie rock, bow out in tough competition. Also the matchup between Blasko and Gotye found me figuring out if my entry was worthy to stay; sadly Sarah, the lone female in the competition, left us. Now only memberd of Something For Kate and The Go Betweens hold the torch for the females in the tournament.

QUARTER FINAL DRAW

This round will also see how these albums transition to a live setting (just found a YouTube clip of a song from the album).

LEFT SIDE
DIRTY THREE - Ocean Songs (1998) vs. SOMETHING FOR KATE - Echolalia (2001)

CUT COPY - In Ghost Colours (2008) vs. MIDNIGHT OIL - Diesel And Dust (1987)

MIDNIGHT JUGGERNAUTS - Dystopia (2007) vs. MEN AT WORK - Cargo (1983)

TAME IMPALA - Innerspeaker (2010) vs. CROWDED HOUSE - Woodface (1991)

RIGHT SIDE
THE TRIFFIDS - Born Sandy Devotional (1986) vs. THE AVALANCHES - Since I Left You (2000)

THE TRIFFIDS - Calenture (1987) vs. THE GO-BETWEENS - 16 Lovers Lane (1988)

THE PRESETS - Apocalypso (2008) vs. NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS - The Good Son (1990)

GOTYE - Like Drawing Blood (2006) vs. HUNTERS AND COLLECTORS - Hunters & Collectors (1982)

At work at the moment so matchups will be up after 4pm (Aus Central Time).

So use this time to refresh your memory and stand up for your choice!
