[Mosh]

1 and 4.
Really easy round.

 

[Ariana]

Voted for 2 in the first pair.
Voting in the second pair would be like rooting for Man United or Barcelona if they played against each other.

 

[mckindog]

1 and 4.
Really easy round.

 

[The Flash]

1&4

 

[Stardust]

2 & 4. The pattern...is back...sigh...

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

Easiest round yet. 1 & 4.

 

[Saapanael]

Well, that wasn't hard. 1 and 4. Foro has started to mix up the round winning numbers .

 

[Night Prowler]

I really don't see what all the fuss is about Satriani...

 

[Brigantium]

2 and 4.

 

[Mosh]

This group has definitely been a little too Satriani heavy. Love his playing but with the exception of Surfing with the Alien, I wouldn't consider any of his solo pieces to be particularly notable instrumentals.

That said, I voted for Summer Song anyway cause the other one didn't do much for me.

 

[mckindog]

You know, this game included a lot of Satch that I don't consider my favourites.
But Summer Song is awesome.

 

[Forostar]

Most of his songs are certainly doing well out here. It looks like many when the total group of songs is getting smaller and smaller.

 

[Brigantium]

I don't think it's done Satch any favours the way his songs have fallen in the Survivor. As much as I'd like to think I vote on the merits of each song versus its rival in that round, I'm finding the Satch ones starting to merge into one and lose their appeal. I wasn't as keen on Borknagar last time I heard it but it's gone up in my estimation now.

 

[Forostar]

Newsflash from Group D: Thank you Stardust, Unknown One and CriedWhenBruceyLeft for responding to my request.
Eliminated: Rainbow - Still I'm Sad & Dick Dale - Misirlou
To the Eight Finals: Rush - La Villa Strangiato & Iron Maiden - Genghis Khan

I have no issue with the amount of Satch, I just wish we'd have a wider selection of his material. All of the songs still here are generally Satch's straight-forward rock songs with lots of solos and uplifting refrains. He has a very broad catalog and we're only getting a small sampling of the same style, which isn't doing him any favors.

 

[Brigantium]

Yeah, it's probably that too.

 

[Stardust]

For the finals, why don't you take the Iron Maiden instrumentals and have them against eachother? The winner of this would be the one in the finals!

 

[Forostar]

There was a very cool different Satch song, Time Machine which imo totally annihilates the other, more silly songs.

but it was voted out in the 2nd round. These people preferred another track (Technical Difficulties by Racer X):

• Unknown One
• mckindog
• Night Prowler
• CriedWhenBrucieLeft
• Crimson Idol
• Ariana
• Brigantium
• Stardust
• RTC

These tried to save it from execution:

• Cosmiceddie
• Forostar
• Cornfed Hick
• The Flash
• Collin
• Saapanael
• MrKnickerbocker

 

[RTC]

In all seriousness, I remember both being good, I just voted the one I enjoyed the most.
