Remember those cowboy heroes who were men of few words who just got down to doing what needed to be done? Well, that's me on vacation--not necessarily heroic, but just gettin' it done. Today I'm just delivering the results of my Battle of the Bands featuring the song "Cowboy Dreams"...
Battle of the Bands Results
Some of you mentioned that this was a tough Battle and I agree. I could go either way on this match as well, but since I've got to go with one of them then I'm going to cast my vote for Nigel Livingstone. My reasons are much like some of you stated--the greater energy of the version and a preference for the instrumental back-up.
Jimmy Nails immediately ran off with the lead in this Battle, but Nigel Livingstone pulled up close behind in the final round of voting. Good job Jimmy. Not bad Nigel.
Final Vote Tally
Jimmy Nails 10 votes
Nigel Livingstone 7 votes
Next Battle on Sunday July 1st
Since my next Battle is going to be a Sunday Battle then I'm going to take it to church--well, kind of church. Hopefully I'll post it okay and as long as my computer cooperates I'm sure I will.
Are you having a great summer so far?
Hi Lee, had the winner this month.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to the next.
Have a great weekend.
Yvonne.
Yvonne, you've been pretty good at siding with the winners in my Battles.
DeleteLee
I picked a winner this time.
ReplyDeleteAlex, I thought they were both winners, but you picked the official one.
DeleteLee
Close battle. Nice to be on the winning side. Summer is always great! My favourite season. ☺ Cheers!
ReplyDeleteDebbie D, I like summers, but in California there are nice things about every season.

Not looking forward to heat and humidity. I'm not s summer person.
ReplyDeleteJoJo, I'm fine with nice summer weather, but I don't like the heat combined with humidity either.
DeleteLee
I nailed it! I hate summer. Always have. Humid and hot or dry and hot? Doesn't matter.
ReplyDeleteSusan, when summer comes I'm a child again. Come to think of it I'm like a child much of the time these days.
DeleteLee
I would have voted Jimmy Nail... Both were nice.
ReplyDeleteMichael, Nigel thanks you for not voting and giving Jimmy a bigger margin.

Summer ain't been the same since I got out of school and started working for a living. Back in my era of "Summer Vacations", when all Summer was spent at the beach, body-surfing and girl-watching, this season was the best. Now, if I could order it like a menu item, I'd ask the waitress to bring me 365 days of Fall weather.
ReplyDeleteIMO, this was one of your best Battles in awhile, LEE. At the time I voted for Nigel, he was getting clobbered. I'm glad to see he made such an impressive comeback, because he didn't deserve the beat-down he was getting.
See ya on the 1st, buddy! Enjoy the road.

STMcC Presents 'Battle Of The Bands'
STMcC, I'd agree that Fall is pretty fine. And Spring isn't bad either.
DeleteI'm so pleased that so many enjoyed this Battle. I was a bit concerned about using this unfamiliar song, but I'm glad it all turned out well.
Having an incredible time on the road, but I usually do.

My summer has been mild so far. And my summer family duties haven't quite kicked in yet.
ReplyDeleteGB, nice when summer is free and easy, but obligations are obligations.
DeleteLee
So far so good with summer on my end! Hope yours is a blast. :)
ReplyDeleteLoni, having a wonderful time! Still a couple more weeks until we get back home.
