Official Rate The Musician/Artist Suggestion Thread

[El Fangel]

Give me 5 per day if you can, Ill take a quick look through, and pick the 5 I most see, not saying if it will the correct 5 but if I see a name 2-3 times, that goes up.

[Kris P Lettus]

Still add in your own, dude..

Mos Def
Sublime
Alice in Chains
Beastie Boys
Santana

Eclectic..

:y:

[El Fangel]

Actually I like the sound of 3 per day, and you guys suggesting will keep you happy as it varies the music into genres I know little about and few artists from.

[Kris P Lettus]

Def

Just use this as a place to pick from, when you need suggestions..

:y:

[ron the dial]

You've got my list.

[Kane Knight]

Bowie.

[Inadequacy]

Green Jelly :shifty:

[El Fangel]

Are you joking?

[El Fangel]

Bowie.
Bowie is already done.

[Kris P Lettus]

Green Jelly :shifty:

Fucking right!!

I love them.. 3 Little Pigs, The Misadventures of Shitman, Obey the Cow God, etc.. I hear Maynard played guitar for them but it's hard information to confirm..

9/10

[Inadequacy]

Are you joking?

maybe...

[Kane Knight]

Bowie is already done.

Now that that's out of the way:

Led Zep
The Beatles
The Who
Queen
3 Doors Down

As someone said before, just look at the request thread and pick arbitrarily or whatever. I mean, the idea of being "fair" is nice and all, but I doubt anyone was sitting around thinking "When is he gonna get to Rhianna?"

[El Fangel]

3 Doors Down

As someone said before, just look at the request thread and pick arbitrarily or whatever. I mean, the idea of being "fair" is nice and all, but I doubt anyone was sitting around thinking "When is he gonna get to Rhianna?"

Those ones will be done eventually, I suspect at least 2 of those will be top 10, later on when the top ten seems to be set in stone, I will drop one in.

I'm trying to be fair to everyone, and not just a genre either, I thought maybe because I like hard rock/metal I was doing more, so I figured I would do a rap/hip hop/pop/r&b and <b>Rihanna</b> was on the local radio station, so I'm like Why not.

[ron the dial]

Sonic Youth

[Kane Knight]

Fair is nice, but again, know your audience.

You want some other suggestions?

Pearl Jam
Cypress Hill
Bone, Thugs n Harmony
Extreme
Uhhh...Melissa Etheridge.
Guster (Hey, you wanted diversity? Choose some folk acts)
Hank Williams (Pick one)
Dwight Yoakam
The Velvet Underground

There, some decent diversity. Not exactly the encyclopedia musica, but....

[Crossrine]

I want to say Nirvana, but seeing as how the majority hate them it will semi kill me inside to see them at a low rate :'(

[FakeLaser]

Pink Floyd
Joy Division
The Smiths
Incubus
The Mars Volta

Sonic Youth but Weapon X already said it

[Kane Knight]

I want to say Nirvana, but seeing as how the majority hate them it will semi kill me inside to see them at a low rate :'(

:lol:

[Kane Knight]

Oh yeah, and the Cure. FR's mention of Joy Division reminded me.

[Russenmafia]

Disturbed
Blue Oyster Cult
Iron Maiden
Allman Brothers Band
White Zombie

[Kane Knight]

I'd mention a ton more bands, but you'd end up with like four people rating them because of the limited number who would have heard of them.

And I'm sure I can come up with a hundred other bands that people do know.

[FakeLaser]

Yeah, definitely do The Cure.

I'd mention a ton more bands, but you'd end up with like four people rating them because of the limited number who would have heard of them.
Yes.

[Funky Fly]

What RZA, no Xiu Xiu?

[Funky Fly]

Oh yeah, we should do

The RZA
Xiu Xiu

Just reminded myself.

[El Fangel]

You guys are doing great.

[Funky Fly]

:cool:

[Funky Fly]

I will recommend 4523467586 people later on. I am supposed to be doing this gay ass homework right now, but I don't wanna.

[El Fangel]

I defiantly could do 5/day. I think I will. :)

[Kane Knight]

Dylan should go up at some time.

[Kane Knight]

You also might at some point want to just keep a database of the top 50 or 100. You'll run into more musicians than wrestlers

[Kane Knight]

Especially if you're doing 5/Day.

[El Fangel]

You also might at some point want to just keep a database of the top 50 or 100. You'll run into more musicians than wrestlers

Im trying to decide on 3 or 5 Im thinking 3 as it will keep things lower.

and what you mean by database, and do you know how Helmsphere made that drag down menu for rate the wrestler, which he has not done in days.

[Kane Knight]

That's the idea. I mean, with 3 or 5 guys a day, we're looking at 20-30 people a week. A top 20 doesn't quite cover that kind of turnover, really.

Another suggestion, you might want to put the name of the artist next to the number in the title.

[El Fangel]

Another suggestion, you might want to put the name of the artist next to the number in the title.

I like surprising people when they open the thread to see, but yeah im going to start doing that as it would create less confusion with 3-5 a day.

[Kane Knight]

Yeah, it's the "with 3-5 a day" bit that's found me thinking it.

[El Fangel]

As much as I would like not too, its needed, hell Im confused now about the last 5 i put up.

Cool.

They get played a lot on WRSI. Or they did; I can't get the radio station in my apartment. Ah well.

They have some ties to the area, but fuck if I know what (Since they're not local).

Anyway, I picked up their records based on that. Nice sound.

[KingofOldSchool]

Yeah they are based in Louisville, which alls gets the "I've seen them before they made it big" line from my girlfriend like every time we talk about them.

[Kane Knight]

Lovely.

"Well I listened to them before they were even a band!"

[KingofOldSchool]

Lovely.

"Well I listened to them before they were even a band!"

"I listened to them since they were kicking inside of the womb!"

[FakeLaser]

My Morning Jacket are kinda overrated, I dunno

[ron the dial]

Their cover of Take My Breath Away is one of the worst things I have ever heard.

[KingofOldSchool]

My Morning Jacket are kinda overrated, I dunno

I didn't really realize they were rated enough to be overrated. :-\

[FakeLaser]

They are pretty well-revered on the indie scene.

Uh, that'll do I guess. Consider that advance lists, too. This way, I don't have to post as much. You can just come back to my one mega-post for pretty much what I imagine are the vast majority of my suggestions.

[Kris P Lettus]

I have heard of maybe one of those bands, Mitch..

[ron the dial]

Suggestion: go back and put the band names in every thread.

[Kane Knight]

I didn't really realize they were rated enough to be overrated. :-\

Didn't, either.

But then, when I've met only one person who actually listens to them, and he works in an indie record store....

[El Fangel]

Suggestion: go back and put the band names in every thread.

*Phew* Done and Done. :y:

[ron the dial]

:y:

[ddpBANG]

:y:

[El Fangel]

That should make it a bit easier, also I think I will be away from thursday till maybe monday, so I will put up like 10 for you guys :P

[Kane Knight]

Also, do some classic rockers. Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, the obviousness that is the Beatles, and so on.

[Kane Knight]

Mostly Jerry and the Beatles.

Lewis really cooked.

[El Fangel]

Im saving the Beatles, Not Yoko, she can go fuck herself, yes, I will put them up, but remember getting everyone at a rate of 3/day may take awhile.

[Kane Knight]

I WOOOOOONT BE YOOOOUR YOOOOOKO OOOONO If you're not good enough for me....

[mitchables]

I have heard of maybe one of those bands, Mitch..

[Mister Sinister]

Im trying to decide on 3 or 5 Im thinking 3 as it will keep things lower.

and what you mean by database, and do you know how Helmsphere made that drag down menu for rate the wrestler, which he has not done in days.

Even I am powerless compared to the Kliq.

And if you need the drop down Menu, I will get you the coding for it.

[FakeLaser]

lol Bitchslicer

[El Fangel]

Ok guys here is what I would like you to do, give me two bands you would like done, with the first being priority, I will do it unless I want your first choice to be saved for later, in which case ill do your second choice.
