[Wat_Tyler]

[Tektonik]

1. You forgot the other New Order spinoffs

The Other Two, Revenge, and Monaco. :P So I choose Electronic.

[Wat_Tyler]

2. Nah.

We're saving them for poll #7.

[asthmaticeog]

3. ACR were in the first poll.

If there's still edit time, you can punt 'em for someone else that's been neglected, though I suspect we've run out.

[Wat_Tyler]

5. Oh, I think I could pull together poll #4.

[Tektonik]

4. I hate to mention this buut

Everyone forgot Oarses

[Wat_Tyler]

6. Who?

[Tektonik]

7. Oasis

I call em oArses; they hail from Mancland.

[Wat_Tyler]

8. Never heard of them. When were they around?

[StopTheMorans]

14. never heard of em either?

:shrug:

[asthmaticeog]

9. Huh, I thought they were from Leeds.

[Tektonik]

11. Nope

They are Mancs.

[asthmaticeog]

16. OK. Thanks for the correction.

And welcome to DU! :hi:

[Tektonik]

18. Thanks

:D

[Beware the Beast Man]

10. Hey, I already mentioned Inspiral Carpets!

But I voted for them anyway!

[sundog]

12. woo hoo

:7

Electronic of course

duh :P

[Tektonik]

15. Shouldn't there be three different choices for Electronic??

Version 1: Marr, Sumner, Tennant
Version 2: Marr, Sumner, Bartos
Version 3: Marr, Sumner

I'd choose the first one of course.

[sundog]

21. of course

just don't forget to add Stephen Hague in the mix :P

Really dug the MAW remix of "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" btw :7

[Tektonik]

24. It's all about

the Until the End of Time mixes. I also like the Miami edit of Lucky Bag, the mixes of Second Nature, and Soviet 2.

[sundog]

26. Getting Away With It (Nude Mix)

There are no good breaks in the original full length :P

DNA needs some credit here too.

[Tektonik]

27. I'm listening to

'Until The End Of Time' the Fluffy Dice mix

[LoZoccolo]

13. Oooo oo-hoooo aaaa aa-haaaa yeah.

Now you got it in your head.

[XNASA]

17. Since Noel Gallagher once roadied for Inspiral Carpets....

...it would only make sense that they be disqualified.

[Tektonik]

19. Good!

I'd rather have Oasis be from Crawford, TX than glorious Manchester. It seems more fitting.

[LoZoccolo]

20. That may have been because of contract issues.

Maybe he was writing a bunch of their songs, but couldn't admit it because he was on contract with whatever label Oasis is on, and so they just put him down as a roadie. Maybe if you looked at his pay, you would find he made way more than you would expect for a roadie because it is a disguise job.

[XNASA]

22. Even worse.

[Wat_Tyler]

23. Makes sense.

Inspiral Carpets on their best day stunk like a dead dog on a Manila sidewalk, so it makes sense that Noel was writing the songs.

[Tektonik]

25. Don't bash the Inspirals!

Well I guess you can make fun of their sophomore album, but leave the debut album alone!

[asthmaticeog]

28. Strangely enough, though...

the Noel Gallagher collaboration is one of the better songs on the new Ian Brown solo record -- I don't get it, I usually can't stands me any of that Noel Gallagher.

:shrug:

[CrownPrinceBandar]

29. I only have "Best band from Manchester I"poll........................

can I upgrade to "III" without the patch? :eyes:

Anyway, I have to go with Electronic, the strictly Marr-Sumner version.

[Wat_Tyler]

30. You might have video card problems.

[Tektonik]

31. Maybe there should be a best band from Bristol thread n/t

.

[Spider Jerusalem]

32. Massive Attack.

You need a poll for that?

[Tektonik]

33. pah!

It has to be Portishead.

[Wat_Tyler]

34. Pshaw!

Monkey Mafia.

[Tektonik]

35. Flame War!

:grr: :D
