All Time Music Draft 2.0

[Dasher]

Established posters with musical cred get preferential treatment, as do active posters. I do not want a repeat of the horrible 2nd Hip Hop Draft.

I'm down. Also, if you were on the previous DRAFT, you can't select somebody you already selected!

Link to the 1st Draft:
http://insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=102079

You do not have to form a band. You can make a label, put together a dream concert, or construct the ultimate jam session. The only limit is your imagination.

Drafting skills and grafting them on others is out now as no one used it the first time.

8-12 Participants

8 Rounds

Snake Draft

Leisurely Pick Time Limit of 12 hours for the first 3 rounds. 8 for rounds 3-6. The last three rounds employ a pod system where 3 posters are on the clock simultaneously. If a member of that pod picks. The person immediately below on the board can pick.

An example of a pick would be:

Dasher selects Janis Joplin position lead singer.

Janis Lyn Joplin was born January 19, 1943 and died October 4, 1970. In between she led a triumphant and tumultuous life blessed by an innate talent to convey powerful emotion through heart-stomping rock-and-roll singing. Born and raised in Port Arthur, Texas, a small Southern petroleum industry town, she gravitated to artistic interests cultivated by parents Seth and Dorothy Joplin.
Janis broke with local social traditions during the tense days of racial integration, standing up for the rights of African Americans whose segregated status in her hometown seared her youthful ideals. Along with fellow band beatnik-reading high school students, she pursued the non-traditional via arts and literature, especially music. They gravitated to folk and jazz with Janis especially taken with the blues. Discovering an inborn talent to belt the blues, Janis began copying the styles of Bessie Smith, Odetta and Leadbelly. She played the coffee houses and hootenannies of the day in the small towns of Texas. She later ventured to the beatnik haunts of Venice, North Beach and the Village in New York, eventually landing in Austin, Texas as a student at the University of Texas. Jumping into the on-the-edge lifestyle cultivated by the beats, Janis thrilled at her creativity, but almost lost herself in experiments with drugs and alcohol, especially speed.

Returning home for a year to question her life direction, she excelled at college but was never content. Music still called her to her in spite of its dangerous association with drugs. "The two aren't wedded," her friends counseled. When old Austin friend, Chet Helms, then in San Francisco, called to offer her a singing audition with an up-and-coming local group, Janis was tempted. She found a vital San Francisco community, turned upside down by the flower children of 1966, and was offered the singing position in a relatively obscure group called "Big Brother and the Holding Company."

Reasons for the Choice:

Janis has a powerhouse voice. Her tone is versatile enough to sing pop, traditional blues, R&B, and rock. She has a great deal of flair and showwomanship. Her image is both relateable and Iconic. Her rough and tumble/tomboyish attitude made her able to be successful in a male-dominated industry. Janis' vulnerability makes her appealing to both women and sensitive guys.

Starface is up, but is acting like a b!tch right now.

[L.Kizzle]

I'm down. Also, if you were on the previous DRAFT, you can't select somebody you already selected!

[brooks_thompson]

i'll do it

[vapid]

lol how did you know I wanted to join?

[DC's Finest]

Could you select mainly rap/hip-hop picks? If so I'd be in. Aside from rap, don't know much past the Isley Brothers

[QUIZZLE]

Damn I'm in if you don't mind. I have a low post count but i've been on about everyday for a while poking at random threads

[StroShow4]

There was a second hip-hop draft?

[Tito Beasley]

I'm in this from the beginning this time, and don't have to start off by taking over a team that used consecutive picks on tupac and biggie.

[Dasher]

lol how did you know I wanted to join?

You are a draft addict.

[Dasher]

There was a second hip-hop draft?

I do not like to talk about. It was horrible, only 15 year olds were interested, even though Magic Man offered an interesting twist of creating the ultimate posse cut. Virtual DJ could have made making the songs possible.

[QUIZZLE]

when would this start dasher?

[Dasher]

when would this start dasher?

When it fills up. More than likely tomorrow afternoon. Drafters have to make sure to PM those whose pick is next.

Roger. I work till 3 so if you could put me in late-round that would be great.

[RedBlackAttack]

I'm in.

[Tito Beasley]

With all due respect to the likes of doomsday dallas, strowshow and others, this draft needs to have fewer selectors than the first one, with an emphasis on people with knowledge of more than one type of music.
