Re: UMT 3.2...

Slicks Votes... VAN HALEN... THE CARS... THE EVERLY BROTHERS... WEEZER... BEACH BOYS... SCORPIONS... SUPREMES... VAN MORRISON....

Slicks Predictions...
Van Halen -- Should win w/ over 70% of the vote...
The Cars -- narrow win...
Toss Up -- this could go either way...
Toss Up -- I'm thinking Weezer wins, just not sure how the voting will go on this one...
Toss Up -- I know Television will get strong support on AM, is it enough and will The O'Jays being a #3 play a factor in the results???
Supremes -- narrow victory perhaps...
Van Morrison -- I'm predicting an easy win, could be wrong on this one...

Re: UMT 3.2...

This group isn't nearly as tough as yesterdays. Beach Boys should cruise through here without too much trouble.

#1 Van Halen
#2 The Cars
#4 Patti Smith
#2 Weezer
#1 The Beach Boys
#7 Television
Joni Mitchell
#3 Van Morrison

I hope Television makes it through the three way.

Re: UMT 3.2...

#1 Van Halen
Two bands I have very close to equal opinions about. I pick Van Halen because 'Jump' is far better than anything Live did.
#4 Patti Smith
Everly Brothers are a one seed? I think they're great, but that surprises me.
#3 Pretenders
I can't stand most of Weezer. I like Pinkerton and Buddy Holly.
#1 The Beach Boys
#7 Television
#4 Joni Mitchell
I really like the Supremes, but Joni Mitchell is one of the people who turned me on to folk.
#3 Van Morrison

Favorite this round - Not a strong third round bracket. Marquee Moon is great enough for me to say Television, though.

Favorite not voted for - Pretenders, followed by the O'Jays.
