ok - i searched for this thread, but couldnt find it, so im going to re-start. this is a great ILM game, where we start out with 10 artists, and everyone gets a chance to take one of the artists away, and replace them with a new one. a couple rules...

- when you post, make your changes and post the new list, along with any comments
- you cant add any artist that has already been subtracted
- after posting, you cant post again until one of the artists that youve added had been taken out
- fighting/revenge/bickering is encouraged
- games are so fun!

ok - ill start with a list of 10:

arthur russell
donna summer
the cocteau twins
double leopards
the headcoats
alice coltrane
mike jones
goblin
the lovin' spoonful
scott walker

go!

i think part of this game is like "if you were stranded on a desert island, and could only listen to ten artists...", but that complicates things, what with size of discography, etc. but isnt it funny to think if the artists themselves were stranded? scott walker and the celtic frost dudes climbing on each others' back to get coconuts, etc...

― petesmith (plsmith), Friday, 23 September 2005 17:17 (twenty years ago)

Goblin nixed due to not knowing who the fuck they are:

Marianne Faithfull

Clyde McPhatter

― Josh Love (screamapillar), Friday, 23 September 2005 17:19 (twenty years ago)

That's tragic. Goblin are way better than Marianne Faithful.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 23 September 2005 17:20 (twenty years ago)

it's fun to see which artists have the most staying power on a list like this. and it's nice that people can -within the confines of the rules of course- be as arbitrary as they want when making replacements.

― carly (carly), Friday, 23 September 2005 17:22 (twenty years ago)
