Hey gang.

There is this nonsensical online tournament going on. And it features Meat. The organizers of the tournament are not expecting Meat to win (he's an underdog as usual). Anyway, it'd be a fun little tournament for Meat to win. We got him through the first round just posting the link around Facebook. Now he's in the 2nd round up against Aerosmith.

Give a click and vote if you have a moment :) Happy New Year!

PS I'm not quite tech savvy enough to know if this link works in all countries, so pardon my ignorance there.

Could be Meat v AC/DC in the semi-final. Is it played at a neutral venue?

When final starts?

Not quite sure the timing of the heats. Keep checking on MLUKFC for the next round. We'll see if we can keep getting Meat through. The organizers of this contest are underestimating Meat the whole way. They have snide remarks and all. However, he can take it all the way with everyone participating.

To everyone who participated, thanks! Meat made it through to the next heat. Stay tuned. :)

Shhhh don't tell the Acdc fans, maybe they don't know! The other 2 bands in the other one won't have a chance against meat if he gets through :)

Reo speed wagon or who ever they were up against is surely nowhere near Acdc, so surely... But let's not be complacent, vote and vote when it opens back up!

Final opponent will be Duran Duran, because they've got 96,56%. The poll is still open, so maybe we all gonna vote for REO Speedwagon and let the weaker wins to have bigger chance in the final?

Meat vs Duran Duran has got to be a walk over ... Meat vs anyone else good, ie Aerosmith etc, then you can see that the competition is tough, but Duran Duran, ffs ! :roll:

:twisted: Depends on how loyal the fan base is :shrug:

I personally wouldn't vote on RS Vs DD just to influence who Meat goes up against in the final though.
Feels a little like stacking the deck to me.

If Meat wins or loses in the final, let him do it on his own strength.

11.07% as of now. If Duran Duran win, which looks likely, then its a complete ~~~~ing travesty - they're not even a rock band - poll is just bollocks imho !

:twisted: Sounds bizzar to me :wtf:

Ask someone who their favourite act is and they'll tell you who their favourite act is.

Ask someone who they think the biggest sell out is and they'll tell you who they think is the biggest sell out is.

I really fail to see what one has to do with the other.
How can one question be an indicator to answer a different question :nuts:

Well done Duran Duran. A record 12,500 voted in the final and Meat carded the low
40's.
I don't mind a bit of the Duranies so I'm not too downcast!

Well done Duran Duran

Each to their own ! Given it looked like a Duran Duran walk over to start, Meat did well to poll over 40%. Still a travesty though, as Duran Duran aren't even a rock band - its like Elvis beating Iron Maiden in a heavy metal poll - bizarre - and wrong ! :roll:

The whole list looked kind of bizarre, IMO. :wtf: I don't think Clapton belonged anywhere on it- seeing his name there made me want to sing the "Which of these things is not like the others?" song from "Sesame Street". lol

FWIW, I didn't vote either.

Like I said, the webmaster commented on the final poll and said they were all the artists that he thought were the biggest sell outs.... And not in a ticket selling way either.
