    Though, by virtue of securing 3 '1' votes, the honours go to Status Quo.

    An absolute anthem!

    Congrats to both Status Quo and Offspring, who have booked their passage to the Final 12.​

    So it's down to Bear's Den and The Specials for the last available spot from Group B moving on to Round 4.

    39 - 47

    Congrats to

    Moving On!


    Which sadly means that we are losing our second Ska act of the Competition. The Specials (@Sid1888 ) fall victim here. Shame, as they had a lot still to offer and am genuinely sad to see them go. But the BotB Voters have spoken. :'(​

    Will be the next one safe.



    Finishing with the most '7' votes, but overall scraping to

    40 Points

    was...

    Which means that this will be the end of the line for either Bad Religion or Billy Idol.

    But who will it be?

    With 11 safely through, time to discover who the 12th and Final entrant is in the Round 4 Draw.

    By a score of

    41 - 42

    Moving on is...






















    [​IMG]

    Close, but is safely over the line.

    Which leaves, and I am truly gutted for this, as I love this band so * much and really hoped that they could have made a serious dent in this competition Especially as there would be no Green Day and especially no Offspring if it wasnt for Bad Religion (@Vinnie BBQ ). ​

    :giggle1: Right. I respect everybody's taste in music, but voting the offspring at #1 with some fun punk song and bad religion who with two or three other bands pioneered that same music last is beyond me. Are * voting on names only? (Give it to me baby!) Not sure if I'm going to bother again.
