    Last chance for any of the outstanding voters to have their say... Less than 1/2hr.

    As it stands there is one less 'Group B' vote, so bear this in mind when the scores are revealed.

    Three still in contention. Two spots in the Round 5 up for grabs. One who will be there is...

    Which leaves No Doubt and Pvris. For one it will be the end of the line.

    Bit which one?

    And then there were 2. And just one spot left. Would it be Fleetwood Mac or Siouxsie Sioux and the Banshees?

    Time to find out.





































    The final spot from Group A belongs to

    Which means that it is the end of the line for Siouxsie and the Banshees, courtesy of BotB debutante, @borobob, who now joins the Jury. Falling victim to the debut album, this is not the first big name that have come a cropper at this stage of the competition and still had some quality in the tank, but that is the thing, knowing when to use it. All in all though, a fair debut effort none the less to reach this point.

    One spot left.

    Time to find out who it will be.

    The final spot in Round 5 belongs to...





















    [​IMG]
    Pvris survive, edging it out by 2 points ahead of No Doubt.

    Which means that it is the end of the line for Long Beach's No Doubt (@Papa Emeritus). No Doubt has had their fair share of success over the years and still had some big numbers up their sleeve still, but the TC voters have spoken.
