Great idea! Thanks for putting it together!
I have it down to my Final Four if I was the sole voter and I have a #2, #4, #7 and #8 seed going to the final four.
I have a two #2's and #8 and #9 seeds going to my final four.

The brackets make it very interesting, having to make some tough choices along the way... Only one of my seeds would I place in my top 4 Buffett songs...although, all four would be in my top 10.

Okay so That's What Living Is To Me and Great Filling Station Holdup are the two "winners." Both will become 16 seeds. TWLITM will face Come Monday in the Ballads Bracket and GFSH will play Margaritaville in the Boats Bracket.

I have a question, how do we know how long we have to cast our vote for our favorite? And when will the next set be up? :D

Each poll will last 48 hours from the time I post it. I will try to do 3 games every day. Today's was SOASOAS/Calaloo, Cuban Crime of Passion/Another Saturday Night, and I Will Play For Gumbo/Havana Daydreamin.

Good! BTW can we post an updated bracket within another thread so that we can see where everyone stands?

Good idea BTW adds a little "spice" to March Madness :D

RoadToTheFinalFour "told" me that he'll post an updated bracket this weekend when more games are done. As of now there are only 4 or 5 games actually finished.

Sometimes more than others,
we see who and what and where we are,
I'm just a one man band,
With my feet in the sand,
Tonight I just need my guitar

Personally I am already out on one bracket.

It works for me on Firefox. When I clicked it, it asked me if I wanted to open up the ppt file, which I did and it worked fine on ppt. Nothing comes up on the actual web page though.
