sic, you post in this thread, you have to send a ballot. those are david byrne's rules, i just follow them

and alfred, you've got t minus 26 hours to get your ballot in, or you're not a lord any more. or, you're not the president. whichever one of those punishments stings the most

just responded via email. I'm voting for the band mix of mesopotamia; the Party Mix/Mesopotamia release.Not the Byrne mix.

I never knew the standalone CD of Mesopotamia was different from the versions on Party Mix! I knew about the longer demo versions of some songs making it onto the vinyl, but this is something else?

tbh not being familiar with the differences between the Mesopotamia material is the main reason I feel unqualified to vote! but I'll try and give all those middle records a listen and send a bad ballot

hell yeah, thanks! your vote would put us at 25 ballots.
― Karl Malone, Saturday, 10 November 2018 04:09 (five years ago) link
I'm 100% voting in this, and will be finalizing my ballot in the next couple hours

^ Very true.
Imagine being at that gig and hearing "Rock Lobster" for the first time.

wow, i just spent waaaaaaay too long illustrating the events of a certain song in a way that's faithful to the album art. no big deal, i'm just unemployed and running out of money!
friendly reminder: last day to vote! i'm expecting a couple more today, and if a couple more surprise ballots come in we can make up to 30. pretty good!
incentive to vote: the top 3 are very, very close, and there's another handful in the top ten that are also very close. so your vote will really make a difference. you can be like that tipping point guy in state where no one lives that decides an election

― Bee OK, Saturday, 10 November 2018 23:09 (five years ago) link

― Karl Malone, Saturday, 10 November 2018 23:15 (five years ago) link
and where the hell is BradNelson? a ballot from him should be one of the first but not yet?
― Bee OK, Saturday, 10 November 2018 23:20 (five years ago) link
Has he even posted?
― slack thompson (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 10 November 2018 23:25 (five years ago) link
He hasn't and I don't like calling people out. It just seems to be in his wheelhouse?

Whoops, only just saw yesterday's Mesopotamia email. That seems a wise decision. (I guess I've mostly heard Mesopotamia via that twofer, but all mixes are decent, and I rarely listen to Party Mix.)
