.
So, the results are in. But first of all, my sincere thanks to everyone who took the time to participate in my latest Battle Of The Bands contest which played out HERE.
.
It was Round 3 in my ongoing $ilver Dollar $aloon $ong Challenge, and it featured Dr. John's 'Right Place, Wrong Time' against Greg & Steve's 'Three Little Pigs' Blues.
.
This one was really just for kicks. Having heard 'Three Little Pigs' Blues for the first time being played in a BAR, I found it so ticklesome (did I just invent a word?) that I couldn't resist putting it up against Dr. John's song. However, The Good Doctor's victory was a foregone conclusion in my mind.
.
Like most other voters, I too gave my "bote" to our currently reigning champion, Dr. John. But it tickles me that the three Little Pigs acquired three little votes:
.
FINAL TALLY
Dr. John = 10 votes
Greg & Steve = 3 votes
.
Let's close this out with one more listen to the 'Three Little Pigs' Blues, this time with some fun & enthusiastic audience participation:
.
.
Please join me again on March 1st for another installment of the Song Challenge from the $aloon where "Dogs are welcome, and People are tolerated".

If I hadn't seen the original votes I'd have thought the 3 pigs voted for themselves.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's worth doing the Battle even though the outcome seems pretty obvious. I've done a few myself.

DeleteOver six decades,
I've learned my lesson well:
You see, you can't please everyone,
So you've got to please yourself.

Hi Stephen T.!
ReplyDeleteI have it on good authority that while the three adorable little pigs lost a lighthearted battle, their homes remain standing - and I have two new battle ideas - thanks!
Your sense of optimism is an ever-present joy in the face of my eternal half-empty glass. ;^)
DeleteI'm pleased as spiked punch that I somehow, somewhere, inspired mo' match-ups of the BOTB variety!

It was a fun battle, even though the outcome was easy to predict. ☺ LOVE the Silver Dollar Saloon's motto! 🐾🐾

DeleteI knew that you - more'n most - would be able to appreciate the $ilver Dollar $aloon's slogan. I used to think it was just a joke until the day I found myself sitting at the bar with a Saint Bernard and his Chihuahua girlfriend.

I was on the wrong side this round but I'm sticking to my vote. Three Little Pigs Blues is not only a fun title but not a bad blues song. :)
ReplyDeleteCAThy ~
DeleteI agree. I think the theme alone fits right in with the Blues. When a Big, Bad Wolf blows your house down... that's the "blues" right there!
