as expected, Gamespy is climbing up the ranks...kudos to 1up for holding on to the lead

I wish the websites would do more write-ups, though I'm kinda expecting 1up to do a Battle Of The Bands section in one of the episodes of the 1up show once it's all over.

1UP is clearly wtfpwning everyone. I know we're in 2nd now, but we're going to need some lucky song selection if we're going to catch them.

Our biggest problems are that (a) I've had to play drums most of the time, meaning our guitar is suffering, and (b) our vocals are inconsistent depending on the song. I ended up doing double duty on Paranoid, playing Expert guitar and Hard vocals because our singer didn't know the song; I did well, but our drummer had to bump down to Medium, which killed our score.

For the record, I played drums on Reptilia, Next to You and Ballroom Blitz (ignore the names in our photos, we rotated on different songs). For round 3, we'll have to decide if I just bite the bullet and play Expert guitar all the time, even if our drummer has to stick to Medium, and see if that gives us better scores. 1UP clearly has four decent players, which is huge; it's become obvious that each band is only as strong as its weakest link.

Sluggo;

What you should tell your vocalist to do (whoever he is) is to get every single song and study them, learn roughly how to sing them, etc. just so you don't have to pull double duty

Just a suggestion

I find it funny that some teams did better on ONE song than AOL has done OVERALL.
