Once again, thanks to everyone. I think the 6@6 is a pretty good resource for people who may wish to check out an artist they don’t know much about & get a basic idea which tracks are most preferred by the Doper community. Because of the dynamic nature of the music industry & the date the poll was run, tracks on some newer releases from artists that still recording are not included. As has always been our custom, if there’s a band you’d like to see a 6@6 poll for; **request it** – we’ll try & get it into the upcoming schedule. The majority of bands we’ve run polls on (and in the upcoming schedule) have been requested by other Café Society denizens. **Eighth: Tentative Schedule – Something For Everyone?** _(This) Week #51: Prophets Week - Polls 113-115:_ Billy Bragg {For colour wolf & Snooooopy} | Ani DiFranco {For colour wolf} | Nick Drake _Week #52: Modern Week – Polls 116-118:_ Echo & The Bunnymen/Ian McCulloch Solo {For Ludovic} | Death Cab for Cutie / The Postal Service {For Treviathan} | Catherine Wheel {For spiralscratch & elfkin477} _Week #53: Cross-Country Week – Polls 119-122:_ Cowboy Mouth {For elfkin477} | Ryan Adams/Whiskeytown {For Only Mostly Dead & Treviathan} | A.R.S. {For 5 time champ} | The CBD _Week #54: Can You Come Up With A Name? Week - Polls 123-125:_ Depeche Mode | Everclear | Dishwalla {For elfkin477} _Week #55: Hell Freezes Over Week – Polls 126-128:_ The Eagles | Don Henley/Glen Frey Solo | Joe Walsh / James Gang / Barnstorm _Week #56: A.O.R. Week– Polls 129-133:_ E L P | E.L.O. {Designated for Mr. Blue Sky} | Dire Straits / Mark & David Knoplfer {For Doper Whose Name I Lost} | Dave Edmunds _Week #57: Vintage Week – Polls 134-137:_ Four Seasons | Dion (And The Belmonts) {For 42Fish} | Drifters/Ben E King {For 42Fish} | The Coasters {For 42Fish} _Week #58: Shits & Giggles Week - Polls 138-140:_ Arrogant Worms {For vunderbob} | Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show {For Happy Lendervedder} | The Rutles _Week #59: Big Name Rap Week - Polls 141-143:_ De La Soul {For paulberserker & 42fish} | Dr. Dre {For 42fish} | Eminem {For anyone who doesn’t hate him} _Week #60: More Punks Week – Polls 144-147:_ The dB’s {For The Scrivener} | Bad Religion {For colour wolf} | The Adolescents _Unscheduled & Un-Seconded Requests_: Ruth Brown & Laverne Baker {For 42Fish} | Neil Diamond {For 42fish} **Lastly: 6@6 Posting Guidelines** 1st: Have a knowledge & appreciation for the artist(s) in the poll title. 2nd: Post your **6** favorite tracks from them. Cover versions & offshoots **are** acceptable. Segue tracks (written to be adjoined to a song from the same album) count as one song (i.e. The Abbey Road Medley & many Zappa tracks). _Try_ to be as accurate as possible when naming your favorite tracks. **Most importantly** : Due to the fact the 6@6 is confined to one weekly thread, If you’re going to vote for more than one artist please **make a separate post for each artist**. Without further ado…Prophets Week: Featured **Poll #113** : Billy Bragg (As requested by colour wolf & Snooooopy) Headliner **Poll #114** : Ani DiFranco (As requested by colour wolf) Supplemental **Poll #115** : Nick Drake ---
