It would be hard to not have duplicates if bands were in the picture. Either way is great with me but it is a question that we're are going to run into really fast
Do you guys want the band category back?
If John Lennon is picked, "The Beatles" can still be picked.

I was going to make the geographical ones anybody... either singer or band.

We can also have Wildcard Singer and Wildcard Band.

Thoughts?

As for my fellow GMs, if any of you guys pick my sleeper picks, I'll find out where you live and burn down your house.

I will randomize the list of names.
I don't think it matters much cause it's a long draft and it snakes back and forth.

I know the hour is late, but I there is one category idea I came up with last night that might be interesting. Album cover. Just an idea, but album covers have been an important part of rock history and most people have their favorites.

Thoughts? Too late?

Good idea - might be too late, but make it part of your campaign when you pick favorite album. Post the album cover.

Yeah I think it's too late.. plus if you add 1 category, you'd have to add 2.
18 categories is alot already.

Troutman, just noticed your 'title'....one of the most underrated SNL recurring characters of all time and one of a thousand great Phil Hartman moments!

Well done.

Can't take credit for it - not sure if was meant as an insult or compliment.

"When I see a solar eclipse, like the one I went to last year in Hawaii, I think 'Oh no! Is the moon eating the sun?' I don't know. Because I'm a caveman -- that's the way I think. There is one thing I DO know... which is that my client is is entitled to several million dollars or more in both compensatory and punitive damages for an injury".

You lost me. You can't take credit for what? Enjoying a lost SNL classic? It was definitely a compliment.
