Decades Feeder Bracket - Wild Card 80s Week 2 Final 8

[MetalDog]

In an exact copy of the 90s Bracket, our seeds are the same.  Again most of the matchups were close with no more than a two vote swing.
With two exceptions: Tom Petty and the Rolling Stones.  Having done these nigh on a year, I have found that the folks who vote consistently in these polls are partial to Petty and the Stones.  Nothing wrong with that, and I keep putting them in there to be voted on, but, can't you guys pick anything else? ;)


The 1/8

The 4/5

The 3/11

The 2/7

I wonder Tom Petty would've gotten the same amount of love if he hadn't passed right around the time you were starting all this

[Steelgrave]

I think he would. Tom's Super Bowl halftime show was a resurgence for him and he was one of those artists that everyone just seemed to like. No one's favorite, perhaps, but someone you liked to hear.

I've seen him live a few times, and it was a great show every time.  I'm a fan, though not perhaps as die-hard as some others.  It just feels like the "Tom Petty Appreciation Tour" has kicked into higher gear since he died.  Not that he doesn't deserve it, mind you - they guy was a great performer for over 40 years.
