A Capella Wars

^ "Fakepella"

Well, I've now learnt what beat-boxing is, so that was interesting. I was checking out a live a capella festival clip the other day, in which the presenter announced, " This is a capella... there is guitar accompaniment but it's still a capella." Maybe nobody takes a hard-line purist stand any longer.

Recapping, we are now at :-

Pentoxic : 2
Sleeping Lion : 1

Hardly a decisive victory, but perhaps it's time to move on ...

For Lisna,

Spoiler for off topic beatbox:

Thanks, DwnWthVwls. That's clever, but I don't think I'll be tracking down any beat-box albums. Do you listen to beat-boxing much ?

DwnWthVwls · 05-31-2015, 11:37 AM

Not particularly. I think it's cool but don't enjoy listening to it all that much. It's a nice treat every now and then.

My vote goes for the Lion King, which ties things at

Penta - 2
Lion - 2

Pentoxic: 2
Sleeping Lion: 3

I wasn't a huge fan of the beatboxing, and I absolutely love the Lion song, so it was an easy call.

I guess this thread is dead? Is anyone in line to go next.

^ I'd be happy to see this thread continue. What do you think, Frownland?

I see it's my turn. Sorry for dropping the ball, fellows--I had a death in the family recently and haven't had much time for MB. I'll try and dig up something tomorrow.

Hey, I'm really sorry to hear that, Pet_Sounds. I hope you are not feeling too distraught.

Actually, I think the delay has been Frownland's, who should've declared the last round closed - unless he alerted you by PM.

Anyway, this post is to mention that, on my computer at any rate, only your "So it goes" option opens up. Is anybody else having trouble?

Thanks for pointing that out, Lisna. Does it display now?
