    I hope everyone is still trying - the past few days were really tough!

    Today was easy however!

    I missed the last two days' questions. Oh darn.

    I decided to go easy on everyone today :grinning: Although I almost used a live pic circa "TIALD...", but I figured people would've had to be a hardcore fan to get it.
    And mostly everyone is still playing... there are currently a few people tied for the lead, some people only 1 point behind, and then a few that are only 2 points back. Looks like it's all going to come down to next week!

    works been picking up the last few days so I've been slowing down - I've enjoyed looking at this when I have the time!

    Damn! I just saw this, I could've been tearing this thing up! Alas, let me know the next time you start something like this. I assume at this point I have no chance of competing.

    The final week is underway! We'll see what the scores look like at the end, but unless someone runs away with it this week, i'm thinking there may be a final challenge for those that qualify.

    Final challenge has been posted!

    Day 20: Mark Linkous. I hope no one objects to me using him. But to me, he's just one of those rare cases of an indie artist who somehow spent their entire career on a major.

    No objections here. Mark Linkous has been around and collaborated with tons of well known artists. Thanks for putting the LIF together. Good luck to the other finalist!

    After nearly a month and a half, we finally have a winner! I need to thank the 3 finalists, you all submitted some really good stuff. I honestly enjoyed everything. And I'm sorry for the wait, but it took longer than I expected to dig into everything. Someone submitted an album with 42 songs on it :grimacing:. But this person also happens to be the winner... congrats to Rake! Send me your details!

    care to share what the suggested music was?

    i'd venture to guess anyone else following this thread wouldn't mind finding something new also.
