I found this round relatively painless since most of my big favorites are already out of the running. I'd be OK seeing any one of these songs take the prize, with the possible exception of MM. 1. **Nora** vs Courier 2. Mary Magdalene vs. **Reunion Hill** 3. Transit vs. **Fishing** 4. You Stay Here vs. **Wisteria** ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2013 10:52:46 -0800 From: Subject: Re: [RS] The Elite Eight. >> Elite eight - These are all hard!!! << I guess that's why there's chocolate and lima beans: my four choices of Courier, Reunion Hill, Transit and Wisteria are totally easy slam-dunks for me, while Norman picks the other option (Nora, Mary, Fishing, You Stay Here) in all four pairings. Heh. RG ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 01 Mar 2013 09:52:57 -0500 From: "Michael & Linda Marmer" Subject: Re: [RS] The Elite Eight. Okay my vote and vote often. No? Can't do that.

Ugh, now this is getting tough, first one Courier, but the rest, WOW, this is going to be real hard to decide. Although Nora is a great song too, but Courier. Mary Magdalene vs. Reunion Hill, that is going to very had for me to decide. Mike 1. Nora vs Courier 2. Mary Magdalene vs. Reunion Hill 3. Transit vs. Fishing 4. You Stay Here vs. Wisteria Voting ends next Thursday. RG ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2013 09:53:09 -0500 From: Jeff Bernstein Subject: Re: [RS] The Elite Eight.

I'm in accord with what a couple of others have said, since a number of my faves hit the skids earlier on. Still hard, because at least six of these are high on my own list and it's sad to see any of them go. But in fact, only #1 took me more than a quick thought. In most cases, love one, love the other more. 1. Nora 2. Reunion Hill 3. Transit 4. Wisteria Shelda ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2013 6:26:02 -0800 From: Subject: [RS] The Elite Eight. As Vanessa mentioned, the last of the songs from Richard's "late period" have left the building as we introduce an Elite Eight made up of two songs from "Sparrows Point," two from "Blue Divide," one from "Reunion Hill" and three from "Somewhere Near Paterson." 1. Nora vs Courier 2. Mary Magdalene vs. Reunion Hill 3. Transit vs. Fishing 4. You Stay Here vs. Wisteria Voting ends next Thursday.

This also means that every single post-SNP song has been knocked out of the competition. It will be interesting to see how much longer "Wisteria" and "Transit" last.

Once there, click on BROWSE and then ARTISTS. A list will pop up with the most popular artists in the database, but you can click on a letter (of the First name) to find a specific artist; e.g., the collections of Richard will be under R, not S. It's then arranged by year. ================== Ken Yavit & Donna Ryder Glenside House Concerts Glenside, PA 215-572-7715 Glenside House Concerts website: http://tinyurl.com/GlensideHouseConcerts ALL CONCERTS ARE ON SATURDAYS AT 8PM UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED (Info provided so you can save the date.

This'll be fun. :) I'm not sure if Google Docs (sorry, Google Drive now) spreadsheets are machine-readable, but they're easy to collaborate on. I think I'd have to share the document with specific email addresses, not the group email address, so I can just add permissions for people as they say they're interested. Vanessa and Johannes will be added first, and I'll make it so you can also add people. As I'm setting this up, do people have a preference as to order of show entries? Newest to oldest, or oldest to newest? (I.e., should new shows be added on top or at the bottom?) Columns can be rearranged easily, but we should set up the other from the get-go.

One more thought on the format: a "type of concert" column would make sense, in my opinion. (Regular concert, house concert, opening for someone else, festival, workshop, radio show, ...) And at some point we might want to include Cry Cry Cry concerts and Richard's tour(s) with Joan Baez. Personally, I'm a bit curious just how many shows he's already played (more than 1000 I'd guess). - -Johannes ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2013 12:23:05 -0800 From: Subject: Re: [RS] Elite Eight >> Not sure how it came to be that I got the results from Norman's "Color Commentary" post and not the digest << Yeah, like I mentioned the other day, in addition to the messages within a Digest occasionally appearing in random order, some messages seem to be not showing up in the Digest at all, although they're showing up as individual emails to those who are signed up for that version of the list. So, again, for anyone who needs help switching from Digest to regular, feel free to let me know, or check the list info document at www.smoe.org/lists/shindell-list.info.
