I know there are people out there like me who in the month of march go crazy for college basketball. I am an avid music lover and thought it would be fun to have a tournament in the vein of March Madness. I got the top billing of the Coachella intial lineup and of the Bonnaroo intial lineup and ranked them into regions according to their billing order. They are seperated into 4 regions. Each region has a rank of 1-16. The first round match ups are Bonnaroo vs. Coachella but from there who knows. First round we will vote for 2 days on each region I will post the new matchups after 2 days in this thread. This is all out of fun so no hurt feelings please. I would appreciate unbiased opinions. Here is the first region matchups. The Mojave Region Match up #1 1. Rage Against the Machine vs 16.North Mississippi All-Stars Match up #2 8. The Decemberists vs. 9. Willie Nelson Match up #3 5. Artic Monkeys vs. 12.DJ Shadow Match up #4 4. Manu Chao vs. 13. Kaiser Chiefs Match up #5 6. Damien Rice vs. 11. Faithless Match up #6 3. Interpol vs. 14. Keller Williams Match up #7 7. Paul Van Dyk vs. 10. Wolfmother Match up #8 2. The White Stripes vs. 15. LCD Soundsystem

Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long So if I settle back and chill will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream? I thought it was the Story of the World!
1. Rage 2. Willie 3. DJ Shadow 4. Manu Chao 5. Faithless 6. Interpol 7. PVD 8. White Stripes
Great Idea. I was trying to figure out how you did your seeding, but once I realized that you have the Decemberists coming from the Roo side, it started to make sense.

Yeah i thought about putting Bonnaroo next to the artist playing both festivals but i didn't want anyone to vote just for Roo.

Makes sense, it was just weird because I had already put Willie on the Roo line-up and the Decemberists on Chella. And it took me ten minutes to figure it out the right way. I dont think that my brain is firing on all cylinders right now.

Matchup 1: Rage Matchup 2: Willie Matchup 3: Arctic Monkeys (in a close one) Matchup 4: Manu Chao (by default 'cause the Kaiser Chiefs are not good) Matchup 5: Faithless Matchup 6: Interpol Matchup 7: Wolfmother Matchup 8: The White Stripes (by default as Jack White wins nearly every matchup for being Jack White)
Only 3 of 8 choices to Bonnaroo's lineup here, but BONNAROO > Coachella every time. No place like the South, no people like Roo people. Ol dude said it best, "They could have a monkey and a bongo and we would have a great time". Bonnarooooooooooo!
Match up #1 Rage Against the Machine Match up #2 Willie Nelson (Shotgun Willie a 9 seed?! Rage better watch out in the second round) Match up #3 DJ Shadow Match up #4 Manu Chao Match up #5 Faithless (Damien never saw it coming) Match up #6 Keller Williams (I listen to Interpol more frequently, but they're not that great live. Keller on the other hand...) Match up #7 Paul Van Dyk Match up #8 The White Stripes (Honestly, by a hair because LCD Soundsystem is really that good)

I just noticed I picked Roo acts in 3 pretty big 'upsets'. Being the Roo obsessive that I am, this bracket game is already getting me even more geeked for June.
