WELCOME BACK TO BOTB!
It’s time to announce the results of the May 15th showdown.
BATTLE OF THE BANDS (BOTB), hosted by StMcC Presents Battle of the Bands is where you listen to different recordings and vote for the one you like best. Two “Battles” per month, on the 1st and 15th. (Please note: Effective July 2017, I switched to once a month on the 15th only. This will allow me more time to share other types of material with you.) Votes will be tallied and posted the following week.
This one was looking like another dreaded blowout, at first. There was a definite turning of the tide after a couple of days, though, and it became a tight battle. Who doesn’t love those? 😀 Some of you had trouble deciding (and Chris ruled it a tie), as did I. In the end, I couldn’t deny the attraction to Joe’s wicked blues guitar and his rough-hewn vocals. Sorry, Michael! I still love you.
Here’s how it played out:
JOE BONAMASSA
Birgit, Chris 0.5, Debbie, Gilly, John, Mary, Michele, Mike, Myke, Roland
Total: 9.5
~~~~~~~~
MICHAEL BUBLÉ
Arlee, Cathy, Chris 0.5, Clowie, Eugenia, Mimi, Stephen
Total: 6.5
AND THE WINNER IS,
JOE BONAMASSA!
“Let The Good Times Roll”
You can be sure that Joe Bonamassa will be featured here again.
Bloody amazing, he is!

Um… I think you spelled the winner’s name wrong… It’s M-I-C-H-A-E-L… 😀 – Congratulations to Joe. He was okay too I guess.
I am so glad that Joe won this battle so that you presented us with his Let the Good Times Roll. Awesome!! He’s incredible. And “laissez les bon temps rouler” all the way! Amen to that. I’m ready for some, that’s for sure.
Excellent battle, I really enjoyed and I’m totally digging the video your included here. Thanks Debbie!

Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner!
Wow! One never knows how these battles will turn out! This one was fun with a surprise ending.
Hokey-Smoke ‘n’ Hoo-Wee!! What a terrific Battle. And what a turnaround. When I voted, it looked like Buble was taking the lumber to Joe, and I was bemoaning the fact that the Battle was a heckuva lot better’n the voting trend would seem to indicate.
But to find that Joe actually wound up winning – Wow!
As I mentioned on John’s blog, overall, I think this was the best round of BOTB we’ve collectively had in awhile. Everyone had their A-Game going.
Well done, DEBBIE!

That was surprising after seeing the early voting, but that’s part of the fun!
Debbie,
Ha, I had to laugh with the half point on each! I think this is the first time anyone has split their vote that I’ve seen anyhow. My pick didn’t win but it was a good battle and a lot closer matched then mine. I have a battle set mashup with my 4M post. Hopefully, you’ll get a chance to join me if not before that time. Have a good evening, my friend!
It was a decent outcome even though my pick was only a runner-up. Both were good so it was a tough choice.
