Welcome back to #BOTB!
Time to announce the results of the June 1st showdown.
BATTLE OF THE BANDS (BOTB), hosted by StMcC Presents Battle of the Bands is where you listen to different recordings of the same song and vote for the one you like best. Two “Battles” per month, on the 1st and 15th. (Please note: Effective July 2017, some of us will be switching to once a month on the 15th. Others may opt to continue with twice a month.) Votes will be tallied and posted the following week.
Firstly, apologies to everyone for not responding to comments on the original post. Life and yard work (finally, some good weather!) got in the way. It seems that lopsided battles have become the norm around here.
Oh well, at least there wasn’t a shutout! While most of you enjoyed The Lounge Kittens’ unusual take on the song, the Queen of Rock ‘N’ Roll won out. Joan Jett got my vote as well because I cant say ‘no’ to my favourite Rockchick. Here’s how it went down:
JOAN JETT
Arlee, C.W. Martin, Cathy K, Debbie, John, Mary B., Michele, Myke T.
Total: 8
~~~~~~~~
THE LOUNGE KITTENS
Birgit, G.B. Miller, Janie, Stephen
Total: 4
And the winner is:
JOAN JETT!
Here’s the winner once more, in a live performance:
That’s what I call ROCK ‘N’ ROLL!
Don’t forget to check back with the others for their BOTB results:

Congratulations to Joan for a great showing.
Congratulations to Debbie for hosting this spirited contest.
Congratulations to me… for winning!
This is two in a row. Might we be seeing the onset of a trend?
Probably not…
Uber phenomenal music! 🙂
I’ve been out of circ too but reasons other than yard work (don’t have a yard here 🙂
Looking forward to seeing you at the WEP and the photo essay!
Have a lovely week.

A two-to-one vote differential and yet it still was not a blowout. (According to my definition, an official blowout begins with a 6-vote margin or more.) So, not bad.
Just got back from a much needed and many years overdue vacation.
I can’t even imagine who will win my next Battle. I think it’ll be very close — made even closer because the votes will be split among 3 different performers.
See ya on the 15th, DEBBIE.

I’m not surprised that Joan Jett took this one. But those Lounge Kittens were fun! I enjoyed their video.
Hope you’re having a good weekend Debbie!
Michele at Angels Bark
I don’t mind that my choice lost to Joan Jett.
Love,
Janie
I’ve been a bit out of the blogging biz of late, but other reasons than yard work I assure you. Hard to beat a rocker’s version of a rock song.

Debbie,
No worries. I’m taking things really easy as you know in Blogosphere. I did speed things up a bit with my original plan to share the result next week and will post them at midnight. We have yard work to do, too. The weather hasn’t cooperated and DH hasn’t felt well for the past few days. This weekend is our anniversary so no work planned because I want to relax and enjoy some special time. 😀 I wonder what to do? Think. Think. Think. It’s good to be on the winning side of a battle. This isn’t always the case for me. Have a good evening and weekend. TTFN, my friend! 😉
