Battle of the Bands (U2 vs. The Roots)
ROUND 3 BRACKET 3 (Modern Warfare)
Okay here's how the voting goes. Since the polls can easily be manipulated this is the voting system we will use:
If you post your vote with a nation of 75 posts or more, that vote counts as two. The poll votes count as 1. Technically your vote can be counted as three votes, if you vote both in the poll and post what you voted for.
However, even with this system in place this entire poll can be easily manipulated. So I ask you, please don't... Let's not cheat shall we?
Also, I'd like arguements from both sides on why that particular band (in this case, U2 or The Roots) should win. So please feel free to post long paragraphs regarding the merits of either U2 or The Roots.
The poll will run for exactly 1 day.
After the poll closes. Posted votes will not count.
GET TO IT!!!

To be honest, I've never heard The Roots, so that makes them infinitely more desirable than U2, who I dislike with a vengeance.
Hell I've never heard of Roots either... and something tells me this Round will have the smallest number of votes possible.

Jesus, these threads are really getting annoying, and you just keep bumping them. Why are you making threads about bands you don't even know?! And I honestly don't know how someone can even compare U2 and the Roots, excepts that the band members of both groups have a conscience. Other than that, they cater to totally different demographics. The roots, btw, are a Roots (gasp!)/hip hop band.

Go and find the thread where this all started and you'll understand it all a bit better. It's not a case of comparing bands, it's a question of which band you like best.

U2 simply because of their tenure. The roots are a bit too new to see how long they might last.
U2 wins...
