I promised Dawn I would do a musical tournament here on her wonderful blog. At first me and her was going do it together but she doesn’t have the extra time to spare. So I told her I would take care of it and I thought I wouldn’t have time for it either until early next year. Well, guess what the tournament is back on track for it’s original September start. Actually it will kick off Monday, August 29th. There are a total of 64 musicals spread over 4 brackets: 20's/30’s; 1940’s; 1950’s; and the 1960’s. The first week will have the 20's/30’s and the following weeks will focus on the remaining eras. Each era will be comprised of 16 films. I used Wikipedia as the source of all time greatest musicals and made the selections. It wasn’t easy and just like my tournaments I did over on my blog, All Good Things, there are some great choices that got left out. But I do believe I got the majority of the best musicals possible and it should be an exciting tournament. The voting polls will be on the sidebar and only one vote per person will be allowed, so choose your favorites carefully. The first round will last a few days and then the second round will begin almost immediately. I will post the first era matches within a few days. I just wanted to let everyone know that this tournament was coming soon. Have a great day.
Oh and here's the link to Dawn's wonderful blog: Singin' and Dancing Back In Time
Looking forward for this..
ReplyDeleteI can not believe it.. That is very sweet of you. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteSounds fun...I guess I better sign up to follow that blog. I follow Dawn's Noir and Chick Flicks (which I love), but I didn't know she had another one.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for this! I love the classic musicals like nothing else and haven't had a chance to indulge in them lately. Following Dawn's blog now, too.
