Kiss Guitar Solo Poll at Kissfaq ending today

Post by Slayer »

Kissfaq is trying to poll up the 64 best Kiss Guitar Solos for those that are members there and are interested in such things. They have 51 that they are going roll with and the want help with 13 more from the members. I will paste in for your review the poll criteria and 51 songs already picked and then share with you the 13 that I shared. Add some additional Vinnie Songs if you are inclined as I did.

Welcome to the KISS Guitar Solo Madness invitational round.

At this point, to round out the field of 64, FAQ members are asked to choose 13 "special invitation" solos. Members can choose any 13 guitar solos (within the eligibility requirements, see below) that are not among the list of 51 solos that have already received automatic bids. In essence, this is your opportunity to "write in" solos that are not only your favorites, but solos you feel were passed over in the qualifier rounds.

Member lists will be tallied and the 13 solos garnering the most votes will be added to the bracket, setting the KISS Guitar Solo Madness field of 64. (Tie-breakers will be included, if necessary.)

You may pick solos from:
- Any of the 24 KISS studio albums (including the 1978 solo albums)
- Any of the studio recordings on "Alive II," "Killers" and "Smashes, Thrashes & Hits"
- "Strutter '78" and "Sweet Pain" (Ace Frehley's solo) are eligible
Note: live albums are not eligible.

Please fill in your 13 solos with a numerated list:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
11.
12.
13.

This round will be open from Friday, March 22 to Monday, March 24. And remember, the more members that vote the better, so please take a moment to participate.

There are sure a lot of Frehley Lovers in this world :-)


Thank you for participating. Voting is now closed.

Here are the 13 invitational round solos moving on to the tournament:

Love 'Em And Leave 'Em (19 votes)
I Want You (17 votes)
Deuce (15 votes: 67 points)
Saint And Sinner (15 votes: 85 points)
A World Without Heroes (14 votes)
Firehouse (13 votes)
King Of The Mountain (12 votes)
Got To Choose (11 votes: 60 points)
Love Gun (11 votes: 63 points)
War Machine (11 votes: 86 points)
Sure Know Something (10 votes: 72 points)
What Makes The World Go 'Round (10 votes: 72 points)
Snow Blind (10 votes: 78 points)

Just missing the cut was:

Not For The Innocent (10 votes: 83 points)
Write-in solos advanced according to one factor: number of write-in votes. In the case of ties, the solo with the lowest number of points garnered the higher seed. Not For The Innocent tied with Sure Know Something, Snow Blind and What Makes The World Go 'Round with 10 votes but lost out given it had a higher amount of points.*

* Since solos were ranked 1-13, a lower amount of points is better in this case.
