One more thing as we say farewell to the 1989 tournament: earlier today I was in an Uber and overheard “Free Fallin’” and “If I Could Turn Back Time” back-to-back - on the “oldies” station.

Which one are you? I’m We Are The Brackets Gone Wild!

I think so!

@lanna.bsky.social Are you Cure Your Enthusiasm?

There will be a wrap-up newsletter tomorrow or the weekend, and I’ll talk about contest winners and the timeline for the upcoming Best Album of 2001 tournament. (Spoiler: probably won’t rev that up until Jan.) Until then, everyone enjoy your Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving-adjacent day!

Thanks again! I bumped up to the top 20 and that’s good enough for me. 🏆 B-Sky Bouillabaisse is the bracket champ!

No. 1 baby! 🥇

Great story! And in this universe, maybe The Creatures, BOOMERANG would be a top 32 seed. 😢

We’re at 351 now!

it's the healthiest thing we can do for the internet!!!

y'all can get started for free on neocities!! it's like geocities but now!!! neocities.org go get started!!!

Also I just remembered that this tournament started on Memorial Day weekend and is ending on Thanksgiving! Time flies.

I’m a vegetarian but I did have tomato soup last night. ☺️

I cancelled my account recently because Spotify is bad on so many levels lmao.

I always say this but there are always newcomers: Spotify's listed release dates are completely untrustworthy

Pretty much how I feel about PAUL’S BOUTIQUE.

Both are great, this has been a really fun tournament! Thanks to Kent and this neat little community! I voted for the one I have a longer personal history with as well as the one that benefits my bracket (DOOLITTLE).
