Headbang - 14 November, 2025 - Final votes

Votes now received from the 9 who watched all 49 videos at Friday's Headbang. A total of 15 tracks  were nominated and this was the final pecking order:


Nigel Kennedy's stellar performance with The Who was the clear winner with 4 nominations, scoring 10 points in all. Arcade Fire's lively performance at Austin City Limits tied with The Jam's cover of Ray Davies' David Watts with bass player Bruce Foxton in fine voice on one of his rare lead vocals with the band.

5 of the nominated tracks were live performances in the 70's, despite video and audio technologies not being as good as they are now. The 15 tracks were spread across 8 of the 10 themes with the 2nd theme - Violins - receiving nominations for 4 of their 5 tracks.

Voting for the ranking of the themes was:


For a change, voting in the polls on the night was fairly consistent with the final votes above.

As regards the date for the next Headbang, Friday 13th March is the only date when all 12 of us appear, at this stage, to be available.
