On 2+2 we used to play Walrus. For anyone not familiar, one person is the game master and there are a bunch of other entrants. The game master names a number of categories, which can be anything, and the entrants all submit one song for each category. The idea is generally to expose the game master to music they haven’t heard before, (s)he then ranks the songs in each category in order of subjective preference and does a reveal. At the end, the entrant scoring most points is the winner.

Anyone keen to play?

I will then reveal them in a fu…

Louis Cyphre's Walrus

Walrus Round 2 with your host Louis Cyphre MUSIC TASTES I mainly listen to rock and metal (from vanilla to extreme) and their siblings, cousins and bastards.
