Instead of the usual Elimination Sing-Off, the two remaining contestants will play one final Round between each other: Round 33: Sound Check: The Last Rehearsal
The two remaining Contestants will choose 4 Songs of their choice from any bands or artists that, at most, have only been used once this Season The Round will be judged like the Elimination Sing-Off Rounds and the Finale with songs pitted against each other. So, Contestant #1's first song will face off against Contestant #2's first song, and so on for four pairs of songs. Instead of points, the judges will vote on which song they prefer for each pair, with a Contestant winning a face-off by getting 3 or more votes. If a Contestant wins 3 or more of these face-offs, they will win the Round and move on to the Finale while the other Contestant, sadly, will be eliminated. If both contestants win 2 Rounds, the total votes will be added up to determine who wins. As there are 20 total votes, the Round can end in a tie. If that's the case, there will be a tie-breaker. It is of the utmost importance that each contestant sends in their list of 4 Songs in the order that they want them to be judged. The list of bands and artists that are ineligible for use this Round is (note looking for it, please give me a moment to post the list): {Spoiler}{Spoiler} AC/DC The Barenaked Ladies The Beach Boys The Beatles and Solo Bands Beck Billy Joel Bruce Springsteen Coldplay Creedence Clearwater Revival David Bowie Eric Clapton Foo Fighters Janis Joplin Johnny Cash Kanye West Katamari Damacy Soundtrack The Killers MGMT Macklemore Marina and the Diamonds Matt & Kim Ozzy Osbourne Pearl Jam Prince Queen Ray Charles Rob Zombie Social Distortion T.Rex Talking Heads Tegan and Sara Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

The only artists that are thus ineligible for use are those used again for the Double Dip and the What's in the Box rounds. I'm out and about, so I can't give you a list at the moment, but I will later tonight. If you have any questions, please let me know.

OT: All this Survivor talk makes me want the new season to start already, despite the fact that it's probably not going to be very good.

Back home, let me double check things. I'll post the banned artists in a moment here. Also edited the Round description a bit, so I hope it's clearer. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}

All songs have been received for Round 33.
This is what I'm going to do. To make sure that there won't be any controversy over song eligibility or second guessing over what contestants picked, I'm going to give the two elimination round contestants until midnight, as both are on now, to double check their songs and to put them in the order that they want them to be judged in, as the songs will be going head to head in the format I mentioned earlier. This is not a suggestion that they need to change anything but just an opportunity to do so.
I will ask the judges to double check on eligibility. There have been issues throughout the Season about the Past Song list. So, after the contestants finalize the songs and give me the order they want them to be judged in, I will ask the Judges to judge the songs as normal but to tell me, the moment it happens, if they suspect a repeat song has been used. This has happened only 3 or 4 times in 32 main rounds and numerous Elimination Sing-Offs but I want use to be absolutely sure that all our ducks are in a row (quack quack) and we are good to go. All three of our amazing contestants and, indeed all the contestants and the judges that have been apart of this Season, deserve this showdown to be 100% on the level. We have incredible contestants with unbelievable songs, so let's give them the best opportunity to shine.

Round 33: Sound Check: The Last Rehearsal fw91vs. Roxie DaggersTime to break kayfabe and strip it down. No guest host, no characters, no story. Just music . Here are the songs chosen by fw91 and Roxie Daggers. One will move on to face ANONYMOUS GM in the Finale, one will go home as a member of the Final Three of the most difficult FAN Idol Season yet. We've said a lot of things up to this point but let's have the music do the talking. Two contestants walk onto a stage, their hearts filled with music. It's time. Song 1 That's the Way- Led Zeppelin www.youtube.com/watch?v=TANKvE3sI3wvs. Love, Reign O'er Me- The Who www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNnyjAabTpoSong 2 All I Really Want- Alanis Morissette www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPqGOtgvHrkvs. Drumming Song- Florence + The Machine www.youtube.com/watch?v=boo2Zm69fhYSong 3 A Heavy Abacus- The Joy Formidable www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsGg_07VrX0vs. LDN- Lily Allen www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDEyhrnBP5kSong 4 Lightning Crashes- Live www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsJ4O-nSvegvs. Disarm- The Smashing Pumpkins www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1acEVmnVhI******************************************************* Interlude: Somewhere among the beaches of Hawai'i A lone figure watches the sun set, a guitar in hand, her mask lying on the sand. Strumming a few notes, checking the pitch of her voice, she plays another song as the tide washes in. Soon, very soon. She will be ready.
