Foo Fighters dominated the division for the most part raking in 13 of the 15 possible votes. 6 of those 13 votes were first place and Grohl and company find themselves in the 9th spot on the overall leader board. Coldplay charged right behind with a good showing on 12 of 15 ballots. From there The Killers, Adele, Pete Yorn, Jack Johnson and Franz Ferdinand all racked up enough points and votes to move on to the semi-final round which will begin in Mid-October. The last spot was decided on a last minute ballot sent at 11:47pm Thursday night which nullified the first tie-breaking moment (where I send a random text to three friends who haven't voted for either of the two artists in the tie..Keys would have won that way as well) of the tourney yet. John Mayer and Alicia Keys had the same exact points and vote positions but the last ballot (Ballot 9, for those keeping score) had Keys in the 6th spot giving her one more point than Mayer. Gus Johnson would have loved to make the call. "Keys at the buzzer....WOOOOHHHH!!!""""
