I shortlisted PJ this round but the theme link was too tenuous.

Also bolded the acts I know and it's an embarrassing 6 Because of this though I'd be extra keen to see the festival if it was in my neck of the woods! I'd be especially keen to see Ela Minus who's been shortlisted plenty of times for rounds.

I only know 6 of them too but a slightly different 6 hahaha.
