With its heavy rhythms and fiery vocals, this rendition eclipsed even the Stones’ version.
Them – “Route 66”
“Route 66” (1965 – original from 1946)
Just like the Stones, the Northern Irish band Them included a cover of “Route 66” on their debut album.
Frenetic and Fiery
Them
Doors Opening for Them
In 1965, Them toured Great Britain. In 1966, the band toured the US, where it had a 2-week gig at the infamous LA club Whisky a Go Go. The opening band was an up’n’coming LA band called The Doors.
Musta been Glorious
On the final night at the Whiskey, Them and The Doors jammed together on stage, respectively led by their singers Van Morrison and Jim Morrison. Together, the bands played a 20-minute version of Van Morrison’s now-classic song “Gloria,” followed by a 25-minute version of Wilson Pickett’s hit “In the Midnight Hour.” (Image source)

You just put in a bid on therising that loses you money...
pay attention next time....
It also cost everyone else money...
The worst thing is if you waited 7 mins.
you could have gotten a full power bid and much better payout.
And not screw over 8 other bidders!
why did you

I'm sorry if your profits slipped, but you really have no reason to blame me or anyone else for that.
Whenever I post a bid, it is always within the "Suggested Bid." So, rest assured, I always "pay attention" to that.
Please realize that bidding by its very nature involves risk. I do what I can to minimize that risk, not only for myself, but also for everyone else. You can rest assured that it is not my intention to screw over any other bidders.
But occasionally, 2 or even 3 late bids cross each other at the same time.
As a result the profits might slip into negative territory.
(You understand, there is a delay between the time someone "Clicks Bid" and the time the actual bid is registered on SBTracker, don't you?)
If you're not willing to take the risk, and if you want to blame others when the risk rises up and bites you, then you should not employ the bid bots.

nO IT WAS NOT.... YOU DID NOT LOOK AT THE BIDS ALREADY THERE....
The suggested max does not take into account the other bids, you need to look at the details
button and see who has already placed money for the votes. I's not a bid its a payment.
there was already $22 for a $38 upvote that means with the 25% curation and 15% max roi the total was roughly $30.50, meaning there was only about $7.50 left which meant you could bid only $5.25 to get a 15% roi. instead you voted over $11 which meant you did not even get the 25% curation paid back and so you actually lost 17%!
90% of of us who use the upvote market do not jump on a bot bid if it will harm another person FOR 4 IMPORTANT REASONS
My suggestion is you learn to read the information shown to you, or use a service like Steemium to prevent your lose.
Here's the big thing you actually spent $5 more then you needed to for that exact same vote.
Tell you what next time you want to vote send me the money and I'll take half and get you the same upvote you would have paid for.....
SIMPLY PUT YOUR LAST LINE SAYS ...YOU SHOULD NOT USE BID BOTS
You should heed your own statement....
A fool and his money are soon parted!

A few points ...
1 -- The "Max Suggested Bid" does indeed take into account the other (previous) bids. That's why it changes as more bids are made. (As for earning the full curation percentage, it's rare that anyone does so. Most often, that ROI drops into the 1%–5% range before the upvote is made.)
2 -- I always send my bids at the "13:00-minute to Next Vote" mark. As I mentioned above, sometimes late bids cross, and that's what happened yesterday with my bid on this post. So, when I clicked and sent my bid, there was much more than "$7.50" remaining. Unfortunately, another bidder or two also sent a bid at the same time, and then, when both of our bids were registered on SBTracker, the profits slipped into negative territory. It's unfortunate, but that's the risk we ALL take.
3 -- I've been using SBT for over a year. At the beginning, I too last some money, but since then, I've done quite well – never at the expense of others. Sometimes, I've lost a bit of money when late bids have crossed or when someone has sent in a huge bid after my bid. At those times, I've accepted that such risks are part of any bidding process, and have never complained to anyone else that their bid cost me money. (If you bid at an auction or on E-Bay or if you bet on sports or anything else, the risk is always there.)
4 -- As for your statement "It's not a bid, it's a payment," that's simply wrong. That's why they are called bid bots, and that's why they use the terms "max bid," "total bids," and "suggested bids."
Again, I'm sorry that your profits slipped, and I'm very sorry that you cannot understand the nature and risk of "BIDDING," of using the "BID BOTS." Just remember ... "It's not a payment, it's a bid."
