No idea what etiquette is, so I'll wait at least until the Smashing Pumpkins rollout is done.

Oh, which ends today, looks like. I'll make it a point to open that up soon.

The SP rollout started today and I think it ends on Friday.

My mistake. I thought they were wrapping up the songs but it was just albums.
― "Minneapolis" (barf) (Eric H.), Wednesday, 4 April 2018 17:48 (six years ago) link
That sounds great Eric, you can be poll #88. I hope there is a side poll for the Sugercubes.

Bang Bang You're Dead... POLL In Your Head - ILM Artist Poll #87 - SMASHING PUMPKINS - Results
Yeah, planning on side polling the albums + Sugarcubes tunes. But I think B-sides can be part of the main poll.

Also, something I'd been wondering about but too lazy to investigate. Has there been a '90s dance music poll?
― "Minneapolis" (barf) (Eric H.), Thursday, 5 April 2018 14:54 (six years ago) link
that would be amazing
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Thursday, 5 April 2018 14:55 (six years ago) link
I volunteer to tabulate that one too, if not.

there's been a '90s electronic music poll, but
― mookieproof, Thursday, 5 April 2018 15:04 (six years ago) link
... not an '80s dance poll, though

Has there been a '90s dance music poll?
I seem to remember one about five years ago
― the salacious inaudible (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Thursday, 5 April 2018 17:11 (six years ago) link
I checked the results of the '90s electronic poll and it had an acceptable amount of dancey-ness in it. Probably don't need a repoll.

... when would be a cool time to run a kylie minogue poll? i've never done one of these before so i'm a little clueless
― flamenco drop (BradNelson), Saturday, 14 April 2018 20:33 (six years ago) link
you can open voting right when Bjork concludes. good luck and have fun. i was so nerves doing my first one, which happened to be New Order.

Does anybody want to do something now? With all due respect, Pre 1900 seems like it would get 10 ballots max. Maybe I'm wrong. ― kornrulez6969, Monday, February 12, 2018 12:58 AM (seven hours ago) Bookmark Flag Post PermalinkWell just to explain my reasoning, I've been making mixes for these years over here and there are full packs of mp3s ready to download, so maybe could get a little over 10 ballots. Then could do 1900s next year, then 1910s, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s - think 60s onwards has been done enough.― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Monday, February 12, 2018 8:15 AM (two months ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Any input on this? I would like to run it, but if there's zero interest then fair enough, I won't bother.

i'm the kinda person who could do a top forty ballot for just mccartney by himself. all of them together seems like it'd be REAL tough to make the cuts/inclusions, but that might make it pretty interesting!

I wonder if there might *just* be enough interest for a Go-Betweens poll. A number of ILMers have written quite eloquently about them, at least. I'd happily put it to the test if y'all add me to the queue.
