ILM Ballot Polls for 2014 and beyond -- order, timing, "I would have voted if I'd known about it," etc

Still impatiently waiting to run that Bjork poll, yeah.

Extreme metal is still in progress, right?

yes it is, i forgot about it since i didn't see it on the first page.

Let's get the next one started. Metal is a separate slow track.

seems like it should be one of these:

Stephin Merritt - Gukbe
Fairport Convention et al (R Thompson, S Denny) - Billy Dods
Nirvana - Gavin, Leeds (finished) and added to queue))
Can - Z S
Tom Petty - rogermexico
Jimi Hendrix - some dude

i would be up for doing the Hendrix poll in Jan or Feb

hmm... are we feeling petty this holiday season?

not to jump the line. i'd love to spend a couple weeks with any of the acts on that list before we quiet down for christmas.

It is time for a Duke Ellington poll, somebody!

Petty would be awesome whenever it happens

Petty would be interesting i might vote in that one

Would be totally up for participating in an Ellington poll: would it be a poll of recordings or compositions?

Would consider running a Cage or Stockhausen or Reich poll if people were up for it.

Let's do Tom Petty

what do you say, tom?

saying it now: if American Girl wins that will be lame

all righty! should we open it over the US thanksgiving holiday?

I'm into the Petty poll! Kick it off asap imo

awesome. I'm a little jammed up this weekend but I'll try to get the voting thread opened by Sunday evening

shakey this is going to be a very tough ballot to handicap!

aw man i already used the best possible title: THE RATING IS THE HARDEST PART: Tom Petty HARD PROMISES POLL

just get to the point and poll another joint

Runnin' Down A POLL

Listen To Your Votes

Now I'm Free / Free POLLin' (Free POLLin', now I'm free POLLin')

Oh My My, Oh Hell Yes, You Got To POLL On That, ILX

you do
have
to poll
like a refugee

Yeah she POLLS so right, she is all I need tonight

And I'm a bad POLL, cause I don't even miss her

STOP DRAGGIN MY POLL AROUND

You POLL Me

Some days are diamonds, some POLLS are rocks

looks like we kept voting open for a couple of weeks on Nirvana. same sound about right for Petty?

I guess that works, but I can already basically fill out a full ballot just off the top of my head.

i'd be fine with less too, but sunday evenings are good for getting those final ballots in... hmm...

Remember that there's a huge US travel holiday this week...

true true. two week window it is.

We haven't sorted out the exact schedule for EOY yet but you have ~3 weeks before noms even open

MMM-Hmmmmmm
Whooahoooahoooo
I'm having trouble
Letting you Poll

I'M PREEE... PRE-POLLIN' - ILM Artist Poll #71 - Tom Petty (discussion/lobbying)

I wanna do a The Cars/Ric Ocasek poll. Would folks be interested?

as long as it is deep, yeah

heh

would vote early and often

lol mookie

Cars/Ric Ocasek poll sounds fantastic, especially if we can vote for solo tracks by the other Cars as well

yeah...maybe side poll of Ocasek productions too

I've got a NIN one coming up about six months I guess, but I've sort of gone off them a bit since volunteering to do it. Trouble is I'm not sure any of my alternative ideas would get enough support, to whit: Mike Patton, Four Tet, Squarepusher, Roots Manuva.

i was looking forward to the nin :(

Well maybe I'll still do it. I'll have to come up with a better title than "Head like a POLL" though.
