knew I met the right person for me when early on I found out three of her favorite bands were the Blue Nile, Prefab Sprout, and the Go-Betweens.

three months pass...

I'm interested in opinions. I've had a Go-Betweens poll in the artist poll queue for some time and feel I should poll solo/side-projects as well when the time comes. Firstly, can I assume there's likely to be sufficient interest in such material to sustain a separate side-poll?

There are actually slightly more commercially-available solo/side-project tracks (at least 200) than Go-Betweens tracks. More than enough to warrant it, in theory. I'm inclined to poll "everything else" separately, as I fear that the main attraction would crowd out solo material on a consolidated ballot.

Combining all the LPs for the album ballot seems less problematic, perhaps even ideal, if one is allowed to select up to, say, 10 albums.

Any thoughts appreciated...

"everything else" side-poll and "whatever you like" albums poll seems entirely tidy and sensible.

Okay, cheers.

Now... seems like a good time to listen to Cleopatra Wong.
