Thread for coordinating the order and timing of ILM ballot polls

I'll do a Byrds and offshoots poll which includes Gene Clark, Gram Parsons, David Crosby, Roger McGuinn and the rest

Actually, I'd like to do a "Covers" poll. All cover versions of previously recorded songs. That could be fun.

I'm gonna keep my place in line for Stiff Records, but I may change the topic at some point. Not sure it would be much of a draw after Stax only got 20-something ballots.

More like 10 :(

don't care if the Roxy Music poll cuts in line ahead of me

great idea. also i didn't want to mess with the numbers, as we have 'B' whenever necessary. Velvet Underground (plus) was the only thing that got moved under my watch.

and yes ILM Classic Rock Poll is going to be massive.

thanks Doctor Casino!

OK, PF poll on the tarmac and ready to roll...

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Giving up Classic Rock may prove my greatest regret as an ilxor, I have great feelings about that poll. But SD will def do a better job (my track record on these things is pretty iffy). Hopefully I can get it together by the time of the grand Billy Joel Poel.

i will sit at the bar and put bread in yr jar iirc

i heard that damn song at the grocery store today and it made me want to yell at someone. looking forward to classic rock memory lane poll tbrr. can't wait to see how high "burnin for you" places. Time to play ~b-sides~.

haha listen man if you wanted to grab the steering wheel or split some duties, i'd have no problem with that, totally your call.

Can I claim 105 for a New Pornographers/AC Newman tracks and albums poll?

re: this thread new New Pornographers

Ha, thanks SD but I don't wanna be captain take-back. Would be decidedly un-rock, anyway!

Piano Man discussion does remind me that 'worst' classic rock would be a great, long ballot in and of itself.

American Pie would win that.

In the next master list update, can you change the Stiff poll to a Van Halen poll? Because VAN FUCKING HALEN.

YEEEEEESSSS

I'm going to start a new thread on 1/1 and will make that change, plus the Byrds, covers, New Pornographers additions.

thx boss

good point, i should definitely have a top 5 "most bad and hated" subpoll or something.

Uh, I meant covers instead of Byrds. I can do Byrds sometime down the road, but would rather not do back to back polls.

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