YOU CHOOSE:CRF Rock Hall of Fame nominations-Tom Petty Talking Heads, etc

[jtrichey13]

Some good turnout so far, but more votes are always welcome and helpful. Still waiting on votes from:

Lynch (an incomplete ballot so far)
Titokinz
Recky
running shoes

and whoever else would like to participate.

Since we have been doing this for 17 vote cycles now, I have pared down the list I publish each cycle. For a band in the Cleveland Hall of Fame, I wait until they receive no support at all for 10 cycles in a row before I take them off the list. That was the case for Sam & Dave (which may give you an idea on if you should bother with them). If you do vote for someone not on the list, no problem, I will restore them to the published list again the next cycle. However, just keep in mind that they had at least 5 straight cycles (for non Cleveland Hall of Famers) with no support, so you better also include a good argument why others should vote for them too.

Thanks for taking the time to explain. Sam & Dave no support for 10 straight cycles? That's extreme even for this place.
