Zappa vs Rush......I mean that makes no sense really. I will agree with you though they would loose. I would be happy to loose against Pink Floyd or Genesis...but Zappa?? I am not sure I would vote in that one as more of a protest...
 
It would be an uprising, like, like we could have a Boston CD Party....throw all the CD's overboard!!!

Oh come on, Boston isn't that bad. Their first album has its moments. Tongue

What the heck happened, yesterday at this time it was practically tied.  In the last 24 hours Rush got 50 votes and Godspeed got five?  In all fairness though, this is more along the lines of what I was expecting.

I was pretty surprised by the turnout, too.  I knew Rush was going to win (heck, I voted for them myself), but it's also nice to see that Godspeed at least got a respectable number of votes.

I didn't think it was that dumb.. But I did see it with a group of friends and a group of whiskey shots. Everything is much funnier and clever...er in that scenario LOL
 
Man, I was so excited at the possibility of having GY!BE beat Rush, but oh well. I guess I'll put on some F# A# and think of what could have been

Whoa, what in the Christ? How did GY!BE pull ahead so far, so fast?

Not that I'm complaining, 'cause I voted for them, but still, I always forget how many Godspeed fans are on this board. 
Heaven's made a cesspool of us all.

50+ votes in a couple hours?  I'm not usually one to find things like that fishy, but...that seems really fishy tbh.

If it does turn out to be a case of people multi-voting (which I'm not saying it will), I have to say...people are too obsessed with their favorite band winning a fun poll. Dead

Wow...I think that is more than just suspicious.  That's suspicious, pathetic, and hilarious. LOL
