The posting of lyrics presents a problem due to copyright/ intellectual property issues. See this topic: Copyrighted material - A warning

We have recently been obliged to remove a popular and otherwise compliant thread due to it being riddled with the quoting of copyrighted material. We were approached by one of the copyright owners who made it clear in unambiguous terms that legal action would be taken if the quotes were not removed immediately. Members are reminded that they should not include copyrighted material in their forum posts or reviews without the express permission of the owner. This includes lyrics, essays, and all text appearing on other websites, in books, magazines etc. It is usually best to use links to other websites rather than reprint text from them. Members are reminded that they are personally responsible for what they say in their posts and reviews, and as such, may find themselves drawn into any subsequent action which is taken by copyright owners.

Missed this before. Yes. Sounds good.

^Thanks for setting up the poll links. I forgot to credit you for those and fixed that in the links thread.

It would be a great way to expose people to new music, even if not necessarily prog. The prog discussions on this forum have been stale for a long time, but there's life outside the boundaries of what most people consider "prog".

Just thought I'd post the history of the Interactive topics so far (in order of poll start):

1. It's so first that it doesn't even need a numerical designation in the title. this had yet to become a series, but it's now the first one in the series.

* Tapfret's I think was intended as a related event and so not canonical to the series and therefore not numbered, but I think of it as part of the same series.

The numbering went wrong, mine should have been nine, or ten if you include Tapfret's, or 667th if you count it another way. Umm...

So what number is the next one? 10, 11? I guess if there is no 9, then we can assume that 7 8 9. Ate is my favourite number. Oh I forgot Micky did 9 for Shut Up. Funny order, so the next is 11, or 12 depending on. I'm glad this series won't just go up to 11.
