I'd ask maltais, but I highly doubt he'll ever visit the forum again. LOL

maltais should have at least waited to bump a band that had a chance at winning. LOL Pink Floyd will shut this side down, unless Zappa pulls a surprising victory. LOL

Even when I voted for Rush, I'm not a partcular fan, just like them more than GYBE!

I am amazed at how close this poll is. Thought Godspeed would win this by a mile. ;)

Holy ship, Rush is only winning by one vote.  I like Godspeed and all, but seriously... this just doesn't feel right.

With all of the controversy, I submit that we disqualify both bands and insert either Yes or Genesis into this slot.

Just saw this poll for the first time and thought 'this will be a blowout'.  Then checked the score.  What!!!Shocked.
 
Has the world gone mad? Confused.
 
Another vote for Rush ties things up.

What an interesting result! I voted for Rush earlier, but it's really nice to see, how strong position of GY!BE is!

Given that Rush was winning 2 to 1 yesterday, no doubt something nefarious happened.

GY!BE has united the anti-Rush world. Rush is one of the most famous bands but GY!BE is much better in progressive manner.
Really don't mind if you sit this one out.

Next on CNN: Scandal rocks the Progarchives.com community! Will the Tea Party use this as another weapon against Obama's inefficiency at maintaining the integrity of hobby websites? More information as it develops!

Haha, like CNN reports anything, they just post random people's tweets

Dang, now it's tied up? What's up with these epically long polls that have no clear ending in sight? Makes me think of the 2000 election Tongue

Would you like some Bailey's?
