Kew Rhone is a recent discovery for me personally, since I came back to the site last year, so recent I still don't have a physical copy.. not yet at least. Someone (Pat?) had mentioned it as a favorite album in some discussion last year, so naturally it made me curious as I had never heard of it and I checked it out.  I was quite taken with it.  So taken it seems I am the only person to have voted for it, and one of the only two votes I've cast in the new polls to this point. Perhaps wasted.. but that album was NOT getting bageled! LOL

Maybe I'll vote for it, but I'll give the other contestants a chance too. They will be listened to as well, because we are severe but just Smile. To be continued.

It's worth trying, as the issue itself was probably put into place to discourage trolls.

Here are the updated modern brackets.  The bottom half kicks off Saturday morning. Thumbs Up

as a note. Second round (and onward) polls will be traditional 2 enter.. 1 exit. Did the 4/2 for the 1st round to save a months worth of time.. and throw a twist into voting.

I find all this not the least bit unfunny and attempting to stroke some idiotic ego. Dressing in drag to listen to Genesis? Perhaps a long, long fall off a very high cliff can make this all go away.
