I voted! Now where do I get a sticker to wear on my lapel?
Re: The Eggmen and I need your vote, yet again!!
Me too, so, they want your ZIP code. Do you suppose they look at that and if you're too far from Austin, they just throw our your vote?
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Re: The Eggmen and I need your vote, yet again!!
I see this come up every year & I can't keep my mouth shut any longer. Someone explain to me the
validity of such a poll, where people vote for friends & have no idea what the other musicians sound like?
What exactly is the point of this? What is gained? If there is some kind of gain, is it rightfully earned?
Someone PLEASE enlighten me.

Re: music polls; this is pretty much the norm, so since that is how it works it all equals out in the end, and the best band wins, anyways!

Just a member asking fellow members, friends, and cohorts for a little help.
I think I've posted enough clips over the years that friends on this forum are familiar with my band.
Didn't mean to offend.
Participation is not required.

How could an Eggman offend any of us? May the best Beatles tribute band win!

Congrats Ronn. You did well!
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
