Ok...
Sorry about the lateness of the poll... A bit too much homework for my own
good... Anyway, I got 111 votes for the poll. I've arranged it as a top 100
of all time, plus 11 more "almost, but not quite" slots (arranged by point
total).

I will conduct a top band/artist of all time poll after I get back from
winter break...

If you would like a complete record of the point distribution, e-mail me
and I'll send it to you... for those who sent requests will receive this
poll and the point distribution.
