[Cornfed Hick]

Eric Bloom, Bon Scott, Dave Meniketti, Robert Plant, Pat Benatar, Sammy Hagar (unless already in), Doc Neeson, Ed Kowalcyk, Billy Squier, Jimmy Barnes, Steve Perry,Klaus Meine
And Doug Pinnock

Thank goodness! Just got back from vacation and was going through this thread, thinking that it would be absurd to have a poll like this without Bon Scott, Robert Plant or Pat Benatar (the best of the female nominees and my #3 overall). Glad they got in under the wire. Still...we nominated Stevie Nicks and Lizzy Hale but not Janis Joplin??

 

[Cornfed Hick]

Jeff Beck, Duane Allman, Angus & Malcolm Young (I propose they be considered together), Randy Rhoads, Keith Richards, Uli Jon Roth

 

[SixesAlltheway]

How are the elimination process going to run? head to head matches or just pick your least faves?

 

[Stardust]

I would like Head To Head matches.

 

[Ariana]

Mark Tremonti

 

[SixesAlltheway]

I would like Head To Head matches.

At least that would give everyone time to actually explain their stance on an artist and might open a few eyes/ears in the process. But it will take a hell of a long time.

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

Hmm...who will @CriedWhenBrucieLeft nominate?

Kaki King.

I think Robert Plant didn't make the game, actually. NP picked five out of mckindog's nominations to fill out the game and Plant was not among his selections. Pretty crazy, considering he was Top 10 when this game was done the first time. -5 years ago-
