Free Your Mind and Your Ass Will POLL: The P-Funk Nominations and Voting Thread

feel like we should at least have more poll participants than band members lol

So you're looking at three figures then?

Stevie Wonder had roughly 20 or 30 I think.

XTC poll had almost 40

Oh ILXpaws

Yes sorry I sent it...from Lee

Already said on the Funkadelic album thread, but the new Funkadelic album is out on itunes now. Three goddamn CDs, 3 1/2 hours. Features twice as much new Sly Stone material as Sly's own botched comeback album from a couple years ago. Just purchased it - verdict still pending.

curious to hear what you think of it

I guess the only remaining holdout is Grisso...? once his ballot is in I'll get the results goin

I've got a bunch of work today, but I have done most of my listening already, so I should have a ballot ready tonight or in the morning at the latest.

Great, we've been standing on the verge of getting this poll on for long enough!

Hey I sent a ballot but didn't get an email back- not sure if I followed procedure correctly.

doesn't look like I got it - can you send it again?

OK,I resent to the address posted upthread.

SENT!

Not participating (as usual) but this will be my favourite rollout since the classic rock poll. And can I just use this space to tell the dream I had last night, in which Sly Stone and Bootsy Collins were at my parents' old house, attending my dad's Grey Cup (the Super Bowl of Canadian football) party? Nobody but me knew who they were, dunno who invited them, they just sat beside each other at a far end of the couch. Sly was looking pretty thin and greybearded. I went to my old bedroom to find some albums for them to autograph, and got irritated that my Sly and Funkadelic albums were all messed up, with Tower of Power and Frank Zappa and Ted Nugent vinyl in the sleeves instead. Eventually I realized that I could sort the vinyl out later, but by the time I carried the sleeves downstairs, the game was over and everyone was leaving. Sly and Bootsy had already left. (I hate football anyways.)

ok results today...

there was a funkadelic poll?

for future reference:

ILM Ballot Polls for 2014 and beyond -- order, timing, "I would have voted if I'd known about it," etc

Where there confirmation emails?

jesus christ

if anyone still wants to vote get your ballot in now goddammit

19 ballots so far

mine was in at the beginning

only 19 is a poor show for ilm

like wtf people

i blame shakey for not using Shit Godamn Get Off Your Ass and vote as a title

LOL, I didn't think 19 was too bad but apparently it is :(

ilm only likes old music made by white people

I think the turnout is embarrassing

the greatest band ever and only 19 ballots is a disgrace. fuck you ilm.
shakey you done good when you starting the roll out so we can see the excuses?

People seem to have been daunted by the size of the discography, like you have to have heard everything or something.

that's silly. You vote for what you have heard and liked. Nobody has heard every classic rock song ever but people still voted.

plus it's all on spotify if you want to hear it

Well I'm not on Spotify (though I have heard most of it anyway... and I voted... so I'll shut up).

I filled out an entire 100 vote ballot!

Hoping that others would too so we got a top 100 roll out
