FreeWave,

When are you gonna tally the results?

[ru480s2]

I didn't create this thread/concept but really do like it. I'd just wish some more hard-core NW fans would participate. Sure their obscure choices wouldn't end up in the final mix (or would they). But, their top picks would intrigue me, and I (and maybe others) would take the effort to find out more about these bands. (ie. Polecats) Okay many people may not have the time to make such a long list, but I'm sure (I think) Freeware is willing to take less.

My comments are my own and I don't want to force (or offend) anyone. NWO ruleZ. [:)]

[FreeWave]

We've got I think 18 lists so far and I'm going to wait a bit longer so we can more participation. No too far off though, a couple of weeks. Come on stragglers, lets see those lists!! [:D]

[FreeWave]

Keep em coming guys (and girls)

[ExRat]

Seriously, all you slackers get a move on. I wanna see the results.

[:D]
