No sweat Sean. You can keep editing until I close the poll. I'd like to let this go a couple of weeks or until it peters out. It would be great to get about 50 responses. Great job so far by everyone. Come on, the rest of ya!

<br>I had excluded the Waterboys (and Proclaimers) from my list feeling they were too far removed from NW. However, it looks like several ppl have included them. While "Whole of the Moon was in heavy rotation on WLIR, I don't remember much else being played.

Any thoughts pro/con? FWIW, AMG classifies them as "Alternative Pop/Rock"
