exactly.  :-D

by the way you can also vote on another NME poll, for the best band:

strangely enough(?), the cure is currently leading both polls.

i just happened to drop by and check how the nme poll is doing over there and while i was watching the site robert dropped from the lead of 9.3 to the current 8.72 (and still dropping) while that w*nker from oasis started similarly rising = it looks like some pisspoor oasis fans are really working hard for their golden boy tonight.

if you don't have anything better to do (i don't, i admit - i feel insomniac), here's a pastime:
vote 10 for robert:

http://www.nme.com/index.php?class=rate&ratename=greatestfrontperson&action=rate&rating=10&id=9

:D

and vote 1 for that guy in oasis:

http://www.nme.com/index.php?class=rate&ratename=greatestfrontperson&action=rate&rating=1&id=12

:-D

and just remember to vote again and again and again... infinitely.

I just voted.
I don't know how many days will this poll last, but I think The Cure have a pretty good chance to be in the first three, which is awesome.

sometimes you don't notice any change after voting many times. not sure why. then a bit later you can sometimes notice that  the result has changed radically. so perhaps they don't update the results in rela time or something(?). i don't know.
then again, today i voted for quite a long time in a row and certainly i saw the change in real time....

anyway, one needs to vote  a LOT - and do it again and again and again and....  :-D

hey captain is ok - i really hope he beats that "some guy" in oasis too. :p
i've been quite surprised to see beefheart that high up - but i think it's refreshing, considering NME is generally a pretty boring mag these days, focusing on all those silly new bands that nobody ill remember in three months...

hey, thanks a lot for those links. i voted in both categories.

i can't believe how high oasis are. i mean of course NME supports them a lot, but this is based on votes...i gave them 1 just to decrease their position, god forgive me.
