[quote="cowboy71"]Now up to 1,063 different artists voted for. Here are the top 97.

35 Amon Amarth
28 Sabaton
27 Alestorm
26 Nightwish
.../quote]

Do you keep those in an Excel list or anthing like that? It would be cool to see the final listing of all bands once just for 'discovering' new bands and no need to scroll through all posts

Absolutely - I have no problem with sharing it :)

Keep an eye on this thread - when I 'finalise' the voting (I think end March will be a good cutoff point) and forward the info to Andy, I'll post a link to the excel spreadsheet here :)

Did this voting ever had any impact on skippers booking of the bands, or this is just a fun game we play? :)

by **Mark** » Sat Feb 27, 2016 3:45 am

Well it made him book Insomnium which where the 4th most requested band last time.
...and scheduled them to play at ridiculous o'clock twice

It absolutely does impact the skipper - about 20 of the most voted for bands ended up on the lineup this year :)

Unless the band you vote for is called Ne Obliviscaris, chances are it might have an impact :)

by **dlakavi_gusar** » Sat Feb 27, 2016 7:26 am

That's great, so we actually can make an impact :)

I love Persuader. I don't know about "poor man's" they're heavier and more aggressive. LIke if Blind Guardian kept doing the thrashy stuff off Follow The Blind in their modern era. I'd lose my shit if they were booked.

* Top two same as last year!
* 1094 different bands voted for in total - 200 more than last year
* Almost 600 different artists with only 1 vote (8 of those from my wishlist!)
