Alright, we've moved on to Round #3! Thanks to all who have participated so far... it's been really fun!!!! :)
For those of you just joining us, we are having a vote off for the best frontman ever. I did not make the selections, but rather accepted votes from the CBS Community members.
Here are the rules:
1) This is based on them as a front person for the band and NOT with the quality of the band's music. So if someone is a great frontman and the band sucks, they are still acceptable.
2) What you deem is the "best" is up to you. Perhaps it is someone with really unique vocals that has such a distinctive voice that you recognize the singer immediately. Perhaps it is someone with not such a great voice, but is a great stage performer. Perhaps it is someone who connects amazingly well in front of a live crowd. Etc, etc, etc...
The last round for 2A can be seen here:

Anyway, now on to the results of Round 2:
Mick vs Jimi: Mick received 15 votes and Jimi received 4 votes.
Plant vs Springsteen: Plant received 13 votes and Bruce received 6 votes.
Freddie vs David Lee Roth: Freddie received 12 votes and DLR received 6 votes.
Morrison vs Daltrey: Jim received 12 votes and Roger received 6 votes.
All the Top Seeds won here.
ROUND 3 MATCHUPS:
Mick Jagger (1) vs. Jim Morrison (4)
Robert Plant (2) vs. Freddie Mercury (3)
NOTE FOR FIRST TIMERS: I've decided to honor the Use Your Illusion 1 & 2 concept by doing this poll two different ways. On this blog (Blog A), the bracket is above. On Blog B, it is the same people above, yet seeded differently (the more common strongest versus weakest & weakest vs strongest bracket). It will be interesting to see if the final results are the same or different based solely on seeding. :)
Blog B is here: http://the-bong-show.blogs.sportsline.com/mcc/blogs/entry/7488048/8718816
Voting will end on 6/16/08.
Cheers!
