    oh, I missed all the action again!!
    One of my nominations already out (Kraftwerk) although I kind of expected that.

    And lots of songs that I don't know, so I will have to do quite a bit of listening to decide my votes !!

    Upcoming gigs and events: Nova Twins, Tanita Tikaram, David Byrne, The Cure,

    Alright!!

    Match 21: Fleetwood Mac (Class band in general, they will be getting votes frequently from me)
    Match 22: Peter Gabriel (not a huge fan of his music, but Solsbury Hill is one of his songs that I like)
    Match 23: Prince (I wouldn't consider his 70's material as the best of his career, but hey Prince is Prince)
    Match 24: Slade (the Styx doesn't do anything for me)

    Upcoming gigs and events: Nova Twins, Tanita Tikaram, David Byrne, The Cure,
