    I’m holding out on voting till I see what’s what.

    Everyone is allowed to change their vote later anyway, when they see what's what.

    I'm going to vote for B-52s & Carole King. To be fair, I won't be voting much in main tournament, just pre-lims. This probably isn't a good time to mention that I'm not really a numbers person so let me know if you see any mistakes.

    I'd vote for The Velvet Underground and Carole King from that list, please.

    I may have plumped for Tchaikovsky, Chopin or Wagner if I knew more about classical music but it's an area I must admit I'm a bit ignorant on.

    The only one I've seen live is James Taylor, but I don't think he's going to make the cut... Let's go Billy Joel and Carole King.. though I may change the latter if others I like improve their standings.
