I don't really understand your post.

Are you saying people vote for Satriani because he's not popular (even if they haven't heard him)? Because that's not true - that's elitism and doesn't happen a lot in this situation. I imagine he would get many more votes if many people heard him. You can't vote for that which you haven't heard.

BTW, there's a reply waiting in the Crowquill modship thread.
