if you really didn't like any of the ones up there feel free to click 'other'. it's looking pretty lonely right now.

Hm, not sure what you think is going on. I just made a suggestion to add bands after people have said they want them in the poll (f.ex start out with a list of the few most popular, then add bands as more are suggested). That way, you would have a poll over bands people actually wanna vote for without, as you say, having to include any more. It seems you think I want him to include everything when I pretty much suggested doing the opposite.
There's no really good reason why alternatives that don't get voted for should be in the poll. By my suggestion, if someone would vote for them, they'd be in the poll so by not being there, you know they have 0 votes. You don't need the poll to tell you that.
Anyways, it was just a suggestion for the next time someone does this. I do like Boo Boo's poll the way it is and I found many of my favourites on it.
