Results Almost In

The preliminary results are in and I have figured who all the solo acts are. However the last 2 spots can not be determined in the bands category as of now. So please choose 2 from the groups below. Please voice your opinion even if you did not submit any choices in the initial poll.

I will keep the voting open for these spots till 11:00 pm est Monday night.

Beach Boys
Queen
Metallica
Nirvana
Black Sabbath
The Doors
Grateful Dead

Please note several performers/acts received votes in both categories, 2 of whom had enough to make it into both brackets. After some discussion with a few of the voters here I have elected to place them in the solo category despite the fact they rarely ever performed alone.Two other performers who I always thought belonged in the band grouping received votes as a solo act and enough to make the final 16. When the bracket is posted you will see right away who I meant.

I will say I was very surprised by the lack of votes for quite a few.

Here are a few of the solo's that didn't make the cut:

Jackson Browne
Van Morrison
Janis Joplin
John Fogerty
Joe Walsh
Frank Zappa
Ted Nugent
Steve Winwood
Peter Gabriel

Since Yoko asked I think it will come as a surprise to no one that the Beatles are the #1 seed in the Bands category.

Yoko in the solo acts category  Bob Marley  finished in 17th place  just outside the bracket. The act seeded 16  had one more vote and those seeded  11-15 each received 2 more votes than he did. It was a very close competition to say the least
