WUMB radio - Vote by 11-5-07 for your favorite artists!

Postby KarenZ » Tue Aug 28, 2007 10:02 am

Folks,

WUMB is asking listeners to vote for their Top 10 artists of the last 25 years. Voting is open until Nov. 5, 2007 after which time WUMB will tally/announce the TOP-100 of 2007 list.

Read more and vote here.

Last year, Ellis Paul came in at #30 on WUMB's Top-100 of 2006 list.

Jela,

I'm guessing your #2 is Mark Erelli....followed closely behind by Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. ;)

Am I right? :)

As are mine!

If I disappear again I apologize ahead of time! I just moved into college a few days ago. :lol: This week is orientation followed by the start of classes -- so it might take a little while to adjust and make the time to check the board regularly!

I will miss you all! :cry:

I'm glad he made the top 100. Obviously, I think he should be in the top 10, but what do I know ... HA!

He'll always be tops in my book, right next to Mr. Ellis Paul.

I'm happy that all but one of my favorites made the list. The one that didn't make it - Lynn Miles - is a blatant oversight.
