Any ideas on votes cast Steve? Must have cost you loads in postage ha ha

It seems a bit of a disjointed poll, Def Leppard over Maiden ....?? I don't think so and who the hell are Mostly Autumn???
Not taking away from the achievement or anything and i'm sure karl's happy too...

Mostly Autumn are a York Based Prog outfit. I've seen them once and I thought they were ok (I'm not a huge prog fan) Everyone else in the place was totally blown away and I was just stood their wanting to go home and put some Gamma Ray on.

Classic Rock Mag totally kisses their arses. I think they've got a few albums out (no idea what label) and even a DVD. Obviously they're very good at what they do - they're just not my cup of tea.

 

[sean-intense]

Thanks for the info Eagle, and they're Britain's 5th best band are they??? hmmm

 

[Symphony]

I have no idea on numbers Sean, I'm afraid.

It is the Powerplay readers though and Mostly Autumn have been featured in the mag in recent times, both live and interview.

 

[sean-intense]

Okay Steve, it was kind of a tongue in cheek question mate
Karl was highly surprised that Threshold were are the 2nd best band in Britain beating Maiden...but chuffed too i guess

 

[Symphony]

Yeah Karl is very unassuming when it comes to these things eh?

 

[sean-intense]

Yep, so laid back he's laying down

 

[Andi]

I’m a Prog fan, I’ve seen Mostly Autumn live and got the best of CD. They're good but I’d say they were much more Folk Rock really.

 

[Ayeka]

Mostly Autumn...now I've heard this name so many times...were they in Classic Rock awhile back, perchance?
