HOF - NLE

**The Flying Mouse** · 18 Sep 2013, 02:11

When the MLUKFC Legends of music HOF was started, the idea was kicked around a little that we could/should have a NLE category.

I think it would be nice if we could get this category up and running, and post the inductees on Meat's birthday.

I think that if current/recent band members ran against band members from longer ago, we wouldn't have much of a race (more recent band members have a much higher advantage), so how about we induct 5 ex members of the NLE who have not worked with Meat for at least 5 years, and 2 band members who are still with the band, or have worked with Meat within the last 5 years?
That's a total of 7 inductions this year to get the ball rolling.
After that there will be fewer inductions per year. 3 at most (2 classic and 1 recent).

I've left it a bit late in the day to go through the same nomination process we had for the other categories (my bad

) so rather count nominations, then post them, then have the members vote on the finalists, we'll just have one round of blind voting (and hope for the best

).

To clarify, a member of the NLE is someone who has performed with Meat LIVE rather than anybody who has played on studio recordings.

To vote, please copy and paste the next message on this thread into a PM, fill in the blanks of who you want to vote for, and send it to me.

Closing date for votes in Thursday 26th September.
I'll do my best to post the results in the new category the next day

To even things out a little i've changed the amount of inductees from recent years from 1 to 2.
Otherwise I've a feeling that particular vote will be a foregone conclusion

You sod, we have to put our thinking caps on.

Scary to think that Mark and Kasim fall into the first category!

LucyK! · 18 Sep 2013, 22:49

...or do they? They officially left in 2010 but did they perform with Meat in 2009? Their last UK was 2008, were there US shows in '09? Too tired to check-

Wario · 19 Sep 2013, 00:56

forgive me for being a party pooper but... is there a point? Last time it was a confusing cluster

wolfy35 · 19 Sep 2013, 01:17

No idea who you could mean there at all Mouse.

I suspect you are talking about Bob

I think they'd be under recent band members.

That moment Wario tells you one of your threads is pointless

If you want to vote, vote. If you don't think there's ant point, don't.

There was no confusion, just saturation.
Indeed, I propose a discussion thread on each possible candidate.
Let the HOF flood the site.

Only if someone will lock each thread, edit half the content out and then repost each one.

So just like every other post

loaferman61 · 19 Sep 2013, 19:41

I assume Patti should be the first inductee. She has my vote.

Do you really think there is any doubt that Patti will get in?

Truth be told I think there will be uproar if she does not & for me she should have got in automatically as soon as it was found out she was no longer in the NLE in thanks and recognition of her 20+ years of amazing service.

Won't be happy if Kaz gets in though. Personally I never really liked him & I think Bob deserves the second place more than he does because a concert is not the same without Bob

I don't think there is any doubt since I think there are plenty of people here that I believe will be voting for her but personally I do not think anyone should get in automatically without being voted in other than Meat and Jim.

**The Flying Mouse** · 25 Sep 2013, 00:45

Thanks to the folks who've sent in their votes already

There's still a couple of days to go if you want to join in.
Deadline is midnight (BST) on Thursday because I want to count the results up and post the results Friday afternoon.

**The Flying Mouse** · 27 Sep 2013, 20:57

I've nearly got all the results counted, but I haven't got time to finish them right now as i'm off to work.

I'll try and get the results up after tonight's gig

**The Flying Mouse** · 28 Sep 2013, 02:19

Had a bit more time than expected to work on this tonight, seeing I mixed my dates up

Anyway, our inductees this year are..................

Classic band members

Damon La Scott & Paul Jacobs

Pat Thrall

Karla DeVito

Steve Buslowe

Current/recent band members

John Miceli

Patti Russo

Thanks to everyone who voted, and congratulations to this years inductees

I'll be putting the Neverland Express section together as soon as possible.

I am having problems finding good pics of Damon and Paul though, so if anyone has any good pics we could use for the HOF, it'd be greatly appreciated if you could PM me them

BTW, would anyone be interested in seeing the full results?

That is great! Well deserved! I would be interested in the full results, Neil.

Evil One · 30 Sep 2013, 18:18

People voted for Damon La Scot?

Damon LaScot and Pat Thrall are probably the only classic guitarists that young fans have seen in concert. (Not to undermine his win in any way because he did play well on the VBO/Storytellers tours.)
