Pip Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 No voting for Tom, you! Damn right I am! A great frontman is one who interacts with the band and the crowd, neither of which you often see MB doing You knew I'd go for him though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niall Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I'm only overly familiar with Matt, I have no real idea how good a front man each other is/was. It's always just a popularity contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzthief Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Dave Gahan all the way. +12345 This popped up on the DM message board a few days ago and people there are furious cause Gahan isn't one of the selections and is listed as other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LyraSilvertongue Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 He was added later cause of the big amount of votes. What, so they dumped someone else from the shortlist to make space for Dave Gahan? You're not making a lot of sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdeboer01 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 It feels like they're missing some candidates, and have less appropriate ones listed. Where's Lemmy? Steve Tyler? Bono? Sting? Robert Plant? David Byrne? Ozzy? Bruce Dickenson? Rob Halford? Trent Reznor? Robert Smith? Anthony Kiedis? Hmmmm........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Plant? David Byrne? Ozzy? Bruce Dickenson? Rob Halford? Trent Reznor? Robert Smith? Anthony Kiedis? Hmmmm........ These were voted by XFM listeners, who tend to be on the young side so the shortlist isn't too surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
