I've been away all weekend, and was surprised to see the vote so close. Sorry to be the odd man out, but as much as I respect Roger as a drummer and as a man, Neil Peart holds almost God-like status in our house. Just a few examples of his skills.... for those who care. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_PeartThis is why I am adverse to these polls. I know nothing about what makes a good drummer in a rock band. Nothing. But I admit I have been voting for Roger because he is such a supporter of Adam. If other Adam fans are doing the same thing, it is probably skewing the results so that the winner is not being chosen by his drumming ability. Doesn't it give you pause when you think about why the average voter chooses the candidate he/she does? Are we as fickle with voting for political figures as for musicians? Yes, I know these polls are all just click bait and don't mean much. It just gripes my butt to see musicians in popularity contests like in high school. Never mind my bitching. Carry on. I've been a fan of Roger's for years but admit I am biased and know nothing about Neal Peart other than that I also know people who list Rush as their absolute favorite band. In other words, I vote for Roger out of loyalty but I'm sure there are others such as Neil just as worthy.

ALAlwayz #GhostTown @alalwayz 24m24 minutes ago Adam Lambert mention. Designer gives Barbie a glamorous Filipino makeover shar.es/1gdefb via @inquirerdotnet
(Adam mention)
"Only 4,400 dolls have been released on TheBarbieCollection.com and through the Barbie Collection catalog, and demand for them has been high. Nuera, who has been with Mattel since 2010, has designed dolls for the company’s Fashionistas and So In Style lines and one-of-a-kind creations for Barbie Adores Adam Lambert and Haute Hiver Barbie. He has also done work with the Ken doll, which brought his story full circle, as that line sparked his childhood dream for designing dolls when he received the Sun Sensation Ken for Christmas in 1991.

I listened to the youtubes above and thought....golly, I think I have been voting for the wrong guy!! But I did not post/say anything.... ...and after reading the other posts.... ...and agreeing with the above posters....silly games/ click baiting ...and yet I wonder why do get into some of these polls...not all, but some. Blindly voting for a favorite versus talent?? ....my own fault....and it perpetuates the concept of polls on these sites! ....seems I want my known favs to do well!

Roger is behind a smidge in the drum battle poll.

To my admittedly untrained ear - I just know what I like and respond to - Roger is still the best and so gets and keeps my votes. Never even heard of the other guy (drum god????) anyway.

I didn't vote in the poll cuz I don't care who wins these things.
