Sorry, I just thought these guys deserve their own thread as well.

 

Juanky's rules apply here too:

 

Simple rules. This is the nomination thread. Any member who chooses to use his/her nominations get to select two artists to be put up for voting at a later time. It is suggested that you try not to nominate the same artist more than once, since nothing special will be given to those mentioned twice, but it is not forbidden and is perfectly acceptable.

 

 

Nominated so far:

Cliff Burton (Metallica)

Sting (The Police)

John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin)

Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers)

Jaco Pastorius (Weather Report, Joni Mitchell, etc.)

John Entwistle (The Who)

Paul McCartney (The Beatles)

Geddy Lee (Rush)

Chris Squire (Yes)

Victor Wooten (B?la Fleck and the Flecktones, et al)
