One more suggestion. Weird Al Yankovic in punk/alternative. He's gotten some major exposure lately; he may do fairly well.

[blozor]

Garfunkel and Oates for women in rock.

[bart_calendar]

That could end up being the most interesting nomination in years - and might dethrone Joan.

[holyoutlaw]

Another second for Garfunkel and Oates.

Fresh Meat...

CR: Nazareth, ZZ Top, Sky cries mary, Allah-Lahs, the black angels
punk/alt: Operation Ivy. Mr Bungle, Stereolab
women: jesca hoop, suzanne vega
metal: jane's addiction

I second Weird Al for alternative

Congratulations, we are old!

This is the first time I have read "Sky Crys Mary" in years. Thanks for that.

Sisters of Mercy

[yes_that_tonya]

Second: Jane's Addiction, Beck

[lordkiev]

Mash-ups/team-ups allowed? Do they have to be bands that actually performed somewhere at some point?

[bart_calendar]

It can be anything if it gets seconded and thirded enough...

[lordkiev]

Also I really want to nominate Hall & Oates; I just can't decide whether I want to suggest them for metal or punk.

[blozor]

Women in Rock?

[bart_calendar]

Nominate them for whatever category you think they can get seconded or thirded for.

I am neutral when it comes to this.

[twain]

I second Hall and Oates for women in rock.
