    About Black Oak Arkansas, Frater Amorifer wrote:
    Jim, "Supposedly" nothing! Watch a BOA video, then watch an early VH video. DLR took a video of an early BOA show at the Whisky, then copied Jim Dandy's whole act! His voice, his hair, his way of dressing, the way he jumps around & looks around wild-eyed at the audience, even the Jack Daniels bottle (instead of Jim's moonshine jug), DLR's act is 100% copied from Jim Dandy. But DLR showed some respect, he asked Jim for his permission (which Jim granted) before he took the video.

    For the Genre Vote results, I'm not sure what I was thinking I was posting the results earlier but none of the songs that got 7 votes earned enough votes for induction.
