~ The Complete Pink Floyd Poll ~

Looking for the old results?
This poll is for those of us who understand that Pink Floyd is not merely a legendary Rock Band but indeed was the source of influence to more than just a few Rock Musicians today. Pearl Jam - Metallica - Radiohead - R.E.M - Megadeth to a whole list of them that we can't simply count. I will be adding questions to the poll regularly on topics relating to Pink Floyd and the inimitable maniacal wave the band created in the 60s-70s. The mania just keeps increasing even long after they retired from making new music. Bookmark the poll and just keeeep voting. Thanks.
