AWARDS:
Minds Eye Award
The name for this award is the song title of the song that was being played the first time I had the feeling at a gig that the band we were watching were way too awesome to be playing for a donation at a place this sh!tty. The fact that Wolfmother recently broke up is not important but they did make it big about a year and a half after we saw them.

FEARLESS VAMPIRE KILLERS
As Jim said previously, catch these guys while you still can in comfort and free of d!ckheads!

Biggest Disappointment
I couldn't decide on a good name for this award, Rise of the Machines Award is too long....Anyone have any better ideas? comment on this entry!

  1. How are Cog in your top 5, and also nominated for biggest disappointment? As an avid follower of this blog, I am just a little curious...

  2. Ahah, excellent point mysterious anonymous reader!

    I'll edit that definition of best bands, but what I mean by 'Best Bands' is the bands with the best music, kind of independant of their live performance we've seen that month. The necesity of this category became apparent when Franz Ferdinand didn't rank in any of my other categories - and I really like their music, but didn't think much of their live show.
