Don't mean to be thick here....but does that mean that I can vote for my nomination?
Re: Album Of The Year 2017 - Hector, Norfolk, Rab, Swan TO VOTE
Yes you can vote for your own nomination Swan but you must vote for one other album in the same category as wellwhiteswan wrote:Don't mean to be thick here....but does that mean that I can vote for my nomination?

Ignore Leon, he has no idea of the rules....
You are not allowed to vote for the McDonald creature.....
It cannot be described as music, so should only be played in a close information gathering situation, as a persuader to talk... ie talk or we play the record....
all voting for your own is banned apart from anyone not voting for McDonald.....
Hope that clarifies things...

Re: Album Of The Year 2017 - Hector, Norfolk, Rab, Swan TO VOTE
No for me right now I'm afraid, I hear it and think not as good as Fugazi. I'm off post punk a bit at the moment. I may circle back round at some point

Mums got the Benny album in her car and to me it feels re hashed, ill thought out and an extremely cynical attempt to make money out of old rope... If you feel the need to listen to something like that then Max Richter is your starting point. I have no problem with Jane as she's easy on the eye and basically a cabaret singer. Not much to argue with there she does what it says on the tin
