[insert band] should have won [insert category] over [insert band].

Royal Headache should have won Best New-ish Act over St. Helens for sure

Very Melbourne, wonder if the album results will be the same.

It's as though someone's uncle who still thinks of himself as hip and down with the alternative music scene voted a couple of thousand times.

Hey, let's put the Middle East on some more lists why don't we?

So, this kinda don't mean much if we don't know how many votes there were.

careful junkiephil, you'll raise the ire of m&n admin with that kind of talk...

So, this kinda don't mean much if we don't know how many votes there were.

sorry, should've mentioned it. there were four.

who won the prize pack?

The people have spoken. Clearly, I am not the people.

I didn't even speak. However, From Her to Eternity is the best thing Cave ever committed to recording.

where are the worst categories? theyre always the best

Wagons for best live act..... People are loosing their fucking minds!
Oh well..... Wow, cool to see East Brunswick All Girls Choir in there. Ace!

How come Nick Cave went from having hair to not having hair so fast?
it was like one minute hair - next hair gone.

I didnt know it could go so unexpectedly?

worst readers poll of 2009 - M&N

Look at the results of this poll.

Clearly, all the voters (all 30 of them) live in the same two streets in Brunswick and North Fitzroy.

I'M IN YR STATS ANALYSIS, FUCKIN' YR CONCLUSIONS.

needs more THE STEELE.

(or just third person generally)

hahaha. i'd have to agree with that. am happy to see st helens up there though.

so far so good, and no real complaints (although Nick Cave just keeps on keeping on doesn't he) but even I just have to point out that if You Am I are not the consistently best freaking live freaking Australian band in Australian history over the last decade plus (and nearly 2 decades) then I cannot spell Wagons... which I just did. Come on people, pay tribute to the kings - YAI = live music to the power of live squared....

GBTFLOU

Timmy Dodgers.

Where are all the fucking women?

f'n women? hmmm... sentence construction can be a dangerous thing. and i gots to say that lisa mitchell, sarah blasko and adalita are all freaking awesome performers but i couldn't call it sexit if the best five included the drones, you am i, the dirty three, eddy current and my disco (okay i added YAI) - there's no sexism there just ''awesome-ism''

but i take your point and i hope tomorrow we see a better balance considering all things and all things considered (i'd name names but i'd be called sexist for singling out talent - but robert f was right, that blasko album is a stone cold killer)...

tdx

Hmmmm. A pretty unexciting result in the main. Nick Cave over X? Oh well. Worth it for Rowland though.

Where are all the fucking women?

You mean apart from the ones in Screamfeeder, X, Primitive Calculators, Underground Lovers, St Helens, the Twerps, Rat vs Possum and the Drones?

Popular results rarely reflect what is in fact 'the best'.
It's the M+N Logies.
Results should be rephrased, 'most popular', not best.

how predictable. how very melbourne.

kitchensfloor not even charting in the newest section leads me to believe that a) you're all retarded or b) you haven't got around to listening to em/seeing em. i really hope, for australia's sake that it's the latter.

I dunno, alpsofagreeablepronouncements. Have they already had their backlash? Indie rock is so hard to keep up with. They do well and truly rule though. I've not heard a single one of the new act winners, but that means sweet fuck all really, cos I never really go anywhere. I look forward to doing so.

I made a similar argument about the JJJ poll. Nobody cares.

There just aren't as many women as men playing music. This is probably an accurate demographic reflection. Affirmative action is patronising.

Is it? I don't know.

I mean the demographic thing. Not the affirmative action.

Retard!

It was a joke anyway. remember that poll a few years ago about something? Nor do I.

i don't think you could have a backlash against kitchensfloor. it would be like having a backlash against kittens or sex or something else awesome

Haha. Pole.

So you're saying this is the fault of ceiling cat?

kittens are awesome to be sure. but that st helens album is a killer, and i'm a fan of the middle east. the others I know not of yet... i'm wondering why empire of the sun didn't poll here?

oops, i mean pole.

I'm from Melbourne and I reckon that's wack. More Royal Headache.

Most things about music these days make me feel old, but this poll makes me feel young.

No blood drawn in that live list. This is a little biased (so would all the nomintations) because I tend to see mates bands play more often, but
Hospital The Musical, Fourteen Nights At Sea, Bare Arms, Nation Blue Truth From Facts, Justice Yeldham, The Scandal, The (Temperamental) Pocket, Luca Brasi, Black Level Embassy, Surprise Wasp, Gay Paris.

I dunno, as much as I like My Disco, they've become a lot less interesting live as time goes by. Have Dirty Three even played here this year.

Yeah, they played at ATP

King_Rat said 1 day ago:

Why do women only rate if they sing? Does jimmy page not rate then?
Wagons rigged it.

Ahhhh joke.

your not joking. stand by your words, coward.

But what happens when I don't stand by the words that it was a joke. Semi hadron collider.

EBAGC shoulda been best comeback. From a potentially disastrous life.

You truly are a genius.

On the other hand I am almost working back at the same job I was a few years ago. Shit's still got a chance of fuckery. High
