I'm curious about the Indy Music Awards nomination...


Fashion Design pointed out the other night, as they encouraged their audience to vote for their good fortune as a nominated band, a certain amount of ballot box stuffing is part of any vote like this. I suppose the Indy was trying to avoid that at the nomination level. But five or six nominees per catagory would have been more interesting.



Specifically: Superchunk, while a wonderful and groundbreaking and, yes, seminal local band, have played, what, two shows in the Triangle

This really shows that their nomination scheme broke down, though. Seems like nominating board didn't put much thought into their entries. One gets the sense that even if some horrible tragedy wiped the members of 'Chunk from the face of the earth, they'd have still been nominated.
