Help me rig a vote
« on: January 21, 2011, 11:28:49 AM »
My band The Malpaso Gang has been nominated for a local award here in Aberdeen. It's no big deal but it would be good for future promotion etc if we were able to say we are "award winners".

It's a public vote but we are currently in second place. :(

It would be most appreciated if you could take the time to vote, unfortunately you have to become a member of the website first but obviously that is a small price to pay. :)

Here's the link to the vote:

And to keep things slightly on-topic, here's a video of the band, with me playing my Knopfler strat. :)

Only two votes behind now, thanks to everyone that's helped so far. Any further help to push us into the lead is most appreciated. :)

Hi dusty!   I'm so sorry, I was too late to vote too, due to the fact I don't log on all the time!   :(    Anyway, I really enjoyed the video and especially your fine guitar playing very much!   Best of luck with the award!   :)

It looks like there are 3 bands tied for first now -- including your band 8)
It's hard sometimes but pretty much it's alright

Thanks folks!

Joan, we are in fact only tied with one other band, the final option is a kind of joke selection for people who don't like any of the bands. :)

Looks like a lot of people seem to like tea more than the local music offerings in Aberdeen...
