GO Hoppers! I definitely think they deserve their Doves, they’re the only ones in their category that have been around for 52 years. I mean i LOVE my job but I couldn’t do it for for half a century and not go nuts or call it quits. If you’re a GMA member- vote Hoppers! Besides, if we go ahead and give them these then they probabaly won’t ask for anymore ! LOL

Andrew – yeah, I simply missed that. No offense to Karen, somehow I just skimmed right over it!

Thanks for catching that. I think it’s my second blooper here you’ve caught within 24 hours!

I think you forgot to mention Karen Peck’s Female Singer nomination. I missed seeing more strictly SG artists (Perrys,Legacy Five,Greater Vision, etc.) on the list of nominees.

I really feel bad for GC… their new group has done an excellent job with their current album IMO.

I think EH&SS should be recognized for the way they are reshaping the way things are done. However, I do not think Ernie should be up for Male Vocalist of The Year. I think he’s very smart for doing things the way he has and has done a great job with his group – but this is talking about being a vocalist and when compared to all the other possibilities out there – Ernie just simply falls short.

However, it would be great for him to win it, since he’s in the position to now.

Mark, “Jesus and John Wayne” reminds me of the song “Somewhere in the Middle” by Casting Crowns. It’s not a song about where we “should be”, it’s more about where we ARE. Not all songs about our relationship with God are idealized. Some are just honest.

Go Ernie Haase & Signature Sound! You guys so deserve it!
