Also true. I love to give young, new talent like Jeremy Lile a shot-in-the-arm with a vote, but I still would never pick him as my favorite above someone like Eric Bennett.

In fact, it’s a viewpoint that you share in many areas outside of this particular Fan Awards category!

True, but considering he won it last year (and wasn’t there), it’s not even a question in my book. That’s ok, I understand your viewpoint, though.

Ty,

Sometimes I like going with the seasoned performers, but sometimes I like going with the young, energetic (relative) newcomers, too!

I’m with Diana. lol – again. If I had to guess I would say we probably voted very similarly.

I think we did vote the same on Dianne Wilkinson, Arthur Rice, and Libbi Stuffle, but I agree on the Bass Singer thing. I don’t think Tim is nearly as seasoned as Bennett or Holcomb. Hey, well, it’ll make for an interesting Awards Show!

I agree with you on quite a few of them Daniel.

Tim Duncan?????????
For me, it was a toss up between Mike Holecomb and Eric Bennett.Tim is nowhere near the bass that these two are.
Don’t get me wrong, Tim is good. But give him 5-10 years though before voting for him over Mke and Eric. Those two have been singing longer and have much more seasoned voices.
Just my opionion.

I fancy we’d be a lot closer if we started taking second choices into account! It just shows the strength of the genre that we can have virtually identical tastes and yet come out differently–and I guess it shows that there are a lot of vote-worthy musicians this year, too!

Wow! We’re really far apart this year, Daniel. We only match in two categories – but I’m not saying which ones they were! And a few of your picks are among my least likely to be picked. Should be an interesting fan awards program, don’t you think?

I agree with Jeff. Roy Webb gets my vote.
He is a great Piano Player. His CD is great.
