The Austin Chronicle's Music Poll 2002 is now taking votes until January 30th. So we deserately need your help. Austin is known as the 'Live Music Capitol of the World' due to its huge number of venues and many, many musicians. There are so many musicians, it is really tough to make an impact on the scene. But the Austin Chronicle is read but a huge segment of the population. Even if just our friends and Nagians made a small effort at voting, we could potentially win an award, thereby forcing our way onto the front of the music scene. It doesn't take much so, vote for the Brobdingnagian Bards. I've seen no requirement that you be from Austin, so Nagians worldwide can vote. Below are some category suggestions:
