I just discovered that NME are taking votes for their awards next month. www.nme.com/awardsvote There's loads of categories we can vote for LAR in: Best British Band Best New Band Best Live Band Best Album Best Track (we should all vote for the same track fro maximum effect - I'd suggest So Sad) Best Video (again, we should probably all vote So Sad) Best website - loveamongstruin.com You don't have to enter any personal details (unless you want to enter the competition at the end) and it seems you can vote as many times as you like So let's get voting and see if we can get LAR shortlisted for one of the awards poetress x ps: voting closes soon (they don't say exactly when) so we need to be quick

Voted again for xfm - just created a new email just for voting for LAR and such. Glad I could remember my old old postcode too.

I can't think of bands for second and third place on XFM, don't think I got into a single band on their debut album last year.

I was gonna say I need help with xfm voting because I couldnt think of any other new brit acts to list, and they were required fields...but I did suspect it would be limited to UK residents only. poop

^ for this competition, Kt? www.xfm.co.uk/news/2011/vote-here-for-the-xfm-new-music-award-2011I don't think it is limited. As it let me vote and there are all sorts of countries listed I can't think of bands for second and third place on XFM, don't think I got into a single band on their debut album last year. I had the same problem. But then in the rules it says: If an entrant votes for the same act three times, only the first vote will be counted. So I think it's ok to list LAR in all fields, if you can't think of any other band

I put the Inner city Pirates second and How to Destroy Angels third (pushing it a bit with HTDA I know especially as they are not British) but ICPs definitely deserve some love I think.
Edit: Inner City Pirates are on their second album tho I've just remembered - ignore me.

^lol, I voted pirates too. I'm not convinced they're eligible, but if they are they deserve my vote But I've also voted with a different email address and left choices 2 and 3 blank and my vote has still been accepted, so I don't think you *have* to pick three acts. poetress x
