Will you have a category for worst Dallas Observer writer? My nomination would be the person who wrote this: "...I am a Philistine chauvinist. Ninety-nine times out of 100, I would sooner pound chopsticks into my ear canals than listen to a chick with an acoustic guitar."

wait... really... I have no clue who any of those guys are. I guess that is a good thing.

Can any one label which band is which?

I don't know why but I have some morbid fascination with placing each dudebros face with each bands terrible music (which I assume is terrible).

I like how the dude in the bottom pic is rockin' the guyliner with the Native American t-shirt. Sweet!

leaving it up to voting is a large part of why these award things stink.

heather, you didn't even need to respond to that jackass. it looks like you have a stalker in your midst.

The Guitarist from Dirty Hairy beat up the bassist of black tie dynasty. And thats after the bassist ran him over with a car. That doesn't really have anything to do with their music, which sucks, but i thought it was funny.

Just sayin'.

9:30:

does your opinion of ANYTHING matter when it is obvious that you spent enough time on heather's myspace desperately trying to dig up information that you think is POTENTIALLY embarassing?

no. of course it doesn't

Wasn't there a WSJR award thing last year? And didn't someone accuse someone else of writing in his name too much or something?

Every thread's comment section is your idea of the perfect award show, 5:34.

Also, what? No Burden Brothers photo?

Oh and then, YOU guys fill in the "Write-In" with three bands that you feel are deserving.

You know, I think this would be perfect. We already know the truth about who actually is a worth a shit around here, the blog supports good music and spreads the word. I think it would be AWESOME to focus solely on the negative. I am so serious. You chose perfect examples and the tone of your blurb was right on. That would be such a fun direction.

Or you could really just go down the list and talk about every single DOMA nominee and how they do or do not fit into the category or good taste, save for a few examples.

Every day on this blog is a music awards vibe dedicated to showcasing the hidden gems around here from a certain spectrum. Go for the funny. I want to hear WSJR talk about the Feds, not OVEO, you know? We know you like Undoing and Select. Let's hear some serious thoughts on the WRONG. On BTD. On PPT. Follow me?

Just my opinion.
