(OoC: I'm not sure where to put this, but I think here is as good a spot as any. I want to put together a modern rock awards show RP, and I'm open to everyone's input and ideas for categories.

How it will work is once we have all our categories anyone can send me their nominations. each person can have up to 3 nominations per category. Then the top 5 in each category are the official nominees. then everyone votes for 1 out of those 5. Once voting is done the award show RP will begin, it will have all sorts of musical performances.

Qualifications to be nominated are...

That your artist is considered to be a rock artist.
That any albums/singles you nominate are by a rock artist, and were released after October 31st 2009.

Other rules

You can nominate your artist's albums/singles
You cannot nominate two of your artist's albums/singles in one category. Ex: If the category was best rock album I couldn't nominate two Reported Failure albums, only one.
You can vote for your artist in the final voting.

Categoy List (more will likely be added)
Best artwork (Album)
Best artwork (Single)
Best metal single
Best metal album
Best punk single
Best punk album
Best acoustic/soft or pop rock single
Best acoustic/soft or pop rock album
Best cover/tribute album
Best live/best of album
Best tour/live event
Best single
Best album

The date for the show will be sometime in October, that is why the cutoff date for nominations is October 31st.

OOC: Awesome! I'll definetely nominate Infinite for any category I can, and I hope everyone else does the same. Now the only problem I have is whether to nominate Midnight Skies or Blue Nebula for best album...
Kid Anything- Indie/Britpop/Shoegaze; influenced by Sigur Ros, XXYYXX, Kanye West, Blur, Oasis

(Bringing together an eclectic group of influences, Ulysses' songs are sung with carefree abandon by Nick Junk)

Kurt Ulysses - Songwriter, Guitarist, Backup Vocalist
Nick Junk - Vocals, Mojo



Infinite- Alternative/Experimental Rock; influenced by Muse, Radiohead, and The Beatles

(Known best for their experimental music and their frontman's eccentric behavior, the band disbanded after Eric Quillington's death to pursue solo careers or, in Matt Robert's case, peace of mind. Infinite released four albums over the course of their career; Blue Nebula, Midnight Skies, Insomnia, and Dancing about Architecture.)

Eric Quillington (Deceased) - Lead Vocals, Lead Guitar, Piano, Primary Lyricist
Matt Roberts - Bass
Greg Oldson - Drums, Backup Vocals, Secondary Lyricist
Amelia Florentine - Keyboards, Piano, Lyricist, Backup Vocals

"When asked 'how do you write?' I invariably answer, 'one word at a time', and this answer is invariably dismissed. But that's all it is. It sounds too simple to be true, but consider the Great Wall of China, if you will: one stone at a time, man. That's all. One stone at a time. But I've read you can see that motherfucker from space without a telescope."

OOC: You can go ahead and nominate now, but I'd suggest waiting. There may be more categories added. If anyone has ideas for categories let me know. Also as this is scheduled for October sometime, I plan on having the deadline for your nominations about a week and a half before the RP starts, so albums may come out between now and then that you would want to nominate. Either way if you change your mind about something you can post your final nominations later. :)

OOC: Yeah, Laurelles and I've got some plans that may qualify, though they won't probably make their rp debut till late Septebmber/early October the earliest (ball park guess). Also, another good category might be best live act, who knows? I'll get to nominating sooner or later.

OOC:
I should mention that anyone can make nominations, it just has to be rock artists that you nominate.

I am also adding two new categories.

Best Newcomer (Artist)
Best Newcomer (User)

THe best new user award is OOC based, so just nominate new members to the game who you think have made a good impact on the game with their rock artists. The target daste for the RP is October 1oth or 17th, IO'm not sure yet. But if both dates work for your band and you want them to perform, then sign em up and I'll put them on the list.
