It's the time of the year, where you get to vote your favorite rock artists for a chance of winning the prestigious awards in the rock music scene. Ugh, not true enough as the votes have already been casted. I was eager to vote for my fave rock band when the site prompted that I'm already done voting. What? Is this a case of a flying voter? Nah. My theory is that the counters were not reset immediately after the 2009 polls. I was about to report that when I figured that it's already of no use.

All that I could do now is pasting the set of nominees for your reference.

Wee! I really hope Kiko and Ely would win the artist of the year award. It'll be historic! But it's a good year for Archipelago and Tanya Markova. And my current favorite, General Luna, was nominated! This is quite interisting.
