Subject: RE: Congrats! Kendall,Jacqui &Dan Grammy nominatio
Congratulations to all involved.

By the way, I don't know the timing on this--as to when you have to get your votes in as to who wins in a given category. But I do know that anybody can become a member of the Grammy voters by joining the Grammy association--I think there's a fee of $75/ year or something like that.   A choral group in my area did exactly that. Lots of members of the group joined. And the group won in that category.   There's a strong suspicion there is a causal relationship.

Now folkies may be completely above stuffing the ballot box.   But if we really want Dan, Kendall, Jacqui, et al. to win, it's just possible Mudcatters can influence the outcome. If we don't mind using this tactic.

If of course it's not already too late for voting.

Of course it's also very possible that the Utah tribute will win without any of this. If I had to guess, I'd say the only strong competition might be the entry from--who was it--Loudon Wainright?
