WINNER?!

WELL, SINCE THE 1999 AND 2000 GIBSON BASS PLAYER OF THE YEAR AWARDS, I HAVE NOT WON ANY HONORS IN MUSIC.  WINNING BEST ALTERNATIVE / HEAVY ROCK ALBUM FROM USA'S INDEPENDENT MUSIC AWARDS FOR MY LATEST ALBUM OUT OF OUR MINDS, IS THE GREATEST HONOR YET.  I'VE WORKED HARDER ON THIS ALBUM THAN ANYTHING I'VE EVER DONE - REMEMBER THERE WAS A FILM, COMIC BOOK AND IT WAS INDEPENDENTLY RELEASED, PRODUCED, FINANCED... THOSE ARE THE REASONS FOR THE HARD WORK, NOT THE MUSIC ITSELF. THANK YOU TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES AND THE ORGANIZATION FOR RECOGNIZING OOOM AS A GOOD PIECE OF INDEPENDENT WORK.THERE IS A PEOPLE'S POLL TO PARTICIPATE IN IF YOU LIKE - YOUR CHOICE OF WHO YOU LIKE BEST! VOX POP!www.independentmusicawards.comCONGRATS TO ALL THE INDEPENDENT HARD WORKERS OUT THERE!XM
