Is MOTS eligible for this does anyone know  - I assume it is for albums released in the calendar year 2008? If all of the above is true, how does it get into the nominations? -------------- Clotty Back to top

By the way, do you like this album and have you got the live version ? I love the live of Bilbao and believe me, it is better than the Itunes version. Remember, we were over there....about one year ago Regards -------------- Ray said : "it is a shame you don't play" manintherain said: "You´d better ask Mr. Y who was first" yanouch65 says: "I am in love with Scotland" Back to top

That`s some pretty "wavey" hair those Blake guys have got going on there though.You know as far as the award goes for Best Performance In A Hair Salon,I`d say these boys have pretty much got that side of it just about sewn up...Or not?..       Back to top

Remember, we were over there....about one year ago I only have the iTunes download - I had assumed that the CD would be much the same as the download, but you say not, so maybe I should consider getting the CD too. ...and re Bilbao, how could I forget. The memories of the trip come flooding back every time I listen to MOTS. Regarding the award, the Best Album award is vote for by listeners of Classic FM. However, since last year, just before it was released, I have not heard any of MOTS played on there. They seemed to suggest it was brilliant and then forget about it. Very strange. Maybe we should remind them with a mass of requests to play it :-) Clotty -------------- Clotty Back to top
