I loved the flutes on “Locomotive Breath”, and I also love what Green Tea is doing with Celtic Music. They’ve got my votes for the rest of April, and beyond!

I came here to vote for Hester after reading about this contest on MySpace. Now I’ve looked up Katie Thompson, after reading about her on here. I am now voting for both of these fine artists, and I’d like to thank you guys for bringing them to my attention. I’ll be voting for the 2 of them for the rest of the month, and maybe a few other new groups as well.

Wolfman: Hoss changed the rules during the contest today, and now voting will continue for all the remaining 23 bands until the final Saturday of April! That means we could still vote Katie into the top 5, maybe even into 1st place! Tell all your friends and fellow Katie-fans, vote every day until the end!!!!!

Hey Tony…thanks for the heads up! I saw that; but it wasn’t clear to me, so I guess we have a lot of work to do. As far as I’m concerned, Katie should be at the top of the list. As you know, her sound is all her own and when you hear “Impossible”, her 2nd album, you’ll probably agree that it has an infectious vibe. I’ve already voted today, so maybe I’ll put up a post on “The Pack’s” web site asking for some support. I’m sure if we hit this hard, we can get Katie into the top 5.

Tony, and everyone else giving your votes to Katie…I made this shortened link that you can use to send Tweets with: http://bit.ly/Vote4KatieThompson
PS: As a side note, I just realized today, that another wonderful artist I have invested in is #6, Jodi Ann. If you’re giving more than one vote, she’s a good one! Cheers everyone!!
