Wow, what a night filled with loads of great music and friends, some drove hundreds of miles to be there! Then there was Fiona Boyes, who came all the way from Australia, for one night, just to be at the awards show for her category. (Same as mine!) A great gal for sure…..Danielle Nicole performed, as well as myself in our categories. (She won in Best New Artist….YAY!) All were sensational! I can’t tell you how thrilled I was to be nominated, even though I didn’t win, we were all so exhilarated to be there. Congrats are in order to all the winners as well….. To Bob Kieser, who rose above all the crazy, Mercury retrograde nonsense!!! Thanks to you all for getting involved, supporting live music, and voting for your favorite artists, you’re the reason we’re here!

Thanks, too, for all the pix from the show: Laurie Neuhaus, Laura Lamun, and Sheila Pence!!!
