I want my MAMA!

Sorry, I couldn't resist that title.

I honestly have mixed feelings about the whole thing. In one sense I think it is nice that Madison has a music awards and I got a buzz when I visited the last half of the gala last year. At the same time the whole process is sort of messed and if Madison musicians really wanted to help earn money for the arts at Madison schools I'm sure we could earn more just having benefits that go straight to the arts programs and avoid the medal ceremonies and scandalous voting process... I DO have much respect for Rick and all the fine folks that make this event happen.

Anyway the Motor Primitives advanced to the final rounds:
