-----------March 15, 20062006 Singing News Fan Awards - My MissesIf you are a Singing News subscriber, you can view the Top Ten nominees for each Fan Awards category on the Singing News website. I posted my first round votes a few weeks ago. Most of them made it. Obviously, I wish all of them had made it, but life goes on!
The following got my vote this year, but didn't make the cut with the majority of fans: Alto: Susan Jackson Album: Anything But Ordinary, Everything But Typical (Dove Brothers) Horizon Individual: Jeremy Lile (Crystal River Quartet) Bass: David Hester Songwriter: Joel Lindsey Soloist: Mark Lowry Musician: Doug Riley Pianist: Anthony Burger Artist Website: www.hopescall.com Small Market DJ: James Metcalf, WJFJ, Columbus, NC My only real surprise is that the majority of fans failed to agree with me in voting for Burger and Riley. Maybe they assumed they wouldn't be eligible. At any rate, the contestants are now decided and subscribers will have the chance to vote in the second round when they get their May 2006 issue. One situation struck me as interesting. Peg McKamey Bean is in the top ten for the overall Favorite Female Singer, but she isn't nominated for an Alto or Soprano award despite there being relatively less competition for a top ten slot in those categories. (It should be noted that McKameys members Carol Woodard and Connie Fortner are in the running for Alto and Soprano respectively, but I'm speculating that Peg's role is considered to be that of a second soprano or female "lead" possibly and so she's not eligible. Otherwise, you'd think a person getting enough votes to finish in the top ten for an overall award would also get enough votes to finish in the top ten for a corresponding lesser award.)
