Remember there's still time to nominate, and there's another award...peoples choice.....does someone in the Sheffield Music Scene deserve special recognition? Have they made a lot of money for charity? Have they got the best fans? Did they help an old lady across the road (to a gig obviously!)? Are they the most hard working person? Best manager? Best producer? Best promoter?
nominations for this award should be emailed to me with the reason why the nominee deserves it!

All the nominees listed will go to a panel of judges (made up of independent people/music brains/general public who often visit gigs in Sheffield/venue managers-owners/other musicians/promoters etc - no judge is allowed to vote for any band/artiste they may be connected to in anyway) on March 9th - judges will vote on the winners. Their decision is final. However in the case of a tie Sheffield Scenester has the casting vote. Some judges have asked to remain anonymous.
