		<description>Hi Karla,

Only WAMI Members are allowed to vote for the WAMI Awards Nominations. There are multiple Categories and Members are given 2 choices in each category. Some minimal votes in certain Categories are required. Please see the Rules in the WAMI Awards Nominations FAQ section.

&lt;ul&gt;
Anyone&lt;/ul&gt; can vote in the WAMI Peoples Choice Awards. They do not need to be WAMI Members. The Best Artist, Best Radio Station, Best Media Categories selections should be from Wisco this year for People&#039;s Choice. The public is asked to vote in at least 1 Category for a particular Wisconsin Region but is allowed a vote in each category. You are required to enter your email address. A valid email address is required. 1 chance to vote as described above is allowed. Please see the Rules in the WAMI People&#039;s Choice Awards FAQ section.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards,

Steve Tomczyk
WAMI Director of Online Communications

		<description>Hi, I would like to vote and am not a WAMI member. Are there supposed to be choices in each category or can you enter anyone that you would like? Thank you for your clarification. Peace.</description>

		<description>Hi Steve, my band &quot;Dual Rock&quot; would love to join WAMI..Can we still do it for this upcoming year (2012) or are we too late?  I ask because we have quite a few fans who would like to vote for us and I did not realize the voting was ongoing at this time.  Thanks,
Mike</description>

		<description>I am surprised and  very shocked that the WAMI organization has eliminated the Bluegrass category for this years awards. There are many deserving, talented, and hard working Bluegrass bands and artists that deserve as much recognition as any artist in these other categories!. Bluegrass, Blues and Americana music are the mainstays of the music industry in the northern half of Wisconsin. WAMI seems to focus too much on the musicians of the Metro area and they ignore to many of the great musicians from the other regions. Club DJ gets a category but the awesome Dobro or Fiddle player does not. What a shame.</description>

		<description>This new website is really a plus for the WAMI membership.  It helps all musicians to network and promote.  The best thing to do is to tell other musicians to join.  Jazz events have picked up since this new website has been developed.  I have particulary benefited.</description>
