Thank You Village Voice | Best of NYC 2005

Best Blog for Knowing What Scenester Concerts to Avoid Every Night - BROOKLYN VEGAN
The accolade sounds meaner than it should, but I do blame BROOKLYN VEGAN for filling every good-to-great show with camera-phone looky-loos and people taller and typically more attractive than me and my rock-crit buds. Thanks, Vegan—I can't see the stage, and your dude just spilled his mascara on my shirt. -Nick Sylvester

and congrats to SFJ...

Best Blog by a Writer From 'The New Yorker' - SASHAFREREJONES.COM
It's fun enough to flip through The New Yorker on the train, reading about Diplo and Paul Wall while everyone around you assumes you're soldiering through the latest on Iraq and Edmund Wilson. At SASHAFREREJONES.COM, the magazine's top-notch pop critic spews the uncut version of his signature blend: Imagine a really smart, really excited kid pulling off an impersonation of an august American Studies professor. -Mikael Wood

Say man, I think that "best of" on you is a crock. Seems like this author caught the tailend of what you have accomplished over the year and more, its ppl like Musicsnobbery who encourage readers to "follow him" what a wanker. He should cherish that award. He has the worst pics as well.

Nick Sylvester is the worst writer ever. Praise from him is meaningless.

Regardless, bv is still the best blog out there.

Congrats!!!

I may be a wanker, but at least I have fun and I am passionate about my music. I'll see you at the new show.

In any event, you're doing a heck of a job, Veganie.

I love how the Voice couldn't be bothered to actually LINK to you...

I know. They linked to Bunnybrains in their award so it seems like a conscious decision. I was going to say something sarcastic about it in the bunnybrains post, but I don't want to sound ungrateful. :-)

That guy is clearly bitter and looking for someone to blame for the fact that he feels uncool at shows.

I'm a newbie, but I adore your blog.
