Linkin Park have been nominated for two awards at mtvU's 2007 Woodie Awards, which are based on the musical tastes of college students. The categories are: The Good Woodie (Commitment to Social Causes) Guster - Reverb organization. Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Mental Health Awareness efforts. Thom Yorke - Friends of the Earth Linkin Park - Music For Relief Alicia Keys - Keep A Child Alive The Viral Woodie (Internet Success) Akon - "Don't Matter" Gym Class Heroes - "Shoot Down The Stars" Lily Allen - "Smile" Linkin Park - "What I've Done" The Shins - "Phantom Limb" You can vote at the following links; Good Woodie Viral Woodie Thanks to >>In The End<< and LPInside.com.br.
I'm sure I'll take some heat for this, but I actually hope Gym Class Heroes- Shoot Down the Stars wins for Internet Success simply because that song is so utterly amazing. Though I really hope they win the good woodie. Thatd be really good for the band. I gotta admit though, Woodie is an awful name for an award. *humps mike stand*
haha yeah, and he is the leader right now as far as votes go! Chester may win his first award as a solo artist
What's the use of categorizations, if everybody votes for the band, which is most appreciated anyway? If there was a jury, which researches on how much success organisations like Music for Relief have, then that award would make sense. But we, as the voters, can't really tell, what is achieved by whom and where - and we vote for our favourite band anyway. I think that's stupid. Thus, if LP wins the Good Woodie, they'll get the Viral Woodie as well, I think. I voted anyway. For LP of course
I've only donated like 8 dollars worth of money to Music For Relief, but I still love the organization. 8 dollars is better than nothing I guess. I bought the bandana and two wristbands at PR. I hope LP wins this woodie, they definitely deserve it more than anyone else.
