wtf? I just saw it on the music choce artist facts...the radio something awards Dec 14th..as far as I can tell the last tour they did was 2004 and the last album released was a "best of" in '04 as well. Don't get me wrong I like VH, but I think that if you believe in awards (and I dont just because of this reason) that it should go to someone who did something in that particular year. Please if I'm wrong and they did release an album in 05 correct me...otherwise this is just another example of blatant manipulation of the mainstream music scene in the states by the music industry...how much you wanna bet if they win they then release an album...

no it said nominated for the awards on Dec 14th...perhaps they left off some info or a typo...we listen music choice a lot and this is the first time I've seen this fact. Anthony is doing a solo thing but this has to be a mistake or something.
BTW I just listened to "Plug the Monkey" on the Resonance cd...very nice...

the radio music awards is what it is, it also lists A-smith for being nominated for artist of the year (What it takes is playing now) 
EDIT: At least A-smith just kicked off (10/30) what they say is their biggest tour ever, the "Rockin the Joint" tour with Lenny Kravitz as their special guest.
