    What about Best Musician or Musicians? For what is music without the people who make it?

    Best gig? Or would that fall under the "best live Irish/visiting act"?

    I had too much on my hands at the end of 04, and just forgot this year. Good luck with it!

    I've added to my sig as well.

    I don't think there's need for a Best Live Act along with Best Gig. And Best Cheesy Pop Act sounds a bit too Smash Hits for my liking! :D

    Best Singer and Best Songwriter added!

    Cheers Trish.

    As opposed to just best Gig how about best gig and a best music festival. We have had a few over the last year and some were pretty awsome.

    Don't think we had any more than usual.. in fact even less with no Slane last year.

    Oxegen, Heineken Green Energy, Electric Picnic.. missing out any worthy ones?

    Think Best Gig will cover it but if anyone agrees with TomTom, voice up!
