    Where’s your e-mail address?! I want to invite you to take part in this year’s hottest bands poll!
    Anyway, since that’s not easy to find…here’s what I’d write:

    Want to take part in this year’s hottest bands in Canada poll?

    The only criteria you need to follow in making your list are:
    1) the bands must be Canadian (however you want to define that); and
    2) they had a really good 2008 (again, however you want to define that).

    Apart from that, just rank the bands 1-10 (and position matters). You can provide as much or as little commentary as you want (though some is always nice). If you could get your list to me by around Oct. 27th, that’d be ideal. Let me know if you have any questions!
    Thanks,
    matthew

    Hey, you! Hmm, I think the only place I put it is on my “about” page, sorry … wow. I will rethink that one, haha.

    Thanks for the invitation! Excellent. I will get to work.

    Wasn’t it a good broadcast too? I was sure Holy Fuck was going to win though.
