Re: Golden Boot Award Nominations!

Post by Dee »

We were so close to winning the Music Video of the Year Award for Glen Campbell. So close!
See: http://theboot.com/maddie-and-tae-2015- ... -the-year/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Alan Jackson won for Living Legend.
See: http://theboot.com/alan-jackson-living- ... ot-awards/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Isn't it ironic that it was Glen Campbell who helped Alan Jackson get his career off the ground?
{Jackson) caught his big break when (wife) Denise found country-pop star Glen Campbell waiting for a flight and gave him a copy of her husband's demo tape; Campbell in turn gave her contact information for his music publishing company, and the Jacksons picked up and moved to Nashville shortly thereafter. Campbell's company suggested that Alan take a year and hone his songwriting even further, and so he worked more odd jobs -- including in the mail room at The Nashville Network, plus some session singing -- before finally signing on as a staff writer. By night, he performed in Nashville clubs and recorded an updated demo with songwriter/producer Keith Stegall. In 1989, Jackson became the first artist signed to Arista's new country division.

Many, many thanks to all the fans of Glen Campbell's who voted, particularly one fan on our board who was a POWER VOTER for Glen to win a pair of Golden Boots.

Thank you to all who have voted and please keep those votes coming in!
Glen Campbell is still ahead--but only slightly--for best music video for "I'm Not Gonna Miss You".
Let's get this Golden Boot for Glen!
(The Living Legend award is not looking so good, but we can keep trying, if only to obtain a higher percentage of votes than GC has now.)

Thanks again!

Dee :)

Oh, no! "I'm Not Gonna Miss You" for Best Music Vid is behind again.

The M & T fans are voting heavily on their nominated song now.

Fans unite! Please keep voting as often as you can between now and Monday, June 8th, high noon.

We are not the only fans voting...word about the Golden Boot Award nominations has been shared with over 200,000 fans, world-wide.
However, as you can see from the see-sawing of the voting percentages, every fan and every vote counts to win this award (and the Living Legend award) for Glen Campbell. These award votes are entirely fan-driven.

Thanks so much!
