RE: ROCK GUITARIST DENIS TAAFFE CONSIDERED FOR GRAMMY AWARD IN 9 CATEGORIES

["Taaffe, Denis G" <dtaaffe@indiana.edu>]

Hi,
ah carefull with the phrasing. WEll, I submitted a C dto Naras/recording 
academy, they made me a voting member after my second cd was lsited in 
three categories. and the way it works is it gos before a commitee who 
screens them and selects them for the entry lists.Each category has 
anywhere form 36 to 450 soem entries, out of those votingmembers choose 
the top5 fivee which will be actual grammi nominees!! My best chance is in 
best rock instrumental performance as I have 3 entries in that categories 
and there are a total of 36 entris in it and three are mine!!!Well, I am 
just pleased to be listed!!in other categories I am in it ranges from 78 
to 400+ (like bes new artist and other general categories).

Denis,

that is excellent news - great profile building stuff - I really hope you
manage to get a lot of coverage out of it, and some good gigs and CD sales!
:o)

I'm not familiar with the structure for the Grammies - how many are there 
in
each category you've been nominated in? who nominated you? It all sounds
very exciting!

cheers
