Ya think we’d figure these things out, now wouldn’tcha?
We’d been listening to our XMRadio for some time and they were pumping their XM Nation Awards, where they give out awards for this and that. But the promos weren’t mentioning comedy. We hopped onto the site, but we didn’t see any categories for comedy. We figured, oh well, standup is screwed again.
But what’s this? Waaay down at the bottom of the (first) page of nominees for various music categories was a tiny drop down menu that enabled visitors to “Select another neighborhood.” These kids and their web design! What the bloody hell does “select another neighborhood” mean?!?!
Oh, well. Had we known, we mighta been able to hip our readers to the fact that Dane Cook, Lewis Black and Mitch Hedberg were slugging it out for XM Comic of the Year and Mitch Fatel, Gary Gulman and Tom Hester were vying for Best New Comic.
Oh… Gulman won for Best New and Dane Cook is the Comic of the Year.
