Besides qualifying to become a member, you must also cough up a bunch of
cash every year to get voting rights and the other "perks?". I would love
to see Juan walk up on that stage and win an award, but until they give him
credit by winning for best ELECTRO/Techno record what's the point. The
uneducated masses don't know electro from hip-hop from Jazz and probably
never will. What would be great is if he wins he could go up and blast the
audience with a quick dose of knowledge like "The music Industry sucks and
you are all sheep!!!". Only problem with that is, he's not Kanye West so no
one would even listen.

Subject: RE: (313) Juan Atkins Up For A Grammy
yeah, just to clarify
How do I qualify to become a Voting member?
You need to have creative or technical credit on a minimum of six tracks
(or their equivalent) in at least one voting discipline and the album must
have been commercially released in the United States. Qualifying tracks
can
be on one album or a combination of albums. In the music video and craft
categories you must have at least six commercial or promotional
videos/albums released in the United States.
Who does not qualify as a Voting member?
Applicants who are credited as Executive Producer, Assistant Producer,
A&R,
and Production Coordinators are examples of non-voting categories. If you
think you might not qualify, call Member Services at 310.392.3777 or your
local chapter to discuss your questions.
so it's up to all the members of The Recording Academy that have voting
privileges
sorry Mike - were with you in spirit on this one but I don't think there's
much most of us can do to influence this vote
it's one of those "behind closed doors" type of things

F me! How depressing a read is that list of nominations, especially the
'dance' ones ... but I press on to find the category I want to vote
in...
(One man's depressant is another's ecstasy, I know.)
