| Giniling Festival is the one in the middle, obvs. |
Hey kids, my cousin's band, Giniling Festival, was nominated in this year's Globe Tatt Awards in the Indie Rocker category. Just head on to http://tattoo.globe.com.ph/tattawards to vote and see a sorta revealing picture of Saab Magalona. Or is that Maxene? IDK I can never tell which is which.

| can you tell me who this is in the comments? |
Anywho, all you need to do is be on Facebook and click on VOTE.
Here's my case for Giniling Festival. Let's put aside the fact that they're the only rock band in the list. They released their sophomore album for free. Yes. FOR FREE. AND ONLINE!
So, if you're voting for a band for an internet-related award-giving body, vote for somebody who actually used the internet. You know what, vote for them because they imparted their talents for free.
