After much begging, I managed to get a photopass for the Choice Music Awards last week.  A debate broke out in State about Adrian Crowley (I’m not fimiliar with his music, found his performance dull and unmemorable, yes I know the award ward was for best album, but in this day and age live music is where the money is), but I personally felt CODES (opening the night with a bang), ASIWYFA (with an explosive performance), the Duckworth Lewis Method (with their mini comedy act) and, much to my surprise the Swell Season (Glen somehow kidnapped Leonard Choen’s guitarist from Spain) all put on far better performances. Anyhow, some pics below.
