We did it, you guys!! Thanks to your nominations, LAGenX is one of the finalists vying for the Shorty Award in INNOVATION! YES!!

But here's where it gets difficult...

Our competitors have TENS OF THOUSANDS more followers than we do, which means they're likely to beat the crap out of us. Yes, we know that OUR followers are the coolest, most loyal and best-dressed (and we really like that thing you’re doing with your hair these days, btw), but we're at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. So, our only shot at winning this thing is if you ask YOUR followers to vote for us.

So you tell two friends…who tell two friends…who tell two friends…(Although as GOOD-LOOKING and POPULAR as you are, we’re certain you have more than two friends.)

Your personal, original nominations count toward our final tally, so no need to vote again unless you want to update your reason.

You know the drill. Send your friends here: www.ShortyAwards.com/LAGenX And VOTE!

The more creative their reason (I vote for LAGenX because...), the better, although it should have something to do with innovation. Shocking.

“But what’s in it for us?” you ask. One word: BOOZE!

That’s right! If we win, we're throwing a big ol' bash and anyone who voted for us gets an invite.  Probably at Jason's house, because, well, he's the only one with a house.  And yes - the booze is on us! Food, too. You also get treated to a private concert by our very own Jeff, plucking away on his spanky guitar.

Let’s recap: FREE BOOZE, FOOD and LIVE MUSIC! And all you have to do is cast a wee vote if you haven't yet - which is much less wee in the big picture - and ask your friends to do the same. After all, what's a party without your friends? You may as well be that awkward, single girl at a wedding reception who never gets asked to dance. Or - as we like to call her - Gina.

So, again, please go here and vote if you haven't already: www.ShortyAwards.com/LAGenX

And send your friends there. Pop off a few tweets...maybe a few DMs...and let's make this viral! A win for LAGenX is a win for your liver. And independent radio! And Generation X. And puppies. You don’t hate puppies…DO YOU?

Voting ends this Friday, February 5th. Let's do this!!

We love you.
Jason, Gina and Jeff
