Damn, I swore to never write a headline like that. Shit.
Anyway, the Woodie Awards are 8 days away (November 18th at Roseland Ballroom in NYC) and I can finally see the show in my head. We shoot it next Wednesday, then we edit to air on MTV, MTV2, mtvU and hi-def channel Palladia on December 4th.
More than 6 million votes have been cast so far — have you voted yet?
Besides all the confirmed performers — Death Cab For Cutie, The Dead Weather, Matt & Kim, and Passion Pit — there are a few more performers we are about to announce this week, and also some surprise performances coming that night. Not to mention a ton of artists and celebrities set to present awards and hang out, which we’ll announce soon, too.
Normally what I do to get my head in the game is load my iPod up with all the songs that will be performed on the show, in order, and I run around Prospect Park every morning and listen to them over and over. But since I am enormously fat now, I can’t run. And it’s more fun to blast the songs at home and eat meatloaf.
Ok, are you ready to see what the actual Woodie Award looks like?
It is extremely heavy, like 25 lbs at least! And you see that hammer? It comes off. One year, MOdest Mouse took the hammer and pounded the metal spike into the wood. Those rebels.
