We have to admit we were having trouble recollecting what made 2009 memorable, but after sifting through hundreds of nominations we pulled the best for the final reader’s poll!

A lot of people asked us why we’re polling and the answer is twofold. First, it allows us the opportunity to know what you, the reader, is into and thus better serve you in the future. Secondly, it’s a good way for us to check out the artists you’ve suggested that we’ve never heard of!

The poll will remain open until January 1, 2010 and the winners will be announced and awarded Golden Mustaches on January 6, 2009!
