I’ve compiled a list of links to the candidates from ballot 2 of the 2005 IBMA awards ballots. This list is not exhaustive (though it was exhausting to put together). It includes all candidates I could find a link for quickly, except the individual vocal and instrumental performers. I may do that list another day, but for now have fun. Don’t forget to check the “Open off-site links in new window?” checkbox in the sidebar. That way the links will open in a new window and you won’t lose your place here. Click the “more” link to see the links.
