    Mainers win major awards!

    Two pairs of Mainers have won big awards this past month!

    First off: The Flannery Brothers, Maine's own kid's music stars, won the children's music category of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest! Votes from fans online, undoubtedly many of you reading, helped nudge them over the top. For their victory, Mike and Dan receive $1,000 worth of Mackie, Ampeg and Crate recording products, as well as 1,000 custom printed CDs. Go Flan! Listen to "One Wasn't Enough," their winning song, at http://www.jlsc.com/winners/2008b/lennon_awards.php.

    The other winning team is Eepy Bird, the Buckfield-based team who created the Webby Award-winning "mentos and diet coke" viral YouTube video. Well, they've won another Webby Award - this time for their Extreme Sticky Note Experiment video. Fritz and Stephen won the People's Voice Award for their video, which can be viewed at htttp://www.eepybird.com.

    Congrats to everyone!
