Can you feel the electricity in the air? Yes, it's that extra-tingly time of year once again - it's BarFly Season! And the BarFly Awards are coming up hard, at the Rialto, on Sunday, October 15th. But what are awards, without nominees? Another awesome party, anyway, but it's the nominees who give this one its special flavor. But, mommy, where do nominees come from? Why, from you! From your heart...

Take a few minutes to nominate your favorite hometown heroes for a 2006 BarFly Award, and score your invitation to the social event of the season! On Sunday, October 15th, at The Rialto, BarFly will once again celebrate the best and brightest of the Portland bar scene and beyond. Last year was a blast, and this year will be even better - more bars (fewer lines!), more booze (our proud sponsors include Tarantula, Wiser's, Polar Ice, and Miller!), and more debauchery than you can shake a stick at. The 2006 BarFies is an oh-so-exclusive invitation-only soiree. How do you get invited? Nominate your favorite bartenders, waiters, bouncers, bands, hairstylists, and writers for the BarFly Awards they so richly deserve. Nominations will close on Thursday, October 12th, so vote now!
