Wow. Even on a year when we are not throwing the kind of plugged-in hootenanny that the North Bay music scene deserves, 1,027 people took the time to vote in the third annual NORBAY Awards. Very cool. While we're sorry that events conspired against our hosting a live music awards ceremony this year, Blues category winner Volker Strifler has decided to throw an ad hoc NORBAYs celebration at his Friday, Oct. 26, gig at the Last Day Saloon (120 Fifth St., Santa Rosa; 9:30pm, $10. 707.545.2343), welcoming other NORBAY winners as well as North Bay music fans to come on down and raise a joyful noise to our vibrant music scene. Next year, we'll be back and ready again to do it ourselves! First place winners are indicated in bold; second place, in italics. Thanks for voting.
