Punk Planet nominated for Utne Independent Press Award!

I’m happy to announce that the 2006 Utne Independent Press Award nominations have been announced and Punk Planet is once again among the finalists. This year we’re up in the “Arts Coverage” category, along with titles like Wax Poetics, subTerrain, Broken Pencil and more.

Apparently they’ll have the listings up on their site shortly, though currently they’re still displaying last years’ (and, come to think of it, I have no idea why last year was 2004 and this year is 2006, though I’m OK with dropping 2005 of the face of the earth if they are).

Anyway, it’s exciting to be nominated, and cross your fingers for a big win in their Jan/Feb issue.
