With the cancellation of the Birdies, Tim Drik of Gethsemane has decided to pawn all of his earthly belongings on eBay to create the first, and plausibly last, ever RMA (Replacement Music Awards.) All you bastards better be grateful, because I no longer have any furniture in my house.

Shameless copy-paste from the Birdies website:

The categories are -
Best Band
Best Solo Artist
Best Band Member
Best Underground Artist
Best Newcomer
Best Artwork
Best Album
Best Single
Best Collaboration
Best Website
Best Live Act
Best Gig/Tour/Festival
Most Attractive Male
Most Attractive Female
Best Record Label/Management
Best Personality


It'll be held in some vaguely-well-known arena in some vaguely-well known place, I haven't decided yet. Anyone who wants to be a judge, contact me, and anyone who wants to nominate themselves with shameless self-promotion... also contact me.

Also, buy my album that's coming out in a few weeks. I need to have enough money to buy a shirt to show up.

"I wouldn't mind judging this... award show?"

--.` Ryan Ross Hernandez.

Best Album:

Dark Secret Love by, Ryan Ross Hernandez
Final Sales: 4,468,781

"The album is called Dark Secret Love and that's because it incorporates a lot of the lessons, a lot of the observations, and a little bit of advice. Like a heartbreak handbook."

In Game Info: http://www.therockstarga...o_album.asp?AlbumID=2797

RP Info: http://www.therockstarga....aspx?g=posts&t=3216

Best Single:

"A Never-Ending Trip to Heartbreak" by, Ryan Ross Hernandez
Final Sales: 1,784,474

In Game Info: http://www.therockstarga...single.asp?SingleID=8492

Lyrical Meaning

"The first track off the album, and I think it was like the second or third song I wrote for the record. After I had written it I knew I had a direction for the record. It sort-of brought together, very cohesively what I was trying to achieve with the idea of heartbreak and love, sort-of bringing that war-feel to a heartbreak. When you can't get through to somebody by loving them, the next choice is to get through to them hurting them and that is what A Never-Ending Trip to Heartbreak, is about. I don't recommend it. I'd recommend full-on global thermal nuclear war, before I'd recommend trying to make a lady jealous on purpose. It doesn't end well."

Music and structure

The song marked some changes from the music that Ryan Ross Hernandez was known for, which was the soft blues influence in his previous albums. Songs like this song from Dark Secret Love, along with "Love Is Really Nothing But a Dream" and "Fight On Until the Darkness Over Takes Us" went more towards Hernandez's more rock-oriented sound, which he showed more on Dark Secret Love.

Musically, the guitar riff and overall sound are very similar to the U2 song "Bad". Hernandez has admitted that while "A Never-Ending Trip to Heartbreak" may in fact resemble "Bad", he was not intentionally referencing it while composing his song.

Best Live Act

Ryan Ross Hernandez, is known for having many banters with his audience at a show. Most banters are very dirty, about sex, women. Some not so raunchy banters are when he speaks out on the media, his fan base, current events. Hernandez can be as serious and soulful at a show just as easily as he can be playful and make many suggestive jokes about sex and his penis.

At live shows, for most songs, Hernandez adds a very bluesy/soulful guitar solos to his tracks that go on much longer than the studio versions giving it a unique sound live to each. Ryan's collection of over 200 guitars, that he brings out on the road with him call for him to change guitars between every song he performance. He can easily be playing a acoustic tune one second, to a rock tune another and finish a show off with a gospel outro that gets the whole crowd singing along.

Most Attractive Male

The sexiest, most stylist motherf*cker in the industry right now.

(OOC: Give this guy a break. None of the actual characters know that the IMAs are back on, so his character is trying to fill a void. If you character wants to be in an awards show this year as of right now this is your only option. To blackball this because you know the Birdies are coming back outside of the context of the game is kind of lame and against the spirit of roleplaying.)

Best Band-Axiom: Kind of a long shot here but we have produced 2 critically acclaimed albums, 2 critically acclaimed EPs, and a covers album (although that wasn't to well received). Also created and promoted a festival (Rock for the World: New Year's Eve) and are working on the second of the biannual festival slated for June/July.

Best Band Member-Tim Dunn of Axiom: Tim writes with Mike Peck half of Axiom's music but was also the main writing and organizing force behind the Jazz All-Stars.

Best Newcomer-Axiom: Tim has been around forever I know so I don't know if he is eligible, but Axiom is a relatively new band.

Best Collaboration-The Jazz All-Stars (name subject to change): What is more exciting that a jazz sextet made up of superstars from every genre of music and several huge bands. More than just a song or a single this is an entire album that allows these fantastic musicians a chance to play music they would not normally get to play. Tim hopes that this can become more than a one-off thing and intends to continue recording music as the Jazz All-Stars as long as there is interest from all involved.

OOC: The point is you aren't supposed to know the Birdies exist. In the world of TRSG the Birdies were cancelled. Your character doesn't have that inside knowledge that was posted out-of-character. Again, it goes against the spirit of roleplaying to use out-of-character knowledge to make in-character decisions.

"The 20th IMAs/Birdies are cancelled until further notice because one of the presenters may be dead. Thankyou for your co-operation."

So officially, it was post-poned in character aswell, they just don't know when it's going to happen.
