Balcony TV nominated for Webby Award

A doff of the Hot Press Newsdesk headphones goes to Balcony TV.Com who’ve been nominated in the Viral Video Category of the 2008 Webby Awards, the internet version of the Oscars.
They’re up against Chocolate Rain (www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwTZ2xpQwpA"); Here Comes Another Bubble (www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwTZ2xpQwpA"); I Got A Crush On Obama (www.barelypolitical.com/featured/episode/Crush_on_Obama"); and Tony vs. Paul (www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJzU3NjDikY).
If you’re not au fait with Balcony TV, it’s a live music show broadcast from the balcony of Pauline Freeman, Tom Millett and Stephen O’Regan’s apartment in Dame Street, Dublin 2.
Acts who’ve performed acoustically – and helped the site break through the one million hits barrier – include The Flaws, Ham Sandwich, Eleanor McEvoy, Luan Parle and Future Kings Of Spain.
