It's not the link, it's the website forbidding you access.

AJ would you be able to find out if non subscribers can actually vote online please?

The ARIA debate is a reminder of how many people working in the Arts don't comprehend how large and diverse our jazz talent is. Perhaps one way of helping contemporary jazz gain more of a profile would be to lobby like hell to make the festival numero uno.

In other words, forget the Tram, we may now have bigger (sustainable) fish to fry.

Such choices – Wangaratta or the tram pales by comparison.
