It's tough sluggin' it out with the big wigs like Camille Paglia, Greil Marcus, Bob Christgau and David Ritz, but Sharkforum's own John Kruth did get honorable mention this year in Da Capo's Best Music Writing Anthology for 2005 for his article Townes Van Zandt: the Self Destructive Hobo Saint published in Sing Out! 2004. Congrats to John, and kudos to Editor Paul Bresnik for his exceptional good taste! Go to www.johnkruth.com for that article and more.
