Are live albums allowed?

I like it!
You should be expecting a list from me, probably by the end of the night

It's all good.
Now just make a song list and we'll put it all in the past. Please (insert picture of cute small mammal with large eyes)

Oh and the album/song lists are meant to be annual and there will definitely be scoring changes for the 09 list.

Maybe he's pregnant.  I know my wife gets pretty cranky when she's pregnant.
