Last week we posted Grimy Goods’ Best Concert Photography of 2014, and we said we’d be following up with an epic giveaway where both our readers and photographers can win some amazing prizes. Now it’s time to let that epic giveaway take place! We need you to vote on which of our Best Concert Photos of 2014 you think are the best. Your vote will enter you in a raffle to win a new 16 GB Google Nexus 7 valued at $200 or a Visa Gift Card worth $100. Not to mention, our photographers will have a chance to win up to $300 based on your votes. Each photo category will award one photographer $100.

You will need to place your vote for the following three photography categories:

1. Most Compelling Photo (overall striking photo, powerful, an epic show moment, just WOW) — view all photos here

2. Best Concert Crowd Photo (can be artist with crowd, or crowd shot alone) — view all photos here

3. Most Creative/Artistic Photo (style, artsy fartsy, black and white, insane color compositions, etc.) — view all photos here

At the bottom of this page you will find an online form where you can submit your vote. Be sure to cast your vote by noting the photographer’s full name, the band they shot and the venue. For example:

Jane Doe: David Bowie at The Echo
