"Posthumously Awarded by Q-Music for a lifetime contribution to song writing. 2006. Presented by Costa Zouliou Triple J. Accepted by Ian Haug (Powderfinger & The Church) on Grants behalf.
Sat behind the bar in Fortitude Valley's Iconic Rics Bar (Grants Watering Hole) for some years."

I wonder how / why this award is up for sale? Ric's didn't go out of business did it?
(I have nothing to do with this sale and don't know who is selling it. I'm curious and a little sad that this is for sale.)

Austin, Ric's isn't for sale, as far as I know, but artwork displayed there over the years is https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/fortitud e-valley/art/art-collection-for-sale/116 9187823

It's very sad, and disrespectful, that they would sell Grant's award. If they don't want it, it should just be given to Grant's son.
