Peter and the staff at PG, Thank you very much for including me in this award. This software and especially the real tracks are a dream come true for me. It is the most
amazing tool I have ever come across for creating music. Your company is nothing short of amazing and your generosity and support are a real testament to those that
work there. I also would like to thank the supporters of the forum who post songs and take the time to listen with a critical ear and offer suggestions. It has
been my extreme pleasure to participate in this wonderful community of caring and creative folks. Thanks again and congratulations to the other winners. Tom

Peter and the entire PG family...
Thank you. For the "award", of course. But, more so, for a truly remarkable product. It gets more AMAZING all the time. EVERY musician, every singer, every songwriter ought to have it - although this place would get WAY too crowded!!! - It seems to be growing by leaps and bounds lately...
Also, thanks for providing us with such a wonderful place to hang out.
It's like family. And a truly amazing amount of talent in a relatively small community. Can't be beat!
Congratulations to everyone on the list. It's well deserved.
What an incredible company.

Hi Peter,
It took me by surprise. I just found out I'm one of the winners. I couldn't say it better than Bob: This is the best Christmas gift I could have received! Thank you for your generosity and for creating the greatest songwriting tool ever.
Congratulations to the other winners. I'm proud to be a member of this wonderful community.

Wow! Thanks Peter, to be in the same list and company of such fine musicians is more than an honor for me.I'm looking forward to the use of the new features (already been experimenting with it for the last couple of weeks) and to create the best songs I can. To PG Music, I'll have to say, thank you very much for the unique and versatile software which has brought so many hours of joy and entertainment to me and all of its users.
Happy New Years to all!
Mike B.

EXCELLENT choices! I would have picked the same people! Except I might have put Floyd Jane's name on my list twice... he da man!!
Congratulations to each of the winners.... you have at various times throughout 2013 done the following things:
1) amazed me with your diverse talents...
2) made me jealous...
3) taught me some of your tricks (without killing me afterwards)
4) made me jealous...
5) used PGMusic products in ways I would never have thought of
6) made me jealous...
7) helped others learn to create original music...
8) made me jealous...
9) encouraged one another...
10) Did I mention that y'all made me jealous ?
I am SOOoo impressed by the talent on this forum!
and I am also VERY impressed that Peter Gannon is the kind of guy who would make such a generous and gracious gift to so many people! One more reason why PGMusic is simply THE BEST software company in the world, head and shoulders above whoever is #2

Peter:
BIAB/RB/RealTracks is one of the most remarkable feats of imagination I'll ever experience in this lifetime.
By way of contrast, IBM's "triumphant" Deep Blue, with its mindless combinatorial approach, is just a midget with an over-sized right arm.
Your creation is almost the stuff of science fiction: machine and human intelligence welded together.
And, of course, congratulations to the winners of the PG award. Their comments are a testament to how we feel about you, your company and the way the Forums have enabled musicians to interact, collaborate, laugh, scream and, above, all Have Fun. Thank you.
Dean Clark (aka Akeck Rand)

Hi Peter and all the staff at PG Music.
I am very honoured to be amongst those listed for your very generous offer. I learned about it whilst on an epic 5000km trip around Zimbabwe and am absolutely thrilled. I am returning home with 4 and half new songs written and (almost) ready to be recorded.
Can’t wait.
Congrats to all the award winners.

We realize this thread is from 6 months ago. But Di and I would like to add our congrats to the winners. We have come to know almost all them over the past six months. And what an fantastically talented group of performers, writers and composers!
As wonderfully talented as they are, the real star here is PG Music, particularly Peter. Your software is more than any musician could ever hope to have. And the genuine generosity of your company leaves us in awe. Few, if any, for-profit companies are this generous and supportive of their customers.
A big congrats to the deserving winners and huge tip of the hat to PG Music!
One last thing ... the quality of music on the showcase forum is simply amazing. You gents and ladies are truly talented and it's been a real pleasure getting to know you and listening to your efforts!
Alan & Di
