Honoured to be included in the showcase awards amongst so many people I admire and respect.
Congratulations to all of them.
So, a big thank you to Peter Gannon and all the staff at PG Music for the award, but
also for producing such an amazing program as BiaB. It really has changed for ever, the way
I write and record music.
Cheers, ROG.

This continues to AMAZE me.
What other company would DO this? Like having the community of this forum isn't reward enough? Like having this MAGICAL product to realize the best potential of our music isn't enough? To have the people who "keep it going" and keep it energized "recognized" in this way is mind-boggling.
AMAZING.
Congratulations to all the awardees. It's a good list - a varied list of styles and influences, locales and personalities.
Y'all done good.
Thank You, Dr. Gannon - and all the folks at PGMusic. You make our lives better.

Honoured to be included in the showcase awards amongst so many people I admire and respect.
Congratulations to all of them. You beat me to it and said it better than I probably would've, so in a true "if it's not broken, don't fix it", I'm nicking this as my sentiment  p.s. I see this has already been quoted once, I have a feeling it will be again before this is over  EDIT: p.s.p.s. I also have a nasty suspicion that the only reason I made the cut is because that adds such an obscure country to your bragging list - and I'm the only one from it who's active on here!
