People's Choice Awards trophies
I was informed this week by the Corporate Events Guide People's Choice Awards that I have won the Best Nationwide Bands category for 2010. This is my second consecutive win in this category, having also won it in 2009. The photo at right shows the two trophies sitting side by side on my piano keys. My grateful thanks go again to all those who supported my nomination!

I received a mention in the Wairarapa Times-Age newspaper today following my People's Choice Awards win. A few errors in the story, but otherwise a fairly straight article and all good for helping raise my profile in the region. My thanks to Nathan Crombie of the Times-Age for the article, and to Mark Harris of Event Action for dobbing me in!
