I received part of the prize today, a Michael Weiss CD, and a 4-disc set of Roland Kirk. I don't really know either artist's music at all so this seems like a great introduction! Thanks again for the contest and prize!
Cool! I really wanted to pick Winnipeg since most Toronto teams make my stomach turn, but nice to see they came through for me this one time! Yep, my first win, I think I've participated in this every year you've offered it, so this is nice. See you next year!
