Awesome! :D :D :D Hope you win it, too!
On an unrelated note, I was wondering, what ever happened to the David Skinner Q & As that were gonna happen last January? Was he gonna make a video or something to answer those Qs? If so, did he ever do it? I’m especially interested in the topic of “Taming Vibrato” that was discussed in the comments of that blog post.
