I just uploaded a video to a contest to win a piano. Please vote for my video! It's possible to vote even more than once -- it's limited to once a day.

And, of course if you want, you should upload your own videos. There are only four videos so far, so I think I might help Sonny out by posting about the competition here, which I'm happy about since Sonny seems like a nice dude.

Thank you for reading, watching and VOTING! (Mine is the Autumn Leaves video)

Sonny's Piano Contest

BUMP/update

Hey evryone .. the competition is heating up and there are about three weeks left . . at the moment I am not in the top three but if I don't win I do have a favorite . . . Darrel Farris.

My reasoning is that the guy seems like he really needs a piano and is dedicated to the art. Among the top three, the other two either look like they already have excellent support from parents (and probably an excellent piano at home) or it is not clear how dedicated they are to piano music or pianos in general.

Of course, with three weeks left, and the possibility of one vote per person per day, there is a lot of time left and I still hope for more votes! I cite my own dedication to the art, swingin' LH, and penurious circumstances as my qualifications for earning a free piano. For those who have voted for me so far, thanks!!!

Today and tomorrow are the last days for voting in the Sonny's Win a Free Piano contest. At stake is a really nice Knabe grand (free shipping) for the winner, plus other prizes. You are allowed to vote for as many videos as you like, once each day.

'Sonny' has announced that 7th-10th places will receive a small prize and so I believe he will offer another kind of prize to places 4-6. I am in 8th place now and could get to 6th with just a few votes (under ten right now).

If you have time and use facebook, I would be thankful if you could vote for my video 'Autumn Leaves'.

Also, the top two videos are very close to one another . . . one vote could make a difference in who takes home these pianos.
