Excited? Ya think?!? Imagine a puppy - tail going like 60 and whizzing on the floor. Yeah, that'd be me.
I think yer all good, Mike.

I've been travelling for the last two days, so only just chiming in on this amazing thread. Huge congratulations to all who are in receipt of Larry's extraordinary generosity, & special props to Rotarded for embracing the love. I can't remember such a good feeling here since the Leo story.
Larry, you're a complete star, you deserve special treatment, so now some of that good karma coming back your way.
Your prize - UK drum show 2017, if we can confirm your travel arrangements ASAP, you'll be staying in this suite (pictured) in the luxurious & historic Midland Hotel for the Friday & Saturday nights, with all costs covered. Additionally, you'll have full VIP access both days of the show including priority tickets to all / any of the main stage performances & masterclass clinics, plus offsite invite only events.
Wowza! Thanks, Larry! This is an amazing act of generosity on your part and I'm left both stunned and speechless. Dang man, that's a pretty high bar you've set.
Did I mention how stoked I am to be getting your Bronze Sensitone? I've been lusting after a bronze snare for years, so I'm super excited to play it! Sensitones are beasts! And with an SKB case, too? Damn, that's more awesome than I can find words for. Man ...
To pay it forward and to help maintain the spirit of generosity, I will pass my 5.5x14 Brass Sensitone on to some lucky winner shipped right to your door ...
Edit:
Larry, do you want to pick who gets my brass Sensi? I suppose it might not have the sex appeal of a BB, but still, it's a great drum in great shape, so it really should go to someone deserving that can make good use it.
Plus, as Smoke kindly reminded me, this is your show, Larry ...

Well I just got word that I'm receiving the LM 303. I'm really excited. I don't have much of a story to justify winning, but I'm glad I did. I didn't really expect to. When I realized that I did win (Larry had to point that out to me) I kept saying out loud "wow I can't believe it, wow" and I was laughing also, extremely happy. Larry is extremely cool to do this give away. I've mailed old Yamaha catalogues to a forum member for free before, but this is way beyond that. So to the two of you, thank you so very much. I'll give the drum a good home. I may have to make up a little snare video and put it up. I don't know good it'll be because I usually don't play snare passages, but I think one is in order. We'll see.
Great to see all the generosity in this thread. Well done to Larry and all the other kind souls. Much respect to you all.
Also congrats to the winners!!
Great stuff.
I think all of us ought to post videos of our new treasures. The generosity, after a day at work, is still just blowing my mind. I hope you don't get sick of hearing thank yous on this thread!
Just an FYI, I plan on shipping 4 snares on Wednesday 12/7.
The Luds will go out next Monday 12/12, I have to arrange a bass drum case.
Thanks to everyone for all of your patience.
