Yeah my order is scheduled to ship October 19, which means it reaches me on November 3rd-10th out here in Australia.

Can't wait to see the Tab book though. I hope it's one of the better quality ones that has all of the little fill parts and stuff.

I was listening to the album the other day and thinking how it would be hard to tab out this stuff. Like think about Chinese Democracy the song..there's all that noodling bucket solo underneath the lyrics in the second half....and there's lots of stuff like that on the album....a lot of different parts.....

Draft proposals for significant changes for the awards in 2011 and going forward were also announced. In the future, submissions delivered electronically will also be admissible, plus classical and popular music will be judged together resulting in a reduction to eight award categories: electronic media, choral, piano, guitar, piano/vocal, full score, full score with parts, and chamber music.

Also, the recent death of John Forbes was acknowledged during the awards ceremony. Forbes served as a music editor for Boosey and Hawkes for several decades and was responsible for the engraving of many published scored including Stephen Hatfield's Flying Colours, which received the top prize in the Octavo Sheet Music category.

Submissions for the 2010 Paul Revere Awards were reviewed by a jury of four judges, two to judge engraving, one to judge utility, and the fourth to judge design. Each judge gives a score from 1 to 5 based on their specific adjudicatory domain and then each submission's score is totaled from 1 to 20. Winners are chosen from scores with the highest points. The 2010 judges were: Maria Reidelbach, who served as the design judge; composer George Boziwick of the New York Public Library, who served as the utility judge; and composers Bruce Taub, former head of publishing for C.F. Peters and the editor of the SCI Journal of Music Scores, and Hayes Biggs, who teaches theory at the Manhattan School of Music, served as the engraving judges.

Last year, an exhibit of the 2009 Paul Revere Award-winning scores toured to nine libraries across the United States.
