10th Umali Awards

The 10th Annual Umali Awards, celebrating the Year 2010, took place on May 21, 2011 at the Green Gallery West in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

This was the smoothest show ever. No stress.

Travis Hale and Molly Lefeber photographed the event.

Sarah Burgundy acquired 322 DIWITTYs in 2010, smashing the the previous record of 300 DIWITTYs held by Sarah Buccheri (2007). In so doing, she also set the mark for widest margin of victory. While last year saw the slimmest margin of victory in her maiden victory (8 DIWITTYs), this year saw her with a 152 margin. Both victories were over Frank Straka. She accomplished this even though we still do not live in the same city!

The Top 10 featured four newcomers: Nena Machi, David Cobbins, Lauren McCray, and Patrick Hopkins. Hopkin's 94 is the highest from a Brass Bell Music Store employee.
