SO HERE'S THE DEAL

"I'm filled to burstin' with pride," proclaims Big Deal Music chief Kenny MacPherson, in full finery as he and his team celebrated a great night at the BMI Pop Awards. "But I cannae understand why the resta you did'na wear your tartans." Seen just before sitting down to a yummy plate of haggis (paired with a lively Beaujolais) are (l-r) Family Affair Productions' Peter Bunetta, BMI's Barbara Cane, Kenny, Danny Parker, Teddy Geiger, Mega House Music's Jeremy Levin, Casey Robison and Mega House's David Silberstein and Greg Golterman.

Among Big Deal's wins at the event: Song of the Year for "Stitches" by Shawn Mendes (Geiger, Parker and D.J. Kyriakides); as well as wins for two One Direction songs co-penned by John Ryan, Rachel Platten's "Stand by You" (Matt Morris) and Mendes' "Treat You Better" (also co-written by Geiger).
