I didn't get a chance to look into the other guys' books, but as mine was personalized, I know that theirs were as well, and that a lot of work and coordination went into each.

Many thanks to Vikki, Bart, Linda (nice Scrabble page!), Fred, Alison, Nancy (yes I remember you in Glenside!), Kristine, Lisa, Terri, Greg, Kaffy, Jeannine, Vensel, Tonya and Aron (who made some very complimentary cover art for each book!) And of course Elvis for tallying everything!

You guys are great!

Awesome! You guys are so very welcome! :D

Wow, Vikki, those wine bottles are amazing! I hope you get a chance to give them to Al and TBitB soon!

And thanks for posting the pics, sg. I think the one of you and Al is very sweet. Your husband's right--it's a very good picture of you!

Thanks, Ambra, me too!

And ditto, Linda- That's a great shot of you with Al! Also, the introductory letter you wrote was great! :lol:

I guess I'll shall also have to offer my congatulations here. So, congrats! You guys are the best. :peace:

The timing wasn't so good for me to put anything together. I wish I had, though. Blah. I hadn't even considered just mailing in a couple items and having someone else paste them in... Ah well.

I believe it was a sweet gesture by all involved.

Anyway that is awesome! I can only echo the praise that everyone is giving. I wonder how many other bands can say they've performed 1000 shows of that caliber?

Wow, great work everyone and congratulations Al, Jon, Steve, Jim and Rubén! I wish I had known about this, but I doubt I could have made anything as nice as what all of you did. :D
Wishing you a Twisted Christmas and a Twisted New Year!
