Hi there !

Never felt the urge to comment on your "musings", but as the deadline draws near, it's time for some final encouragements.

Hope this book'll finally hit my bookshelf, and many, many others !

Thanks for the dedication, and for the love you show for what is, for quite some time now, my favourite band. They deserved this, and I believe you did it the right way : with patience, passion and determination.

Good luck for the last steps, and as the Man says : "Keep your head up"!

Later,

Val

Really good to hear you're making solid progress once again, Rich.

If I buy a copy of the book, will you buy me a beer?
