The band wishes to thank: The Townsend brothers for their incredible
support and faithfulness. The great and ever vigilant Tom G. whose encouragement,
friendshipm undying devotion and hard work over the long years continues to be
invaluable to us. Chris Colbert who had to fill some pretty large shoes, and
did so beyond our expectations, with both aplomb and grace. Anna Cardenas for
being not only patient with usm but sacrificial and generous as well. We love
you. Dan Michaels for his enthusiasm and support. Frank Lenz for his worthy
input, and especially for his two good legs! Dennis Grimaud for the video.
Pete Jacobs for the keyboards. Mike MacLane for the "Ringo" drum kit.
Terry thanks: My incredible band mates: Greg (a rocket scientist,
literally), a scholar and a gentleman, who I believe can play just about
any instrument, and who happens to play guitar like nobody else. Tim
(in my humble opinion the greatest Rock n' Roll bass player on the face of
the earth) who explored "Bass World" on this project with passion and precision.
It shouldn't work, but it does.) Ed (My faithful, underrated, stalwart
and brilliant drummer and friend for 24 years). Nobody does it better. Deb,
Noelle, and Andrew (my biggest fans.) My incredible family,
precious friends and faithful fans (your love has pulled me
through the strangest year of my life) To Andy Obrastoff in Seattle
(sleep my corageous silent child... upward and onward into the hands of Jesus.)
The "Late Great" Gene Eugene, who is missed sorely. Above all I thank
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for keeping all of us under The Mercy.
Tim Chandler would like to thank (with no speculation about the order,
in no order at all:) m.f.c., doc, Charlie, Everyone who's ever been a member of
da, everyone I've ever met, nate fenderson, terry, don montes, derri, wes
leathers, greg, ed, mike pedraza, gene, steve, tom willet, dan, john schriener,
fernando, charles bukowski, tom howard, butt hole surfers, gene, father gary
london, my mom, choirboys, gene, chris colbert, t.w., uncle art, james ellroy,
replacements, f.f., raindogs, henry chinaski, jason h. from ft wayne, and
k.r. - and, still: never mind the bollocks, extra special thanks to chris
colbert, to whose knowledge, possession, and lending of many effects and foot
pedal/stomp boxes, i clearly owe much credit (or blame) for the racket i was
allowed to make on this here recording. along those lines, i would hearby like
to thank the effects and pedals, individually, and personally -- thanks to:
distortion #1, the alter-nado, line 6, rat, turbo rat, that korg thing with the
inter-changeable modules, and all the rest that i can't think of right now.
Greg thanks: Dennis Grimaud, Frank Lopez and Jeff Yox for 20 years of being
there, Frederick P. Flesch (1916-1993) who gave me a love for music and learning.
Veronica, Alison and most of all Karlyn Flesch for years of love, encouragement
and understanding. We made it!
Ed thanks: My family and friends for all
their support through the years... My 2 new grandsons, D.J. and Alexander for
bringing new joy to my life. Terry, Tim and Greg for writing songs that always
challenge me musically and spiritually (let's do it again!), Kristy for her love
and encouragement and for helping me find myself. And to all of our fans, I hope
you have as much fun listening to these songs as we did recording them...
