Very Cool!! Look fwd to hearing your thoughts when the cd comes out John

Wow, that Ratt one is great news. I thought they were done. Awesome. I hate to say it of Reece, but I hope he doesn't turn Tango Down into a band as average as everything he's been on recently. They're a really good band and I LOVED that last CD. Would hate to hear them averaged down. Hey Geoff!! I respect your feelings, and appreciate the kind words. David is a a MONSTER vocalist and we were all very happy to have him jump on board. Each of us for our own reasons. Rif, being a ACCEPT fan. While i was a Big Bangalore Choir fan. (FYI...I love Eat the Heat as well though! ) This album has my personal stamp of approval. I was very meticulous in the choosing of material that made the final cut. We(Band/Label)set the bar high as if this was the bands first release, and to some extent it was/is. I feel that we surpassed the goal we set for ourselves. Rif wrote some of his best stuff to date, and im not just saying that. Jace Pawlak also helped penn a few tunes with Rif on this cd.So , if you enjoyed songs like STEP BY STEP, CAN'T WAIT and I'M DONE LOVING YOU. Then i promise you will love this cd. It's as if we took the best of Damage Control, the best of Eat The Heat and Bangalore and put it all in a blender and pushed the button. This album was built on everyones strengths. We made sure to settle for nothing short of great. I respect your honesty and you have always been a surporter of my releases and bands. So im giving you the KIVEL challenge! ;-) pre order the cd, and IF you truly dont like it. I will not question you at all. What i will do is this. You can keep the TANGO DOWN cd and i will on top of that send you any other kivel title of your choice at no charge. No strings attached! John Haha. Thanks John, sounds good. I will probably pre-order that one asap... especially with that endoresement! Sounds like a brilliant disc, as I absolutely love all 3 discs mentioned in this cocktail mix. No problem Geoff!! I wouldnt steer you wrong. Id rather you not buy one of my releases if i knew you wouldn't like it. Im pretty confident that you will like this cd! Hence my offer to put my $$ where my mouth is. Thanks! John

GT put out a new disc last year Why did you not phone me immediately upon release and tell me about this? Seriously, did I miss this one? Hello Tim Odd you missed this tid bit on the GBT disc. We released KEEPSAKES which was a cd of unreleased songs, remixes etc. Which also comes with a 1 hour dvd of the band in the studio, live and more. So cd and dvd for $12. Thrill also released a full length studio album OUTRAGEOUS Shortly after that. If you pre order the CHASING MAGIC and get the two Thrill discs with your pre order, you will get one of the titles half price automatic on our order page. Not a bad deal. Marco also recently released a FERREIRA cd which you can find on itunes. Hope all of this helped! JK Thanks John, I pre-ordered the Chasing Magic and picked-up a couple of others. Can't believe I missed the Goodbye Thrill disc, the first was a monster. Hey Tim! How are you digging the CHASING MAGIC and the GOODBYE THRILL stuff? JK

You and me both Wes. That new FarCry shirt looks friggin' cool as hell! Looking forward to these showing up in the mail any day now. Where can I see the shirt? I'm not finding anything on the site. Where is the shirt you speak of?? I need one! Is it the Optimism cover? John had it on his FB page. I bought the black one. I'm not sure if this pic will show up but this is the one John posted on fb. I bought the white one, it's got the cities listed on the back including Sioux Falls. Kickass shirt! Glad you dig the Swag Rick! Now you need to post a pic of you sporting it for us.
