DIARY

March 06, 2006
Rest for the Wicked!

.....I did take it a bit to far when I hung upside down from the balcony in Minnesota but I want ya to know tha Ted had his arms wrapped around my feet so I wouldn't fall to certain death. This proves beyond a string of doubt that Ted is the greatest tour manager on the planet. Yea, he may be downright mean at times, he may bust up the party and make everyone get off the green machine, he may yell at you for taking pictures, but he is the best in the business and we are lucky to have him. I was so psyched to have Randy and Dan tech-ing for us. These guys have been with us for years and quit their stable jobs to help us in our quest to conquer the world. They are pro's and more than just the music they are the best to hang out with. I had a blast just being around those guys. Sound Engineer Brian Anderson had many other offers from other bands to go out on the road. He listened to our cd, liked it, and decided to take a chance on us. He has an unbelievable ear and we never sounded better. We all got the chance to know him and he is now a huge part of our sound. You know all the cool echo and delay parts in the vocals that make me sound cool.. That is Brian being ultra creative. He is super talented. Sean our bus driver kept us alive through about 10 blizzards and always got us there on time. He would also conversate with you if you couldn't sleep and wanted to hang out in the front and watch the miles speed by. Sean has seen it all and has tons of great stories. The great thing about him is that he is not afraid to share them. Even the really crazy ones! And who can forget Jeremy Carson! He belonged on stage every night for every song. His energy is conagious. We got him on board to sell merchandise but that was just a way to sneak him on tour and make a little cash so we could bring him on-stage to play Tunnel and This Town. That kid can really "Tear Em Up", he's pretty bad ass. Jeremy is going on to play bass on another tour in the summer and we will hook back up in the fall.....

After reading Marty's Diary Post, I also wanted to thank
these terrific guys for helping make the Tour a success.

Thanks to Ted for even though you may have ruffled some feathers, you made sure the guys all came home safely. Sometimes the fans forget that all that the band really owes us is a good performance.

Thanks to Randy, Dan, Brian and Jeremy who helped make the concerts an unbelievable experience for us all.

Thanks Sean for making sure that the bus got where it needed to go and safely. With 10 blizzards it could not have been an easy job.

Thanks guys!

I echo that and would like to add a shout out to all the Hammerheads who helped organize street teaming, parties, band events and tickets for out-of-towners. And big hugs and kisses to all those Caseys in Chicago -- (especially Jen) you were generous beyond the call of duty!


THANK YOU!!!!!!

Yes, I agree. I am so grateful to everyone mentioned for helping the Lovehammers pull off an amazing tour.

Let's not forget to thank the white pants.....

Ted's heart must skip several beats whenever Marty starts climbing around. I'm grateful that he is so protective ...

[RayneDove]

Yes to all of the above. We fans can rest assured our boys are in good hands with such great friends and supporters as these. As a fan who cares about the safety and happiness of Lovehammers, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your hard work
Keep spreading the Love

:)These guys are truely what makes the tours happen!

Thanks so much for all their hardwork!

And for all the conversation!

[radioclash]

Thank you so much to everyone who worked so hard for and with the band! You have my deepest gratitude

Randy is the one who I actually noticed at the Atlanta show. He was at the opposite end of the M&G line from Ted and he actually thanked me after I was done. It really blew me away because I was already floating on Cloud 9 after going through the line.

I'm glad the boys are in such good hands Thank you so much for all your hard work and all that you do for them, they couldn't have asked for anyone better

[oceancat46]

As someone who stage manages for community theater, I know about being the one behind the scenes that holds things together, often with little or no recognition - you all do a Great Job supporting this Amazing Band that We All Love!!

(and Kudos to Marty for taking the time to thank all of you and remind us how important you are to the success of Lovehammers!!)
