My heartfelt thanks go out to so many people that I can’t mention them all, but there are a few who were in and around this project that I would like to give a special thanks to:
My best bud and Answer Infinity band-mate, A.J. His opinions and producer-minded input are just the beginning of the value he has brought to the music contained herein.
My other band-mates, Jason, Greg, and Daniel who put up with my noise more than anyone should.
Justin “Hustle” Caprio & Pete Connors for great performances, jammings, and valuable
opinions.
My parents and sis for always giving me the support that shaped a positive mind. Is there any greater gift one can give a child?
So many good friends who have listened and been there for the gigs, big and small... Roughly in the order I met them: Tom R, Dave C, Gerry, Matty D, Cali Greg, Dave S, China, Dawn, Debbie, Tim, Jeff, Roger, Christine M, Josh, Steve, Trayce, Kaytee, Static, Pete, Tom H, Christine G, Ally G, Lexi G, Jon L, ‘Rabbi’ Brett, Michael C, Kimberly Ann, AFA, Rob, Gina.
To all the people who support me and say kind words on social media, especially Instagram.
And of course, to the single coolest guy I know, my son, Kyle.
