Yup, I think that sums it up pretty well. I'm really looking forward to this.
Congratulations!

Posted by: Wes at June 3, 2005 11:39 AMThis book publishing sure takes a long time. I don't understand why it's going to take a little less than a year from now to get this in stores.
I wrote a book, but since it takes so long to publish, I think I'll just self publish it and sell it on Lulu. I'm so DIY (and punk).

Oh, wait, maybe you actually were honoring the 25th anniversary of the wedding of Eddie Van Halen to Valeri Bertinelli.
Either way, congratulations, it'll be neat to see it out.

Congrats, Dr. F.
Man, that is a while, but it's alright. I'm really looking foreward to it. You should sell it at shows when it comes out to make it a concert/book signing for fans. It's a great marketing stragety if I do say so myself.
Posted by: Tom at June 4, 2005 02:58 AMCool. I'll put it on my calendar, but you should feel free to issue a reminder next March!
