Influences: We would like to give SPECIAL THANKS to those who have helped us in this endeavor. Our Quality Engineer and Studio Musician Duffy (DRUMS AND HIS FABULOUS EARS), Kris Hadlock (HADLOCK BAND) for his tremendous support and musicianship, including (backup guitar, vocals, drums and toys and occasionally a 12 pack of Labats) Ron Brock (Studio Musician Bass Guitar), Richie Roccisano for his PRO TOOLS Engineering, Design, (backing guitars, 12 strings, vocals, bass, drums, keys and toys) and Chris Kempf for his electronic help with our 6 station, multimix headphone setup. Special Thanks to our relatives in Australia for their "Brotherhood" and those other Roccisano's scattered throughout the globe for their help and guidance in this endeavor. Throughout this undertaking we've received great help from local musicians and friends. LASTLY, we are in the process of offering video taping of the recording sessions to give us the ability to produce a DVD for the bands and artists recording at our facility. Lastly, according to our latest data, we would want to warn people of the world of the perils faced with the uprising of the SEAGULLS population that is a SERIOUS THREAT to not only our NATIONAL SECURITY, but to the security of the entire human race. Thanks, Richard
