Don't fear the Gingerman !

I always loved the CDs. And well, even if it 2011, I'm not a big fan of MP3 (even if I have a lot of tracks in my iTunes).

One of the reason of this loving relationship is that I love reading the booklet, reading the texts, looking at the pictures. Everytime I was reading it I was wondering how it was to have your name written in it.

The postman gave me an envelope this morning (well, no, he left it in the mailbox because I was at work !)

Mum left it on my desk.

When I came back home and turned the lights on, I saw the envelope... Just seeing it, I was pretty sure of what it was ! I saw the stamp and recognized the handwritting... Wow.

...

My own copy of A Joker's Rage first album ! 

Thank you Maggie. 

And a sweet note, as usual !

I opened the CD, and read the last page of the booklet : 

This album was recorded over a two week period at Soundworks, Leeds, May 2010.

Wow, my name ! ...

I put out the CDs and found the Thank yous :

Thanx :

Daz, you're a Music Marine, thank you for believing in us.

Will Jackson and Paul Brown for sharing our vision and helping us build a monster.

Pivo Pivo in Glasgow for giving us our start.

Elodie + Flore - our dedicated wonder women team in France ! ...

Wow, my name, again...

I am so proud of them ! Even if sometimes I loose my nerves because of them !

They are working on an acoustic E.P, and I don't know why, I'm pretty sure it's gonna be awesome ! I need to answer to Maggie's letter tomorrow !!

I love my boys ! I do !

I don't have news from Neil. I just hope that he won't say he has a problem with me, because, if he says that, that mean that it will become impossible for me to work with them. And, honestly, I'm not ready to leave them...

Now, time to eat, and sleep ! I'm tired, but I'm happy ! Today was a great day... Hope tomorrow will be too !

xx

PS : I finally create a Twitter account... well ... let's see if I keep it or not !
2nd PS : of course, the CD is protected by copyrights, so please, if you want to know the secret of the booklet... buy the CD !
3rd PS : Gingerman is another quickname of Maggie-Steven. And "Fear the Gingerman" is HIS sentence... He's not scary at all ! Crazy, but not scary !
