# Posting while you all sleep or whatnot...
There's this great rockabilly/blues band I follow and in a fit of artistic love, I drew each of the members and posted their 'portraits' to their Bookface page by way of 'thanks for the music'.



I was totally floored when they contacted me and asked if they could send me out some merchandise in thanks and did they have permission to use my artwork on their homepage, Bookface page and in the booklet for their next album which is being recorded as we speak? After I stopped hyperventilating in excitement, I gave them my blessings to do what they wanted with it. Needless to say, I'm still on cloud nine. Just had to share.

Edit: Thank you, beautiful b3tans all :)

# hes been in loads
darren lince is his name, the sugar creek trio, jack rabbit slim, and recently the space cadets, its all new to me, never heard him play though, whenever we meet all we do is get pissed and talk about hotrods and scooters.

# Well, I've heard of Jack Rabbit Slim so WOOT!
Doesn't matter, that's what mates do and talking about hot rods and bobbers and scooters is damn great at any time!

# I'm still reeling actually
Never expected anything more than "Hey, thanks!" from them, so it was a real moment of gratitude overload. Thanks too!
