Hey Everybody,

Back home now and the European tour went amazingly well!  I wanted to say thanks to all my fans across Europe for making it one of the biggest and best tours I've ever done!!

The album is officially out now and I'm spending this week gearing up for a massive US tour... THANKS AGAIN so much to each and every one of you for deciding to take a chance on helping me make this album!  I'm still feeling incredibly satisfied with how everything tuned out and I hope you guys are feeling the same.  Chances are I'm probably coming to a town near you soon - so I hope you can all make it out to a show!!

See you soon,
Rocky
Xx

US TOUR POSTER - AVAILABLE AT THE SHOWS:

Hey There!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year...and I hope everyone got the cards I sent out!  It's snowing like crazy here in Seattle so I'm glad I'm working from home right now...my back yard looks like I'm in Montana.  I wanted to give you guys a quick update on how everything's coming along.  I'm still writing lyric sheets and think I will cross the 100th sheet mark tonight!!

It's a full time job we've created for me here and I'm very grateful to all of you for helping me make it happen.  So excited for you guys to see the layout design and hear these new songs!!  A very large shipment of CDs and Vinyl is on its way to my house as we speak so I can get started on signing them all for you...that is if my hand still works after writing out all these lyrics!:-)  Attached a photo below so you can see how they're coming out.  I'm also just about to get started on 23 exclusive home recordings... Wish me luck!

We will be announcing the OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE for the album very soon, as well as the fist set of U.S. TOUR DATES, so keep an eye out for that.  I'll keep you guys posted on how all of this is going and thanks again for all of your support!!!!

712 backers raising over $38,000.  So incredible!  I cannot thank you enough for the outpouring of support.

Right now we're putting the final touches on the album's release.  We'll be in touch early next year about sending you your copy along with the other rewards you signed up for.  The estimated delivery date is March 2012. 

As always, I couldn't do this without your support and encouragement.  Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and yours!

Much Love,
Rocky
