You have all blessed me and contributed to the joys and triumphs of my musical journey.  May I do my best to honor and serve you in the future.

Thank you for buying this album.  I now want to petition for your help with a few things. 

‘The Man’

Turns out I am ‘The Man’ with this project and there isn’t a callous, several thousand person deep corporation behind me aside from Matt Worthington, and he probably would only count as 3.75 people on a good day.  I am 8 years plus into this record and have personally dropped a five figure sum financially into it.  Music is how try to pay the bills.  Avoid coping it if you will, Matt said ‘it’s illegal!’

‘My Next Record’

If you feel inclined to contribute to my next project which is currently slated for 2013, a date I am convinced is far enough out there that it should prevent people from asking the ever so daunting question “Is the CD finished yet?”, Please go to the ‘Contact Us’ page at www.knoxonline.com and submit your query. We are planning on writing peoples names on bricks with a sharpie at Bellevue Square. 

‘You’re Hired!’

I now consider you my sales force.  I wrote these songs with strong melodies so they would get under your skin and stuck in your head.  I passionately hope you desire to share my music with others and I humbly ask and encourage you to do it, by an honest means.  Discs can be purchased at www.knoxonline.com.

'Involvement’

I welcome communication especially if you want to book us as the opening act for U2 in New York City.  Other subjects are good too, often just not as good. Always love to hear from people.  Try online at www.knoxonline.com Warning! I have been known to go missing for weeks at time.

‘Relationships’

I have no plans to be a rock star.   You are the most beloved part of pursuing this.  I hope beyond this record, on a person by person basis we can dance, sing, laugh, love and encourage each other in a healthy manner. You are the real wealth.

Thank you at least 26 times. 

Knox
