Mobius Thanks: A.L. for making this tape possible and struggling with our budgetary constraints - it's remarkable what one can do with a 4-track;
Nate "X" for starting the whole thing and giving us vision of what could be - best wishes and good luck in all future endeavors - also for putting up with some ribbing;
Christine and all the staff at The Continental in Buffalo for believing in us when no one else would;
Scott, The Prophet - looking forward to our next album;
Aaron for continuing efforts; Stompbox - the show was cool;
Artvoice, Extreme, and Smash for show listings and pix.

W Thanks: The Prophet, Patti Anne, Brian, Dred X, Jason, Shane, J. Slick, Myron X, Mom, Dad, Bruce, Christine, Stone Kold Cheez, Dan, Steve, Lisa, Brutus, and the rest of my family, Child of Pride, Nurse Brown, Joe and Kindergarden, all the other cool bands we've played with, all the cool bands we have not played with, the head-banging guy, all the fine young (and old) ladies and gentlemen who grace us with your presence at our shows, those who were kind enough to endure all of our noise, all the other people that I somehow forgot to mention, Jesus, Buddha, and Satan (for just being evil).

Ira Thanks: My entire family: Mom and Dad, Robin, Shari, Beth, Mike, Emma, and Stephen; Chet for "saving the day" and reinvigorating us; Al's self-sacrifice for "da' boyz"; Jeff, Gene, Ben, and Sissy for continued friendship and support - especially being there when I needed them most; Mike R. and Mike L. for being great fans; Adriana and Sharon for their love and support (except for the part about driving me crazy) - I miss you; Q.O.F. - it was fun for awhile - your loss - don't blame me, Chet wrote it; Helmet for "Rude"; Biohazard - enjoy Vol. I; Paul and Buffalo Drum Outlet; EAS140 - Tony, Linda, Tom, Todd, and my students; all my housemates; and everyone else, especially those who bought a tape ;-)

JC Thanks: My dad for being an all-around great guy and buying the first obligatory guitar; my father for putting up with my bitch of a mother long enough to knock her up;  Dave and Dave for ignoring the hype and inviting me on board; Doug Bless for being a creative outlet in the Good Old Days TM; Tim & Craig Sutton for all the years, times, pizza, and Pepsi; Beth Malouf for the way-out-there in the way-back-when ...
