seattlesteve Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Got mine yesterday way out here in Seattle. Looks awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sally G Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Oh boy oh boy oh boy....!!! Got mine too!Luv the gorgeous box which contains the outrageously gorgeous book with the gorgeous photos of the gorgeous talented artists and technicians, plus every single delectable goodie!I've been enjoying reading this thread, especially the guitar string comments! When I told Tom that I'd let him touch my Eric Carmen guitar string, he asked if he could put it on his guitar and I said *no*!!! No hesitation at all, immediate reaction! He was just joking but it was really funny anyway...I actually had a tough time deciding whether to request an Eric or Wally guitar string. But then I figured since Wally gave Tom guitar picks at BB King's, it'd make sense to request Eric's guitar string so that we'd have personal items from each.Thanks so much to Bernie, Ken, Gene, Kathy, The Raspberries, The Overdubs, the crew, Al and Denise for bringing to all of us so tirelessly lots of joy and love and goodies and GREAT MUSIC.All The Best,Joyce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Sister Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Tony, I think it will be a race between us, you see I haven't gotten mine yet either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I ordered mine a bit late and without all the goodies, so I don't deserve it in the first wave anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smittie Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 To all those who await the arrival of their book:(which includes me too!) Just arrived home from my job at the post office. I work at one of the plants that processes mail and packages. As you can imagine, we are in the midst of our busiest time of the year. Things are running smoothly and we are doing our darndest to keep the mail rolling along. I jokingly asked a package employee if they would keep an eye out for my package/book and set it aside for me when they find it! Was a bit tempted to root through one of the hundreds of hampers to find my treasure. Have patience, we will come through for you soon! And don't forget that the price of a 1st class will be 39 cents starting Jan. 8.! Till then, keep those cards and letters comin'. And to Bernie and Kathy, Thanks for entrusting your shipping needs to the US Postal service! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Tony--I'm still waiting also, and I ordered early and got the deluxe version, so don't feel bad. I think we're being punished for our little scheme to keep the downloads coming --Kirk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnO Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I received it and read it all last night. Great job, guys!!!...both on the book and the cool extras. It's a great package (and I mean that in a wholesome, family value-oriented, and hetero way)!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sterling Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Hey everyone,I am glad to hear that the book is really exciting and a great read! Thanks Bernie, Ken and Gene for all your efforts! Thanks to Kathy for all your shipping efforts. I have just one question for all the midwest people who did not get the Super Package. I live in Illinois and have not seen the book yet. I just ordered the book so maybe that is the problem, that the books only were mailed Wed or Thurs. I hope its not stuck in a snowbank in Jersey City or Trenton! Just kidding. But, hey any of you other midwesterners receive the book only yet!Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricH Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Just received mine last night. Worth every penny I paid! What a fantastic piece of memorabilia to go with the great memories and great music. Just like the Marathon Man biography, top quality work. Thank you, Bernie. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Kirk Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Sentence is suspended, Raspberries TONIGHT has set me free! Is this a great country, or what? Where else can you get a first class tour book on your favorite band, free downloads, and all those extra goodies!?! Thanks to Bernie, Ken, Gene, and all the other contributors Kirk. p.s.- Tony, use your "Get Out Of Jail Free" card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
