making sweet sacrifice

[SnowWhite]

HI everybody. There have been some false claims in a few articles I've seen recently, and I just want to set things straight.

Making a record takes a lot of hard work, and a lot of heart. When Terry and I found out that Sweet Sacrifice was nominated for "best hard rock performance," we were giddy with excitement to see something we'd created fly so high. You all know that Terry suffered a stroke right after tracking the guitars for The Open Door, and how much strength he's had to have to overcome the effects its had on his performance. This is part of the reason the nomination was so touching to us. This award is for those who performed on the track, and I want to give credit where credit is due. Terry composed and performed ALL of the guitars on this song, Will played bass, Rocky played drums, and I sang vocals. Wind-up records made an error when they listed the performers on the album back in 2006, and now that error is being taken advantage of. You are the fans, you deserve to know who you're listening to, and Terry deserves full recognition for his performance.

I love you guys and I miss you! I've been snowboarding all week in Colorado with some friends, including David Hodges and his wife, Kate. omfg! Hahahaha. It's been a lot of fun and I'm very grateful to have them as friends. If I'm limping at the Grammy's, don't worry- I haven't broken any bones, my butt's just really sore. See you soon!
love,
amy

z0mgah teh Ames is on. lol. Good to see you here Amy.

Colorado!? Hey while you're there throw together a show for those Denver people who didn't get to see you. haha.

I know how snowboarding is, I think I walked funny for a week from falling so much. I pretty much stayed on the bunny hills all day. I'm daring what can I say?

Hope all stays well! Good luck at the Grammys!

Thanks so much for that, and it's real cool knowing you and David are still friends after all these years . Can't wait to see what you'll wear at the Grammys .

Just my luck, as soon as SnowWhite signs in I have to go to school. *sigh*

Bye Amy, stay well .

We've got more snow than Colorado right now. I can't tell where the yard ends and the street begins, it's all covered in a foot of snow.

Thanks for clearing that up! I appreciate it, and I'm sure many of us here do.

It's ironic that my Ipod is on shuffle and Taking Over Me is on--hehe. one of my favorites from Fallen.
I wish you all good luck at the Grammys! Here's hoping you can make that a 2nd time win in the Best Hard Rock Performance category :-)
My vacation from work starts on Grammy night, so you can bet I'll be watching!
Have fun on your time off-hope you and yours is doing well!
