Got a letter from OLP
It came the day before yesterday. It said thanks for submitting a video/audio tape in the guitarist search, lot of good creative musicians out there, etc. It was signed by Raine, Duncan, and Jer. At first I thought it was probably just copied but I looked on the back and I could see the ink bleeding through on their signatures. I thought that was pretty cool. Anyone else get their thank you letter?

No, I didn't get one
Suppose it's because I didn't send in a demo. I really do want one though.

"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

They make their signatures such a bitch to read for obvious reasons. If it was easy to read, then it would be easy to write, and ebay would be loaded with fake OLP autographs.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
Yeah I finally managed to get Raine's autograph last Thursday and it's just a big scribble

I love his signature....it's classic, but Pookie's is the best!

no, they are illegible because they literally sign thousands of things like that. Any effort to make it legible would be a waste of time.

Well you have to figure that the whole counterfitting has to be involved too. I mean, people do that shit and exploit people, and if it's a bitch to write, then it's easier to spot the fakes.

Su7an: I bet Duncan can fly. He's just holding out on showing that skill off.
joe_canadian: Yeah, one day at a concert he'll just stop playing and be like
"Yo muthafuckas! Wheeeeee!" and zoom off into the horizon
