Thanks Again....

I'm sure I still have copies of the newsletters in the archives somewhere but it would involve me having to transcribe them and I'm waaaaaay too lazy for that. I think there might be some fan sites that have posted some of the Force newsletter interviews.
Would you mind if we post some of the ones we have? I have a box full! LOL! But I have hesitated, due to not wanting to infringe on you guys any. So would it be O.K? Lora you had some great interviews!

No worries. Post away (if Andrew is good with that).

Thanks Lora! You guys did such a good job on them!

Well, now to ask the big wombat..............Andrew?

Fuck his new album and the 20+ years of bullshit that he put rational fans of the old rocking Journey through. This dude ruined Journey....period.

i thought you liked the current journey. now you're saying they're ruined?

Maybe he finally came to his senses.

Maybe, but at least he's right about something for a change. :lol:

It is a bit large, but I wanted you to see what the first page looks like, I have to scan half of it, scan the other half, sandwich them together and reduce them.............GI, stop being Mr. Smarty Pants, Birthday or no Birthday! :wink:

OOps this should have been after page 1 :oops:

Thank you for posting this........ I'm really looking forward to reading the others you have............

Did you notice that Steve likes to play venues where "people can reach out and touch and see" i.e. intimate venues where he can connect with the people he is singing for.
OMG, I want to be one of those people. :wink:

Page 3 Some of these will not sandwich together perfectly, but most of the pics that got cut off are ones most people are familiar with. Just want to show how Lora and Cyndy put the newsletters together.

I'm just wondering if Lora and Cyndy took all of these photographs for the newsletter? What a fun job to interview these guys, take the photographs
and write to all the fans. I'm certainly looking forward to the next bedtime story, maybe if we are all good we might get another one tonight...

by **artist4perry** » Sat Jun 13, 2009 12:30 pm

This page was a bit choppy. I cannot scan the next one, it has addresses of force members and names........so I will withhold that. Then a page for ordering cool stuff.........................

For the sake of the loons I will not reduce this one in size.........................SPIN Newsletter........

Lora and Cyndy, you two have always done such a beautiful job with the newsletters. They were something to look forward to, and were so great we cherrished them. Look at me, 46 years old and still treasure them in a box. Why? Because they were such wonderful memories. You helped make such wonderful memories for the JF fans.

You guys went above and beyond what was called for in your work. Excellence was always par for the course for you two. I want to just say thanks again, from someone who appreciates all you did.

You helped me all the time! LOL! Lora between the calls and notes, you helped me countless times in the day. I just regret loosing touch with you two all those years. My life kind of went south on me, and I lost ties with a lot of great folks. I have found a few here!

And I enjoy getting back aquainted with them again. Mistijourney, E.Price, and a few others...........Those where great times, and you made them even better. Thanks again ~ Ginger
