In behalf of the band, I’d like to say thanks to everyone who voted for us, for believing in us and what we do. This is something so unexpected and something we never thought of achieving this soon in our lives, and that makes us all the more grateful.

We’d like to thank first and foremost, our manager, Toti – for pursuing this field with us, his wife, Rica and their all-too-adorable kids. We’d also like to thank the people behind every gig and every song we’ve had to perform, Sherwin and the rest of the gang of roadies + Gani. The Dharmalites – who we’ve learned to love, some have become real friends of ours. Chigo, Mayee, Ed, Zobel among others — those who keep in touch via social networking and those who take the time to watch gigs even with their children like Arvi and Marmi Perez. Thank you to the publications and magazines who never tire to feature our band and writers who help give us a good name. Thank you to TL and the rest of Puma for the unwavering support, our friends for understanding our crazy schedules, our parents for respecting our decisions. I bet waiting for us to come home at 4am has now paid its price. Special thanks to the Keith Tan and family, Ces Guerrero and family, Erving Go and family, to the readers of this blog for the reposts and the trackbacks. Congratulations to The Charmes as well! Thank you to our label mates, Sleepwalk Circus, Musical O, Ang Bandang Shirley, Radioactive Sago Project, Paramita, Swissy, Juan Pablo Dream for being an extension of what we want to achieve, who love what they do just as much as we do. Our thanks to Paul Buchanan and the rest of The Blue Nile for being an inspiration in creating this album and for maintaining an unbeatable standard in producing good music. We’ve learned that it does not matter even if it takes years to come up with a project for as long as the product is worth listening to. Most of all thank you to NU 107 and its panel of judges – though we have no idea who you are, I’ll be sure to thank you once I figure it out

I suppose after every thing that has happened, there is always something more we can do to repair and make good use of what we have left. Cheers to 2010 and the years to come. We’ve lost a lot of good people this year, but we hope to keep our spirits high with you all. I’m certain that there’s always tomorrow on days whose nights fail you.
