I’ve got to be honest, I’ve never actually seen the last Lord of the Rings movie, but I assume something like that happens. And if so, I can certainly relate to how Frodo was feeling in that moment! Why, you ask? Because, my friends, just moments ago, I zipped-up all the files for our TBTL Greatest Hits album and dropped them into the vault at Pirates Press, the company that’s cutting the vinyl record for us. The vault was my version of Mt. Doom. The files, my Invisi-ring. And as for all those dragons and orcs? Maybe those were my insecurities and self doubts along the way. But I defeated them, just as Frodo defeated all those tree people. So, where does that leave you, the TBTL donors who contributed during the last TBTL-a-Thon and who’ve been waiting for your records to arrive? Well, I consider you to be the patient Gandalf-type, back in The Shire, mindlessly poking at the hearth and wondering when your heroes (the album) will finally arrive home. Well, fear not, my anxious wizards! It’s now just a matter of time. Test pressings are in the works, and once we give final approval, the records will be zipping through the US Postal Service faster than Aragorn on his speeder bike! We sincerely appreciate your patience these past few months. I don’t want to oversell the record and raise your expectations too high, but I will say that Luke and I had a blast pulling all the greatest hits together and recording new tracks for the album. I hope you love it as much as we do.
