This Pit Member has been running the Wishlist Foundation at the Pre Party's for the last few shows. It is a lot of work and it is for a great cause - and he deserves some recognition.

Thank you Demtrios for everything - including giving me your extra ticket for last night.

    I wasn't at the pre-party for long but did sit beside Demtrios last night at Massey and we chatted about putting in the leg work for these pre-party fundraisers. You did a lot of work buddy. Thanks for stepping up!

    Was that you? You don't have to answer that, because obviously the answer is yes. Sorry, I didn't realize - I would've introduced myself otherwise.

    THANK YOU!!!

    If it wasn't for your organizing skills and effort, I wouldn't have gotten tickets to Sunday night.

    And thanks for the free DVDs......
    Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.... (Voltaire)

    Hey Trix! ;)

    I have never had the pleasure of meeting Demetrios nor do I collect bootlegs and such, but he seems like an awesome person.
    Cheers to him.

    And I don't feel right when you're gone away
