Try This Again (Jerry keep out xoxox)

Sun, Aug 23, 2009 at 3:21 PM by @BassNachosTacos

Hey everyone, it is me again, trying to wake the dead lost thread that I started months back.

As some of you know, some of us are putting together something for the guys, and we want as many people as possible to take part in it..

A while ago, a select few started to compile a collection of thank you letters for Papa Roach. The idea was to give back and say thank you for everything they've ever done for us, regardless of how small.

As well as Thank you letters, we are throwing in live photos, sketches, poetry, songs, lyrical artwork. We are all about new ideas and anything else we could throw in there that is Papa Roach Related.

*Note* All art work is to be mailed in or sent through post.

Thank you to everyone who is ready to take this seriously.

    Here is my papa roach tattoo. Stars with the words "Live, Love, Fight" from Crash. Larger version available on my flickr through my profile if you need it.



    I will try to write a thank you letter, but no promises. I'm not very good at putting my feelings into words. I'll probably wind up sounding like a total spaz but I'll give it a go.

    Yes Mannie, great. I am trying my hardest to not attack people with reminders, but given schools about to start people are getting busy in general, i am getting nervous that this will slip people's minds and then, well that would suck. I am trying to do weekly reminders but yeah know me, =@ "heey wheres your stuf!!?!?!?!? =@ it's not in my mail box aaaahhhhhh" buildings are burning downnn"

    i get a little crazy with it lol... and i am sick so at least right now i have an excuse for it.

    hey.. I'm still workin on mine..
    I don't care much that the school has started, I'm gonna do it anyway =)
    but I wanted to ask when is deadline, cos I'm gonna see PR again in about 3 weeks so I was wondering if I should wait for it, cos I'm gonna definitely have more pictures from there..

    Hey:D I'm done with my drawing, still need some on my letter and my lyric artXD there's just a few things i need to know:
    - Should i glue my drawings on something?
    - should I glue the hole shit on something?
    (this is the essential, thing. is it kinda a collage we each should do? or should we just send you the pieces with name on and you'll put it together?)
    I need to know this before I can move on? i'm kinda stuck.
    my biggest drawing is like 20x15 cm and the small on is like 10x10 cm. do you guys say it inches or something cause then i dunno what it is.

    Dude, you have to get in contact with me about this. I could sort out some live photos from Uk gigs to go in. Get them printed properly and sent to you through the mail. It's actually given me another idea along the same lines. Not trying to steal ideas but this might be a bit easier and would be from us UK fans specifically.

    There is no deadline as of right now, because i am not sure when my show will be. That is what i am waiting on, when I know, you will know, if you wanna finish what you have and wait for a few more photos to throw in that's cool.. Assuming you'll have that sent over to me as soon as possible after that =)

    Yeah we usually stick to inches.. and I am thinking of centimeters when you say cm. Is that what you mean?

    It all depends on what you want to do. it would be less bulgy if i set what you wanted directly in the pages, however if you want to lay it down on construction paper or something, that's fine. It really is all up to you.

    Does that answer everything you needed to know?

    I would love those who were at one point interested in this, and at the time may not have had the time, or were unhinged at my "taking everything too personal" to come back and join in.
    As well as newer members of the site.

    A while ago, a select few started to compile a collection of thank you letters and fan mail and cartoons and songs, fan art and well everything Papa Roach related, for Papa Roach.

    The idea was to give back and say thank you for everything they've ever done for us, regardless of how small.

    And there is plenty of space for you to come up with your own stuff to add in, we had plenty of extras, song lists, tour list, anything you imagination desires...

    Allrighty... I had a bit of a catastrophe; My Coat of Arms drawing was turned into a grocery list, but I'm going to make a new one! Good news my printer is fully functional and I have a bunch of live photos. I'm thinking about making a poster. So I can send stuff in anytime ;)
