The first Hanoi Rocks website Online since 1995
More thank you's
A rousing and hearty "thank you" goes out to:
Hanoi Rocks list members - this project simply would not have been possible without the support and comments of numerous members of the Hanoi Rocks mailing list. Please take no offense if I've left you off this list, but special thank you's to list members Mike ("Mcmooch72"), Cecilia, Arthur, "oblivionbaby66," "KayJay," Kalle, Jukka H, Markku, Kate, Johnny, Juha, Anssi, Ari, "pete generation," "killcitykid," Julian, and of course Lambchops and Xan.
It can get heated on the list, and we all have different perspectives, but I have learned greatly from all of your comments. Regardless of any differences, your collective dedication to Hanoi Rocks cannot be questioned. A very special thanks to those of you who took the step of corresponding with me individually and helping me out.
Hanoi Rocks collectors - Hanoi Rocks has an impressive group of international collectors who are invaluable when rare music is needed. I have to take my hat off to Jukka Nissinen for his generous assistance. Another collector who wishes to remain private - thanks, you know who you are.
Kerrang! collectors - This project started with the search for rare Kerrangs!. Two folks in particular really came through - Ron S and Andrew F, who took my "search for the holy grail" as a personal mission. Thanks Andrew!!! The folks at Rock of Ages also came through several times with missing issues.
Kerrang! Magazine Kerrang! played a key role in the editorial coverage of Hanoi Rocks. Without Kerrang!'s commitment to Dave Dickson and Hanoi Rocks, this interview would never have come to pass.
Thanks to Dave Dickson for his permission to reprint/excerpt his articles in this interview. All articles are the copright of Dave Dickson, 2002, and may not be reprinted without permission.
