1 CHRONICLES 16:8-11 Give thanks to the LORD, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done. Sing to Him, praise to Him; tell of all His wonderful acts. Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Look to the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.
I am thankful and honored to have another opportunity to say thanks again on yet another CD. When we started 15 years ago, we used to call them records. I am grateful to my wife Leighanne and son Baylee for always being my number one team. Both of you will always come first, no matter what! I want to thank my family for putting up with me through the many years of craziness!!! I love you all very much. Thank you so much to the fans; without you there would be no us. We appreciate you! I also want to thank a good friend of mine who believed in us when no one else did. Jared we are grateful for the tireless hours you put in the Unbreakable project. Prick, Jizzle and D let's go and get 'em!! I GOTTA GO!

I can't believe we've come this far. Hell, I can't believe I have come this far. What an amazing and life changing experience this has been. I have so many wonderful memories and many more to make with you guys. By you guys, I mean the following people - first to my mother, you have taught me everything a mom could about being a man. You have always been there and I know you always will. I am proud to be your little boy all grown up now and I can't wait to follow in your footsteps (which are hard to follow) and be married, have my own family and grow old with someone I love. Thank you, Mom and thank you Tony for being the father I never had. It's an honor to call you Dad! I'll love you both untill the day that I die. Next, to all of my family, thank you all for always being so patient and understanding with me for the past 30 years. Damn, I'm getting old! To my best friends, Chris and Renee, you guys are my armor, always there to protect me, especially from myself. I love you guys and Renee, I will always regret not being there for you and I will always remember Yuri as a brother to me. He was very gifted and sweet spirited and he will be missed. I love you both. Rachel, baby cakes, "I love your face." Nooooo, what can I say, you are my true best friend and so much more. My life wouldn't be complete without you in it. I love you and live for you, now and forever. Thank you for getting me and for loving Alex. You are an inspiration to everyone you come in contact with. I love you! To my second family, I love you guys - Trisha, Roger Terry, Matt, Nick, Katie and we can't forget Biggins "Gunny." Moving on - I knew this would be long, but I have to get this right. To all my boys, Terry, Mica, AK, Corey, Pico, Chase, Perry, Johnny, Marcus, Cliff, Q, Drew, Joey, Bruno, Mo, Ralphy, Jared, Tom, Jason and Nicky B - you are my real life entourage, my brothers, and I love you all in your own messed up ways. You guys will be in my life forever. Also, to some of the ladies in my life aswell - Darta, Jenna, Taili, Dina, Britney, Kate, Jenn, Jamie 1 and Jamie 2, Kristin 1 and Kristin 3, Meg "and I love you a$$hole," Kara, Gaby, Leigh, Leighann and Brianna - thanks for always showing me the lighter side of things and for sometimes letting your men out to play with Jizzle. Tyler and Lindsay, what can I say! Linds - you are beautiful and über-talented and I wish you the most success and Tyler, we're a kick ass team. Let's do this thing and I promise all the croissants you can handle. Tyler Shields is the best! JC - you are an amazing talent and it was a great pleasure workin gwith you. Eric - you have been one of my best friends for over ten years and now you're my freaking manager. You're amazing and gifted and you are such a hard worker. Keep up the good work, buddy; we are going places. Last but not least, the boys - first, Kevin - dude, this sucks. I miss you, man. You're always going to be my big brother and I will forever thank you for the best 13 years of my life and for believing in me, waking me up and helping me be sober for now five years. Side note - congrats to you and your wife for being the proud parents of your first child. To the other goofballs - Nick, dude you've grown up so fast, but you've become a great man, kid! I love you little bro and I couldn't be more proud of you. Brian - I know we've had our moments, but you've taught me so much about life and balance in it and I owe you my life. You're a great friend and father - I love you, you prick. ANd finally Howie. Howie what can I say dude, I've known you since I was 12. You're such a trooper and a kind spirit and a very hard worker. Don't ever change a hair on your head, even hair 72. I'm proud of you brother, especially on this record. You've come so far and you sound amazing on this record. All I've got to say is, IT'S ABOUT TIME. I love you guys and thanks for always believing in me. To all our fans, you all, every last one, are the backbone of the BSB. If not for all of you, I and we could not fulfill our dreams. Thank you for 15 wonderful years and I hope you all show me the same support when I venture off on my own (which will be soon - YAY!) Well that about sums it up and if you haven't fallen asleep yet, we really did it guys, we truly are and always will be UNBREAKABLE! (I dedicate this album to Ursula and Adolph Fernandez - I love you and miss you.) P.S someone just farted and reminded me not to forget the greatest, most loyal friends I've got (with a lot of hair). Bernie and Ozzy, I would be lost without you guys. So in closing, goodbye, goodnight or good morning to all, to all remember life is just!
