Question
Bill, Hi this is Doug Massey in SC. Is it possible to send a letter to Richard Jones (phils drum tech) through the bands mgmt or something like this. My wife and I met him in Atlanta on 10/23 and what a fine gentleman. He spent a few minutes chatting it up with us and taking pictures before he had to move on. Well on the following sunday night at the greensboro,nc show. He saw us right after the show and made sure he gave us Phils drumsticks he used that night. Security was so tight, they did not let us go down and speak to him personnally. We would like to be able to write him a thank you letter for the very kind thing he did for us. Hopefully you have an address that would be reliable!! thanks for your time

Hello Doug,
Thank you for your question.
Aside from the general record company addresses (SONY BMG/Columbia records or Albert music in Australia) there is no direct method of contacting the band. The other option that you can try is sending your thank you note to Richards attention at one of the venues that the band will be playing on their upcoming tour, however they have just finished their 2nd US leg, and will be in South America, and then NZ and Australia to follow after this. They will be back in the states again, however coming this April.
Best Regards,
Bill
