Thank you so much for accepting our friend request!

We inspected the message attached to your friend request with a fine tooth comb to make sure it was the best message ever to send to you!

We made sure Amy, our manager had slashed the 't's and dotted the... lower case 'j's. She then lit a candle and a hush fell over the band as she clicked the 'add to friends' button.

When we saw that you had become our friend, we all cheered and had a wonderful celebration! Booze was drunk & beautiful women were embraced - all in your name! We hope you enjoy being our friend as we think it's pretty cool that we're now yours! You totally rock in our book!

It would be great if you could check out our tunes and keep your eye out for gig dates in your area!

Welcome to the Gunner SGT Army and once again, thanks for being our friend!

Rock ON!

From The Gunner SGT Boys... Dan, Matt and Ben!
