my recent post about the end of SASO included a thank you list of folks that have been totally rad and been a part of the projeect. i missed somebody very special out. probably the single most important person. with out him, i wouldn’t be the man i am today. i wouldn’t know how to play guitar, tie my own shoe laces or hold a note. he has been an inspiration to many for at least a decade, and to not thank him in the closing of this project was criminal, so i am trying to make good here.

Russell Whitehorn provided a fact/’fact’ every week for about 100 weeks. maybe more. honestly i lost count. this dedication and commitment to the sharing of knowledge should not go un-noticed, so i would like to publicly and whole-hardheartedly thank him.

Whitehorn’s Weekly Wisdom shall always hold a special place in my loin.

Whitehorn is the bassist in the legendary Silent Front. his bass playing is recognised all over the world, as you can see here.

I shall probably be seeing him tonight at the Love Among the Mannequins / Mayors of Miyazaki show in london. you should come.

Russ. I was wrong to miss you from the list. Forgive me.

Tony Haines.
