Special Thanks:
We’d like to thank the following people, who at various times have been instrumental in the creation of The World Over. In a subtly chronological order, we’d like to thank: our families of course, without whom neither of us could exist, Barry and Ingrid, Herb and Janet ( our patient and enduring neighbours), Ryan Dahle (one guitar lesson is sometimes all you need), Jordy Birch (there at the beginning and he got it), Vince Tuckwood (always with the supportive words), Jesse Smith, Jonas Fairly, Shawn Penner, our backing vocalists: Barb, Erin, Phil, Jill, Sean, Joel, Hugh Ellenwood (for your singing and your violin), Kildare and Jennifer; Les Pilchak (another person who gave support when we needed it), Ryan Henning, Gary Henning (count on your brothers for constructive criticism), Rob Edmonds (I hope we can buy enough beer to repay you for the artwork - your karma will be spotless for life), Mark Maryanovich (such lovely photography), Nick Jones, Todd Simko, Paul Schroeder (still influencing), our friends from myspace who’ve been so constructive in our development and Dr. Edwin LaBounty (your lessons are still learned). The world is filled with amazing people, these are just a few that have helped us directly.
Musical Thanks:
Additionally I think it would be fair to give some credit to a few of the inspiring recording artists that have filled my mind with so much great music: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Queen, Led Zepplin, The Police, New Order, Peter Gabriel, The Stone Roses, The Happy Mondays, Oasis, Leftfield, Love and Rockets, The Dandy Warhols, and Sigur Ros. Of course it would be remiss to leave out Mozart and Beethovan, Handel, J.S. Bach, Chopin, Debussy and Stravinsky as well, but I hope it doesn’t seem pretentious. They’re in there too, it’s just you’ve got to dig pretty deeply!
