My friends, it should come as no surprise to you that the economic status of the world is far from ideal. The music industry in particular is feeling some of the most powerful swells of this black tide and Taking Dawn is no exception. I don't mean to undermine the monumental cornerstones that we have marked thanks to you, the fans. From getting signed to Roadrunner to our arena tour with KISS and the most recent culmination of everyone's hard work; playing the main stage at Download Festival. But there is still much work to be done. I know we ask much of our fans but its only because we as that much if not more of ourselves. Right now is probably the most difficult time to be in rock 'n roll. We know this and despite the gargantuan sometimes hideous obstacles we gladly carry on because this is what we know and love. So before we ask you once again to spread the word in every way you can know that we too are pledging to do everything in our power to keep creating and performing music that inspires in all corners of the globe. So if you STILL don't own "Time To Burn." What are you waiting for?! Go buy it! Already own it? But it again! I myself have purchased dozens of copies with what little money I have! Don't have the money? Who cares! Do something! Write blogs, make flyers, call everyone in your phone book, mass texts, bulletins, tweets, yell out of your car window whilst driving down a busy street. The important thing is to do something! Every little bit helps! I know you have already done so much but now is the the time to do more! Ourselves included! So thanks again for being the best fans in the world and I'm confident that thanks to you we'll be propelling Taking Dawn to the next level!

Yours TRULY

Alan Doucette
