As always, there’s an entire list of people to thank in these pages.

First and foremost, my wife Jennifer. Thank you for supporting this crazy endeavor. Thank you for coming along to the book signings and the events, always with a smile and a helping hand. And thank you for always letting me choose the soundtrack to our road trips. I love living this life side by side with you.

To the “real” Derrick: When I finally “cracked” this story, I had the realization that I was coming at it from the wrong angle. It wasn’t my story that needed to be told—it was yours. I hope I’ve done it justice. Obviously, I’ve taken a lot of creative license, but at the heart of it, the story of our friendship and playing music together in a garage band was, and remains, my favorite memory of growing up.

Charles D’Amico: Thank you for believing in my ability to write and to tell stories and to want to get those stories to as large an audience as possible. Having your support and the support of Blue Handle Publishing has been incredible.
