Here’s a quote from David Goodspeed, who helped with the event:
“THANK YOU to the more than 100 people who showed up tonight to hear Greg Renoff talk once again at OU about his amazing success story of writing his book Van Halen Rising all about the world’s greatest American rock band.
“A HUGE thanks to Vain Eudes, Greg Renoff, Denise Dutton, Jeffrey B. Schmidt, Kris Glenn, Kristopher Davis, Jordan Wayne, Michelle Nehrenz, Kyle Bishop, Brodie Montgomery, David Hoffner, Kalyn Norrell, Jack Chapman, Debra Levy Martinelli, Tori Lynn Crain, Michael-Lisa Tomas and Melissa White.
“Without them NONE of this would have ever happened. I know I’m missing more who helped, but you know who you are and I will THANK each and every last one of you once I clear my head a bit!
“Thanks to Kelly Damphousse for taking the pics! I let the fan boy in me just enjoy the moment tonight. smile emoticon
Special extra thanks to my kick ass wife Suzanne Goodspeed who supports me and, well tolerates the extreme passion I have for this band. It’s a family thing and the support she gives when I say “I have an idea….” is amazing!”
