SCOTT: This album is dedicated to Michael Weiland, my brother and best friend. He was a great drummer and he always opened my eyes to cool music. To my mom and dad who have had to endure the worst this year. The passing of their son before them. Although it didn’t seem completely unexpected it was utterly incomprehensible and most of the time still is. I think most of us, including my parents are still waiting to get a phone call – to hear that sarcastic voice from that jaded son-of-a-bitch! God we miss him. Also to my wife Mary who allows me enough love and “inspiration” for the musical fodder I need to write these regards…and then some and that’s the way we like it. To the joys in my life, my son Noah and my daughter Lucy. They are both what keep me sane and make me insane. That’s why I love them. Special thanks to my partners at Soft Drive Records: Dana, Doug, Carley, Arik and Steve.
SLASH: To my loving family Perla, Cash, London, Ola, Tony, Ash & Sarah Hudson, Carmen Perla, Tony Ferrer, Adam, Jennifer & Dilynne Day, Daniel Hartman, Michelle Carter, Debbie Cooper, Jerry Cantrell, Bob Timmons, Mark Morrow, Agatha Blois, Lisa Ferguson, Carl Stubner, Nick Lawson, Sabrina Kahn, Eric Greenspan, Robert Ananian, Michael George, James Nee, Attila Acs, Marshall Amplification, Ernie Ball Strings, Dunlop Mfg., Seymour Duncan Pickups, Gibson Guitars, Epiphone Guitars, Monster Cable, Groove Tubes, B.C.

DUFF: My kick-ass wife and sweet daughters, Susan, Grace and Mae-Mae: I love you three with all of my heart. To all the crew who worked so hard to make the Contraband tour happen, especially you McBob. Benny and Sarah Urquidez for love, Michael Morteo for pain, Keith Foti, Scott Patterson, Beth Sabbaugh, Ray Gilmore, Trey Bruce, Jeffrey Steele. Geoff Reading, Eddy Huletz and Andy Fortier, Alan Wirtala, Raúl Ibañez and the Seattle Mariners, and my big brother John for, well, being a big brother!
