A few months before Christmas of 2001, the BillyHeads become restless; it was time for another project! Once again we wanted to show our appreciation to Billy, and with the approaching Christmas holiday, the perfect opportunity had presented itself. Once again, the goal became not only to show our appreciation to Billy, but to get him in front of the eyes of more people. The decision was made to create and place a magazine "ad" thanking Billy and his crew for everything. But what magazine? The answer was simple. The ad was placed in Music Row, a highly-respected country music industry magazine that is delivered to country music insiders around the country.
The ad was created to serve its purpose: To thank Billy, and it did
precisely that. The ad, entitled A Note of Thanks gave our personal thanks to Doug, Janey, Kelly, and Jonathan at RPM Management. It also thanked Anita at Sony Music, Ben, who was in charge of Billy's summer "=29 Tour" and the rest of the road crew, Billy's band, Jessica Andrews, Billy's parents, grandparents and his little brother, Colin, Angela Bacari and Al Lorenzo, and of course, Billy himself. Signed simply "with love from your fans," the message came straight from the heart and, hopefully, was received the same way. Once again the BillyHeads community came through with flying colors, far surpassing the initial $900 fee to raise a whopping $1125 extra which, in keeping with tradition, was donated to St. Jude's Children's Hospital in Billy's name.
