Bob Seger support?

[Moonfyire101]

Ok so my dad knows Bob Seger and a few other famous guys. He told me that as soon as he gets out of the hospital, 2-5 days, he can call him and some other people and see if they will contact NCSoft with a similar proposal as the other celebs. Dad has cancer and loves this game more than anything so he wants to save it as bad as we do. The prospect of getting Bob's help looks pretty good. Dad said he's a real nice guy. Let's all hope for more celeb support and I'd appreciate it if everyone thanked him if he does agree to help us. I'll update you when i get the news.

Pardon me, I'm about to have a fanboy moment...

Sorry.  I'm back now.  Bob Seger's just the apotheosis of cool...

OK, I'm done.  I promise I'll try really hard not to go all fanboy again until after I'm done typing this out.  (It's not my fault.  I grew up in MI.)

But yes, that would be pretty cool to have Bob Seger endorse the game.  It'd be awesome if he actually played, too.  But I think we'd need more motorcycles.

Please take an enormous hug for you and your Dad from me.  I would be honored to team with you at any time.

Fan boy all you like in a letter telling him how greatful you are if he does this. Maybe my dad can get him to play with us sometime if we save it too.

Ty for the hugs. Invite me anytime you see me. @MoonFyire

Holy cow, for real?  THE Bob Seger!!?  Hang on, I've got to throw on some Old Time Rock 'n Roll, I'll edit this post in a few minutes...

At least it's not just me.   :D

If he throws his hat in, and a miracle is pulled off, I move a new statue be erected to "The Silver Bullet".

I second that.  ;D

Statue my fanny. If this gets pulled off with SegerSupport, we need a Guitar option in the Mace set. (Should make a good mix with the Valentine toga for Belushi fans to boot.) That...is...awesome.

Yeah, but then we'd have to hear all the same ol' clichés, "Is that a woman or a man?"...

Seriously, if this comes through and we can get even so much as a statement like, "I hope those guys can save the game that is their passion" or... heck... I don't care, but any kind of support, it would be epic.  Let me know if there's anything I need to do or can do to help.  And thanks a TON for chasing down this channel.  I've loved Bob Seger since I was a kid.  My sister saw him in concert just a few months ago, and I was jealous.  She came to see me the weekend before and we played his album while riding around in the car.  I'm not exaggerating when I say that whenever people ask me what kind of music I like, my stock answer is, "I like that old time rock and roll.  Give me Seger, Frampton, Pink Floyd, The Who, Browne,...  and I'm in heaven."

[Vulpy]

Heck, if this pans out, I may nominate a Seger song for our unofficial anthem. "Runnin' Against the Wind"? I don't know.

Dust off that scrapper, get your tanker set
Hit the Hive with your Corruptor's pets
Grab a Blaster or Flavor of the Month
It's time to feed the Hamidon

Don't try to take me to the D, oh no!
You'll never get me on that second floor
In 10 minutes I'll be hitting the store
I like that old time Hamidon

(Chorus)
Still like that old time Hamidon
The kinda raid that just soothes the soul
I reminisce about the builds of old
With that old time Hamidon

Won't go to fight no Rikti
I'd rather farm AE for ticket gold
There's only one sure way to get me to go
Invite me to a Hamidon

Call me a relic call me what'cha will
Say I'm out dated say I'm over the hill
Today's raids ain't got the same soul
I like the old time Hamidon!

(Chorus 4 times)

I still like that old time Hamidon!

Yes the real Bob Seger. Soon as he's (my dad) out of the hopital he'll call him. He had surgery today so i expect he might be home by the weekend. I'll let you know what he (Seger) says.

[eabrace]

Hope your dad recovers quickly.  (No, not because he knows Bob Seger.  'Cause he's your dad.)

TY me too. If any of you know of any experimental medicines or treatments for Sarcoma let me know becuase radiation and chemo don't help...He'll try anything.
