"This week brings an end to 2007 and a year we'll never forget, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons. Whilst we still feel very sad, it's important to remember just how lucky we all are and think of people who are in a far worse position than ourselves. Our thoughts are with Pepsi's [Tate; late TIGERTAILZ bassist who died in September after a long battle with pancreatic cancer] wife Shan, his mother Gail and all Pepsi's family at this difficult time. We would also like to send our love and best wishes to all you TIGERTAILZ friends and families across the world. Over 2007 you have proved to be some of the most incredible people and we salute you. Here's hoping you all have a great Xmas and New Year... We plan to issue a clear statement in the New Year on how TIGERTAILZ will continue to function."
