We feel lucky to have could profit from the supports of fantastic people during all these years. We make a point of thanking all the people having worked with us, who supported us by what they wrote on us, those which divided posters as those which inspired to us.

But above all we make a point of expressing our gratitude with our fantastic fans. You were a big part in our history since our beginnings. We could not have made our music without your enthusiasm, your passion and your honesty. It is you who made so that this voyage is worth the sorrow to be lived.

Thank you Sleater-Kinney "
