Mellotronists

Five years ago today I came home from an excited and adrenaline-enhanced ten-hour road trip, one of the most interminable journeys I have ever made, single-handedly carried a large and bulky package from my van into my house and plugged in and played the first Mellotron I ever owned. Little did I suspect that I would end up acquiring another one in the time since then. Thanks to all of you friends I have never met for the EIGHT wonderful years that I have enjoyed the pleasure and honor of your company on this list. Even when it's silly, this is the most amazing group of people I have ever associated with.
