The Bouncing Souls are known to embrace their fans like few other bands of their stature around today. Be it a fan-created lego-rendition of their new video, or a meet-and-greet appearance at their favorite punk rock clothing store, The Souls make sure they support and shine a spotlight on their biggest fans whenever possible.
Now, coming from the the city of New York, a fan by the name of Liz Baillie has made a Bouncing Souls comic book, entitled, "Sing Along Forever: A Love Letter To The Bouncing Souls." Comic book publisher Tony Shenton explains:
"Sing Along Forever is an autobiographic reminiscence of Liz Baillie's love for the Bouncing Souls. She goes to see the band with a friend and recalls some earlier attempts to see them, with some incidents humorous and some ridiculous...but all heartfelt. As her own story's narrator, she breaks the 4th wall from time to time, usually resulting in at least a chuckle or a guffaw. Will she succeed in her quest to get a photo with the band for the back cover of her comic? Will the rules be bent or broken? Will her friend Robin walk away on his own? He functions as both a greek chorus and a gadfly at times, helping to give the story more balance and an anchor in reality. This autobiographic gem is for anyone who has ever been, or ever will be, a true fan of any band."
* The 44-page, black and white comic has been pressed and made available at the Chunksaah Records Store for the fan-friendly price of $5.
