    Thanks for asking Andy about Tasmania. I hope they do come down for a show as Tasmania has many fans of Short Stack.

    Thank you for the templates.

    Thanks for that. I'll look them up.
    I try not to ring Andy too often since they're so busy lately, but I'll try to remember next time I talk to him.
    By the looks of your website, you'd have no problems making up stickers of your own, but I'm happy to mail some out to you if you want.
    BTW, the link in your signature is broken. I think it's because you spelled it 'official' instead of the French 'officiel'.

    I don't have anything to do with management, apart from talking to Trevor and Chris when I see them at gigs. Since I'm becoming a bit more involved with you fans now, I'll try to get some contact details next time I see them, but it's not the sort of thing I'd make public. I don't want to be the cause of them getting their mail boxes flooded with fan mail. You'd have to have a good reason to contact them, and it's probably best that you either ask them yourself, or send me a message as a PM and I can try to get it to them.
    My surname is quite uncommon, and I often get calls from fans asking for Andrew. My brother and sister have had calls as well. At first I'd tell them that he doesn't live here but I could get a message to him. One fan was very creative, and she told me she was his girlfriend but that she'd lost his number and had something urgent to tell him. I asked her what it was and she told me it was personal. I told her that if she were really his girlfriend, then she shouldn't have lost his number. If he wants someone to have his number, then he'll give it to them himself.
    Then I got a call straight back from the same girl, saying that I'd just won a season pass to Hoyts cinemas. I said "Let me guess. I just have to give you Andy's number to claim my prize, right?". "You've got it", she said. "Better luck next time" I said to her, and we both had a good laugh.
    Of course I'd never give out his number to anyone I don't know. But one fan kept calling me, to the point of harassment. She only stopped after I threatened to have the call traced. I was getting ready to pull a prank on her, similar to a very funny one on Youtube. I don't want to embed the video here, but if you google 'Pranked Telemarketer', the call gave me a good laugh, and I'm sure I could have pulled off something funny if she'd rung back.
    But now my standard answer is that I don't know any Andrew. It's unfortunate that one rotten egg can spoil it, because I don't mind trying to give him messages from his fans.
    I thought that was a cool story, but of course it gives away my number at the same time.

    I don't know anyone called Andrew.

    And that's not an invitation to call because I don't really want to go to the hassle of getting my number changed.

    I get notification in my email, and I thought it was nice.
    I can send you some stickers if you want. I have some ties to New Zealand, but I've never been there. I plan on taking a cycling tour there in a few years, all going well.

    Thank you for the correction on the link. I just fixed it so it should work.
    Could you possibly send me some stickers? The templates you gave as are quite small.

    Enjoy your day.

    The templates are very large at 1686px × 2304px.

    I clicked on the thumbnail and it brought me to the Imageshack page. I clicked on the image and it loaded the full resolution file, sized to fit my screen. If you click on it again, it will blow up to 1686px × 2304px. Much larger than my screen size.
    I right clicked on it, and saved it to my desktop.
    I opened a blank Word document, and stretched the perimeter just short of the edges of the page.
    I went to Insert>picture>from file>desktop, and clicked on the file.
    I clicked on the image in Word, and dragged the perimeter to the limit.
    I inserted a square label sheet (I couldn't get blank sticker sheet, but CD label, or any type of label sheet will do) into the printer and pressed print.
    It prompted me that the edges were outside the printing area, but I ignored the prompt and pressed go.
    I put the printed A4 in a jacket, and fed it through my laminator.
    I cut out the stickers, pealed of the backing, and stuck them to my wall.
    It says SWAY SWAY LORIANNE on the disc, and I can read the fine print copyright information on all the discs.
    It's on my wall along with my officially endorsed poster of Apestack, and my picture of their impromptu appearance under the Harbour Bridge. It was unannounced, and there wasn't much of a turnout.
    The boys signed my poster, and Trevor had a good laugh when I showed him my new band, and he showed it around. He told me he's putting an Apestack sticker on his guitar case.
    Keep clicking on that image until you get the full sized 800x1067 137kb version

    I was handing out a few miniature Apestack posters, but it's hard to make out where Magilla says 'Ooh Ooh Baby' when it gets too small.
    I can send you some that say whatever you want on the disc, in lightning font. I could also insert a personal name underneath 'Princess' on the other disc, but I don't know where I'd find a matching font to work with. It's a bit unusual, and there's too many out there to look through.

    having people call your house must be really weird - its such an invasion of privacy. i would never even think or consider doing that.

    silly people.

    That's alright Kathleen. I mentioned earlier that you have to be careful who you talk to on the internet, and if you want some stickers then send me a private message. Since you live close by I don't need your address. I'll give you some stickers if you knock on my door. I'm sorry I didn't hear you when you came, but thanks for your note.
    It really makes me smile when someone appreciates my poster, and I'll keep the note in my files thanks.

    One of the reasons that Andy didn't want me to put the poster up is that he was afraid that it might be egged or worse. As you know, most of the fanbase are young girls, and it stands to reason that there'd be some young boys who may resent them. The guys from the band have had threats;

    "We get death threats," singer Shaun Diviney says. "Because of the way we look some people want to kill us. Not just murder us, they want to seriously f--- us up, cut off our fingers and feed them to us. I don't think they're serious. We just laugh it off.

    "We read that Brian McFadden hired security guards because one guy freaked him out on Twitter. It's like, dude, toughen up. Get some balls."
    http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sto...006024,00.html

    I don't take them seriously, and it's likely just some kid in his mum's basement trying to act tough. You see them comment on Youtube all the time. If they egg the poster I'll hose it off. If they tear it up one night, it won't be a total dissapointment, because even though it's yet to be finished, it's already served it's purpose. I'll show you what that is later. And if I get a brick through my window, it doesn't matter that much, because I'm a builder/carpenter, and I've yet to renovate the front of the house, involving replacing all the windows. There's a good chance I'll catch them with my cameras as well, because my computer room is directly behind the poster, and the lights outside are on sensors.

    I don't mean to scare anyone here, but it's very important that you never post any personal details in public on the internet.

    haha wow! kudos to you john!
    i know lots of people have already said this but you really are a dedicated father
    and i'm pretty impressed with your internet skills!
    my parents are pretty clueless with all things technology related
    just wondering if you could make me a sticker template as well?
    you don't have to send it though because my parents will probably knife me if they find out i gave out our address to a random on the internet, even if he IS andy clemmensen's father :P
    you can just use the name zoe haha
    thanks! but don't worry if you don't get round to doing it, it's no biggie

    Many people have said on Skyblog that they like what you have done with the poster and that they want the same done in their gardens.
    Can we ask you anything about Andy?

    Will you still be sending out stickers?
