Hang in there and don't lose hope. They have a way of turning up when you least expect it. I really hope everything works out for you. I know how anxious it can be.

BTW, when I was twelve the first "album" I ever bought at a "record store" was Alice Cooper, Goes to Hell. So that should give you a good idea of my age. Huge Cooper fan here. I remember watching his Welcome to my Nightmare show on TV back in 75. Went and saw him at Cobo Hall in 76 or 77. It was his King of the Silver Screen tour.

Take care and keep us posted.
