Re: Fire Dancer pendant

I will try to sum it up for you.

To the best of my knowledge, my brother was making these things for me to give out to people at shows. I gave about 30 of them away to friends that I met at the Gorge in '09 then again in '10. When I told him of the overwhelming demand for them, he started really producing them for sale. He contacted the copyright attorneys from the merch dept. and the never got back to him. Once the merch peeps saw the pendents for sale on the FB DMB family page, they contacted him and asked if he would be interested in producing them for the band.

Yes, He has been dishonest here on the boards, and that was definately the wrong move. He was also kind of a d*&^ head about some things, but he is also quite easily pissed off. Trust me, I have been pissing him off my whole life!

Anyway you put it, he is very talented and the charms are very well made. I wish this thread would die. The hammerheads have really made this fortune for my family not as enjoyable as it should be. And let me tell you this... the firedancer is not the only item he will be producing. There will be charms for Pandora bracelets and figure 8 guitar picks. So when you people want to keep the bashing going, try to remember this...he (my brother) is producing these things with only my 65 year father to help him. Thats it! Two people making jewelery for the mass of fans that are buying them! Thats should be enough to forgive the actions of his dishonesty and quiet the hammerheads!
Enjoy the tour!

Whose that rider? Why, its John! The revelator!

    Marc Williams DOES make these. I have one of the first ones he sold on Etsy and I absolutely love it. Great purchase. So many compliments. And it's held up for many years!

    Marc, you've made it. You can stop creating fake accounts now. DMB wants your stuff. Just let real people write reviews of them.

    If there's one thing we've learned here, it's that you are in serious need of a PR person. And by PR person, I of course mean therapist.

    Man, some of you people can be so dumb. If you look at the other post from this supposed alternate account, you would see that they are from Ohio posting in the Riverbend thread. We are from Scranton ding dong! Not an alternate account.

    I bought 1 at the last show, bent it down the middle and returned it for a full refund. Hopefully it comes out of Marc's expenses

    30 people each year at the Gorge sure seems like "overwhelming demand".

    If 30 people came up to me and asked me to shit in a box for them, I would be overwhelmed too.

    wahhhhhh you have been reported for hurting feelings.... you little bitch..

    is this what you do to people.. you harass the shit out of them and when they say something you don't like, you report them.... I bet you just graduated high school.. I bet you are part of the generation of wimps that got a trophy even when you didn't win, just to make you feel better...

    sounds like someone needs to get off mommy's tit and grow up and be a man... Were the bully on the bus or did you get your ass handed to you on a daily basis? I bet it was the later.....

    Get me banned. I don't give a shit... you sir are a

    I'm not the one harassing people. Every single one of your posts has been name calling like douche and bitch. Talk about just graduating high school.

    It's odd that a brand new user just starts calling people names. Unless you're an alter who has multiple usernames. But that can't be it, cause its against the rules.....
