Deltron 3030 (Del the Funky Homosapien, Kid Koala & Dan the Automator)

On April 2, 2014, I went to see Deltron 3030 perform at The State Theatre in St. Petersburg, FL.
Hours before the show I met Kid Koala and Dan the Automator. I met Del immediately after the show ended.
I hate asking for multiple autographs but I really like getting CDs personalized. I knew there'd be limited space having 3 guys sign a CD cover, so, I asked them to sign the Deltron 3030 CD and personalize their solo CDs. Dan the Automator seemed to get a kick out of signing his CD for me. When I asked him to make it out to Dan, he says to Kid Koala, who was standing nearby, "Hey, Eric, to Dan from Dan."
The bottom picture was taken by Domino of Hieroglyphics and posted on Deltron 3030's Twitter account. I spotted myself in the shot.
Deltron 3030 (Kid Koala, Dan the Automator & Del the Funky Homosapien) signed their self-titled debut CD as well as their individual solo CDs, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, A Better Tomorrow EP and I Wish My Brother George Was Here, respectively.
