Morbid Angel Pete "Commando" Sandoval - "thank you" card

In 2010. I sent Pete some money for medical bills (around 15$ if I remember correctly) when he had a back surgery for a deteriorating disc problem.
I didn't even expect to get anything in return but few months after I sent the money there was a package at my doorstep!
I received this:

In 2014. when my gf and I attended Brutal Assault, we went to meet&greet with Terrorizer.
There was Pete, Lee Harrison and Sam Molina signing stuff for their fans and when Pete saw this paper he was out of his mind! And he was really nice to me, thanking me that I helped him. Even hugged me haha! We chatted and had some laughs especially over the "I'M BACK" quote, immitating the Terminator hahaha!
Pete is an amazing drummer and I'm glad that I managed to help him somehow.

Not for sale or trade

Really really cool, probably one of the best drummers I've ever seen live, just a machine

Thanks man! A machine indeed! Better than machine even! Now you remembered me of this:
"According to former singer David Vincent, the band once played a prank on Sandoval by making him listen to a band that used a preprogrammed drum machine, and pretended it was a real drummer who could play faster than he could. Sandoval was gutted, and went on to practice until he managed to play faster than the machine"
