lovely show on friday. have a wonderful hiatus - we im/patiently await you return. in the mean time i guess i will have to wear out the cds. until next time...
PLEASE consider another Renegade Theatre type show to allow us to send you guys off on your respective paths. Last night was amazing, but entirely too short lived. There is going to be a LARGE hole in the art music world without The Autumns.
I love you guys, but I'm not sure how I feel about Jeffrey Star in your new video...Don't let the label yank you around too much. I know you guys are still the awesome band I've listened to for so long.
hey, boys? I was in Cuba this evening having din•din and who was sitting at the next table over but Ms. Angela Shelton! she sends her love..SHE loves YOU. me too. Mmmmmmmm, The Autumns & Arroz con Pollo.
wossup The Autumns? It's "that guy" again. we met in fullerton and LA a few months ago, im dying to see you guys again, im leaving this summer for 2 years to live in kentucky, i really want to see you guys live again before i leave. good luck and best wishes Dan
hey there ! Just dropped by to taste some of your magic again... I love it ! Too bad you took "the end" off the player,but thats my very own opinion. hope you're doin good. wish you the best Bye Geoffrey
I spent most of the winter listening to "Le Carillon," which a friend had pressed on me years ago but had never really given much of a chance. It's as lovely as can be. My thanks for the add.
SXSW was amazing, thank you for pulling strings for us, Its refreshing to see a band that cares as much as you do about your fans. aside from family, I miss Cali most because of you!!
Fantastic show last night at SXSW. I can't thank you enough for what you did for us last night getting us in to see you after we thought we would not. Not only are you an amazingly talented band, you are wonderful guys who really care about your fans and for that I simply adore you. Thank you!
I am devastated that I missed seeing you guys in Texas last night. I got out of work late, and didnt make enough in tips to afford the gas to get there and back, and the guy that was supposed to ride with me flaked out last minute. I sat in a dirty little bar in Gatesville, Texas and drank cheap whiskey wondering if you guys were gonna play anything from In The Russett Gold of This Vain Hour.....
I hope you were the kings of the Ides of March in Austin.
You guys were amazing tonight! I'm so glad you came to SXSW! It was worth every penny of the $20 cover! "The End" was simply transcendent; sacramental even.
i dont remember if you guys remember me telling you im a film student, but i was in a film competition this last weekend and made this movie in 48 hours. if you get a chance some time you should watch it, i wear your shirt in it :D Dan!
