Hi guys

I finally had a chance to buy one of your cd's now that I'm Edinburgh. They're quite hard to find in Belgium. Your music is really amazing!

If I ever have a chance to see you live somewhere, I'll be standing on the front row!

Hi lads,

I'm not sure what part of the world you are all in at the mo, but just letting you know I'm doing a gig in the Cobblestone this Thursday (24th). It's a benefit gig for Jerry Holland, a Cape Breton fiddler who was diagnosed with bone cancer, so all support greatly appreciated. Please pass the word:-)
