Dear God: The lady reading this is beautiful, classy and strong, and I love her. Help her live her life to the fullest. Please promote her and cause her to excel above her expectations. Help her shine in the darkest places where it is impossible to love. Protect her at all times, lift her up when she needs you the most, and let her know when she walks with you, She will always be safe. Love you Girl!!!! Now you're on the clock!!!! In 9 minutes something will make you happy. ;-) But you have to tell 9 sisters you love them, including me.
It was fantastic to hear you the other night at Showbox SODO, especially considering the extra challenge of performing under the influence of cruddy yuckiness (or whatever the proper clinical term is.)
Carrie you still rule my dear. Was watching some old Hammerbox on you tube last night. That music still makes me want to jump around and play guitar with it. Hed, Simple Passing and Trip are my favorites. Hope all is well. Hugs from Wisconsin. Just Like Sunshine. Jim
Thanks Carrie for a great live show last night at the Mural. All of Goodness put their heart & soul into another amazing performance. It only makes me sad to think that seeing such shows will only be an occasional thing (but I'll take what I can get). I even turned on your music to a friend of mine (better late than never). I picked up your solo album at the show & am exited to get it spinning in my cd player. Thanks for all of the amazing music over the years. We are lucky to have Goodness & all of it's players, together or separate. Enjoy the rest of the summer!
Thanks for your friendship! I just love your voice. Hammerbox was the first thing that hit me. But got to say, your new songs are great! Rokrok. -zargo-
