Hello Friendly Rich, just wanted to mention how much I loved the show the other night. I've been listening to the new album all day, Friendly Fire is proabably one of my favourite tracks off the CD. I'm glad you opened for the Dresden Dolls, it corresponded very nicely with all the performances. Have a nice day! ~Angela.

Hey Richard,

You're one crazy star.
Enjoying your Lollipop People shows. (When's Naked Marvin going to do another guest appearance?)

Have an awesome 2008!

Evening all...or morning. Really depending on when you read this. To the point: I wandered myself over to your page and noticed in passing that you'll be playing a concert Jan 4...a concert that I will be attending! Hurrah! Long time no see. I've missed you guys like a snail misses slime. I hope you'll have a merch table of some manner...I needs me some compact musical discs! And who orders over the internet nowadays? That's madness.
