"One of the best singer/songwriter/guitarists I've heard in ages...Justin Roth is a flat out talent. Roth rivals a young Willy Porter...His vocal delivery is smooth. His guitar playing is extraordinary." - The Journal Times, Racine, WI

Good Evening Justin, I hope you enjoy your visit to Hinsdale this week-end. I was excited to see you would be there this weekend. That is the church my daughter was married in less than 2 years past. I may yet be able to catch you there one of the days. I hope. I hope they truly realize what a great time they will be having with you in their company. If not they will after you're finished. Have a great stay in Hinsdale. Grand People There. Safe Journey. Lovingly, Maricet
Sweet you are my friend Justin, as is your music to the ear and to my spirit and so I will share it with others on my page and may it brighten their day also. Drop by anytime, Maricet
I'd love to come on the 4th, it's my birthday so it'd be a dream come true. Alas, I'll be coming back from South Dakota. :) Have fun though, maybe I'll make it someday. :)
Thank you so much for the friendship. I really like your music, and it's a pleasure to meet you here! Greetings from Denmark, Lene www.nexus-univers.dk
Hey Justin...thanks for trading CD's with me. Savior is really grabbing me, Crush sounds like a David Wilcox song, Shine because of Colorado of course, and The Weaver of Avoca is an awesome instrumental. And that's just the first pass! Maybe you'll be through this way before we all reconvene again next year!
Thank goodness you have Trembling Like a Train on your player cuz I had a real hankering to hear it after my train ride home from Denver. :D Keep up the good stuff!
