Hi Mark, How’s Everything? Let’s be honest, we know you’re busy and
have lots of choices. We’re hoping you’ll spend a few minutes and give our new
song a spin… As always, we thank you for your time and opinion. It means a lot
to us. Johnny
Thanks for your friendship and kind appreciation! Your songs are sounding fantastic, looking forward to catching you at a gig very soon - last time I saw you live was in Bridgetown in '98!
Good to meet you too. Let me know if you're doing a gig up this way, and I'll come along, or maybe you'll get up to see one of ours. They're good, I promise!
Thanks for listening, Mark, we really appreciate it. And when I praised your bowling, it might have sounded like I didn't enjoy your batting, which is definitely not true!
Cricket will miss you, but it looks like you'll be as successful at soul! We remember your viscious swinging deliveries as much as your batting, but now we'll remember your songs.
