Emma	Jan 20 2008 4:03 AM Awesome show on Friday guys! Best early 18th B'day present ever, lol. Sad that i won't see you again...
The Candy Twins	Jan 19 2008 5:36 AM Hope the gig was great last night. Couldn't hear much of it inside a three hour traffic jam on the M1, so gave up and turned round but listening to your stuff on the MP3 at least stopped total road rage.
Joe	Jan 18 2008 3:06 AM see u guys tonight have good one!
Bill	Jan 14 2008 9:31 PM I hope you kids get over this silly "going my own way" phase, and do the right thing. It was love at first listen for me, and I hope to hear you together again in future years. If not: love you just the same.
The Candy Twins	Jan 14 2008 1:44 PM I've just bought my tickets for Sheffield having only discovered you yesterday through Bloodline on some iTunes compilation. So I hope you'll play it! Love your sound. Beautiful music and sad your 'hiatusing' just as I've found you.
Yasmin	Jan 13 2008 6:32 AM I am so pleased that Chris kept me in the loop with your gigs, and that I came to see you at Bush Hall. What a gig! You have such a loving audience, I was so impressed. If you decide to part i can see you will be sorely missed, and I can also see why.. thanks for a fab Friday evening. I've just ordered one of your albums and look forward to hearing Science again...xxx
