Don't you think this whole MySpace thing has lost its luster? I want to reclaim the joy, so I'm putting a few "suggestions" out there, and hope you all will consider honoring them:
If you want to request my friendship, it means you:
a. Are my friend
b. Enjoy the work I've done in the past
c. Enjoy the work I am doing in the present
d. Are interested in hiring me to produce or work on your project.
So, when you request my friendship, if you don't have time to send a little note, just simply put down a letter (a-d), or combination of letters (like c&d). It's easier than deciding on the veggies for your Subway sandwich, and will eliminate clutter from life (both yours and mine).
If you are requesting my 'friendship' to sell me a pay to play gig, or want to sell me anything, then here's a simple request: don't.
Hi Peter! Great to stay in touch. The Luxury Wafers recordings of One Trick Pony sound great, we're super excited, THANK YOU! Hope you and the lovely family have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Hey there, I've been so flat out since I've been here I haven't had time to contact you and I'm now leaving to London next week. Will call you when I get back. Till then I hope your well...

Hey Peter. How are you? Long time since the Salvation Theatre days in HLLYWD. I saw you and Jake Labotz there. I was so inspired i went on to record (and seriously butcher) his song "The way i came up". (it's actually on my track wheel) Next time i'm trying it acoustic like the master himself. Keep it Real.
