Hey P.J

Looks like I'm overdure for my annual myspace message!

How was 2008 for you? Was certainly busy for me, I released a CDand did a 2 month tour through Black Market with two other young fellas then finally did a new solo CD and released that in October with plenty of touring in between and since, it's been nuts!

Hope you're well and kicking arse. Still waiting for you to get back to Canberra!

All the best,
Zilber

Hey you! Looong time no see, Broadbeach 06 i think??? How are you? if you're planning on doing some shows in Melbourne we should do some stuff as a double header if you like. How's it all going? I meant to thank you a while ago, it seems you had mentioned me to Michele in North Carolina who runs the Women in Blues festival and she ended up using me on the US compilation cd from that introduction, so THANK YOU! Keep in touch and let me know when you hit Melbourne. I'm coming to Sydney to do the Basement March 7th, so maybe i'll see you then
Blessings,
Andrea

Hey man, I'm layin' a little low at present. I had a nasty motorsickle accident just over a month ago. Got pretty beat up but I'm starting to do some gigs again. Singing hurts with twenty rib fractures and a recently punctured/collapsed lung! But man I'm feeling so lucky just to be here at all! Hope all is well - take care - Mojo.
