OR ... you want to have me for a HOUSE CONCERT?
I've recently had the chance to do a few house concerts and was reminded of how much I LOVE doing them. They're some of the best shows I do because of the comfortable relaxed atmosphere, and it's a great excuse for folks to organize a get-together and see people they haven't seen in awhile.

So ... the story is this:  I was listening to Life and Limb this afternoon.  Turned it off to listen to R2 and Rich (should I say Ricardo? Terfry) around 5 pm and suddenly, there's a Rob Szabo Life and Limb tune. 

Had to double check that I didn't still have the CD playing ... Deja vu all over again.

Lovely to hear you on the radio and hope the western tour rocked.

Hey Rob,

Ash from the Lydia's Open Stage in Saskatoon... my stereo was in the shop and I just got around to listening to your cd's.... WOW. Beautiful stuff man. I'm a bit musically jaded and things don't move me very often and well... your cd's haven't left my player. Thanks for reinspiring me!

All the best!

Hey Rob: Sorry for the out-loud-laughs last night. I hope they weren't too disruptive. The satire and wit in your lyrics often makes me laugh out loud, but usually I can leave that at home. Oops.

By the by, 'sad and sadder' songs? 'Degrees of sadness'? Well, yeah. Nothing wrong with that. All delivered with a peppy rhythm or chorus. That's lovely irony and part of what makes me want to listen again and again.

Hi Rob: It was great to see you last Wed. evening. Your performance was the highlight of the evening - even according to my unbiased friend!

I hope the tour continues to go well.
