Hey man, thanks for your message. We all had such a ball over in Tassie, thanks to you all pretty much. I wrote a little blog to retain thanks for posterity style. Let us know if you're planning any trips to M-Town.
Hope to see you again, Tom

Hello there!

Well sydney has my lady friend & my new house & soon it will have all my worldly possessions... It also has a smelly cat that wont stop sitting on me.
but I must admit, this big city living is sure making me hungry for another expedition to your side of town.

I'm planning on doing a big tour when my new album is done & I reckon I might have to take you up on your offer of a spare room!

Show?

Hey thanks mate! Good to hear from you. Your songs are pretty sweet as well. We haven't played any live gigs but we'll let you know if we do in the future. Our new material is sounding even more country-ish, we could have a hobart music scene revolution on our hands.
Got to get someone to learn pedal steel!

Hey Sam J Nicholson,

We'd love you to come along to the Longley Tavern this saturday night to see Firebird (from melbourne, with members from Nekromantix and Brian Setzer orch) and ourselves. They've got an awesome outdoor stage, wood fires for keeping warm, great atmosphere and FREE entry. Only fifteen minutes out of town up through South Hobart, will be well worth the trip!

Hey Sam J Nicholson,

Come along and see this Sydney all girl trio rock the roof off the place, supported by 'Bone Rattlers' in our first show since the falls festival, also UK rockabilly legend J.Iscariot and local surf trio The Swelltones. This will definately be of the shows most worth seeing this year!


If you've already replied to the invite.....thanks!

Hola!!! Escuha nuestro último tema “EXTRADITEMOS A FRANZ FERDINAND” lo podemos hacer peor, pero no mejor. Devolvamos la actitud al lugar que le corresponde!!!
DISCULPEN NUESTRA ARROGANCIA!!! Y PERDONEN LAS MOLESTIAS…


Letra:
Vuelve a suceder / Tu careto en radio 3
No soporto más / esa pose demencial
Y te crees especial / porque vas con Ordovás
Te crees especial / porque al Nasti vas a entrar

Retomo el control / pero suena tu canción
Te deberían Ahorcar!!! / y te crees especial
porque vas con Ordovás / Te crees especial
porque al ocho y medio vas a entrar!!!
Franz Ferdinanz no me vas a engañar
Ey, Tú Franz ferdinand no me vas a engañar!!

Thanks a bunch for your message, really appreciate it... Will check out Jon Brions music later, and I heart huckabees. I love the Wilco DVD. I wish i had a loft like theirs...
Brighton Tazmania....Mmmm. would be nice to get outta town for a while... I'd love to collaborate with you. Long distance music making, sounds really interesting. Keep me updated It'd be great to work something out. Keep in touch. Good luck with your exams.
Jack P.S really liking the Slide guitars on your new one.
