I very much enjoyed the show and always love seeing you guys! But, more urgently, I have been listening repeatedly to your album and it is EXCELLENT. I'm studying your woven lyrics to songs I already loved live. But with the album, the are evolving in my head and deepening my affection. I forced Anne to borrow it so she could hear how amazing it was and I spent a lot of our practice today gushing over it. Sincerely, thank you for sharing your beautiful music with me.

I know i always have fun when i am around The Virgo 9.

dear sequoya,

I have listened to your CD and recognize many of these songs, but am still blown away by the quality of them and that big folksinger voice that comes out of Bonnie!

I think I am in love with Satellite because I love spurned lover songs. And I think I am in love with Rocket because I love the vocal harmonies and the effects you use on the chorus. Maybe it's just the space songs.

Thank you guys so much for coming out and taking such rad videos.

CANT WAIT FOR TROIKA! Maybe we can help out on backing vocals for Rocket? <3
