Brother mine. How have you been? Are you in Europe right now? I forgot when you were leaving. In any case, it was great to see you in Austin. I was truly blown away with the show. Always keep the faith, and always stay true to who you are. You can't go wrong when you do. Take care and keep in touch. Cheers...
Just dropping in to say hello. It was really nice to hear you on NPR..or anywhere for that matter. Hopefully we'll hook up in your territory in the not too distant future. Miss you already.
Hi, I heard your interview on NPR and fell in love with your music. I was on my way home from work, working all night I was in a pretty bad mood, and then I heard you play "In the Pouring Rain" and I felt such joy. I know that is kind of sappy. Anyway I am glad you are on Itunes. Thanks(:
