The New Music Machine	Jun 19 2009 5:50 PM We most certainly should!

Hildur Victoria (New music posted!)	Jun 11 2009 10:07 PM Thank you! You as well! -ML of Hildur Victoria
Dexter Wolfe	Jun 11 2009 10:07 PM june 25th or 26th?
Ari Herstand	Jun 10 2009 11:31 PM Hey, how have you been? how's your summer going? Minneapolis has FINALLY warmed up! If you haven't already, please check out my new album, Whispering Endearments, on iTunes and help support us independent musicians... so I can eat! :) Let me know your thoughts! peace, ~Ari
a Singer of Songs	Jun 9 2009 10:57 PM it's funny how sometimes you cross someone's path and enjoy the conversation or sounds or silence shared and then you go on and kind of forget about it all, but not really, because when the paths cross again it all comes back. i remember the joy of listening to your songs for the first time, and it all came back quickly, listening to these lonely songs of yours. thank you for listening and making the effort of holding out your hand. i appreciate it a lot. be well.
Luke Redfield	Jun 9 2009 6:20 PM hey dude, i'm here for a short spell. got a few gigs i've got to promote before heading back to alaska. what was the name of the guy up there??? in other words, no time to promote new shows, but i'd jump on board a gig if you need another act.
Dexter Wolfe	Jun 8 2009 3:31 PM Yeah, that's a great idea. Can you get a show there? I never have before. I have a 3 piece band that I play with now that's called Sky Lion. The myspace is extremely primitive, but the band is coming along. When would you like to play there, or more so, when could we play there?
Kevin Steinman	Apr 2 2009 3:58 AM Hey, <br /> <br />How's it going? I'm excited to let you know that I'm starting my monthy gig at 318 Café in Excelsior on Wednesday April 8th. This will be the first in a series of shows where I play with other singer/songwriters, and Caleb Hawley will join me for next week's performance. I'd love it if you'd consider coming out! 318's food is truly delicious, and it's only 20 miles from downtown Minneapolis :) Hope to see you there! <br /> <br />Peace, <br />Kevin <br />
Dexter Wolfe	Dec 20 2008 5:55 AM well i don't care care so much about playing new places i just want to play hopefully i'll hear from ya soon
Troy Groenke	Dec 26 2008 7:24 AM What about him? He is a nice guy, we got together last week for a little drum talk...
Spiritual Mansions	Feb 21 2009 12:15 AM Nice to meet you too!
Matthew Miller	Jan 12 2009 9:39 PM I actually didn't know who they were. But Bill Mike shops at the co op and we started talking about music, so they kind of found me.
Dexter Wolfe	Dec 18 2008 5:57 AM i'd be very up for that the van goes is kind of out of commision due to tough schedules and stuff, though it's not done for. i'm trying to organize some shows for myself and it'd be cool if we could do a show together have any ideas?
Dexter Wolfe	Dec 15 2008 4:38 AM how are things in the world of arcola?
Peter Bregman	Nov 4 2008 5:14 AM Hey man, I just checked out your songs for the first time. Some really good writing, both lyrically and melodically. Nice job.
Kevin Steinman	Nov 4 2008 10:07 AM Arcola, Happy election day - just dropping in to let you know I'm performing at 318 club Thursday, Nov. 13, at 9:30. $5 cover, all ages show. Hope to see you! Peace, Kevin
Beau Kinstler	Oct 24 2008 7:45 PM Hey! I'm playing a show tonight at the 400 bar in Minneapolis. I'm playing with Martin Devaney, Consolation Champ, and Joey Ryan Doors are at 8 pm. I hope you can make it.
Kevin Steinman	Oct 8 2008 8:08 PM Arcola, Hey, you're invited to a fantastic evening of live local music, this Friday, the 10th of October, at 331 Club in NE Mpls. Music starts at 9:30, and there's no cover! Alicia Wiley opens, my band is on second, and my good friend Jim O'Neill rounds out the show. Awesome venue, hope you can make it. peace, Kevin
The New Music Machine	Sep 19 2008 2:12 PM yes of course! and I believe it's a free show, so you won't have to worry about a cover fee.
The New Music Machine	Sep 19 2008 9:24 PM Yes. You don't have to be a student. And it's free. If you go, make sure to say hi. Cory
haleyfleming.	Sep 16 2008 10:28 PM you better have
Troy Groenke	Aug 5 2008 8:08 PM not too much my man. We should get together and jam, or play a small gig sometime. What do you have going on these next few weeks? you should come check out the enrty show on thursday night. It's with the newish band I play with, I don't think you would have ever seen them. Go indie Sweedish dance rock!
The New Music Machine	Jul 7 2008 10:40 AM Hello, Sorry it's taken a while to get back to you. The CD worked and it's really cool. It reminds me of the jamming we used to do. I'll have to take another listen to get the exact time. I'll leave you another comment later. Peace.
Beau Kinstler	Jun 5 2008 4:23 AM I love it. nice work.
