It was good to see you in My Jewish Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding last night. Good thing I caught sight of you before the giant with big hair sat in front of me and blocked you out for the balance of the show. I really enjoyed the show. I hope it has a long run.
Just to be on the stage with you every night is a dream come true for me. I am constantly inspired by your mastery of the guitar. In fact, it is your life force that keeps me on this mortal coil.
