Paul Bielatowicz	Jun 8 2007 12:08 PM Hey buddy, I'm doing the last show of the Neal Morse tour (the reason I've been locking myself away for the last few months) on wednesday (13/06). You wanna come? It's gunna be a blast... we're recording a live album... there's a full on jazz section... erm, trying to think of more reasons why you should come... I really think you should experience the power of prog and gain more "clarity" as you so well put it - isn't that what it's all about? ;o)

Joey Elkins	Apr 30 2007 11:59 AM Awwww thanks Wayne :) ... had such great fun doing it with ya! ... thank YOU for throwing me the gig! It really is a sin that we're not doing more gigs together ... we'll have to change that eh?! Even though you were full of flu ... I think you played the best I've ever heard you play! You're block chords were going off and the groove just sat like a rock... your solo's were so melodic and the perfect balance between simple and chops lines. AND you cut Skylark in "A" without so much as a hiccup (guilty face goes here)! More power to you!!! Big Squeezzzzeee J xxx

One of my friends has already commented on your tune! Would definitely like to come visit you, perhaps in the summer? xx
Aneesa Chaudhry	Apr 13 2007 11:53 AM Hi Wayne McConnell! Just thought I'd drop by and let you know about my free performance at the National Theatre on Wednesday 18th April! If you're in London, come along to have a drink, listen to my music and make sure you say hi! If you're not in London, watch out for pics on myspace at the end of next week. Enjoy the weekend. Lots of Love, Aneesa x
