Absolutely there with you on the RT geekery. Van misID, well … at least no one had to prove they had legal standing.

Was that too bleak?

Wish I could have been there, but I won’t lie, it wasn’t bad being in Groningen seeing Neil and Van. Between sets tens of thousands of people got to see your mug:

So bummed I missed the show. Still in tears about it. You and Dave are my two all time California musical faves—up there with Van and Jerry! Thank you for the good musical times. Oh how we need you right now—more than ever!

Love you even more for your RT and Fairport Convention references.

Head north my friend to Duluth, Mn next time you venture to our great state. Would love to see you, and any configuration of your bandmates rocking Sacred Heart Music Center.

2.5 hr drives one way on a week night to St. Paul are rough on this fan (as much as I love the Turf Club as a venue).

Rest up, thanks for all you do!

How great is that? Two massive faves in one dark, smokey, bar parking lot giving me the best belly laugh of the day. Thanks Chuck

Saw you're coming to Groningen again on November 1st. Great news!There will be screaming outrageous fan-behavior and cookies. I'll try not to leave them in the most inconvenient spot on the stage this time. Also, you're all welcome to a home cooked meal prior to or after the show if you want.

Oh man, you and Dave. So many great gigs at Club Cafe over the years watching you two peal the paint of the walls. Looking forward to seeing the Cumbria Shoes at South Park, such a fabulous record!

Whoa. That dude is something. Glad it was a fun day. Off-topic, but formally requesting a cover of "La Cumbia del Amor" at the Cumbia Shoes show in Charlotte. Or maybe just play what you want. I'll keep stalker bride away from you.
