Glen and Mar: Last night's show was perfect. Thank you so much for coming to town and delivering such a great performance. I have a name for the new song you played: Mirriam's Waltz. The new CD/DVD is fantastic as well. I was so happy to hear it live last night.

Unfortunately due to some unforseen circumstances we had to push back the release date of Strict Joy to the 9th of November in Korea. On the other hand though we have the links for Korean fans where they can preorder the album now. Please see below...

Boston show was - well - "strict joy" :) We actually were heading back to our car and happened by you/your crew loading the bus up and got to say "Great show" to the drummer :) Humble seeming folks, amazing talent - purely joyful mix. Hope you're enjoying your success!! :)

I went to both the Boston show and the Providence show. I loved them both!! The sets were nearly identical, except the Providence show was a bit shorter, perhaps because Marketa was feeling under the weather (according to Glen, who I met afterwards!!!). It is a weekend I will never forget.

We saw them at Lupo's and it was amazing! Did not know that Mar was under the weather - it was a well-rounded show but I certainly could have gone for more!

Thanks for the great show at Amoeba records in L.A. on Wednesday! And also thanks so much for meeting my friend Xander and his family and a big thanks to Glen for letting Xander play his guitar! Xander is an amazing little boy who is on the autism spectrum. I am blessed to know him and his wonderful family and I was really really touched and can't express how wonderful you guys were to him and his family! You guys are the best :) And your music isn't bad either ;)
