    Finally got to listening to the album. I think it definitely gets better as you go along--the last 3, 4 songs I think are some of the best on the album, along with Winning Streak. I like his other solo album better upon first listen, but definitely still enjoy this new release--it's Glen, there's really never much to dislike!

    Great film! That filmmaker Myles O'Reilly is stunning, everything he does I'm crazy about. Incredibly talented. Hoping for a Frames 25th anniversary film too - with lots of WHOLE SONG perfomances... one can dream... :)

    Wow, so you saw him "at work" creating his magic! That's an incredible-sounding experience!

    He was on Opie and Jim Norton today on Sirius. Typical awesome Glen even though he was hanging with some guys be probably never heard of.

    He is as chill as it gets and has the best stories.

    Sam Jam check the bar "The Scratcher" in Manhattan on Sun night - Colm from the Frames is playing, and you never know if Glen will show up there or not too. He may not... but he also may... :)

    For those of you who are fans or people curious about Myles work, his site is here http://arbutusyarns.net full of amazing footage from Glen, some frames shows and other bands. I recommend watching the film he made for glens tour called the little big tour of Ireland. But anything really. Myles has a magic eye. Proud to call him my friend.

    Today, she gifted me with a ticket to each of Glen's NYC shows!!!!! I'm floored! Could not be more excited!!

    :) Lucky to have a friend like her, who is not only there for me, likes the same music as me!

    We're even in the process of planning matching Glen-inspired tattoos!
