    What! You were out here last year and I didn't see you? OK now I'm pissed. ;) August is a GREAT time of year to visit.

    I'm definitely at the FTM show again this year; wouldn't miss it!

    I can't make this b/c I'm doing the Pete Seeger show in NYC on the 3rd, but if anyone at CCFA or affiliates is doing a pre-show fundraiser please contact me for donations. I just screened a new batch of 'Master T's' and would love to send some out to help raise $$$.

    Hey if u want to save some cash every time I have gone I have met him before and after the show he is always willing to chat with fans and take pics. Last show at the showbox the rock to vote show with Tom after the show he signed a bunch of photos for me in my car I opend the door and he signed them there in the seat. He is such a great guy. Usually after the show he throws tons of pics out and i have gotten a setlist form all the ones i have been to and the band has signed them. It is up to u man but the shows are always alot of fun I am sure Jamie and I will be there hope u all make it.

    Did you notice at the El corazon aka the off ramp show last August. That alot of people cleared out after FTM performed? We stayed and watched Duff's band, not bad. But he must have seen the crowd had got smaller for his performance. I never knew he was such a tall guy. It was a fun nite and hopefully I can make it back for this show. :) Be awesome if Kristen Ward made a surprise performance. :D

That was a show were i had way to much pbr(cut back my drinking alot since then so i can enjoy the show) and I was rocking in fact shawn took my hat off during there set and wore it for a few songs. Where u there after the show when duff was laoding his equipment in some ghetto looking VW jetta man u think he would still have some money left could of been familys though. He signed some guitars and pics for me anyways hopeully u all make it I dont think we have ever met.

    We got there early and actually saw Duff pull up and park his VW jetta. lol I looked and said that's the dude from GNR. lol My friend took some pics and we said hello. He was very nice and polite and thanked us for coming to the show. Then after a while Mike just comes walking out. :D Just like hey whats up and we talked for a while. It was my first time to Seattle so he was giving names of places to check out. I've met him twice and he just so cool and normal to talk too. I did slip in my Alpine Valley request. He smirked and said he's heard of the place. lol It was such a great time. Maybe will meet. :D
