This was sent to me the other night. It’s stuff like this that keeps me alive somedays.
“Rob and Heather,
I saw you last night at the George Washington Book Store But It’s Really a Restaurant place last night. I don’t know exactly what it is about the music industry that’s so fucked up that you 4 don’t have a record deal yet, but stick with it. I said I know you guys (and lady) will go far, and I meant it. That’s the second time I’ve heard you…and wow..is all I can say. ilyaimy produces music like I have never heard. Heather, with your powerful drum and blurred hands you tap into something primal…something that moves one to action. Rob with your guitar and vocals lead the show with energy and charisma that is genuine. The two of you together deliver a show that is full of energy, laughter, and love. You deserve a bigger stage. You definitely have something to offer.I wanted to say how much I respect you two for putting it all on the line for your dream. I know how it feels to wake up in the morning suddenly wondering if you made the right decision…remember, it’s all ways darkest before the dawn. Stay the path, please. The world needs good music just as much as it needs good politics or good technology. Your music reminds us that we have souls.
God Speed. – Tommy “
Thank you thank you thank you!
Asheville by daylight is a good city, but hot and highly reflective. The cats have wanted to Love us extensively… or so I thought… turned out Mia really just wanted my chair. We’ve wandered around a lot of the day, but are simply tired of being out in the sun and have come into the Westville Pub really, really early and are feeling bad about not ordering any food. If it was a coffeehouse, yup – we’d be munching on something, or nursing expensive coffee drinks or something – but in a bar… well… ick. And everything else on this strip is closed. I’m a little disappointed, but we DID get strings and we DID see some attractive women and one really happy, freshly-shaved husky. Still, what I’d really like is AC and a nap.
