I'd like to see at least one show on the American tour. See if you can grab Mistress Meow Meow. :)

your blog makes me feel like a stalker--i want to read more and more and more and i want to know every fucking thing there is about amanda fucking palmer. Well--not really--just what she wants to share.
saw you in london, at Koko, i was begging my brother to let me stay and maybe, just maybe kidnap you and keep you at home, but it was not to be done.
thanks for the music, thanks for the news and thanks for, well, everything.
a fan :)

Loving the new album, Amanda. Sh*t news that the label isn't giving the support they can. I've been bigging you up on the Marillion message boards, turns out that there's a few fans there (and now a few new one's ;-)) They're old, they're as uncool as f*ck and they're brilliant, but they have their own careers in their own hands - all you need is a fan base that cares enough - I think yours do.

Anyhows, you may find this of interest if you ever actually get any spare time:

(which doesn't even begin to talk about the pre-release of the latest album to the P2P networks...)

Happiness IS the road. oh, and look right!

'That was the part that was supposed to sound like Belle and Sebastian.'

:) Well-played.

One of my coworkers is Jason Webley's younger evil twin. It's pretty funny. I think I'll ask him if he's a fan, some time.

...

This isn't your way to try and get us to shell out our moneys on purchasing a concert ticket, is it?

It already worked, if that's the case. Got mine a couple months back, actually. Just as well; I don't mind stickin' it to the label, anyway. Yes, you have fans who definitely enjoy your work and want to give support however they can. Album sales, that's mainly for the suits, and we know it. The performance is where it all really, really is. Art, emotions, hippie-ass-togetherness. That's what gets the shit stirring, for folks like us.

It also helps that you actually treat your fans like the people that they are, and not just a bunch of nameless drones there to give wanton praise. Someone mentions someone from the message board, and you know them by their first name. How...very interesting.

It means a lot.

...

Although I'm definitely in for ponies. Pony pony pony.

Dearest Amanda!

Your Koko, Lodon show was positively MADE of wow!
All my friends bailed on me so I invited my mother along, she's now a proper Rock Chick and can't wait to see you again.

Anyway, we took some photos during the gig and there's a few good ones http://viewmorepics.myspace...

Enjoy lovely, talented lady!

p.s. hope your foot's on the mend

I need to thank you too. It can't be that I'm the only one who is inspired by your work, your enthusiasm, and your kindness. I never really believed in myself and I was really scared to perform. When I saw you in Utrecht, and saw how you enjoyed doing such a thing, I realized I had to see it as a something enjoyable, rather than something to fear. You were sometimes being silly, sometimes being serious, a lot of times being funny, but you were just you when you were standing or sitting on the stage.

And it sounds so obvious, but it's not for me. So thank you for inspiring me :).

Oh, and I want to recommend a book. There's a big chance you've already read it, but I love it so I'll recommend it anyway: I never promised you a rose garden, by Joanne Greenberg.

Without reinvention there is nothing, as long as your changing for yourself and no one else. Frankly Amanda we will love you through good and bad changes, whenever or however often they might be. Can't wait to see you at the U.S tour!

Do you still check your Amanda fan letters e-mail? I know im not the only one whose sent you some Obama goodness and lots of loving!

hey amanda,

fuck the record company! you're amazing, and your fans will always be behind you because you've always been so real, and you've always understood the importance of making that connection with your audience. we'll keep supporting you and flagging this album wherever we can. i know what all my friends and family are getting for xmas this year!

All that you said about the love and gratitude you feel for the fans is reciprocated, because a lot of us feel to a certain extent we owe you OUR lives. you say that you would have nothing without each person that buys a ticket to your show. I feel that i would have an awful lot less without your music, your words and your art.

p.s can you save a couple of ponies for australia?? :-)
