Subject: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 02 Jul 01 - 11:05 AM I just gotta share this. Went to pick up my mail today, and there was a package from Australia. Inside was a letter and a CD from Eric Bogle! His comments on my BEGINNERS LUCK was a very pleasant surprise, and, his approval of my rendition of THE BAND PLAYED WALTZING MATILDA got me all swelled up! Then he tells me that he has adapted some of my stories to fit Australia. I must say, I'm honored. |

Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: catspaw49 Date: 02 Jul 01 - 01:23 PM This speaks not only of your humor and wit but also the appallingly massive lack of good sense and unbelievably poor taste of Bogle. Nonetheless, I send along my best wishes and congratulations. Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Midchuck Date: 02 Jul 01 - 04:44 PM Made you give the Collings back just in time...this would have convinced you you deserved to keep it...whew!... Peter. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 02 Jul 01 - 04:49 PM God, how I love you folks! yes, even you Spaw! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 02 Jul 01 - 07:13 PM It is even more special because it was hand written. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Áine Date: 02 Jul 01 - 07:16 PM Well dang, kendall -- this couldn't happen to a nicer Yankee!! ;-) I'm so happy for you -- pull down the blinds, take the phone off the hook, and dance around the house in glee (like the mad wee Northerner you are)!! We promise not to tell a soul! Well done, my friend, Áine |

Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 02 Jul 01 - 07:17 PM Sorry sweetie, that sort of thing is not allowed in New England. I do like the thought! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Benjamin Date: 02 Jul 01 - 07:21 PM Nice job Kendall! Keep up the good work! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Bill D Date: 02 Jul 01 - 07:49 PM why, it Bogles the mind to get a compliment like that! *grin* |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Bill D Date: 02 Jul 01 - 07:51 PM and yes, a spell checker would have ruined that line....it suggested bugle and ogle...as well as 'boggle' |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 03 Jul 01 - 02:02 PM This kind of feedback is priceless. Especially when you get to wondering if what you are doing is worth a damn. We've all been there, yes? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Amergin Date: 03 Jul 01 - 02:11 PM That is great, Kendall! Makes me jealous...he's one of my favourites.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Bill D Date: 03 Jul 01 - 02:16 PM Kendall, when you mix good music with good humor and throw in one-of-a-kind character, some folks are gonna appreciate it. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 03 Jul 01 - 05:48 PM That has been my experience Bill D. But, it only seems to appeal to the highly intelligent, such as MOST Mudcatters! LOL. Amergin, what keeps you from writing and telling him? All performers welcome that. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Amergin Date: 03 Jul 01 - 05:49 PM I have been thinking on that, Kendall....I even have a mailing address...but I just haven't gotten the nerve up...think I will tonight though... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 03 Jul 01 - 07:25 PM Tell him I sent you LOL |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Gypsy Date: 03 Jul 01 - 11:14 PM Yay!!!!!! Nothing like compliments from one you admire. Congratulations, Kendall! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 04 Jul 01 - 01:28 AM Way to go, Kendall! I wonder how Down East stories sound with Australian slang in a Glasgow accent! They work really well with a Belfast accent, I can tell you that. Ooops! All the best. Seamus |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 04 Jul 01 - 07:46 AM AHA!! I knew it! lookie, humor is universal, and, these stories are not owned by anyone, so, go ahead and use them anyway you please. I have enough to last me the rest of my life.(If I dont live more than two weeks) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: GUEST,JohnB Date: 04 Jul 01 - 12:32 PM I was right then, at the Old Songs Saturday night Song Circle, I pointed you out to my wife and said "he's pretty good too" JohnB |

That's great news Kendall,congradulations! DB. |

Subject: RE: BS: Pleasant surprises From: kendall Date: 04 Jul 01 - 04:42 PM I really appreciate every one of you who like what I do, and, Eric Bogel is no more important to me than any of you. His feedback is very much appreciated, but, so is yours. |
