Hi there :)

It's been a while since I've posted anything to you.

I have been traveling so much I have forgotten what my own home and town looks like. I've gotta tell you, the support from you guys and the mail has been overwhelmingly good for my soul.

It's an incredible relief to see and know that the actual music is effecting so many of you in the exact way I would want it too, the way certain music effects me.

YOU are the ones it may and does concern and it's for you that I do this and for no other reason.

To know that it's actually happening makes me feel I have done what I have set out to do and there's nothing more validating than that.

I've only recently at some on the recent radio shows met and shaken hands with the people who have been moved by the music in some way and it was truly worth every bit of energy, work and time I have put into doing this and it gave me what I needed to continue on. That along with those who come here and those who write me is a gift I can only at this time repay by writing to you here and telling you truly from every inch of my soul.. THANK YOU and I LOVE YOU RIGHT BACK!!

Hopefully I will get a chance to meet and see some of you on the upcoming tour. Otherwise, nothing here or that you send goes unnoticed or unappreciated.

I'll write again soon.

P.S. And don't think for a minute I don't check out the comments on the board when I can. With the exception of a couple of sick weirdos, I get a big kick out of seeing what you all have to say :) :)

Hello (Finally) from the road..(sorry it took so damn long)

The tour is almost over and I have to say one of the major highlights of the whole thing was meeting so many of YOU.

Each and every one of you in your own ways moved me or inspired me quite profoundly. You know.. I didn't do this for money (I actually made NO money so far on the tour or with the record) and I'm not doing it for fame (blah blah blah ..we know that I suppose, I've said it). I did it to inspire, reach or move people through music and meeting the people that it's had that effect on most definitely made me feel that every ounce of energy I put into this was more than worth it!

Your words, your mere presence, your stories, gifts and long drives to get to a show, money spent, time off from work or children, ALL of it moved and inspired me right back and I wanted to thank you from every inch of my soul for that.

It truly made me want to keep giving right back and continue to work hard to make that happen.

As far as the recent critics and reviews go!!?? (Forgive me now as the above poetic and heartfelt nature of this letter is about to take a drastic turn as the subject matter has.) lol..

There is a famous and dauntingly true quote which is as follows:

"Those who can, DO and those who can't, CRITICIZE!"

Basically, there are little spiteful larva out there who don't have the ability or creativity or BALLS to create and do something and some other sorry ass soul gave them the authority to then rip apart anyone else who does have (at the very least the balls) and so they live their miserable existence doing so, and there we have in a nutshell, a "CRITIC"...

Although I'll be the first to say that HELL YES I need more time and experience with all of this , I'm certainly no veteran, that is precisely WHY I'm touring in the first place. I've only just started, I don't let them go deep.

I know who and WHAT they are. Anyone who makes money off of ripping apart someone else's creativity is a sorry soul who will in the end live and die a lonely and miserable existence!

HA! Okay .. I'm done with that RANT now (but that was fun). More importantly, I listen to YOU and that's all that matters.

Thanks again for everything, I ADORE YOU!

Love always.....

LMFP:)

PS..Tyler, Luke and my brother are beside themselves that they have some fans out there.. I told Tyler I am going to have to get a less attractive man next time doing security!

Kidding...I wont do that to you ladies:)

And one last thing , I recently discovered the other day a book I've been reading while on tour that you ladies out there who may have a blemished love life might find as amusing as I did, it's called "How To Spot A Bastard By His Star Sign". It's by Adele Lang & Susi Rajah.

Talk to you again soon.
