I've become friends with Lauren (Cornflake Girl) and we catch up whenever I'm in Glasgow. I saw her again yesterday when I was there for an Alison Krauss and Union Station gig - wehich was incredible by the way!

You seem to work with the coolest people!! One day, over our inevitable beers, you'll tell me all the people you've done sound for and I'll get totally p****ed with jealously and just drink shots and wonder why my job is so dull!

Yeah, I met up with her, and two other ledgies, summer of 2010, and it was SO MUCH fun! It was literally like we'd known each other our entire lives....we have the same sense of humor!(and that's the ultimate compliment from me!)

Yeah, I guess my job is cool. I got my friends into a show the other day(it was electronic/dj, so I REALLY had NO interest - Skrillex), and my friends were all "did you get to meet him, did you get to meet him???" I said, "yeah, just another day at the orifice". A f*cking DJ? Give me a call, when you develop a talent!!!

Thanks, tonight is going to be so much fun. I'm ESPECIALLY high right now, because I've been haggling with this woman on Craigslist, over a Gretsch guitar(it's brand new, she won it in a contest). I'm on my way to a bank in a few minutes, to get money from my savings, to meet up with her! It's a hollowbody electric, with a Bigsby, and MOST IMPORTANT of all, it's the famous Gretsch orange!!!

I've never met any Ledgies in person. Glad that others are enjoying those friendships, tho.

Whaaaaat?! Luaren didn't mention this when I saw her yesterday - bah! You guys will have a great time! She did mention that you're possibly coming to Edinburgh for the Lindsey gig. Will I see you there?

Me either... meeting people from the internet has always been traumatic for me. So I haven't done it in a long, long time.

Most of the friends I've had, I've met online. I can count on one hand the number of friends that I met any other way. In person, I tend not to talk to people unless they talk to me first. I never know what to say, and I'm always afraid that I'm bothering them.

I've met so many Ledgies I've lost count. Still keep in touch with several.

Why, just this past weekend DrummerDeanna & Big Bad Evil Carrie721 went to a Lindsey show together.

So was Maria's daughter Sara, when we met. She was afraid of "that man from the internet". Within about 5 minutes of meeting me, she was sitting beside me on the couch!

Because I'm just that scary!

If somebody doesn't want to meet me or be friends with me because they're afraid of "people from the Internet" or from the Ledge specifically, then that's their issue, not mine. I'm (generally) a good person, and I sort of resent someone saying they can't associate with me because "Ledgies do crazy things" or "everyone on the Internet is a serial rapist."

Right. Well, she was a little girl, and I think I'd be a little apprehensive, too!

Yet Maria's driving 4 hours today, so that we can bar hop all night tonight!

We're gonna rip this town a new one!!!

She's a KID. I'm glad she feels concerned- most people don't and end up regretting it later.

Okay, geez. Sorry. I didn't realize she was a kid. Excuse the hell out of me.

Many of my Ledgie collisions have been among the highlights of my year. Fleetwood Mac fans are as fun as they are insane, and they are bat****.

You are just attracting swarms to Durham castle. Have fun!

How is Big Bad Evil Carrie? Her presence is missed.
