“You’re a natural”

[Lynn T. Newcomb]

A lot of covers only have Garfunkel’s melody, so I’d really love to hear MLT do it with Simon’s harmony.

I got mine a week ago.  I think they (MLT) did say it would probably ship faster to the U.S. than other parts of the world because of Covid.

I was a Beatle fan from ’64 to ’66, courtesy of my sister, then I became a Simon and Garfunkel fan.  I didn’t return to the Beatles until their breakup in 1970.  I’d have to say that if they’d split up too much sooner than that I never would have given them another look.  So I agree with Thomas.

That’s kind of what I figured.  Apparently “Viggo” is also not unusual.  LOL.  When I joined the club, I was told to expect a personal welcome from one of the twins.  Yours should be coming soon.

[Lynn T. Newcomb]

Welcome to the club, Leif.  My own discovery of the Twins resulted from a “suggestion” from FaceBook after I displayed an interest in contemporary female singer/songwriters.  They are the first and, so far, only YouTubers I decided to support financially.  If I decide to support others it will be in large part because of how positive MLT has made this experience.

I don’t know how common your surname is, but I have to ask,  are you related in any way to Viggo?

I got to see Rich Mullins in concert a few months before he died.  I Almost bought a hammer dulcimer because of him, but I really don’t have that kind of talent or the patience it would take to learn.

We had similar conditions here in Nebraska although not quite as impressive.

I generally get emotional watching any flash mob.  Beethoven’s Ninth,  Stairway to Heaven, Cup Song, etc.  So, yeah.

[Lynn T. Newcomb]

I BIG thank you to Charles Adams for giving them the green towel providing us with a disappearing twins trick.  Almost like it was planned.  I had thought of sending them something but opted for a monetary gift instead.  I’ll definitely send them something for their birthday.  Perhaps they’ll do another live stream around then.

[Lynn T. Newcomb]

Close, but no cigar.  The last 50 took less than half an hour.

[Lynn T. Newcomb]

“When I’m Sixty-four” will hit 2.5M views in a day or two.

Who wants to chip in and get the Twins a trombone for Christmas this year?
