You’re most welcome, Bill! It’s kept us on our toes and on track to release something every week and we love it. We’re glad you do, too!
Thanks,

Hi Paul,
That mental image of Beethoven enjoying “Waiting For The Waiter” is quite something. How great would it be to sit down over a “cuppa” with any of these guys!
Growing up in Vienna has definitely left its mark on us in terms of our appreciation for classical music. It’s never something we were particularly interested in but the fact alone that the music of these greats has always been part of our culture made us familiar with a lot of music that perhaps otherwise would have never even entered our radar.
We know there is still a vast world of classical music out there to explore, and there will be a time and place in our lives to delve into it more!
“The Third Man” soundtrack is an absolute classic. Tell me you can listen to that without smiling like an idiot! 😀
Have a great day! -
Guilty as charged! We talked it out over a bowl of cereal afterwards though and she forgave me, so we’re all good again! 🙂

My dreams usually make zero sense.
They are all over the place, people morph into animals, timelines jump around and I’m bouncing through magical, mystical, bizarre scenarios. It’s very rare that any of my dreams have a comprehensive storyline. Quite to the detriment of whoever has to sit through my retelling the next morning! It’s like listening to a story made up by a toddler on drugs.
So no, I don’t really have any recurring dreams although they quite often star the same people, usually old classmates from primary school that I never think about during the day. Go figure.I’d love to dream of UFOs! It would be something that makes sense for once 😉

Hi John!
Haha, you’re right! We actually used to switch to German for both of these songs during some of our live shows. Half of the audience would stare at us in confusion and the other got a real kick out of it … depending on how big of Beatles fans they were! 😉
I wonder if we ever recorded a live version like that but I haven’t come across one recently. If we did, we might post it one day but it would take some digging through the archives.

Hi Rick,
Since the Cavern Club runs on a tight schedule when it comes to the bands that are lined up to play every night, they don’t really allow encores. If every act would extend their set by a song or two it would completely throw off the schedule so we made it a habit to just stick to our regular set length or rather schedule the encores into our existing setlist.
To be honest, it felt a little weird at first but the audience was usually really understanding. We’d try to come out right after the show to talk to audience members anyway so it wasn’t like we’d just disappear into nothingness.
But yes, it’s definitely unusual the way it is handled there but makes sense if you have constant live music on one stage.Hope you’re well!

Hi Timothy!
Thanks for that super kind “hello” – we’re so happy that you are enjoying what we’re doing and that you came across our music last year! Thanks for sticking around even after the Advent Calendar 🙂
We appreciate all the compliments and send all the best to Mississippi. The state that Elvis was from, right? I hope we’ll get to visit one day!
Hope you’re having a groovy week! -
Hi Leif!
Welcome to our music, the MLT Club and this groovy community here. “Get Back” and “I’m Down” would both be so much fun to do live as a full band, I hope we’ll get a chance to do them in the future. Glad you decided to stop by and support our music – many thanks from all of us! 🙂 -
Now that’s funny! We haven’t checked their website in a while so we haven’t seen these new videos. It’s interesting how they keep developing and growing with this business and we will keep checking the site to see where we end up playing next. 😉

RIP Gerry 🙁 At the moment we don’t have any plans to cover a Gerry and the Pacemakers song in the near future (too many other plans) but maybe one day. He is sadly missed and we feel lucky that we got to meet him a few years ago. He was very kind and gracious.

Hi Ron!
We dispatched the gift calendars on December 29th (the post office probably processed them on January 1st or 2nd) so they are well on their way by now. Has yours arrived since you posted the question?
Annoyingly, we had quite a lot of delays with deliveries recently, and parcels sometimes take 4 or 5 times as long as they usually do. It’s frustrating but they usually all arrive eventually. Please give it a little longer but do get in touch should nothing have arrived by mid-February! -
Hi Andy,
Your CD should have definitely gotten signed, we apologise that it wasn’t and will send you a replacement tomorrow! It must have slipped through the cracks somehow!
And that is a very sweet idea to give away the duplicate CDs to the hospice shop. ♥

Hi Bill, We did indeed take a couple of days off over the holidays to relax and unwind a little. We put down the phones, didn’t look at the inboxes and just spent lots of time together, consciously not talking about upcoming projects for once.
We all love working on our goals, planning and constantly doing things but after a year as busy as 2020 was for us, we truly feel the benefits of recharging our batteries and making ourselves do a bit of “nothing” for a few days.
I got some new watercolours for Christmas so I tried those out, looked after my house plants, journalled about 2020 and we played some games and took some walks together.
That’s how we spent most of the days between Christmas and New Year and now we are ready to tackle 2021! I hope you also got to relax over the holidays!

Hi Rob,
We’re glad you liked the live stream – we had such a fun time with it! The live concert idea is definitely something we’ve been thinking about and we will see if we can incorporate one into our schedule at some point. No promises but it’s something in our pool of possible projects.
As far as I can remember, Nick & Simon have never entered my radar but I just listened to a few songs on Spotify and they’re sounding really nice! It’s just a shame I don’t speak Dutch! I’ll listen to some more in a bit but thanks for the recommendation. Simon & Garfunkel are not a bad influence! 😉
Have a groovy day!
