Hi Bob, hope you have fun in the club. I like looking at club members bio’s and I seen you are the only one besides me (that I’ve seen) to list Noddy Holder as a favorite singer. Awesome, a lot of people only remember Noddy and Slade when “IT’S CHRISTMAS”. Lol. They were a great band but their music was hard to find in the States. Have a good time here.

Hi Tim, I think I did cheat and look at the pictures when I first got the calendar but with my memory I forget things I did 5 minutes ago. The strange thing about the calendar is it starts with Monday as the first day of the week which is strange for me. Do the rest of the U.S. members think this is strange or confusing? I didn’t know Euro calendars were that way. It took me a while to get used to it.

Hi Marc, welcome to the club. I’m in Wisconsin where it is a beautiful sunny day. Hope you enjoy the club.

I did join the Intergalactic Club only a couple days ago. One of their posts popped up in my Facebook feed and when I seen it was started Jacki Hopper I had to check it out. Seems like fun and hey, it’s more MLT stuff. But I too find it curious and actually, a little disappointing that there are like 2,000 people in that club and only around 700 here. Why?. Is paying $13 a month enough to keep people away? Hell, I find that much change in my pants pocket every month. I used to spend $16 dollars a day on cigarettes until I finally gave up that filthy habit after 40 years. I know a lot of people need to save every penny these days but man, that is such a small price to pay for all the content and just the warm feelings and smiles and even a little bit of pride in helping these amazing artists continue their beautiful journey.

This is an interesting conversation Jung, I been reading all the comments and really kind of wondering why I joined the MLT Club. I didn’t know it at the time but I think I was looking for something very special. I am subscribed to Amy Slattery’s YouTube channel and if you have never listened to her you should check out her channel. She is by no means in the same league as MLT but her Dad is a big Beatles fan and Amy records all the singing and instruments herself and uses the correct “Beatle” instruments. Her and her Dad duo on some of them. Well Amy has a couple videos where she was at the Cavern Club and singing and playing bass with the MonaLisa Twins. I watched these videos a few times and some of the Twins videos started popping up so I started watching them and it’s been kind of like a tidal wave ever since. According to the receipts I bought my first CD “Live at the Cavern Club” Oct. 2 2022. By December I had 6 CD’s and had watched probably hundreds of videos. They were playing in my car, On my PC, on my phone, I couldn’t get enough. I was also watching all of their Q and As and interviews on YouTube and just fell in love with them. When I watched the advent calendar reaction video of their first concert and earlier videos I wanted to join the club just to see the rest of the reaction videos and the Christmas Livestream which was so much fun. Needless to say I am still falling. Something about the whole experience that keeps me coming back and while I look forward to each Friday, I like to come in and see what you all are talking about and maybe chiming in. It’s funny because sometimes it has nothing to do with Mona and Lisa but most of the time it does. I like looking at all the pictures and reading all the comments and even doing a puzzle or two and listen to the Jukebox. All of this typing and I still haven’t said WHY?, why I joined the MLT Club. Maybe it’s because I was missing something. September 2014 I lost my two closest sisters and my wife all in one month. In 2020 I lost a very close older sister and my closest brother. I’ve always enjoyed life, and still do but I think I just needed something special to be a part of that makes me feel good and this club certainly does that. I love everything about it and hope to be an active part of it until I die. I’m thinking of taking a stereo and some CDs with me when I go so I can listen to Mona and Lisa in Heaven, I wonder if they are wired for 110 volts or 220? hmm.

Congratulations!! I hope you have many more.

Hi Jacki, The air quality here in Wisconsin doesn’t seem to be as bad as Canada and Eastern US but I know some people with breathing issues that are having a difficult time. It was quite hazy here last week. I hope and pray for rain to put out those fires. We could use a lot of rain also, been a very dry spring. Take care.

Hi Mike. I’m from Wisconsin. I worked a year in Marinette WI along the shores of Lake Michigan. Beautiful place. Hope you enjoy the club. Welcome

Johnnypee and Chris, As hard as these four work on creating fantastic music and amazing videos as well as running every aspect of the whole business and do it all in such high quality, I am astonished that they can put out as much content as they do. I asked the question in the recent Q&A about how long it took to produce the WHY? album. The answer was around 5 years and Mona said they are not the fastest writers which I think is fantastic. You can not get the quality of songs they do by rushing things. Hence my comment on that question about not being pressured by a record company showing up in the quality of their work. With their comments about having other songs that didn’t make it on WHY? hopefully it won’t take another 5 years but if it does I am fine with that. If the next album is anywhere close to WHY? or even Orange it will be well worth the wait. I don’t think a new Duo Sessions album is too far off as well as a new Beatles and More. Some great things are coming I believe.

Thanks for the kind words Jung, I guess when you are blessed to live this long you end up losing a lot of the people you love. It leaves a big hole that’s hard to fill. Maybe you answered my question as to why I joined the MLT club. It might be a little replacement for the people I’ve lost. I can come here and talk about music and life with like-minded people. I really enjoy being here and respect the ones like you and Jackie that have been here a while. I wished I had found the Twins sooner but I can’t change that so I’ll just look forward to what these girls do next. Peace and Love to all the members of the MLT Club and the Intergalactic Fan Club.

Thanks Jacki, I totally understand that your group was started for fun as a fan club for The Twins. When that popped up on my FB feed I was like, oh Jacki Hopper started a fan club I’m gonna check it out. When I read the description I seen how it’s been a club for a long time and there were around 2,000 members. That’s awesome, good for you. I did see a lot of MLT Club members involved in the Intergalactic group too so I know it’s going to be fun being in that club as well. I’ve never joined a fan club before, wait I did join the KISS Army back in the day but that Club was just a way for Gene Simmons to squeeze more money out of the kids. Lol, I was pretty young (and dumb). I’m still dumb but not so young. I hope Ottawa is nice this time of year and I hope you have a wonderful summer.

All My Lovin’ at 700,000 views, that’s awesome. I like all the videos from their first show.

Lol, you just leave that line blank. Or enter NA, not applicable.

Hi JP, when I first seen that video I did a double take. This was made in 77 and I believe AC/DC started around 73. It was probably just a joke or tribute but who knows. George looks a lot like Angus and they all had a sense of humor.
