Current Year Posts | All Posts Date: 08-27-2008 03:25:09 PM Posted by: Zeke | Enjoyed the recent concerts at Chinook Winds, Oregon. (You were kind enough to play my driver's license-induced request: wanted to prove that I flew from KC to hear the Noisemakers!) Your coming through the Midwest, soon, with Ricky Skaggs, but I am more of a Noisemakers guy. You guys come through (KC, Tulsa, etc.) every couple of years, but I needed my "fix." Thanks for playing The Tighten Up and letting JV roll the groove over some fat-back drums. :) Bruce's Reply: Office note: Zeke, look for your request - and many others left onstage - to be included in the latest collages online!

Date: 08-17-2008 12:52:59 PM Posted by: Joyce | Bruce -- Saw you last night at HOB in Atlantic City. Great show as usual. I usually see you when you come through NJ (Red Bank, Asbury Park). Last night was great for me personally because I had my 22 year old son with me. I am a huge fan and he has been hearing your music being played in our home his whole life. He is a musician himself (drummer), always wanted to see you live with the Noisemakers. Thanks for a great night of great music and we look forward to seeing you again on your next stop in NJ. Bruce's Reply: Thanks, Joyce.

Date: 08-17-2008 12:08:46 AM Posted by: FRANCINE CARSON | Bruce, you bring so much joy to so many people with your beautiful music,I just wanted to thank you.Many moons ago when That's the Way it is,came out,I was driving home. That song came on and there went my lead foot. I was so happy and singing away,before you know it here comes the police, I had your song on so loud I didn't hear the siren. Finally I look in the rearview and pull over. Your song wasn't over so I was not too happy about having being interupted. The police officer hears your music,smiles and hands me a speeding ticket. I have always said that that ticket was well worth it! Hope to see you in St.Louis. Francine Bruce's Reply: Sorry about the ticket.

My husband was the one who introduced me to your music and ever since then; you have been one of my favorite musicians. You give so..... much when you perform and I could have sat all night and listen to you.
Thank you for such a great evening!
Your fan,
Karen Hoffner Bruce's Reply: Westbury was sure fun - thanks, Karen.

Great show at Ridgefield Play House. Very curious who the unnamed sax player was. He definitely complemented the group well. I never realized how much heckling you get from the audience. You are truly a well loved artist Bruce's Reply: Bill Evans - one of the great sax players.

I am listening to your music now over 20 years and I am a fan from Germany. So I am always looking for concerts somewhere in Europe. Is there anything planned or do we have to come over to states?
Up to this time we will keep on watching your DVDs. Regs Joern Bruce's Reply: Sorry, Joern.

Date: 08-14-2008 03:26:57 PM Posted by: Vike | The 13th is always a lucky day. This year I'd seen Radiohead, the other Bruce and his band in a 1500 seat theater and Adrian Belew with twin child prodigies. I thought you and your band would be a nice relaxing capper to an unusually unique summer. However, I was stunned that on that summer's night in Ridgefield, Ct, with only about 500 others around me, your band walked out with no set list to speak of and made it a request night. This must be what jazz is like.
My mother used to hang with Count Basie and others that used to jam in Copenhagen in the '50's and it must have been something - last night in one of the sleepiest states in the union I watched you clowns set our ears on fire at times and just ease us away from our troubles and worries. I've always been a fan but to watch the total improvisation -- I guess I was right in my gut when I struggled to find a date away from the Skagg-machine - thanks a million. Stay healthy and obsessed with music and I will continue giving you money in return. Bruce's Reply: Thanks, Vike - this is a really nice note.
