It’s a small world after all …
Hi,
I was just curious where everyone was from. Or, rather, where you live now. There seems to be some folks from foreign lands, which is always nice, but I’d love to hear where everyone is posting from. Unless you want to remain mysterious, which is also fine.

Hi !
As you can guess, I’m french.
I’m writing from Orl?ans (the old one ;) ), but I’m going to come back home : near Bourges in the center of France (so, near Sancerre too ;) )
See you soon, for some European gigs (strongly hopefully !) !

Hello Duncan,
Mattia from Como, Italy. My and my wife love your music since ‘96. Hope to see you playing soon near us. Cant’ wait to listen to the new record.
June 15th, 2005 at 10:56 am
Baton Rouge, LA and i wish that you would come within 500 miles of here. I know you came to SxSW, but it was during a really intense week and i didn’t get to go see you. If you come again, i will be there.
I am going to try to get up to Chicago to watch your show, and maybe hit the Indy show on the way up.

I’m from Southern Califronia. Beverly HIlls now. Used to live in Dana Point. I went a few times to see you play at the Coach House, among other places in SoCal. My friends and I are looking forward to your next visit as we all love everything you do musically! Thanks for doing this blog deal. I think it’s addictive to read!

I’m from Birmingham, AL. I’ve been a big fan for years but have never had the opportunity to see you perform. There’s a venue called Workplay Theater(workplay.com) in town that I think would be perfect for your kind of music, audience, show etc. It has cabaret seating and some standing room for a max capacity of about 400. It’s a very intimate setting and hosts many nationally known acts (maroon 5, blue merle, kaki king, etc). Anyway, keep up the great music and looking forward to seeing you somewhere in the southeast or in Boston(where im in college).

I live in Columbus, OH. Originally from Cleveland and came here to go to Ohio State University. I saw you play in Farmingdale last year for the first time and I’ll be staying with some buddies in Pittsburgh to see you there on Aug. 3rd. Can’t wait to hear your new stuff live.
June 15th, 2005 at 12:46 pm

I’m from Mexico City and actually I met you when you went to promote your first album at the Hard Rock Live in 1997. Now that I am living in the US I will hope to get to see your show again.
June 15th, 2005 at 1:24 pm
I’m from Houston Tx, And I have never seen you live. But I have enjoyed your music for a very long time. You have a true gift that’s for sure. Any upcoming shows in Houston? I will be there.

I hail from the Quad Cities located about 2.5 hrs west of Chicago. Moved to Colorado for a short couple of years in my early 20’s, and back to my home town…for now:) I am now of the belief that you can be happy or sad anywhere in the world…it’s your perspective on life that makes you either or. It’s a good place to live I suppose. Always wondered what the eastern coastal states held in store though.
June 15th, 2005 at 2:05 pm
Saint Cloud, MN….It’s been a while since we’ve seen you around here. Can’t wait to make it to your Chicago show. Been following along since ‘96 and can’t wait for the next installment!

Hey Duncan…remember me, Jo (aka duncandonut) from the Ram’s Head?? I was born in DC and raised in the DC metro area (Maryland side). Looking forward to your venture back to the area at the end of August (The Birchmere). Good luck with the finishing touches on the album…anxiously awaiting.

June 15th, 2005 at 5:05 pm
Sadly, I was born, raised and now live in Iowa, right on the Mississippi. The only other place I’ve lived is San Francisco, for a year during 2002-3. Damn, that was awesome.I’d really love to do mylast two years of college in the Bay area, but that’s probably not gonna happen.
June 15th, 2005 at 5:08 pm
Holy crap, fatlad1, you’re in the quad-cities?!?!? That’s like half an hour south of me!!!

Hi Duncan and Everyone!
I’m writing from Indianapolis, IN, and want to thank everyone again for the great leads on music.
Just listened to Sufjan Stevens this morning and was completely bowled over!
I’ve got my ticket for August 5 at The Patio!!! I finally did the MO downloads and love them.

Portland, OR. When will you come visit us here in Portland? Be sure to schedule your next stop during the summer months because it is lovely!
June 15th, 2005 at 7:11 pm
Hello Duncan! I’m posting from Orlando, Florida.
And Portland, OR is lovely in the summer :) Heck, it’s lovely year round!
June 15th, 2005 at 7:22 pm
Seattle, Washington.
After your performance in the lovely city of Portland, do pay a visit here, too. Because it’s just as lovely and green and organic and whatnot. :)

…I’m a very frustrated Brazilian from S??o Paulo…I finally managed to go on holiday to New York for a week and I won’t be able to see you perform…:( I’ll be there from the 20t till the 28th. How unlucky can I be?!
Anyway, I was born here in S??o Paulo, live here and love it!!

June 15th, 2005 at 10:05 pm
I was born in Oxnard (southern CA), raised in Vallejo (northern CA), and now live in Arlington, MA (a town over from Cambridge, home of Harvard University). I blame my fiance for the west coast/east coast switch (it was his job)…
Besides your planned (maybe) visit back to Northampton in October, maybe you could consider swinging by Boston as well? I would definitely go see you at both places. ^_^
thebutangjedi, you got to see the DS/Ben Folds show in SF? Must’ve been awesome, I bet. I was still living in SF when that went down, and couldn’t go because of finals :-(
G’night, all (and you too Duncan),

Anyway.

It’s interesting to me to read where other fans are from & where they’re currently living. Guess Duncan’s music is truly worldwide. :-)

I’m from Nashville, TN (NashVegas, Cashville) Music City. Yes it is music city but there is alot of bad music and a few gems. See, that is precisely why you NEED to play here so you can show these hicks what GOOD music sounds like. Not trying to be pushy but I think that it would be super duper awesomely mega galacticly cool as Pluto if you showed up and shared your craft with us… um I think that is all… yep…. THANKS MAN!

Hello. This is my first time posting a message here. I have been a fan of your music since I heard, “Barely Breathing,” on the radio. I am so glad that you are posting messages here and keeping your fans updated on what you are doing. You were wondering where some of your fans live. I live near Kansas City, MO. Are you planning on coming to Kansas City to perform? If you did, I would definitely look forward to that. I am eager to hear your new music. I also wanted to say that your music has meant a lot to me. Keep up the great work!

June 17th, 2005 at 12:02 am
Hi Duncan,
At this late hour of the evening. Normally it wouldn’t be, but I’m exhausted. I know it’s working on this computer all day long that’s made me so tired. It’s a killer for the eyes and I have been accessing my computer at work, via remotely from home, so the screen is very, very, small. Anyway, I am from Philly originally and of course you know I live in South Jersey now. I’m just about 20-25 minutes away from downtown Philadelphia. I will always be a Philly Girl, no matter what. Hopefully someday, I’ll be able to call myself a New Yorker. :) Have a nice morning Duncan.
Much love, Michele BW XO Much Peace!!!!!!! :)

Fan since 1997ish (when I was a sophmore in HS).
I first heard you in Oregon, then Washington state.
“She Runs Away” is still my favorite song, and I was listening to it for some of the most important things that have happened in my life. It brings memorys good and bad every single time that I hear it.
I still have never seen you live, I always seem to be leaving a place that you will be.
I am a military type (my lifes calling, I was born to be a military man, Army Cavalry Scout), and have taken your music to the Carribean, multiple places in Europe (France, Italy, Greece, Germany). And soon for good or ill, the Middle East, Iraq or Afganistan.
Thanks for the times, Duncan.

Kind regards,

By the way, I noticed that you liked Magnet’s album “On your side” - which I think is really cool since he’s Norwegian and all. I wonder if he is aware that you’re a fan. He’s starting to grow in popularity in Norway, has a lovely single out now called “duracellia” - You’ll need to check it out!
Have a great weekend.

Hi !
I come from belgium but I live in Lyon (France).
I’ve all your CD, I know you since 1996, I’m a great fan and I let know your music to everybody all around me. You are a big artist.
My name is katerine. My nickname is “requieskat” because this song has so helped me to pray and cure when my mother is dead with a cancer 3 years ago.
Thanks for this song, your words has been mine during months and months.
I love you and I hope to see your show once in my life. Please, come in France ! ;)

Hi, Duncan,
I?Lm Cristina and I’m from Mexico. I was in love with you when I listened for firs time in the radio. I could bought your first CD 3 years ago. Your music is very nice, and sometimes, like “Little hands”, it?Ls very erotic.
Greetings from Mexico

Hi Duncan,
I’ve been a fan since ‘Barely Breathing’. I live in Washington DC. Traveled to many places to name. Thanks to my dad in the military. However, it’s like no matter where I go, I just missed you, so let me know when you are coming around DC again.

From small town Virginia. Went to college in Blacksburg, now residing there. Saw you in Roanoke, VA about 3 or 4 years ago. Wow, that was a while ago. Comeback sometime, not many acts come around here.

Small world, really… I went to college in Blacksburg and missed the show you did in Roanoke years ago. I’m now in Fairfax VA.
Hey csword, maybe we’ve met each other before, eh?

Woodland Hills, CA - been here 2 years after living in Northern New Jersey for my entire life! I moved to the L.A. area to start up The Ellen DeGeneres Show and I have been here ever since - I love it, but ultimately want to work in NYC and live in NJ. Duncan, you are a huge talent! I hope to get you on the show in the future. I have been a fan since Barely Breathing - keep making music! When are you going to do some shows out here?
June 17th, 2005 at 9:13 pm

I’m a southern belle but currently I’m a twenty-something year old college student living in sunny San Diego, please stop by and visit our newly opened House of Blues downtown San Diego. P.S. I highly suggest Sean Watkins’ 26 miles CD. A mix of Jazz and non-traditonal bluegrass/ folk-it’s very delightful and mediating for me. TRUST ME DARLIN’!!

Born and raised in Pittsburgh (but my parents come from NYC, so don’t hold that against me). Anyway, I’ll be a New Yorker come this fall, when I start going to Hofstra University.
I would go to the Pittsburgh show at Club Cafe, but I’m 18, so maybe next time. :)

Hey Duncan
I’m in Houston,TX for right now. The few times you’ve come here to perform, I wasn’t able to go to the shows, Hopefully one of these days :)
June 18th, 2005 at 1:48 pm
born and raised in ithaca, ny. now i live in binghamton, ny and would absolutely love you if you came around the area for a show. (not that i don’t love you now, but i’d love you even more:)).
June 18th, 2005 at 8:25 pm
I’ve always wondered who/what was the inspiration behind the song ‘For You’ on the Daylight album? I’d love to have this song at my wedding (if this day ever comes). Anyone know the inside story?
A believer,

Mission Viejo, Orange County, Southern California. The OC is EXACTLY like on TV.. NOT!
I have been listening to Death Cab 4 Cutie, Sofa Surfers, and Bebel Gilberto, while I am waiting for your new album.
Next tour, I am definitely staying after to get your autograph!
June 19th, 2005 at 11:28 am
hey,
York in the U.K; allegedly home to those with repressed emotions and bad teeth according to the last U.K. message leaver. i think we probably have as many of those types as any other place but i’d definately rather be over the other side of ‘the pond’. It’s all down-hill over here!

Hey Mr. Sheik,
I’m in Orlando, FL as of now, but will be moving to the DC area in the fall
so hopefully I’ll see you for the first time at the 9:30 club, and if not, i will travel to NY to see you since you play there more often than FL.. Can’t wait for the new record to come out…
June 20th, 2005 at 4:31 am
Hello Duncan! A bit late to reply, but hopefully You’ll still be checking this post!
I’m from Houston, Texas (born and raised) but I am living in London,England at the moment…and in less than a week I will be moving back to Texas- but this time to Dallas. I would LOVE to see you live, so please try and stop by on your tour!

Hey all -
I’m in the NW suburbs of Chicago. And a random question for Fatlad1 - I lived in the Quad Cities during my college years, and on more than one occasion went to hang out/listen to a band called the Fat Lads. Can I assume you are the same? You guys were great!

I’m from Plano, TX (suburb of Dallas). Although, I go to Oklahoma State right now and live in Stillwater, OK. Talk about culture shock! I know quite a few guys that like your music so come down to Dallas sometime or else come to OSU and rock out on our huge library lawn during the fall semester.

Born and raised in Indianapolis. I’ve been in Maryland near DC for the last 5 years and will probably be here a while.
I, of course, always liked Barely Breathing - it came out while I was in college. But I became a huge fan after hearing “That Says It All” in the movie Three to Tango. The rest is history as they say - That Says it All is still my favorite DS song and would be in my top 5 songs of all time.
DS - I heard you jammed with my friends in Blast! while they were on Broadway in NYC. I was very jealous! I participated with that same group when they were a drum corps and had a show with the Canadian Brass. Small world.
xoxo to all,

Exton, Pennsylvania for me. Grew up 5 minutes north in Eagle, Pennsylvania. Both of these locations are about 40 minutes west of Philadelphia…so your show at The Point was an easy trip!
June 20th, 2005 at 7:58 pm
Born and raised in western maryland. Now living in pittsburgh. First saw you at rosebud in 01. Loving your music since the first album. Can’t wait to see you in Aug!!!!!! Keep up the awesome work!!

Where I’m posting from varies. The life of a grad student is somewhat itinerant.
Most common places- Philly, PA (The Point show was amazing), Madison (New Jersey not Wisconsin), Washington, DC, and occasionally Houston, Baltimore, and London.
June 20th, 2005 at 11:38 pm
Now — if you’ve made it all the way to post #143 I’ll be totally impressed!
Lived in the DC area for 2/3 of my life, Chicago for 1/3, and Honolulu for a mere flash (in comparison). Presently in the DC burbs — so sorry I missed you at Rams Head — but hopefully will catch you when you come back to the area later this summer.
Although I’ve travelled a fair amount, I still find NYC to be my favorite city — the energy is infectious, and I can’t find it the same anywhere else.
June 21st, 2005 at 12:09 am
Hey I’m posting again - I just really wanted to let all of you know about this great cause:
The House of Representatives is about to vote on whether to slash funding for NPR and PBS - starting with “Sesame Street,” “Reading Rainbow” and
other commercial-free children’s shows. If approved, this would be the
most severe cut in the history of public broadcasting.
There is an online petition gathering support to stop this cut at
http://www.moveon.org/publicbroadcasting/
you can look around on the site and read a lot before signing - the only thing is - the House could start voting as soon as Tuesday so we need to help out now.
Anyway this seems like something worth telling people about and Duncan I hope you don’t mind me using this space to do so - we could really use your support.

Originally from San Antonio, TX. Although, for the time being I live in Colorado Springs, CO. Missed you on the SxSW stop in Austin. Planned on seeing you then, but some crap came up and I wasn’t able to head back down to TX for the show. I’ll see you at the Chicago show in August though cause I’ll be in the area. Great timing on scheduling that show BTW. I’ll be moving to England in October near the New Market/Cambridge area. Still have to do some house hunting though. So, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for a European tour after you release White Limo.
June 21st, 2005 at 3:07 am
The Bets!
Thank you for putting the petition addy up!
I hope we can save them: what would I do without my butterfly in the sky? Thank you again, and I’ll post the info in my blogs via myspace. Do the bulletin thing too. Gotta get the last 3%!

June 21st, 2005 at 9:13 am
I grew up in Chatham Cape Cod - nice place to visit but wouldn’t want to live there. :) I have lived overseas - the Azores and Guam. I don’t know, I guess I have a thing for islands. As they say no man is an island…. but maybe this woman is. Anway, I went to college at UMASS Amherst (94 - 98) and Mt. Holyoke (00 - 02). I love the politics out there - seems to be a niche for everyone. I miss it terribly!
I currently live in Roanoke, Virginia. I hate the politics out here - I feel awash in a sea of red, white and blue. The local radio stations actually banned “Imagine” from the airwaves following 911. If you’re not with us you’re with the terrorists seems to be the motto around here. I find it bland and…. overcooked but people seem to get fat on it anyway.
I can always count on your music… Mr. Sheik… to get me through. You truly are an inspiration in a world that can be so confusing and… uninspiring. I love that you have remained true to yourself as I know that the music industry favors watered down, superficial lyrics and belly buttons. Your voice of reason and sentiment is something we all need… whether we realize it or not (in my little opinion, of course).
I have not seen you play but would like to. A heavy work schedule prevented me from heading for The Iron Horse… :( my preferred venue.
Believe it or not, spring has once again come and gone…. Happy Solstice everyone!

Hey Duncan I just wanted to give a quick shoutout as to where I am from and I live in Santa Clarita, CA.
June 21st, 2005 at 4:35 pm
Hey Duncan, I’m in Atlanta, GA. The last place you played at here (The Cotton Club) is no longer open to the public (Clear Channel owns it and decided it wasn’t making enough money to stay open). Thanks for taking the time to sign those pictures I got enlarged of you with us when you played at Six Flags with Donna Lewis. Hope you get to make it this way again soon, not sure if I’ll be able to make it up to Raleigh in August but I’ll try extra hard if you bring David Poe with you too.
Take care!

I’m from all over. I’m a military brat, so I was born in Philly, went to Hawaii, then to Texas, Kansas, Belgium, Virginia, Long Island NY, and back to Virginia. Then my dad retired in 1983 and we went to Hilton Head SC and finally back home to Pennsylvania. And we vacation every summer in Hilton Head becasue the place is AWESOME and beautiful and we love it. My 15 year old son and I are looking forward to seeing you preform at the end of July in Sellersville, PA. It’s actually the closest venue to us that you have ever played. It’s a quick 15 minutes down Rt. 309. So thanks!

Hi Duncan ~ I am from Port Washington, WI.. about 30 minutes north of Milwaukee. I met you once at the Annex (Regent Street Retreat) in Madison, WI. My friends and I hung around until every last fan left, and then we waltzed over to Greenbush for some doughnuts ;)
Then I met you again with Gerry in Milwaukee at the Rave. I can’t wait to hear you live again. (Probably Chicago 8/6) It is a treat for me!

Melissa (Lissi) from San Diego California here! I’ve lived in SD for 4 almost 5 years now and I was actually able to catch your concert at the Belly Up back on April 16th 2003. It was my first concert.
I was born and bred in California, but was originally born in North Hollywood. Then we moved to the Mojave Desert and now I’m in San Diego working for a huge evil online computer gaming company. I’d rather be in a bookstore.

Hey Duncan,
Have you ever been to South Africa? or Africa for that matter?
I really liked the live stuff in the MO Section, it’s as close as i’ve come to being at one of your shows. Previosly i had only heard the two live tracks on the Barely Breathing single.
Anyway, thanks.

I’m a first time poster, too. I don’t live anywhere exotic, but in good news, I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and you’re coming here soon! I’ve enjoyed your music since 8th grade, when your first single came out and my friends and I used to sing along with the radio when you came on…Wow. That was a while ago. Anyway, I look forward to hearing you live when you come to town. And I’m an aspiring singer-songwriter myself, so hey, ya know…if you need an opening act when you swing through…drop me a line. ;-)
All the best on your tour,

I am happy to see a few military brats.
I currently reside in Schwedelbach, Deutschland which at the moment is home.
I am heading off on my own this summer to Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania. It has been a while since i lived in the states and I am not looking forward to leaving my home in Germany after 4 years, longest I have ever lived in one place.
I hope to see Mr. Sheik in a concert someday. I will happily drag a few of my pals along.
Auf Weidersehen!

Someday 101, I miss San Antonio!
But I wanted to leave a message for DS or an admin concerning the concert dates. I noticed while surfing Ticketmaster that Duncan is scheduled to play at The Birchmere on the 24 of August in Alexandria, VA. However, the tour dates section of the site has him listed playing in Chicago again for the North Halstead Market Days. Kinda confused me. Thanks.
June 22nd, 2005 at 9:49 pm
I’ve called Greenwich, CT home as of the last 10 years, but before that I’ve lived all over NYC and the ‘burbs thereabouts, Vancouver Canada, Miami and Palm Beach, Florida.
Most of my fun is had in NYC, though.

Wow, lots of people from Germany. Does anyone know Spangdahlem, near Bitburg? It’s one of the prettiest places I’ve ever seen, cozily nestled close to the Luxembourg border and nice and convenient to France. I mostly highly recommend a visit to that region. Well really, that whole area’s gorgeous anyway… why get specific? Cheers, everybody :D

Can’t wait to hear the new record :0)
June 27th, 2005 at 10:34 pm
Duncan, Glad to hear you’ve got a new album coming. I first heard on ‘The Saint’ soundtrack and have been hooked ever since. I though Daylight was a brilliant album. I’m from Utah. Not many artists find their way down here. I’ll cross my fingers though, and catch you if you play in Salt Lake City.
June 28th, 2005 at 9:43 am
I’m from Little Rock, Arkansas. Still living in the area. Would love to see you around here. But wait until October….the heat and humidity would smother you during the summer.

i’m so pleasantly surprised to see that you, duncan, are loved by people from all over the world. glad to see you’re appreciated by people from norway, finland, deutschland, germany, england, indonesia, south africa, zimbabwe,… your music never fails to touch a soul in every corner of the world (or almost, for that matter).
June 30th, 2005 at 10:56 pm
Hello - I’m new to the whole site, and to DS. I accidently stumbled upon you just today, Duncan, but the music has been haunting me for several years… For whatever reason, the song from The Saint soundtrack was winding around and round in my head for the past several days, not sure what the trigger was. It haunted me ever since then but reared its head recently, not sure why. I decided to find out the rest of the Story, and I stumbled across this site, so here I am. I’m in League City, TX right now but travel much for my job. I’m a Japanese-American born in Houston, TX and an artist, but I am an IT Manager by-day because I have to eat :) I live by the water (Gulf Coast) but work in Houston…. I can’t wait to get more acquainted with your music and the world of DS!

Your music is so calming - like an old friend that you never want to stop listening to. I last saw you in 2002 when you played the good old Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ. I hope to see you there again soon, but am looking forward to your show in Hoboken, NJ. There is only one other songwriter that soothes me the way you do and that is Howard Jones! I would love to see you both perform together! Do you still keep in touch? Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift with us all! I am so very much looking forward to the new album and hope to meet with you in Hoboken. Take care, have a safe and Happy 4th and may God bless you always!

Hi! I’m from Manila in the Philippines. I’ve always wanted to see you perform and I got the chance to do so when you visited last year. So far, all I have is your first, Phantom Moon and the Daylight albums. It’s hard trying to get a copy of your second album here in Manila. Anyway, I’ll look forward to your next project.

hey sam! i’m also from the philippines, quezon city to be exact. it’s actually kinda hard to look for duncan’s first two albums (his self-titled and humming). try to look in all the record bars. i spotted the CD versions in tower records along quezon ave. it’s a good thing i bought those two right away (i only had the cassette versions before). there aren’t any CDs of those first two albums there (coz i went again). try other record bars, especially tower records in megamall, O in rockwell and music one in greenbelt. they may still have them. happy hunting! :)

Hey Duncan,
I live in Ann Arbor, MI. My husband and I are looking forward to seeing you on 8/4 at the Ark here in A2! I’m so glad you booked a date here! See you in about a month!
Sam :-)

Hey hey, just thought I would add my name to the list of people in Canada. I live in a small town called St Albert. Fairly nice town. You should do a Canadian tour. Can’t wait for the next CD, I love all of your albums. Shalom!

Hello from lovely, sweaty, humid Bethesda, Maryland, just a handful of miles north of the White House as the crow flies. (Of course, the crow would have to watch out that it hadn’t violated restricted airspace…)
I can’t tell you how excited I am to see that you’re playing the Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia in August - what a fantastic venue. Best acoustics in town & really great audiences, too. Don’t know if you’ve ever played the Birchmere before, but I think you’ll really enjoy it. Just a couple of months ago, I mentioned to a friend that you were on my list of “people I want to see at the Birchmere.” I’m off to buy tickets right now. Hope you fill the house. :-) — MJ

Hello Duncan!! Could you possibly hang a SHARP left and up towards SEATTLE. Whenever you possibly can; I know its probably spreading your time thin huh? Seattle was once know for creating outstanding talent, however time has passed and I would love to hear some refreshing music again. If you find the time and energy, please bring your soothing voice and beautiful energy to the Pacific Northwest.

Hi Duncan-
Amanda in Salt Lake City, UT here. It’s been too long since I’ve seen you in concert-please say you’ll be stopping by on your next tour!
It was nice meeting you last time you were here. Thanks for signing my CD and poster! :)

Duncan,
I live in Nashvill, Tennessee. I have tickets and will be seeing you in Indianapolis in August and Nashville in September. This will be my first chance to see you live since I first became a fan in 1994!! I really look forward to the shows.
Later,
Josh

Hi Duncan,
I’m Judy, originally from Abb. Louisiana but now transplanted to Houston Tx. Would love to see you live in concert as your music is some of the best that is out there. Looking forward to new CD White Limosine

Hi Duncan,
I’m a bit behind with this one, but better late than never. I’m from Brisbane, Australia - only the second person from down here to comment, I noticed!
Please please PLEASE cross the many oceans to perform down here sometime! We feel very neglected!
Since I’m a first time poster, and despite the fact that I know you don’t get much of a chance to reply here, I just wanted to say that you and your music have touched me both musically and spiritually over the years. I found your first album in a second-hand CD store and picked it up on instinct, and my instinct proved correct. I’m anxiously awaiting your White Limousine, but I’m also hopeful that you’ll do another collaboration with Stephen Sater sometime in the near future!
Anyway, don’t mean to come across as a smitten fanboy! Thank you again for what you do and who you are. I think you’re really helping to change the world through music.
Be happy :)
- Mick

I didn’t see to many other Michiganders… Born and raised in Detroit, still live in the burbs. Can’t wait to see Duncan on Aug. 4th at the Ark

I was born in Argentina, but grew up in New Jersey - Scotch Plains, and later, Hillsborough. I’ve been living in Princeton for almost a year now (except the past two months, which I’ve spent in St. Petersburg, Russia, where I haven’t been able to find any of Duncan’s music :( ).
Cheers from the other side of the planet,

Hi! I am writing from Indianapolis; can’t wait to see the show tommorrow night! I’ve been a fan for quite a while now and was pleasantly surprised to see that you would be hitting Indy, much less a personal venue as the Patio. Good choice.
