    17 egg shakers?! LOL…..why so many?!

  2. djrare says:

    because they lose so many :) …sure you don’t want me to bring mine??
    and ONLY 5 suits..not going to say anything lol
    don’t forget some ’sweat cloths’ and extra guitar picks
    we will supply the snacks!

  3. Susie says:

    Okay I am officially going to throw a temper tantrum over not being in Dallas!!!

    And….5 suits? for three shows? No comment =)

    Overpacking is an art form…underpacking can be dangerous!!

  4. djrare says:

    Hey Marty, thanks for my new favorite word. I now know that the band has a glockenspiel, not a xylophone.
    And definitely will be loving the funk and magic in Dallas!

  5. Lisa Knox says:

    Can’t wait guys, it’s gonna be a kickass weekend!! I decided instead of mailing my Monkey gifts, i’m just gonna bring it all to Dallas and give it to you guys at the after party! :~)

    I can’t wait for Dallas. I am so excited. I was planing to sleep in my car so I could go to the VIP after party but thanks to Nikki and Franny i don’t have too. Now all I have to do is pack and drive.

  7. Kat says:

    Ha! I’m looking forward to it. Not that I know what an egg shaker is, but then there are a lot of things I don’t know. I am truly broken hearted that the VIP tickes are out of my (admittedly modest) price range. But I will soldier on. Thanks for the updates, Marty.

    (P.S. I’m not really that broken hearted, I’m just thrilled that I get to go!)

  8. Becky says:

    Only 5 suits? Um….might wanna rethink that…we cant have another episode of our Monkeys underdressed again!
    And are you sure 17 shakers is enough?
    And dont forget the extra picks and the duct tape! (ya never know when that guitar strap is gonna go….lol)

    Cant wait to see you all in Dallas!

  9. Lisa Knox says:

    Marty don’t forget the banana suit!!

  10. JacksonLove says:

    You Monkeys sure are quirky. I’m very sad you aren’t in Canada and that I can’t see you sooner.

  11. a.k.a. Kody says:

    Not that there’s a whole lot out here, but feel free to come put on a show in Alabama some time. I’m just sayin’..

    And congrats, now I’m going to have the word ‘glockenspiel’ stuck in my head all day.

  12. May says:

    Come to Brazil! We have many bananas! lol

  13. anna says:

    I am now avoiding this site, until after the event. I’m from Australia, and in no way capable of attending the following shows or the launch. So I’ll look forwarding to buying my copy of Creative Control on iTunes. See you in August.

  14. Gallie says:

    I’m missing the Glockenspiel!! Drat.. *sighs*

    I’ll see y’all in August..

    psst.. bring the Glockenspiel and some maracas! :)

  15. Mary says:

    If I see any egg shakers on stage that are red, I will happily assume they are the ones Steph and I sent a while back….(yay!)

  16. John Coslett says:

    Thanks for including the “Scientist”
    Wish I could see him working the board
    Very proud of my son
    the scientist’s dad

  17. Jenn says:

    What, no trombone?

  18. Liz says:

    Keep an eye on that funk…he might get sick of it and go hide in a congarel(sp?) shell…

  19. Karina says:

    Great job this weekend. Please come back soon!!!

  20. Jiff says:

    The 2 shows I saw and VIP party were sooo great!!! The egg shakers were put to good use! Thanks for making my weekend….it was because of you guys that I made it through TwiCon without losing my mind!

  21. Shelley says:

    The shows were all amazing … but the after party (that we fully crashed, in the front row no less) was incredible! I’d love to see you in Vancouver or Seattle; just a thought:) Thank you – especially for the funk!

  22. Villma says:

    You all worked the magic all weekend long!!!! Come back to the East coast!!!

    PS- Tell Tim “the Orlando Girls” say HI!

  23. Debbie says:

    Hi Shelley,
    Which after party did you crash? For the VIP party, the cost of the ticket went to the Spencer Bell memorial fund. Please read the Spencer Bell area of this site and consider making a donation if it was the VIP party.

  24. Marie says:

    The shows were awesome in Dallas…and I love your ties…I wore my tie to the concert too. You were my saving grace at the convention…Thank God…. Can’t wait for you to return to Orlando!!!

  25. brittany says:

    where would be be without magic?! :P

  26. yasmin says:

    hello little’s monkeys

  27. Shelley says:

    Hey Debbie,
    I really wish we would have known exactly what we were getting ourselves into that night, or rather “letting ourselves in” to. Thank you for the heads up!!

  28. Debbie says:

    Hi Shelly,
    No worries. I just wish I had been able to pm you as the Spencer Bell Legacy concert happened this past weekend and you could have viewed it via Livestream (if you were interested in Spencer’s music).
    We had no chance to talk about Spencer to those in line at the Palladium since the Twicon ball occurred at the same time, otherwise those in attendance would have known about Spencer and the proceeds of the VIP party going to the fund.
    Thank you for responding back.
