  •  Mal 1 week ago
    I'm not a religious man, but right now I'd beg any god that would listen to grant you and yours amnesty. Your show just about had me in tears, and I've no way of knowing what this morning has brought, but I hope against hope that she beats the odds. And if not, let me be a comfort to you, even if just a shoulder or an ear. I love you Charlie, and I'm here if you need me.
  •  Tim Fatchen 1 week ago
    Thanks for the thought-provoking. But right now, prayers and hope for your family...
  •  Chasing Andromeda 1 week ago

  •  Billy Sea 1 week ago
    Charlie, you totally Rock. Thanks for playing my song on the radio. Loved how you had everyone guess smile I've been chilling this weekend because February totally ruint me, lol. I did catch it on replay after I noticed your and Debs comment.

    It is funny that 2.5 of my 3 favorite songs not in my style but guess if you go stupid with your writing, things like that will just happen big_smile
    I'll try to call in tomorrow or Tuesday. Take good care and Thanks again smile

    BTW, I think it is totally cool that you put rock hands on both your accounts. I did that too, It was kinda a neat feeling, lol
  •  Flo Paris 1 week ago

  • Kim & Justin 1 week ago

  •  timmyriordan 1 week ago
    Thanks for the comments Charlie! After the month I'm taking a few days to relax into the Barcalounger of my soul. A few more days and I'll be back to check out some tunes.
  • Tim Wille 1 week ago
    Sure, you can play whatever you like of my stuff if you want smile
  • Hey Charlie. Thanks for the comment!
    Hope you're doing great. I've tuned into a few of your shows and it sounds like your doing great!
    Keep on rockin'!
  • Taylor Tay 2 weeks ago
    Wow, thanks for playing my version of the Explore the Core track on your show! I feel honoured, to be honest I didn't think any of my stuff would be good enough to be up with all these past FAWMers' work. Thanks again, I really appreciate what you do for us FAWMwriters and the FAWM community in general.
  • digger 2 weeks ago
    i just signed up so i could tell you how much i admire what you are doing. man, i wish i was doing it too. i just listened to all your songs. i'm inspired to write one myself now tonight...
  •  Dusty Mason 2 weeks ago
    I take back two out of the three "best"s in my previous salutation. It should now read, "Best beware of feral beach cats," Have a nice *train* ride to St. John
  •  Dusty Mason 2 weeks ago
    Ch Ch-
    I want your news from, and impressions of New Orleans, my *other* hometown. If you visit Jackson Square during the daytime ask around at the line of horse and buggies on Decatur St. for my dear old friend Willie Picket. He'll surely take you on a complimentary ride around the Quarter. You're really going to enjoy all of the buskers, there are always some amazing acts out playing for the tourists. In fact you should drag Steffan out and pick up some beer money on the streets. Best best best, Dusty
  •  kermy 3 weeks ago
    then you should come to maine and write songs about lobsters and boats and sand and sea!!! someday - i hold out hope!
  •  Linzi 3 weeks ago
    big_smile thanks for playing 'Weeks Ago', hahaha, it sounds funny the show!
  •  Steffan Pitzel 3 weeks ago
    Charlie! What time do you get in to the NOLA on Tuesday? I ask because the only man with a functioning car at my house just picked up work from 6 A.M to 6 P.M on that day. I can probably find some wheels, but the arrival time would help.

    Also - are you pro or anti text messaging?

    ALSO - I JUST heard my song open up your radio show tonight (I was at work while it was live.) Totally shocked me. Had me grinning through the whole show (bolstered by your epic saga of tax-form woes, no doubt.)

    Anyways - let me know when you're getting in. My # is 708.*eight oh five* .2950
  •  Errol 4 weeks ago
    Aw.... no worries Charlie. I have fond memories of that song. BTW, I really like your Second Hand song. I will comment on it, but it's very cool. That sounds like a fun song to cover...
  •  Errol 4 weeks ago
    Hey Charlie! Can you play your version of Find a Way? big_smile I miss it.
  •  PAt fee 4 weeks ago
    for certain, i'm down the hall from Pitzel
  •  Debs 1 month ago
    I'd love to hear it, Charlie!
  •  expendablefriend 1 month ago
    Just enjoying catching up with last night's FAWMcast. How do you manage to travel around, do the radio show and STILL find time to write?! You are a great FAWMbassador, Charlie!
  •  Jinx 1 month ago
    Thanks for the nice words on the FAWMcast, Charlie!
  • Embers of Autumn 1 month ago
    I'll call you again at the end of the month to let you know when I hit my 14 songs. smile That'll give me even more impetus to reach that goal.
  • joy212 1 month ago
    Thanks Charlie.
    the last line kind of houses the implication of it not being my call to forgive the abuser, and the abusee is never going to, sealing his fate as unforgivable.
  •  Bruce H. McCosar 1 month ago
    Hey, thanks for the comment on "My Secret Word for Dragonfly" -- this FAWM is going by pretty fast for me, since I'm snowed in. And it keeps on snowing! With any luck I'll finish before all the power lines come down around here big_smile
  •  Cody Statz 1 month ago
    I may have to tweek the song a titch still... I usually get a) really excited about a song, and post it before it is polished OR b) tired of working on the song and post it because I feel done with it (in an exhausted fashion).

    Thanks for the note!! If I revisit I will have to look into addressing synth levels.
  •  Stephen Wordsmith 1 month ago
    You've... you've turned into a shirt!
  •  Errol 1 month ago
    *laugh* I'm listening to the radio show. And enjoying conversations of Fat little Swedish boys. big_smile
  •  Dan Vaillancourt 1 month ago
    Thanks Charlie! Good luck on your tour! Did you get the mp3 that I mailed you?
  •  Juxtaposition 1 month ago
    I've got some stuff in the works right now, but this is going to be a quiet fawm for me this year.

    Can't wait to see you this May though!
  • Chris Adams 1 month ago
    Hey, I have some lyrics up, so if you wanna take a look and see if there's anything you want to record, go right ahead.
  • Are you taking radio show suggestions? http://fawm.org/songs/1255/
  • cheerios 1 month ago
    I moved to provo to go to school. i love it here. a great live music scene for such a small town. if you're passing through in april, you will have to let me know. i'll make sure you find some great live music for your show.
  •  Girls In Uniform 1 month ago
    Just thought I'd leave a note to say how much I'm enjoying the FAWMcasts. I am enjoying them A Lot. Especially great to hear your interview with Burr. Happy FAWMing!
  •  Fine Excuses 1 month ago
    Permission granted with pleasure - now, i've just got to write some decent stuff...Cheers Charlie!
  •  thundereggrules 1 month ago
    Great to meet you yesterday, Charlie. Hope to catch up with you soon on the airwaves.
  •  Fine Excuses 1 month ago
    Charlie, that '3-Tooth Minimum' performance on YouTube is fantastic - the most entertaining thing I've seen today. Is that something you wrote?
  •  Dick Clark 1 month ago
    You left a notebook at the Doylestown Moose Lodge. Great lyric ideas...let's collaborate
  •  Rick Amorphis 1 month ago
    Charlie,
    Thanks for playing it, that's so cool! I heard the show with Burr...I'll have to listen to the ones since then.
    I have a family commitment for Sat. night so I most likely won't make it...but maybe I can ditch them! smile
  • Chris Adams 1 month ago
    Aight. I'll keep that in mind come February.
  •  Balance Lost 1 month ago
    yo.
  • Chris Adams 1 month ago
    Would you like to do a collaboration with me this FAWM? I can do lyrics if you can do instruments and record.
  •  expendablefriend 1 month ago
    Hey Charlie, thanks so much for playing my songs the other night! (And also for the grammar lesson in the same show! smile )

    Edit: And last night too, just catching up on that!!!
  •  Tim Fatchen 1 month ago
    THank you Charlie. I'm now trying to put back into FAWM a little of what I've got out of it, especially the courage gained from my first anxious debut in FAWM 07, from the oldfawmers incl CC...
  •  John Fahres 1 month ago
    Hook me up for the 29th... I'm hip!

    I'll put it on my calendar of gigs (I figure 3-4 songs?)
  •  Charlie Cheney 1 month ago
    brrrrrrrrp
  •  Dusty Mason 1 month ago
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!? Shite, I missed it. Best in your general direction.

    I heard through the grapevine that you played one of my songs on your show. Even-odds, knowing you as I do, it was Travels With Charlie. Are you now broadcasting nightly?
  •  Billy Sea 1 month ago
    Charlie, I have an Olympus Digital Voice Recorder (WS-100) that has a mic and ear jack. It runs on one AAA battery and pulls apart to allow the mp3s to be uploaded via usb. If you think it is something you can use for your trip to help capture the songs you write, lmk and I'll mail it out to you Tuesday (I'll just need the address you want it sent to).

    Don't have the docs anymore, but I've seen them on the internet and could track them down if this is something you might be interested in.
  •  Jharms 1 month ago
    Hey Charlie, I'm a little unfamiliar with how your radio station works. Is it just broadcast from where you're at, or are you streaming it as well?
  • Vincent Poprocky 1 month ago
    Sound's great, I'd love to!
  •  Frances 1 month ago
    Here's one more message - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
  •  Frances 1 month ago
    PS You have my permission to play any of my stuff on your show.
  •  Frances 2 months ago
    Hey - here are most of my 2009 FAWM songs! From "Missed" down, they're 50/90 2008. Play away! smile

  •  Frances 2 months ago
    Chhhhaaarrrrliieee . . . loved the first episode of the radio show! Can't wait for more!
  •  G Slade 2 months ago
    Charlie! Looking forward to seeing you this FAWM. Better bring a good sweater though, no heat on the first floor.
  • Jules 2 months ago
    Chaz! Hey!
    Can't wait till the party on January 30th!!!!
    Hugs,
    Julessss
  •  paulotteson 2 months ago
    Touring and Fawming.. you are a mad man.. and possibly a genius.
  •  Dusty Mason 2 months ago
    CHARLIE!!! We're gonna ROCK The Doylestown Moose Lodge #1284 on the Jan. 29th!
    I can't believe I just wrote that sentence, *and* that it's TRUE.
  •  Mal 2 months ago
    I'd love to have you come up. If you're bound for St. Louis, it's a bit out of your way from KC, but it's about seven and half hours to Madison from here, and then about three hours from Madison to Chicago, if you'd want to go that route.

    If it helps, I have coffee and booze and a big kitchen. tongue
  •  Robyn Mackenzie 2 months ago
    I've only been at UNM for one semester so far, so I'm not entirely familiar with all the music faculty. Here's the list though. http://music.unm.edu/faculty_staff/fac_area.htm
    My guess is that Doug Geist, the studio recording instructor, would be your best bet. I'm not entirely sure about that though; I have yet to meet him in person. If nothing else, he may be able to tell you who else you can talk to.
    I can also get you in touch with Steve Paxton, who was the head of the College of Santa Fe's contemporary music department up until that department closed last year. If UNM fails, Santa Fe would be a good place to host a seminar too.
    Yay! This is exciting! big_smile
  •  devin 2 months ago
    That's a heavy tour schedule Charlie...I hope you have a blast!
  •  Mal 2 months ago
    Aces, Charlie! : ) Are you in town for the day, or staying over, or what? I can get down there to see you, and if you need a place to crash, bring you back to St. Joseph with me. We should get the lads from Columbia to meet up in KC, as well.
  •  The Cow Exchange 2 months ago
    Yay-zah for radio shoes! Thanks for doin' another run.
