Comment: Coming your way - I noted on the web that you're playing Thursdays at the Boathouse II - Current plan is to see you there on the 31st. Would you and Bree be up for meeting us for dinner before the show? No way - we'll get this close and not see you guys. Are there any horse trails to hike in your part of the country? I feel a need.

Comment: Hi Jonmark,
I just ordered your CD without listening to any of the clips (no sound on this computer). Your singing, playing and kindness at the Mickey Newbury Gathering last weekend convinced me I needed to own your CD. You are truly a gentle spirit.

Love,

Comment: Jonmark, every time you lift your guitar on to your knee, somewhere a wounded man puts down his gun. Every time you raise your voice to sing, somewhere an angry man pulls his car to the side of the road and turns back home to make peace with his family. Every time you sit calmly and patiently listen to someone finish what they started out to say, clocks lose their meaning and we have all the time in the world.

Comment: Hi, Jonmark. Just poking around, learning a bit about the folks on the Front Porch. It's a couple hours past midnight on the west coast, May 19th, Mickey's birthday. No doubt a tough one for his family, but I'm sure they'll get through it. I'll go back to looking around your site now. Feel free to visit the "mazappas" site listed above. Cheers, Doug

Comment: Got the music, Jonmark. Wonderful! To give my evaluation of praise here would imply that I know something about music. So, let me say only, and showing personal preference, if only JD could sing like you! One more thing, "Feed my people" may soon be in my church choir's repertoire. If that song is of your heart, then yours and mine are of the same. -Jeff S

I, too, like so many of the other folks from the Front Porch can't get enough after listening so many times to your contribution to 'the' Tribute CD... so maybe having this recording will help satisfy those cravings...but better keep 'em comin' just in case...

I had a phone number on her at one point but heart surgery got me so discombulated I lost LOTS of phone numbers!! Doing much better now, though. Take care and keep me posted on what you're doing -- my newsletter, thebridgeworks, comes entirely from "field reports."

Comment: Jonmark, I saw you perform at Perdido Key when I came (to hear the music) over to see Mickey Newbury. I said then that I had to get a CD of yours asap, I loved your performance. Time has slipped away but I have now heard "When I Heard Newbury Sing" and suddenly, I am reminded of when I heard Jonmark sing... I have listened to clips from your site and am blown away, again. Love your work, love your nature, love you.

Comment: Hi Jonmark...
I think I have chatted with you indirectly on Mick's
board from time to time. The other day I heard a
song you wrote and sang, "When I Heard Newbury Sing"
and it simply blew me away! Is it on or will it be
on a CD? Some how I had missed out on hearing you
in the past and it was certainly loss. I am off to
correct that problem right now.

Thanks for the great music.

Well, it's almost Labor Day weekend and I am still trying to get away from work and come down to my old stomping ground on the island..(Gotta sit in those wicker chairs at Remy's!)
I hope to get down there before Thanksgiving.
Does the name "Bondo" or "Big John" on radio mean anything to you? They both did long gigs up here in WV and I'd like to see them...
I'll let you know, and I'll find you.

"1987".
I Learned "ALOT" from watching you perform at Tony Roma's in Gnashville, and at Harper's place. You have always been an inspiration to me to do better than I thought I could, because you could do things that shouldn't be able to be done by one man with an accoustic guitar and one voice.
Whether you know it or not, you have always been a TRUE frien
