Carrie you still rule my dear. Was watching some old Hammerbox on you tube last night. That music still makes me want to jump around and play guitar with it. Hed, Simple Passing and Trip are my favorites. Hope all is well. Hugs from Wisconsin. Just Like Sunshine. Jim
Thanks Carrie for a great live show last night at the Mural. All of Goodness put their heart & soul into another amazing performance. It only makes me sad to think that seeing such shows will only be an occasional thing (but I'll take what I can get). I even turned on your music to a friend of mine (better late than never). I picked up your solo album at the show & am exited to get it spinning in my cd player. Thanks for all of the amazing music over the years. We are lucky to have Goodness & all of it's players, together or separate. Enjoy the rest of the summer!
Thanks for your friendship! I just love your voice. Hammerbox was the first thing that hit me. But got to say, your new songs are great! Rokrok. -zargo-
NNNNOOOoooooo!!!!! You were In L.A. And I Missed It! Damnit!!! : ( Come Back To L.A. Please, I Am So Bummed Out That I Missed The Show At The Hotel Cafe
ok we are so bummed that we are missen all these great shows!!!! We are down in San Diago working for six months havin a blast but realllly bummed we are missin the goodness shows...... Luvs, Shan
Carrie, what a show! In my not so humble opinion, you easily held you position as the greatest rock vocalist, ever. It was a flawless and potent performance (as always) and you were pure sex appeal wrapped in that golden voice.
Last night's show was amazing. Finally getting to see Goodness back in action was such a great thing to see/experience. Everyone put their all into their performance. Garth jumping into the crowd to take care of some Showbox security business was classic & he didn't miss a beat getting back into the song. Thanks for great night of music, it was well worth the long wait last night. Thanks for being a constant force in Seattle's music. I hope to be able to go to the 8/23 show at the Mural. Take Care!
