Annalee	Apr 12 2008 1:55 PM For me this quote/idea is the hardest when you think you know it all, especially about music! To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong. --Joseph Chilton Pearce Enjoy the weekend, Annalee
Rebecca Dennison	Oct 20 2007 1:49 PM Costumes, creepy covers, and a free EP? What more could you want from a Halloween show?
luke asher	Oct 7 2007 5:25 AM You guys were, as always, ever so splendid. The only problem was me battling my sin of wanting to punt my pint glass into the heads of my sisters who have way to much to say. Other than that minor detail, all was well. Again my friends, again.
simon the great	Sep 5 2007 12:42 AM hello newest myspace friend! your music sounds amazing.
D-bloc	Aug 29 2007 9:41 PM I was hoping that people would follow my lead and write their name on it as well...and also I was hoping to not be forgotten. Thank you Joy Unfolding.
D-bloc	Aug 25 2007 4:33 AM or maybe you could become a reggae band and call yourselves The Folded Joy...
Laura	Aug 24 2007 5:57 PM Nerds Unfolding? Awesome.
The 930	Aug 24 2007 12:38 PM For all you uninitiated out there, The Joy Unfolding is formerly known as Jamie Barnes & His Deepest Apologies (though Jamie Barnes is still known as himself). They're playing The 930 next Tuesday 08/28 with Paleo and The Parade Schedule. Come out...in droves.
Bobby Gilles	Aug 24 2007 3:28 AM Jamie, there's only one hottie in ya'lls band. Or I guess two if you count Rebecca. I couldn't resist adding the little twist in the second sentence. I live for moments like that.
Dirt Poor Robins	Aug 24 2007 2:34 AM I think the band should be called the Nerds Unfolding.
Jamie Barnes	Aug 23 2007 12:41 PM Look at all the hot people in this band. Maybe you should call it the sexy unfolding.
