Hi, Mary (et al)-- I just noticed this thread; I and my friend Stephanie are in Floor 3, Row 2, seats 9 and 10. I am so looking forward to the chance (hopefully!) to meet some of you in person, after the silliness of being so close and not meeting at Red Rocks. :) Thanks for compiling this list! Ann...

Dearest Leonard,

On your 75th birthday, I wish you unexpected beauty, moments of surprise, joy in being awake and in inspiring so very much love. Thank you for succor, sanctuary, and rigorous challenge. May you (and all sentient beings) know peace today.

Humbly,
Annette

Oh, so wonderful! So deserving of the anticipation! Thank you so much, to everyone who worked on this. (And to everyone who contributed photos!) What a perfect birthday gift.

Oh, and silvergreen: I totally empathize. I have a two and a half-year-old, and I am just now beginning to feel like I can do a couple of things besides, as you say, living for him...
I adore motherhood, I adore my child, and man, it takes everything. Blessings on your journey, sister...

Ooh, I love the idea! I would be totally excited to participate. Thanks, Sasha... it would be such an honor to create/offer something.

Annette

You guys are very kind. And all very beautiful. To me, the beauty is all about how sincere and present each person seems in their picture, which I imagine has much to do with knowing why we're making them, and who for. :) (So Diana, you should stop thinking you could possibly have anything to be sel...

What fun. I can't wait to see the finished mosaic! It has been wonderful to see the photos others are sending, so I'll include mine here as well.
Can't wait for San Jose! Thanks again to all who imagined this project.
Peace, Annette

Oops Thanks for the correction, Diana. And sorry for leaving you out of my thanks, Pam. Here they are now: thanks. I'm apparently one of the procrastinators in good company.
I can't wait to see the finished product!

Dear Marie, Laura, Ladi Di, Thank you so much for all this work! What a gift of love you are giving and helping all of us to give. I've been silent most of the summer as I've dealt with some family crises, but I am still so grateful to have joined this community. I'll be sending my photo tomorrow. I...

Just because no one will ever suggest it, and because we have a stunningly devoted little fan club here:

Salt Lake City, Utah...
a wish, really, though I'll submit it as if it were a guess.

Annette

Super exciting. It will be fun to compare Isle of Wight with Live in London. I think LC's never been as textured and as wonderful as he is now, but it will be a fun adventure to go back.

From a relative newbie to the forum: I like the mosaic idea too. Is everyone invited to send a picture? If so, I also need instruction.

Thank you--
Annette

Hi, Diana-- Yes, now I know exactly who Mary and Lizzy are, from your description. :) I was so happy that the crowd was so enthusiastic; I loved standing Os after every song! That was a particularity of the Red Rocks audience that was especially sweet. Thanks for all the information. I've been looki...

Hi, Mary! Thank you so very much for the warm welcome! I am very grateful indeed to have found this sincere, devoted group of folks... And yes, if we get another North American chance, I very much want to meet people in person! Very cool that you were at both the Merriweather and the Red Rocks shows...

Ladydi, Lizzytysh, Novabella, and others, Thank you all for such careful and loving accountings of the concert! I am relatively new to this forum (since February), and in fact this is the first forum I've ever joined, so I think I am just barely catching onto normal forum etiquette--like introducing...
