Wow!
I am so sorry for dropping off like that.
I had some weird stuff happen in the past few weeks.
I got really sick, traveled to strange places and had to sleep for about a hundred days. It was unfun. While I was recovering, I ate some super yummy things. That was fun.

I have been doing a bunch of writing for the next Train CD. It is hard work but fun at the same time. I suppose that's when you know that you're in a good place, when you actually love what you do. It gets to be seriously tiring though.
Also, I have some shows that are coming up soon and I'm really excited about all of them because some are acoustic, some are electric and some are with Train.

Anyway, I hope that you are all doing well and checking patmonahan.net and trainline.com for your dose of info.
I will be bringing back New Music Tuesday as well. I had to take a break because of downloading and that kind of weirdness.

I will keep up with you all from now on and please come out and catch a show when you can.
Love, Pat

So great to get an update! I hope you're feeling better after the long snooze, that you collected many memories on your travels, that you've been able to enjoy more yummy things and that you embraced the good weirdness of Life to use however you see fit :-)

I know the new Train writing is fantastic (don't even need to hear it...but can't wait to!) and I'm glad that you love creating the sounds we all love listening to...that adds an extra element of connection for me :-)

If you can get out to the northeast, I will certainly catch a show!

Love,

~Alison

Looking forward to August with Brandi, Pat!
That is SUCH a good fit, because you and Brandi are not just amazing singers, but wonderful people, besides.
Can't wait to hear "Pirate on the Run" performed live by two of my very favorite singers, and
performers!
Hope the new Train CD is going well!
Can't wait for it!

best wishes,
Ned

I'm so sorry to hear you've been sick..that sucks. Did some of your travels influence your writing? Are we in for some cool psychedelic toons? I've been to some of those strange places..they tend to be very colorful. Good to hear you're on the mend and looking forward to future projects and shows. Take care of yourself or the Universe will make you slow down again and 100 days is really long time to sleep!

Take care...take it easy and seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeya soon xoxo

Glad to hear you are feeling better, well rested and back to writing. I can't wait to hear what Train has in store for us. I was just thinking that we haven't heard from you in a while and knew that you were probably way busy. Please, please, please come back to Colorado. I wish I could make it to one of the shows in California, but not going to happen this time around. Flying to Las Vegas to see you back in February was great, but don't think the hubby will think too much of me flying to California too!! The next show I catch will have to be within driving distance--say Colorado Springs, Colorado????

Hope to see you soon!

Glad to hear from you Pat, we all love you and your music! I hope the people around you are inspiring you! Do you live in Seattle? I thought you lived in SFO. Both cities are beautiful! Can't wait to see you live again! Your music really speaks to me and I can relate to most of your songs.

Would love to "download" with you sometime! <{{{{{{{{{{420}}}}}}}}> ~ ~ ~~~

Love your biggest fan and soulmate,

My 13 year old daughter was playing "Her Eyes" on Itunes tonight....as I was walking through her room... I stopped in my tracks and was taken by surprise! What an amazing song, truly amazing. In an instant I was in a different place. Totally struck a chord for me! And I enjoyed sharing that moment with my daughter, who said at the same time as I did... this songs a keeper!!!! Thanks for doing what you do!! Michelle

Daaaamn! Thought you had abandoned us!!

Hope the illness wasn't too serious. You should have called me, I would have drove you to those strange places you were visiting. Always nice to "see the world", so to speak. And, good food....yum! Any leftovers? I can send you my tupperware.

I am faithfully checking in and waiting to get some good news about touring and Train. Dutifully waiting for the next street team assignment!!

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU IN VB. 8 DAYS, BUT WHO'S COUNTING??

Love,
Teresa

You're BACK! I am happy and relieved to hear from you, Pat. Sorry that you were so ill, but I am very glad that you have recovered and you're back to doing what you love.

Tuesdays have not been the same without a new song each week, and I am excited to see what surprises await us on your upcoming New Music Tuesdays. I am looking forward to all things Pat... solo and with Train. Hope to see you REAL soon somewhere in the NJ/NY area (even Philly will do).

Please take good care of yourself, keep eating those yummy things and be well.

With love,
Regina :)

Hey, Pat. :-) Glad to hear you're feeling better, man. {{{Pat}}} Some of the narsty wee buggies that hit folks, these days, are not fun, at all, fo' sho'.

It's wonderful to hear that you're writing. Your lyrics are always delightful, surprising and highly original. :-) Can't wait to experience a CD-full of delicious new "Train" tunes. :-)

Hope you have an amazing time at your upcoming gigs. :-) The one on the 28th with TLee and company should be tons o' fun for y'all. :-) Wish I could make that one. :-) But, you'll just have to give the boyz a few extra hugs for me, okay? ;-) {{{Pat}}}

Sending hugs, love and good thoughts to you and all our peeps. :-) xoxoxo

Pat, It's wonderful to have you back! I was worried that you might be over worked/ tired. You always give so much to your fans...don't forget to give the same back to yourself. It takes one to know one...as the saying goes. I'm sending you a BIG HUGE HUG and lots of healing vibes to keep you strong. Can you feel the love? Hope to see you real soon.

I'd love to see just you and you and the boys, but I have to priorities these days. hehe.

I am always the last one to comment...serves me right for logging on every other day.

Well, it's good to hear that you are feeling better, just in time. I do want you to be in MINT performing condition for my show in VB that I have been anxiously waiting months for!! I can't wait for more new music Tuesdays. I hope that you are going to play "America" at the Patriotic Festival. It would be great to hear it live!

Thanks for the update! Only 8 days to go! But, like Teresa says, "Who's counting??" :D
Happy Friday!!
