Dear One and All,
I wanted to write to apologise to those of you who travelled to the Rome gig and were told at the door that we had to cancel. Cancelling a gig is something we don't do easily; this is only the second gig in 3 years that we've cancelled. But we had to do it because I just couldn't physically sing at all. I've had a dirty dose of tonsilitis that is just about healing, but has been very annoying indeed. I wanted to say to you directly that I'm sorry, especially to all of those who took a lot of effort to be there, that the decision was taken so late in the day. The reason it was such a late decision was that I wanted to leave all the time I could to try to get better for the gig, but I simply couldn't sing.
I promise we're determined to come back to Rome and are already looking into when we can do it. I assure you it's a priority for us, so we'll keep you updated!
I'd also like to thank all of you who have sent lovely 'get well soon' messages, I think they're working and it means we won't have to cancel any more shows soon! Sometimes it's a really great thing knowing that people give a shit, and we're all on the same side here. So cheers.
If you're in Britain, enjoy election day and go exercise some democratic rights!! I just got back from the Ballot Box myself, and am revelling in the joys of the Secret Ballot Act of 1872.
Peace out.
Marcus

I just wanted to tell you that my kids introduced me to your music...I have fallen in love with the passion and articulation you show - my only negative is that I am not 20 years younger...you guys are awesome...I hope you create music for a long time to come!

They are playing Pukkelpop friday the 20th of august! Unfortunately, almost all the other bands suck. Belgian festivals are absolute winners in NOT programming your favorite bands on one day, they spread them so you have to buy a ticket for every day of their festival, I HATE it!

Dear Mumford and Sons You recently come to Toronto and your concert was one of the best I have been! A group of us travelled to Montreal to see you. The crowd was retarted, singing to loud for us to even hear you. The show was short and seemed not to have the same energy as the Toronto show.. So from a true and devoted fan, please rememeber those in the audience who are there at your show for all the right reasons!! Please come back to Toronto soon, and you will be welcomed with open arms!
