And that my friends is why Carrjo, Van and the rest of us hop in our cars and travel incredible distances to see this band. Can’t help but feel the love!
don’t forget Danado and owllover hopping on a PLANE to see them both in Arizona and in their beloved homestate of VERMONT!! this is BY FAR the best thing that has happened to me all day…THANK YOU MATT FOR PUTTING A BIT OF GOOD IN AN OTHERWISE CRAPPY DAY!! love love loved it!!!
Is it any wonder? (To quote one of my favorite Jon Cleary songs …) You guys are just awesome … As are all the comments above! You attract a high quality level of fans … And me. “Brag about seeing you” is my favorite so far. It’s easy to brag about seeing you!
Hipcast from Matt - now that is totally hip, and I am loving it! Sure would love to hear more hipcasts from this band with such a great heart and soul. Like all that commented before, it’s just these personal bits that we’re allowed to share with them that help fuel the fire. There are other bands that have some good music out there, for sure- but do they have the heart and soul of a Nocturnal??? Nuff said . . .
I’m on-line to unwind after completing a day-and-a-half project from [the netherworld], and this message helped. I’m an eye and voice person — don’t know about the eyes, but Matt has a great voice, and I agree with everyone else that this band is so easy to love.
Hey thanks Matt we love everything we can get from you guys. You are so giving. See you Friday in Maine. We have smallish Posse contengency 10-12 coming up to see you guys. Can’t wait.
Oh wait is actually coming down to see you.
Umm Karen - May I say Matt is very easy on the eyes. But what is more appealing is his easy manner if you are lucky enough to have a conversation with him face to face. Oh, and his eyes positively sparkle and shine espeically about those he passionate about - Ireland and of course music to name a few . . .

Oh, come on people, that Matt guy is a total dick. Can’t you hear it in his voice?! I can. I totally hear dick.
Yes…
I am kidding.
Someone had to break-up this love-fest with some humor. I mean, I think this thread actually has saliva on it from you all. But, if anyone deserves your love-spit, it’s Matt. He’s totally sweet. And, edible. And, he’s got a stache.
Snowbird: Thanks for the confirmation about Matt. And, I have learned not to worry about tiny little errors or omissions that don’t obscure the meaning of my post – we knew what you meant – hug.
Thanks for the shout out Matt! Glad to hear that you will keep doing what you do, because I know I could never get my fill of it. Seeing GPN live brought music back into my life. They egnighted the energy inside me that had been laying dormant since Phish stopped touring, and I had two babies. I wish I could be at every show, but am thankful that I will catch two this summer!
And Matt, tell Grace that she makes me feel damn proud to be a woman!
Oh Van, no worries…the band knows me all too well… Plus I was kinda’ hoping for that, and then maybe it would lead into an all out blog war. You know, for publicity sake;) You could quote a lot of things out of context from what I wrote (aside from the obvious). I kinda’ like “woman threatens to eat drummer on band blog” the best.
Good, but I think you have to sneak in something about cannibalism and/or mustaches. Is this the blog master? I’ve heard great things about you. You’re doing a fab job with this site. I come here now for the latest pics and updates.
No, Mr. Matt is a Mets fan (poor-poor man). After Pedro defected from the Nation I sent Matt my framed candid photo of Mr. Martinez. It was like a divorce. I don’t like to talk about it.

Need an edit button here for those of us who can’t get it right the first time
toofarnorth 06.24.08 at 3:32 pm
snowbird - - agreed on the edit button
The audioblog is a great idea - thanks for doing it Matt
And agree that it is a pleasure to “sell” GPN to people I know.

Looking forward to Friday

I like “band asks blogger to deliver restraining order to woman”, that’s got a nice ring to it eh?
Schwing!

k. cortez 06.26.08 at 10:10 am
I’m fairly certain that most cannibals do indeed sport mustaches, does that help?
Also, did Matt used to play for Oakland?

I kid, I kid. Is Matt a Sox fan or something?
