First things first: is that your daughter in the picture? OH MU GOD, time flies! She's beautiful!

Did you see my pictures? I actually got to spend some 40 minutes with Brandon in 2007 when they came to Brazil for the first time! I interviewed him for Rolling Stone Brazil! I can't even tell you how psyched I was! Two dreams coming true at the same time! I wish it had been published in the magazine so I can send you a copy, but it was only at the website :( even this way, I got to meet my favorite band on behalf of my favorite magazine, my heart was exploding that day. And they did Oil and Water and Warning in the same day, minutes apart. It was almost too much to take!

I'm sending you the picture along with my address! I would LOVE to get another letter from you! I never forget the cute drawings you used to do in the pages to decorate them! Pure love!

I found you searching for your last name! crossing fingers that you didn't use a nickname ;) Have you been here for a while? I entered pretty much when it started, invited by Manoela Paixao. She's a great friend of mine who is, as ren puts it, "the queen of rock in Brazil" - she's helped them put together the meet and greet here last year, and many many other things! oh, yes! we saw them last year too, at a festival! It was pretty unbelievable, they hadn't been on the road, just came by South America for a quick and powerful visit - the set was almost perfect (it should have been much longe heheeh). Here, I posted this pic today:

Manu is the one standing by Mike like she's known him for years, and I'm the happy-go-lucky in a black and white checkered shirt by brandon's side! It was fast but excellent meeting them again! The downside is that I had them write a sentence of something they would like to say instead of just signing a record sleeve and I LOST THE PAPER. (to be continued)
