Happiest of Annies, Kevin! You were my very first "regular person" to subscribe to FR&B! I was "born" in early August '21, and floundered around my first coupla months just comping a handful of friends as my only readers/subbies! So, thank you for that! You helped jump-start any "legitimacy" my little 'Stack corner has!

For "On Repeat" fans reading this, Kevin steps into the Tune Tag spotlight in early October...stay tuned for that....and Happy Birthday, Kevin, to you and Minnie Moore (whoever she is)!🎂🎉🥂🎼🎵👍

I think they will. I think ours will read a lot like the transcript of a podcast, quite frankly! Up close and personal! That'll be fun to work with, and I know fun to read!

Happy no. 2 Kevin! Happy to be here and contributing to those Pilot G-2s. (A favorite pen to draw with if there ever was one.)

Keep up the amazing work!

Congratulations Kevin! And thank you, thank you, thank you. For some incomprehensible reason, it is difficult to find a place that simply provides music talk. I love listening to music, but I also enjoy talking about listening to music. And listening to others talk about listening to music. On Repeat provides, and I hope abides.

Good work on hitting the two year mark! Happy I joined up this past year. I appreciate the wide variety of music and topics you cover and how active the comment section is. If a reader isn't walking away with a new thought or a new song a few times a month, it's their own fault.

You are such a great writer, Kevin, and I always enjoy your posts. I’ve discovered and rediscovered so much great music through your work. I also appreciate your clear writing, simple but sophisticated design layout and, above all, your consistency. strategy. Congrats on 2 years - very much looking forward to what’s next!

Thank you! That means a lot coming from you. I’d be remiss if I didn’t note how much you helped me to get going in the early days.

I hope I didn't oversell it. I love it for rainy saturday mornings pottering about the house. Actually, doesn't even need to be rainy.
