Thanks Damien for such a fantastic night!! You were so generous with your time, and it is sooooooo exciting to have heard a preview of your beautiful album!! I can't wait to hear it again ~ in fact I can't wait to own it so I can listen to it again and again!! I think your album shows a big part of your heart, so it can't fail to be a winner!!

Thank you Damien - it was so generous of you to share this creation with us, and even more generous of you and Stuart to spend so much time with us - it was sooo appreciated You've got such a winner on your hands! You were so right, this is such a bigger sound, and it's different from what you've done before, yet still completely you! I was worried when you said it was a bigger sound that you might get slightly drowned-out by everything else, but it's the opposite - we hear more of you somehow, which is definitely what we want What really blew me away was the song writing! The songs had a kind of organic shape to them, the way they progressed - they didn't take predictable routes, I was constantly being surprised by what I heard next. On top of that they were so catchy, and had such a strong sense of story - I found myself listening to the lyrics and thinking 'yeah, I can relate to that'. Meant to tell you that last night, but you were kind of busy ;D But I can totally honestly say that the album is BRILLIANT - love all your originals, from the ones you recorded years ago to the songs on WWL, and these are no exception - in fact, they are even better. We knew it would be unbelievable - and you've exceeded all expectations

I would like to also express my gratitude to Sony for the use of their facilities and refreshments.....oh and also almost kick-starting my choral career ...drat.....missed by that much. We were willing, however the true choralists may not have appreciated our efforts ;D Thank you to Annette and Vanessa for all your work, I hope you were able to retrieve valuable information from our surveys.......love your enthusiasm. Thank you again Stu and Damien.........amazing!!!!!!

Damien I could never thankyou enough for the wonderful experience you gave us on Wednesday night. But thankyou from the bottom of my heart I am totally blown away by your generosity to us all. You really are a very special man. Remember June is everything I'd hoped it would be and MORE! You have every right to be so proud of it. It's such a well crafted album with beautifully written songs. Your lyrics are incredibly image invoking-the story is there- we will all soon get to listen to it again (and again) and we will then find everything you put into it -the only "down" feeling I have from Wednesday night was that we were only skimming the surface of this amazing album with one listen. Your good friend Stuie is a hoot! He charmed us all as well! How's it going man? Thanks Stuie for embracing the madness that is the Damienites with such gusto! You make a VERY good Damienite yourself...welcome to the club!! I'm trying so hard not to use hyperbole here.. but it's almost impossible. I will always Remember August!!! (oh dear very bad pun!! ) Thanks Damien -you truly are a star!

I haven't posted in this thread yet because I just can't form any coherent words about the experience that was teh Damienite "Remember June" Preview Listening Party. I am still feeling very emotional about the whole evening! (or is it just that my life is very emotional atm...lol!) Damien - Thank you seems totally inadequate but I'll say it anyway. THANK YOUThe music you (& Stuart) have created on this album is so perfectly crafted and so beautifully moving on all kinds of levels. Your dedication to your art and graciousness to your fan base are inspirational, and I feel so feel privileged to have been there.
