					Hi Paul - I'm in the US but have become a big fan of your music.  I got to meet you briefly after your appearance at the London Palladium with Jimmy Buffett last month.  Thanks for signing my ticket!  It made my night. Keep on doing what you do!

					Hi Paul, I got the poster framed, the one you signed for me after your concert on Sunday night in Cookstown. I have to say it looks great. I have it for auction on Saturday 28th September, at a fundraiser night I am doing for the Neurological Ward in the RVH, following the life saving operation they done on me on 12th October 2016. It’s strange that I had my brain hemorrhage in Strabane, and a man from Strabane has donated this to help me raise money for the Ward. Thanks again. Seamus Mc Glinchey.

Cookstown.



PS, I would send you a photo of it, but I can’t see where I send the photo.

					Hi Paul...a newcomer to your music...and your guitar style to...I.m interested in your tuning for...”I want you to want me”...have tried it in other tunings..but doesn’t sound right! Saw you at the Cropredy festival a few years ago....you were special!!

ManyThanks,  Lennie.
					
					
						
							Admin Reply:
						 
						
						Hi Lennie,

I tune the guitar from 1st to 6th as DBGDGC. Then I capo on 2nd fret which makes the actual notes EC#AEAD. You'll need at least medium gauge strings (13 to 56) as the bottom string down to C will flap about with anything lighter. Have fun!

					Hello Paul, you’ve made so many fantastic albums in your career and we’ve seen you play many times, but l just gotta say thank-you for doing Hard Station - especially live at the Half Moon. That album means so so much to us. Meant so much then means so much now. It was a privilege to see you with that classic line-up of wonderful musicians. Jim

						Thanks Jim. Always good to get feedback like this. That was a fun album to make. I always enjoyed playing the Half Moon!

					Paul, I am a Youth that's inclined to Ramble, a song I've loved for decades, came into my head again recently and on looking on Inernet it says it was written by Cara Dillon. But she was born in 1975 and I bought Welcome Here Kind Stranger in 1978. Do you now who wrote it?
					
					
						
							Admin Reply:
						 
						
						Hi Tom, It wasn't written by Cara Dillon. It's an old traditional song, author unknown. She may just have claimed an 'arrangement' of it?

Thanks for the feedback!

					At Limerick gig last. We know Paul is top notch. First time seeing Theo and his band. They are very good musicians. Unfortunately  the Paul/Theo mix doesn't quite work. The lads on stage seemed to be having a ball, but that's not what most of us came to hear. Paul on his own or Theo & band on their, fair enough but not together please.

						Hi Brian, sorry you didn't enjoy the combination of Theo and me. Thankfully you were very much in a minority! Thanks for the message, all the same!

					Hi Paul, Want to say thank you, Theo and the band for a really fantastic evening on Sunday at Vicars Street. Rate it as one the best concerts we have been to and well worth the trip from Dorset. Good luck to Bairbre Anne too. Good luck with the other dates

						Hi Suzan,

Thank you for your message. I'm feeling ADORED and it's nice! No plans to re-visit your country right now I'm afraid. Your immigration and revenue don't make it easy for us European artists. Maybe next year! Keep the faith! Paul.

					Dear Paul



I am wondering and hoping you have plans to come and play in Scotland .. 

thanks Gilloan
					
					
						
							Admin Reply:
						 
						
						Hi Gilloan

Thanks for your message. There is movement in the direction of a concert of Andy Irvine and me with Donal Lunny and Kevin Burke in Dundee on March 21 though not yet confirmed. It will, however, be a Traditional music program based on our album of 1977 and I wont be singing any of my own compositions.

					Thank you so much for your music!  It is so difficult to put into words just what it means to me.  But your songs have gotten me through difficult times as well as joyful ones.  Just absolutely beautiful, soulful and classic.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!  Hoping to get to Ireland to hear you play sometime soon.

					Hi Paul. Glad to see you (and Andy) are still going strong. I read you might be working on a book/memoirs. That is a great idea. Would love to read it.

All the best,

Grant (your driver on The Planxty UK tour 1975 - now living in California)

						Hi Grant! it's been a while! Thanks for the message. All is good here. Recently done a tour with Andy Irvine. Unfortunately piper Liam passed away last year. Hope you're enjoying life in California!

					Hi Paul,

I'm a 26 year old man from Derry.

Just wanted to say you inspired me to play and sing since  I was about 12, although humbled to realise there's no chance I'll be tenth as good as you all these years on!

Keep er lit! 

Ps. Any chance of an acoustic version on hard station?? Can't find one online heard you sing it on radio once, and it blew me away.

						Hi peter,

Thanks for the message and vote of confidence! I might have a go at Hard Station solo. Thanks for reminding me!

					Paul, sadly I have came late to your music after reading the opinion piece by Susan McKay in the Guardian about Lyra McKee which referred to The Island. Thank you - wonderful lyrics and music. Best wishes from the Himalayas

						Hi Roger. I think you're the first to write to me from Nepal! Thank you for your positive thoughts. It was indeed a terrible thing and hopefully not an indication of a return to violence in Northern Ireland.
