"I checked out a few tracks from your website, and I REALLY liked it. I do a specialty show featuring "the overlooked & underplayed". In a nutshell, that means... (a) album tracks from well known bands, (b) bands who released an album or two and were totally overlooked, (c) indie bands that are worthy of being heard. ...this is NOT college radio. I'd like to use a track from you guys on the shows..." Tim McKay - 105.3 FM The Fox - Production Manager-Astral Radio Atlantic-Fredericton, NB, Canada "This has a crazy cool sound to it that I really enjoyed. Nice!" A Comment from our IUMA web page... "Good morning Mister Joe Gande The Godsend Sessions, my name is Antonio Augusto Cesar Junior, I live in Brazil, in the middle of a jungle, the Amazon Forest, at State of Pará, so if you take a look at the map, at north of Brazil, Belém is the capital. So I´m sorry by bothering you, but I love your songs, all the instruments well played, everything amazing and fantastic, that´s because I love music, mainly Rock, Pop, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal. Please, if you can do me a favor, so this is important to me, you could send to me a PROMO CD from your musics, the way you play your songs is really fantastic, please, if you can do this to me, so if you give me the permission to play your songs in a FM Station here in my city, ok, if you don´t give me the right to do it, believe me I won´t play. I don´t lend my cd´s to anybody I keep them at my bedroom, only to me hear them. I´m 41 years old, but I love music,this is very important to me. I really thank you if you can do this dream to become true, if not, is a great pleasure to write an e-mail to a great band. Thanks again and God blesses you in your musician life." Antonio Augusto Cesar Junior - Brazil "Nice site... however, Im not too concerned with this world and what people think of me. They'll perish, too. Besides, much more important realities await thee.

I had a terrific time at your gig the other night, and you guys played a terrific show. I was most impressed by the diversity of the songs. Each one really seemed to have it's own feel and draw upon it's own inspiration. You are truly a great songwriter. Take care bro, it was great seeing you and Craig again. Peace! Chris Bride(Uranium235) - NYC I LOVE it when I come across incredible music. There are so many great bands on MySpace!

Thanks, Joe! :)) Glenda-Oklahoma Myspace.com Hey Joe and Band,This is Ben, Mikey's friend from the other day. I've been listening to your music a lot lately... and at first I thought wow this is really good, but now its really starting to grow on me, and I'm thinking oh man this is freakin awesome. But whats even cooler, is that such a great artist and musician can be such a cool guy. Even though you did comp the last slice of pizza, it was still a great pleasure to meet you and see you in everyday life, and then come home and listen to the music you've made. No oversized ego, nothing elitist about ya... just a damn cool guy with a great band. Ben T., 16yrs, CT. (AWESOME TITLE:) Drew me right in... so glad it did. (AWESOME LYRICS:) Well written...
