Wayne,
You put alot of time into your website. It shows. Is this
entirely your work? I know I spoke with you about this before,but I wasn't sure this was all your work.
If it is,nice job!
Zoey-Syracuse,NY
Thanks Zoey! Yes-I put the whole site
together and maintain it-but CAROLINE BLUE wouldn't be what it is without the sum of ALL of it's members.
Otherwise I'd just call this band "Wayne." :)
Actually-I couldn't do that even if I wanted
to cause there's already a band called "Wayne".....Go figure....

Wayne,
Well, you're always asking me what I've been doing with my
painting. I got inspired awhile back but tried to ignore it cuz it was a subject I'm not very good at.
I hoped and hoped this idea would go away on its own,but all it did was fester,and give me the worst
case of painter's block I've ever had. Let me know if you can't get it open-cuz this one is all for you.
RnRPaintGrl-Syracuse,NY
Wow-that is great! Very cool! It is very much appriciated
RNRPG....To see her painting,click on the link to our FAN ART. Thank you very much!

Wayne,
......You dunt like post those (pictures) anywhere
do u?......
The Queen of Skullz-Somewhere in Cyberspace.
Yes,this is from
a legit email.Not everyone uses their real name.The reason I put that part on here is to address an issue.Some
people see me at clubs all the time taking pics-it's what I do. They wonder if I'll post them on the
site-specifically the FANS,FRIENDS, & FREAKS page. The only pics that will be posted on that page
will be from CAROLINE BLUE events and that person has to have a member of the band in the pic with them.
Hope this clears up things! Thanks!

Wayne,
....I also heard that you cut your hair?! I heard about
6 inches and more to go??!! Tell me this isn't true!!....
Jules-Fulton,NY
Well,I did get it cut.Still long,but not as....Come Halloween it will be shorter and curlier as well.
Wanna see? Come out to Bleachers! (See SHOWS). Take care.

Wayne,
No problem for coming out the other night...Had alot
of fun seeing many people I haven't seen in awhile...I meant every word I said when I told you this was
the best version of Caroline Blue I have seen yet....You seemed way more comfortable up there on stage
with a solid rhythm section behind you...I was VERY impressed with what I saw...
The
drummer reminded me so much of my old friend Paul Grillo behind those drums it was scary (remember him?
He was the 21 year old drummer that died from Czar and New Reign).
If I get a chance
tomorrow at work I'll post a message on the forum...or I could hire a man to break that little drummer
guy's legs if he doesn't continue to play with Caroline Blue....I don't think he realizes just how hard
you work at promoting Caroline Blue...I see every email you send,every flyer you post...you're a hard
worker man...and I respect that very much. :-)
Latah,
Big Billy B.-The Back Alley Boys
Big Bill,
Thank you very much for the props-it's VERY much appriciated. I try. Glad
you had a good time last Saturday. I think that if there was a MVP award for that night it would go
to "Small." He pulled thru with flying colors-and with basically only 1 rehearsal with the band! As for
him staying with the band,it would be great-but that's totally his decision. And whatever it is,I will
respect it. I mean,what other guy can do all that powerhouse drumming while wearing leather pants???
:) For those of you who may have missed the show,this upcoming Friday (9/12) will be your chance to catch
"Small" in action! Go to the SHOWS page for details! Again Billy-thanks for the props-even though my
work has just begun.....

care.

Hey,
I hear you got a new drummer....Ken Simpson!! Excellent
choice one of the best in the business. I knew him back in the Holly and The New Yorker days....looking
forward to seeing him play out again!
SexyNCuse-Somewhere in Cyberspace...
Unfortunately,Kenny is no longer with the band.Read all about it in the NEWS section.

Hey Wayne & Ham,
I'm an old friend of Jamie Criscione...Lewis...whatever
his name is. Guessing that Jim checks this site out and knowing his ego I thought I'd post and inquire
about him. Kind of bust his balls and keep him thinking.....
Wayne,I don't know if you remember
me,but I actually hung out with Jim when you joined the band (FRONT ROW).....I think I actually have
some old video of you playing at The Lost Horizon. I stumbled across your site while searching the net
for anything musical that related to another old friend,Fran Scaglione. Jim has him listed as his favorite
drummer in his facts stats thing. Glad I found the site. Always thought you were an excellent guitar
player. Randy was good too,but kind of boring to watch. You have flash man.
Ham,you probably
don't remember me. I was friends with Chaz & JC-The All Americans. I was also a cameraman for many of
your live shows and a few of the shows taped at the boxing gym....I watched the interview that you guys
did for UMTV-it was on their website-and thought that you looked familiar. Looks like you've added some
meat to your bones since the wrestling days...you were a stick then...hair looks the same.
Small fucking world! Anyway,I'm glad I found the site. Would love to hear more tunes.Rock on.
Not JC-Somewhere in Cyberspace...
Thank you very much for the kind words. It's easy
to tell what Jim's name is.It's Jim unless he puts on that jacket that he wore on stage back in 92-92....then
he becomes JAMIE CRISCIONE-SAVIOR OF CIVILIZATION & PROTECTOR OF ITALIANS EVERYWHERE!!!.....Just ask
him,he'll tell ya....(HA!). Very cool to hear from you-I vaguely remember the name-didn't you help tape
a show at Big Bertha's one time? I think I have that on tape. I'll keep ya informed on what's going on
here and hope everything is going well.Take care.

Nice job guys!!!! LOVE the ICEMAN!!!
Marvereno-Ozone
Thanks dude! Marv's talkin about the new CAROLINE BLUE video "Mine,Mine,Mine" which was on this
night on UMTV. The Iceman is the $1200 guitar I was using-it's an original 1978 Paul Stanley Ibanez Iceman
guitar. Very awesome!!

Hey Wayne,
Just wanted to let you know that I FINALLY checked
out your website. It's great!

Take care.

BLUE will be doing some more stuff like that with UMTV in the near future!

Wayne,
Got the video! "Mine,Mine,Mine" kicks ass! This is the kind
of thing we SHOULD be seeing on Empty-Vee; thank God for UMTV at least! (Now,if only they'd start broadcasting
in Fulton!) I'll be checking out the rest of the tape after I send this, and will give you my impressions,
for whatever THEY'RE worth! lol Just want to say HUGE thanks once again for the tape; and I'll do my
best to send people to the CAROLINE BLUE site. My compliments to you and the band on a job VERY well
done! Take care.
West Side Dave-Fulton,NY
Dave,
Very cool that you got
the tape and you liked it! Of course,tell us what you think. We wanna hear it all-the good and the bad!
:) Keep watchin out for more CAROLINE BLUE stuff on UMTV-we've only just begun!

Brother Wayne!
Thought 2 drop U a note-your June 13th show-Wow!
I had a great time. You've got a great band. I'm very happy for you! Wayne-Could you send me some of
your upcoming dates? It was great 2 CU! Best wishes-
Brother Dave-Syracuse,NY

Wayne,
I was on the site last night. It looks good. I have
to say one thing, you do not generate any so-so feelings. They either feel very strongly for or against
whatever they have to say. What did poor Ham do to deserve that kind of comment? Feed him chips?? Really.
People never cease to amaze me. The poll was an easy one. Still waiting for the CD! I will take a look
at the UMTV site for the new video. I am glad things seem to be moving forward for you and that they
continue to do so.
Later,
Susan- Albany,NY
Thanks Susan-great to hear
from ya! I know the LETTERS page is alittle slow since we put up the Forum and the Guestbook is always
entertaining,but it's great to still get emails. Personally,I think once Ham put on that jacket during
the interview-all bets were off! (HA!) I'll let you-and anyone who will listen-know when the video can
be seen! It's awesome! Thanks again Susan. Take care.

Hey Wayne!
I was wondering when you would get email. I hope
you remember me. I used to hang out with .......... and had all kinds of photos of you with FOUR LARGE
MEN. I didn't know you were in another band now. Last I knew it was Tastes Like Chicken. Hope to see
ya or hear from you soon. Let me know when you guys are playing. Thanks.
Paula-Somwhere in Cyberspace.
Thanks Paula-yeppers,I remember ya. Glad you found your way to this site. I got ya
on our mailing list and we should hopefully be playing out soon. Thanks again. Take care.

Wayne,
Thanks for dropping by the site AND for the double guestbook
sinage!.....I checked out the Mp3 clips; they ROCK! I really liked "I'm No Angel,"-that one has potential.
And it was nice to see that the 2 live tracks were recorded in lil ol' Fulton! Looking forward to seeing
you guys here sometime. Talk to ya later...

Hey dude bet you ain't got idea who this be. Wish I played drums
I would help. But I will turn everyone I know on to your web. You got some cool stuff. Sorry I missed

I can't believe he would ask for $50,000 a year-especially
when you're only paying me $40,000. I am grateful for the health benefits though.
HAM-Syracuse,NY
|
|
3/8/2003
$50,000 per year plus health benefits and 401k in a written contract will
get you this pro drummer for 12 hours a day,5 days a week. That's cheap if your serious. I also write,play
bass,guitar,and keyboards.

Dear CAROLINE BLUE,
Hi Wayne! I get your printouts,but they come
too late for me and Lori to see you.I just got the one today that says you're suppost to play at The
Red Door North on 2/22/2003.Obviously I wasn't able to make it! I'd really like to come and see you and
so would Lori so let us know a week in advance.Keep sending your letters.My new address is (..............).
Jane-North Syracuse,NY.
Hiya Jane! Believe it or not,it WAS sent out a week early
this time! Obviously,the change in address caused a delay.Sorry you guys missed the show-it was a good
one! Unfortunately,there are times when the snail mail newsletters aren't received in time.That's why
we urge everyone to sign up via email-cause then you can get the newsletter right away! Plus you can
also get updates on stuff like last minute shows and stuff.We will be sending out a little notice sometime
soon urging people to switch to the email signup.We won't cancel the snail mail people-people can't help
if they don't have a computer-but with the costs rising,it's sometimes hard to get things out promptly.Hope
to see you guys at the next show!

"new" to me!).It has been WAY too long since I've seen you on stage! It's kinda funny,I was going to
go to the Sub-Urban show and decided not to at the last minute,otherwise I would've seen you there! OK,well
I wanted to wish you a happy birthday so there you have it! Take care.
Julie-Fulton,NY

Wayne,
I am so sorry I could not make it to the show.I thought I had
planned so carefully in order to show up for the first live show since I met you.Only to have fate intervene
and along with work being such a disaster,managing to park the SAAB in a snow bank and burning out the
transmission was just icing on the cake.I really hope things went well!!! Hopefully,I will be able to
make the next one.
All my best,
SEA-Albany,NY
No problem-soory to hear about
your car problems.But that's what you get when driving a SAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBB!!! :-D There were
a few problems,but overall it was fine.Hope to see ya at the next one.Take care.
