Hi Milton

Thanks for all your efforts to make the gig happen, it was incredibly moving and truly awe inspiring to watch so many great people and musicians having such a wonderful time.  The world needs more people like you.  Best of luck in the future.

Hi Milton & Bridget

 

Just a word to say what a fantastic concert and than you so much for putting it all together. It was a privilege to be there to hear such wonderful playing from everyone. Congratulations to Bridget for her wonderful tremolo playing (what balls she's got to play such a piece in such company!) and to Milton for his stylish jazz. Truly inspirational! The ensemble at the end was wonderful. (any chance of a decko at the arrangements for us to use with our student ensembles?)

 

We wish you continuing good health and please send us a season ticket for the rest of your fund raising concerts.

 

Love

Prof Fly,

 

Awesome awesome awesome. The recital rocked like geology. I 'll never forget it- the standard was absolutely ridiculous - truly inspring and mindblowing especially for ham fisted chord oiks like myself. PLease let me know if you are doing anything even remotely this stiffy inducing again. Also you looked great.

Dear Milton,

 

I am a fellow research nurse who accompanied Alison Butlin to your

concert on Saturday. I just wanted to tell you what a truly wonderful

evening it was for me. I was extremely moved by your strength,positivity and good humour. Also the beautiful music you and your friends performed

was stunning.I saw John Williams in concert some years ago, so to see him again was an added bonus.

I will definitely look out for future concerts,meanwhile I have

discovered your website and am telling the Leukaemia patients I meet, of your inspirational achievements in the hope you may inspire them too!

 

With all good wishes to you and your lovely wife,Bridget.

To Milton and Bridget and all the guitarists on Sat night - what a fantastic performance!! Alex (13yrs)who has been playing Classical guitar for 16mths now was completely inspired. It was all superb but the highlight was seeing all 9 guitarists in thats semi-circle playing. Strawberry Fiels was haunting. We`ll come - all the way from Penrith too - to another one. Hope to see you Bridget (& Milton) when you next visit the old home town.  Carolyne James (nee Higgins)

 

 

Hi Milton,

 

Thank you very much for the wonderful and emotional gig on Saturday. IÕm still humming all the tunes today! It was really brilliant to see the 3-D you strutting round on stage as opposed to the 1-D photo version.

 

Much love

Sxxx

 

Dear Milt,

 

What can I say?! It was the most special night I've

had in ages - it was a real honour to be invited.

 

p-a-m-i-a-m-i-a-m-i. Ah!!!

 

I hope we can do it again sometime very soon, and that

I can still play in your cool band!

 

Love,

Dear Milton,

 

Thanks for your email. The concert was an OUTRAGEOUS success......you caried it off in such a fun, natural and sincere way - you inspire a lot of people with your work, so please keep it upÉ.

 

ÉI REALLY look forward to making music with you. Please send my fond regards to Bridget and congratulate her on her playing - she played with deep musicality and projected great warmth. And your improvisations were inspired/ nimble/searching/mercurial (particularly the last number the three of you played).  

 

Warm regards

just to say that milton's concert was really fantastic......... i have never seen or heard john williams play live and i was not disappointed. the music was uplifting and milton's arrangement of 'strawberry fields' for both electric and acoustic guitars was wonderful.

looking forward to the next one milton,

love,

Hi Milty Way,

 

My gosh, Saturday evening was something very special and I am so glad we could be a part of it.  I felt priviledged being part of that audience and watching such talent on stage!  I loved every minute of it and hope there'll be more concerts like that.

 

I am so proud of you and Floyd (and every other bugger out there fighting their illnesses).  This past year, you have both gotten over some of the biggest hurdles that anyone alive would  dread to face.

Look at you both now and what you've done!  Inspired THOUSANDS of people around the world who haven't been lucky enough to have your inner strength and positive outlook.

 

You're both reluctant heroes but whether you like it or not, you coped better than most people would have and to have positively inspired so many people along the way and that is just wonderful.

 

My heroes.

Dear Milton,

It was wonderful to meet you "in the flesh" last Saturday and to hear all the extraordinary music performed/written by the best of the best! (Nice to see Bridgette too since I had only seen her on video before last Saturday.)

Your final two arrangements for the whole crew were definite highlights! My friend was also so thrilled with the evening and we both thought that it was incredible that you got all those super players together for a fundraiser.

You are a good man!

Thanks so much for inviting me.
