Hi,Great night at the robins last night-A mixture of being humbled,A celebration, And Sadness-It was a very emotive night, For me, As it was for everyone,Glen really fitted in well, (Kelly would have approved), The words I am hearing with reference to the Edinburgh,Dudley Gigs are awsome,but to be honest,What I expected,Keep rockin boys,You Inspire so many And your music/energy is unserpassable.
See you in Southport-Tell Gordon dont forget my drumsticks lol.

Hi Eric, it’s good to see your new website. I tell you that I will be translating in the measure of my time, your post in spanish language in our blog elo-secretmessages.blogspot.com.
My partner & friend Jorge Devincenzi, he was very friend of Kelly.
Very luck and we are to your order for what you need. Cheers

Hi Eric,
Great gig the other night. I would be happy to swap some Beatles stories with you and the others. My birth father is Lionel Morton, who was in the band The Four Pennies, out of Blackpool, in the whole Mersey Beat era, they use to support The Beatles at the Cavern and my father knew Lennon and McCartney well.

Hello Eric,
The gigs @ Dudley and Bilston were excellent. I admired your professionalism with the technical issues at the Robin2 with “Twilight”.
I’ve always rated your composition “Honest Men”. And I would love to hear it live again. Could you tell me what was your inspiration; what was the driver behind this track?
Regards,
Keith JS

I wait you remember me. I sent photos and a video to Michael your asistant.
I meet you in the street in Buenos Aires when you were walking by Florida Street recording the city in 2005 and Then we was with the great Kelly and other members of the Band in NH Hotel before and after the show
I remember too that I was invited to participate out of the estudio in Aspen FM in Buenos Aires 1996 when you made 2 radio interviews with Bev, then I meet oyu with my family in Much Acustic TV ,
Then in Chile 2003, of course with a few contact only in Buenos Aires 1994 and in Punta del Este 1999 – So I will be ever supporting to the band from South America.

Hi Eric, I’m thrilled that you are doing some gigs in Israel. I’ll put the word out to my contacts over there. One favour? I’ve asked one or two times recently but I would really appreciate it if you could spare a few minutes to lay out the inspiration behind what I consider to be one of your best compositions: Honest Men. Many thanx in advance. Best Regards; Keith Sinclair
#18 by Keith at May 27th, 2009
Apologies Eric … I just read your message of 16th May re: Honest Men in the ‘Music’ section!!! Thank you for taking the time to answer. I’d love to hear this track live again … maybe @ the Robin in October? This song has engendered quite a quite a few blogs and some discussion! In any case; I think you are a fine musician and songwriter sir. Enjoy Israel and [hopefully] see you in October. Rgds, Keith JS

Hi Eric
My wife and me were yesterday at the Rananana 2nd Israeli gig and it was great !!!
It was the soundtrack of my youth years and you did it awesome by performing the songs with the right harmonic vocals and playing the music instruments.
Thank you and your colleagues for a great unforgettable evening.
Hoping to see you again in Israel
Ori

To Mr. Eric Troyer!
Your creation and performance of the advertisement
for IBM’s typewriter division circa 1984 when the ad
with your words, vocal and instrumentation,”We’re your type!” was absolutely tremendous. (I’d rank ELO’s “VW ‘Bubbles’ commercial and some of the early Saturn commercials as second and third place.)
Your contribution to pop culture was not only tremendous, but you were the first to soften the image of Big Blue and change it forever… for the highest and greatest good! Cheers to you!
I recently found it on youtube and it’s a treasured item! All best wishes! marc barlow in st. petersburg, florida
