Robin's great!!

Great guy!!

Odd post.  Just yesterday or the day before I had sent him an e-mail about his links.  Strange timing.  ;-)

ah! I love to see that Robin is a fan og Alex Grey! He makes fantastic art! Have 3 picture from hes work myself! Its great!

I love reading people's links on their websites because I am nosey and like to see what other people think about ;D

I sent him the link to postpals in a letter I wrote to his page ages ago.  He did not post my letter that time, but I guess he liked the link anyway ;D

It's really great to see musicians having such an interest in worthy causes. Despite what many GnR fans might say about his playing there is no doubt he's a really great guy.

that's cool.  just goes to show how robin really does seems to appreciate the concept of sharing

if you guys come across anything in any of the linked sites that you appreciate/enjoy i think you should feel free to let him know.  :)

Thank you Eva!   : ok:
Robin seems to be a great guy, I' d really like to know more about him.

moveon.org is not about enlightenment, it is a site for character assasination by the left.

Haha you know I was just about to comment on how its great that Robin is not involved in partisan politics as I feel too many artists are too vocal about it today... then I read your post and visited the site and the headline is "Oppose Congressional Republicans' plan to respond to Hurricane Katrina by cutting nealry a trillion dollars from vital national services".  Oh well....

Do you guys have to turn this into another Conservative v Liberal thread? we already have enough of them. I'll be the first to admit that I do frequent such threads, but this is about Robin Finck's website, not Liberal websites.
