Hey Joe, I'm from Brazil and have been a fan since "Not of this Earth" (still have the original vinyls of Not... and Surfing...).

Tonight in New York City will be the first time I see you live in the States (have been to all your shows in Brazil). The cool thing is I'll be taking my wife, who will be seeing you for the first time. She's was already into your music when I met her, and that was one of the "clinchers" for us to get together. I figured, "wow, a girl into Joe's music has to be really special!".

In any case, I'm looking forward to the show tonight. If you can squeeze in a request for her - please play either "I Believe" or "Starry Night" - it would be awesome.

All the best,
