PLEASE come back to America. I just found you yesterday and saw today that you toured near my town when you were in Portland, Oregon. I expect it will be awile now, but i am hopeful you will come back. When you do, i will be there… with friends and a smile. Ive been having a shit time lately…struggling in my heart due to a pill addiction. My world has crashed and, with the love of my people, im ready to come back to myself. Finding you yesterday made me smile a genuine smile for the first time in long spell and your words reminded me of my sanity. Thank you for helping to restore my color, my soul.

Well done Perth boy! “white wine” has the ability to reduce me to a quivering heap. You have captured Perth family life to a tee. Omshanti shanti om.

Yeah baby, what a night! We were there and had a ball! Flew up from Victoria just to catch Tim at the Opera House. A night we will never forget.

I’m so pleased this great show was recognised. Congratulations Tim – you certainly deserve it a hundredfold! I am pleased for Ben Northey too – he added to the joyous feel of the concert and your interaction with him still makes me smile every time I (re) watch the program.
Nobody deserves it more than you, Tim. Congratulations.
Well done Tim you are worth loads of these awards. Xxx
Many congrats Tim!
