Last night I was on myspace and saw that Ginger was online (under the silverginger myspace page). Not knowing if its really him or someone else running it for him I sent an email. Basically I asked if it wasnt really Ginger, yet if they knew him, could they tell him Im forever thankful for his music. It has changed my life and helped it greatly.

So, to my shock today I found this in my inbox:

"Thank you for the kind words.
Good luck to you.

God bless
Ginger"

Im made up, thats amazing. But does anyone know or think it is really Ginger?
I know I could be dissapointed here...

It's him. That's his personal page, lovingly looked after by the man himself. :)

Yep, Ginger does a lot of his pages and chat himself - Which should be commended in this age of big egos and no talent.

Ginger has never got the credit he really deserves. Let's start a campaign to get him a peerage Ha Ha! Arise Sir Ginger - Who'd argue with that.

That's a nice little story. When the moment comes and I meet Ginger (and believe me, I am not driving for 30 hours to watch them play for an hour and drive away), I want to tell him "thank you for writing music that makes me happy to be alive" - I can't think of a better way to describe what he's done for me.

I remember many moons ago when it was just the silverginger.com website that was running and I emailed ginger using the address provided and got a reply from him.

My email was something along the lines of cancelling my holiday because the Wildhearts were reforming to play some gigs and i said they better be good.

To which he replied "if you don't like the gig then I'll pay for your holiday" and other stuff

I met him at the gig and told him about the email and needless to say there was no need for him to pay for my cancelled holiday cause the gig ROCKED!!!
