We've been hearing word...  
We've been hearing word that the CDs are arriving, and have been since the end of last week. We'd love to know what you think of the album, so let us know what you think!

Also, if you want to take the time to exploit your experience of discovering Michelle's music for the first time, or if you prefer to pour over your weeks, months, years of enjoying her music, please share it with us. Make sure to tell us if you'd like your words to one day be shared on the site.

And this is where I've put the cart before the horse (ie--I haven't mentioned any of the above to Mat or Michelle and really I'm just eager to hear what people have to say and to then share it with them; this is how I spend my friday night...).
