To My Genuine Online Fans

I want to say, I would like to give you more online - songs, videos, live shows - to keep you connected and involved in what I'm doing.  Due to circumstances - living conditions not being great these past years, no help from anyone - I've had to do what I can alone to keep this Music progressing.  Since I was essentially playing for free live online and very few people were donating tips and very few were purchasing downloads of recordings, I found I was getting a fairer return for what I do playing out on the streets.  This is the reason I've been away for so long.  Since I was on my own, I had so much to do I couldn't keep both going so it had to be either online or in person, and in person provided the funding I needed to carry on.  I would like to stay connected with my genuine online fans and not disappear for so long but its a two-way thing.  I've explained many times to people (and on this website) why I don't want to play in pubs/bars.  People who liked what I do outside on the streets would often say they wish they could listen to me in a better environment.  Well, for now, this is the best I can do... to play live from here to live wherever you are.  But to continue this I need your support.  If I am supported sufficiently online I don't have to go elsewhere so much.
