“The rugger” (the guy who loaned the rug) here and I just have to thank you so very much for everything. Your show is the best, most emotive, most necessary thing I have ever seen on a stage. The hug you gave me backstage changed my life. You are such an amazing human being. Thank you for what you do. Thank you for all the work you are putting into this tour. You are changing minds and brightening the path for so many people. <3

My boyfriend and I were in attendance and it was, truly, a magical evening- heartbreaking and wonderful and hilarious all in equal measure- and somehow you were able to convince my grumpy metalhead of a partner that amazing music can, indeed, exist without blast beats! Thank you so much for offering so much (for so long)!

This may be a shot in the dark, but it’s worth a try. I was at the AFP show in Atlanta. I was the guy who loaned her the rug, so I was one of the last to leave the show. I accidentally left a brown paper bag of merch on the bench outside the venue. It had the artbook and the art prints. The artbook is sold out, and I was crushed that I lost it. If anyone found it or even has a copy of it they’d be willing to sell me, please let me know. Thank you!

Was there with my best friend. I turned 30 that day, I didn't think I'd make it that far. Thank you.

First time attending an Amanda Palmer event. Thank you for a great experience.

My friend and I were the ones with full size poster board signs in yellow and pink highlighter colors. I left Clearwater at 7am that day and picked her up in Gainesville and we drive all day to get there early enough to be a part of the wedding. As a closeted bisexual and passing as cis but gender non conforming person, this was my first gay wedding to attend! Thank you to the lovely couple for letting me attend. Amanda, you sang “In My Mind” in front of me on your ukulele and it was truly surreal. I found your music after my abusive father died (he threatened to kill me mom at gunpoint in front of me as a child as he kidnapped me), my husband walked out 8 weeks later, and I was starting what would become an identity crisis (leaving a conservative home) and a relationship that would lead to a mental break/sexual assault/restraining order/2 yrs of therapy work. Working thru that and the stages I went thru are 100% covered in that simple song. Thank you. I was afraid of losing my mental health gains with all the attacks on human rights going on so blatantly, but that road trip with my friend and the laughing and tears and sharing we had at the concert and drive up and back has really steeled and strengthened me. I will never forget it. Thank you for making light.

I've been to very few shows in my life, and never been moved to tears by music...until we saw you perform in Atlanta. My god what a performance. Thank you Amanda.

Went to the show with a friend. Your comments about Anthony only telling you what to do only ONCE in your life... I wish I had someone like that in my life at that same crazy point in my life, but it made me realize... sometimes we are naive and hopeful... when we REALLY shouldn't be. You are amazing live. Last time I saw you live was at Bonnaroo in 2006, when you toured as the Dresden Dolls. It was amazing to see how much you have grown not only as an artist but to hear how you have as a person. xoxox

I won tickets through the Patreon giveaway and I am SO GLAD! I was there from 5 pm until after midnight. It was a roller coaster of emotion and vulnerability, not only for you but for me. I rode it with you, It was an incredible and raw experience. I left definitely feeling the need for all the hugs but it was so worth it. Thank you!

I am the contributor of Florencia the Flamingo. I drove for 8 hours from Baton Rouge to see you because I WON a ticket! Thank you for that. I made it in time for the wedding, and it rocked! I was so anxious to get there for the wedding! To see two people in love being married by their idol with a marching band, I was so happy! And hopeful, after all of the politics, to see so much love and compassion in your fans. The kindness of others. I had no place to stay, and two of your fans took me in and gave me a room to stay with PETS! Amanda, your show is so personal and so compassionate and so exactly what we all need right now. Your word and music speak to love and humanity and you are so much muchness. You spoke to my heart, which was breaking over the politics of a way we can all survive. Through love and compassion. I can do that. Thank you, Amanda and Hayley and all of you beautiful survivors of life. Thank you.

Sorry I’m late! Had to leave town right after the show unexpectedly. I live in Atlanta. I was at the signing and the show! The whole experience was wonderful. There was so much love and compassion and motivation to do! It was so inspiring. The show was amazing and very much needed given what’s going on here.

Hey. Also quite late but thank you so much for coming to Atlanta and doing the ticket giveaway. I've been through a really rough patch and couldn't afford tickets. The abortion law really had me down on top of everything else, and I felt completely out of steam. Your show refilled my batteries. I'm ready to keep fighting.
