I just took back the long way home from a great show in Aurich tonight. So thank you Roger and band for the fantastic evening. It really touches me in the way you reach all the audience and make us singing and dancing and laughing. May god bless you that you'll have plenty of time and passion to carry on and give us your music to warm up our hearts.  ~ All the best, Marten


It was great! Thank you very much, Roger! :D ~ Rene Eiben
 

Thank you so much for your great concert in Aurich! The records Crime Of The Century and Breakfast In America were in my dad's record collection when I was a kid. I started listening at age 10...now 29 years later I finally got to see you live in concert with my dad and my wife (also a longtime fan) right beside me. It was magical. Your integrity, warm personality and of course the gift of your songwriting were greatly felt...Blessings. ~ Job Verweijen

Dear Rodger. We just returned home and my wife and I cannot stop talking about this intense flashback. Thanks for giving us a large portion of our life, dreams and hopes back. There is a philosophy in your songs,that was too long hidden. Funny enough, as being a musician in my youth, I remembered every single note. Magic. Thanks to you and your perfect band, we felt back "home" immediately. We will not forget again. I swear!  ~ Mike Herrling

I would Love to Listen to this Song again tomorrow in Aachen but Most of all I would like to hear "Crisis? What Crisis?" another Time- it was so lovely lädt Year in Sögel! I am so happy to see you with an Orchestra tomorrow, the First Time for me to see you with an Orchestra! See You in Aachen, Lovely, ~ Jenny
