Somehow watching his progression through the show he made me remember I used to have a life, I used to listen to all different kinds of music, I used to have more fun, I used to want more... I used to... I used to ... I used to. I kinda forgot who I used to be, and I suddenly realized I missed her.
I read this post (above). I dont remember who wrote it. I'm real bad at this message board thing, sorry. Anyway, I feel the same as she does. She couldnt have said it better. I've gotten so lost in the routine of everyday life....... I forgot what it was like to listen to a song that moved me to sing it at the top of my lungs and not give a da** who sees me or what they may think. That crazy woman inside of me escaped at the Aragon concert and she refuses to get locked away again. Thanks to Marty and the Lovehammers for setting that woman free. You have changed my life. Love you guys, Pam

I'm not one to write, but I've been so blown away by this entire experience. I've been to both concerts and they so rocked and were so alive. I've had the privledge to talk to the band including Marty. I just can't say enough of how purely nice they are. They are so down to earth and appreciative of what has been happening since RS.
Besides Marty's performances on RS, he blew me away with his personality. He is such an honest, open person. How he handled every situation on the show was just so honest and raw, he totally is not afraid to be himself and if people don't like it that's ok (he would say). He's just so logical, but yet still not afraid to show his emotions. There's so many things that he did on the show that just proved what a wonderful person he is. He's the one that will tell it like it is - always, whether he was happy like a little kid or hurt like a puppy, he was always honest and not afraid to share that. That goes for the entire band. Now I know why they've stuck together for so long and why they were ok that Marty went on the RS show.
My wish is that you all can experience them in concert and meet them in person. You will be so blown away. I was so blown away by RS and didn't think that could be topped, but being there live was even better.
I wish them the best and what's meant to be will happen for them. What they need, they will get. I just help them along by spreading the word (geez, I'm sounding like I'm a bible preaching something or other - sorry).
I'm just so excited for them and am riding the wave as one of their fans (crazed as my family and friends would say).

WOW! As I sit here in tears after reading these beautiful words, I just had to share the love. My life is forever changed for the better because of Marty. He awoke me from a dream and I didn't even know that I was asleep. I am so happy to have found kindred spirits on the board even though I am still new here. May we all find the courage to meet our destinies with arms wide open and spread the love as far as we can!

I spent my teens in the 70's. Bob Segar, The Who, Eagles, Stones, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Tom Petty...etc and so on.... I was a Rock Chick. Head banger in the 80's. When the grunge scene happened I was into that also. Then nothing. I found I couldn't relate to the music coming out in the mid 90's thru the aught years. I cant' stand rap and I tried to appreciate where country music was headed but still felt very empty inside. And classic rock was getting old. I wanted something new. Then this reality show came on TV last summer and though I figured it might be like American Idol which,(sorry) I can't stand, I still had hope that rock-n-roll, my way, could still be achieved. After seeing Marty the first week, I felt instantly that this fellow had something. As the weeks went on I voted for him as much as I could. He blew me away every single week, I realized I didn't want him to be with INXS but wanted him to keep in the top 3 cuz he was the BEST Rocker I had seen in years and I DID NOT want him sent home. I was so overjoyed when I found out about the Lovehammers and downloaded MOMM from MSN. I was so hooked. This band gets me back to my rocker chick days. Head banging and dancing and screaming (wish I could sing) at the top of my lungs. Cruising around town with the stereo blasting. My husband was stationed in Iraq all last year and I know that The Lovehammers got me through till he was able to come home. Once he got home in November, the first music he heard in the car was MOMM and L'Strange. He knew something was up especially when he saw I had a pic of Marty on my desktop. He thought it was just a crush I had on Marty. I tried to explain that it was so much more than that but wasn't quite able to successfully explain it ......BUT that night at the Seattle Concert, he finally understood. With much happiness I am proud to say that now is an official Hammerhead. I am just so happy to feel young again and to give a damn again. And to just be able to rock out again. Thanks Lovehammers!!

I don't know if I've posted mine yet, but here goes.
I'm a young one, one of the youngest here, and I grew up on the old guys-Aerosmith, Petty, Beatles, all the best. My brother is six years ahead of me, so while I was too young for the grunge scene, by brother is at the tail end of that-I listened to Nirvana while trying to listen to what he and his best friend were saying under the blasting stereo.
When high school hit, I found the local punk rock scene through a friend of mine. I was hooked-live music bumping through my entire body, good or bad. I considered it to be a good weekend when I came home with my ears ringing and smelling like the sweat of fifty other pissed off teenagers. Gross, right? But it was heaven to me.
I stopped going after my junior year, and when I found Marty through RS, it made me remember the moshing, and all the wild nights I spent downtown, cleaning up my friends after broken noses and the like. It was reinforced when I met the guys in Seattle, and they reminded me of those guys I partied with then.

Well for me, as I was watching Rockstar, I just wondered if there happened to be anymore info on Marty on the internet, which i never, EVER used except to work. He captured me from the moment I saw him. The way he sings, looks, his humble personality and shyness, and how powerful he gets when he is on stage. He hooked me. So MartyCasey.org was the first one I clicked on, and from them on have been a member. At first I "lurked", wasn't sure about how to go about posting and all that stuff, but I am starting to catch on. I love being able to come here. I have two children and thats about it, lol. Thank you all for being kind, and Im so happy to have this wonderful fan base to come to!!!

Marty got my attention right away. His chiseled face, beautiful eyes, and perfect smile were hard to miss. I, too, am a married lady (to a deployed U.S. soldier in fact) who just sees and appreciates something in this guy musically. I also love the fact that he's pretty brainy. Glad to have a place to chat about him!

This fascination with Marty really kind of crept up on me. I liked him a lot the first time I saw him, and liked him even more the next. But somewhere along the way I actually fell in love with him . . . not the will you please come and marry me kind of love. . . but in love with who Marty was as a person and as an artist . . . with what he stood for and what he gave, and with the insane heights he reached in his performances. I loved the way he managed to get inside my soul, to all the secret places I had caged up long ago - probably because I had other things to do. Around the time I started to fall in love with him, the cage doors had already started rattling and by the time Rockstar was over, whatever had been in that cage was in full, headlong flight. I had a burning drive to do . . . something. I suddenly found energy to go after those things again that I had always been driven to do. I wanted to keep the fires burning so I went looking for The Lovehammers, found mc.org, and against my better judgement got totally and completely hooked. It's like a really good book that I just can't put down. I went looking for Marty, and in the process found all of you. What a fabulous group of people he has reached - every one of you have managed to impress me in some way or another. You are a big part of why I'm here, and the other reason is that, for what he has given me, I would probably follow this man anywhere. We've seen the blossoming of a star . . . it's going to be a wild trip and I really want to be a part of it . . . so I'm here to ride the wave. And also to say . . . Thanks Marty, for having the courage and dedication to go after your dreams . . . You said somewhere that you wanted to make this world a happier place . . . well you already have franny2 and all the rest of you - you've said it so well!! Here are a couple of others that I'd like to quote because they said what I've been thinking/feeling for awhile now:
mrsbud: Wow, f**king Wow!! franny2 you have put into words what so many of us have probably been feeling. Marty and the guys have made me excited about music again. I'm nearly 50 but I now know that there is truth to the saying, "you're never too old to rock and roll." The awesome "family" we feel a part of is what makes this so special.
I too am approaching 50 and asking why I have this "teenage crush" on a rock star - my idea of "hard rock" in my youth was nothing stronger than Three Dog Night! But I have found myself exploring "real" rock bands - old and new - and really enjoying how that music makes me feel - and the Lovehammers music simply has me enthralled!! I am lovin' every single song on MOMM and the new CD and can't wait until I can afford to buy more!!
polarfan: Maybe we're trained to think once we hit a certain age that kind of stuff isn't important. An "adult" has many more things to occupy their time.
I was trying to explain to my mother my latest obsession (she's only 19 years older than me and often we have similar taste in music) - mind you, she didn't see Rock Star (she & dad are in bed by 7:30 pm to start a new day by 4:30 am) - but I was telling her the story of Jodie's following the tour bus for 155 miles and what fun it was to read the play-by-play as she talked to those who were sharing with us here and how I hadn't laughed so hard in a long time! Well, her response was pretty negative - "don't people have better things to do with their time" - referring not just to Jodie's escapade, but my reading about it on a message board - and I for once didn't let her negativity bring me down - I came back with "It's fun - it's exciting - these guys are really something special and the people on the boards are a great community!!" Her response - "Well, I guess I'm just too old." (Only because she thinks she is - SIGH!!) Anyway, the point is - "Marty Love" has given me the courage to stand up to mom and not let her take away my happy feelings!! (btw, while waiting for Jodie to post her story, thanks to penny74 for posting those sexylicious pics of Marty!! The close-up of him at the mic with that intense look - well, I just had to print it and it's now on the wall behind my computer monitor at eye level so that when I look up from my monitor I look right into MC's eyes! Wow! Wow! Wow!)
gingerpyle: Directly addressing the individual is what Marty does best.... now who here thinks Marty is singing only to THEM while the rest of the world melts away? (Raise your hand.) Yeah, I thought so.
(Hand Definitely Raised!!) since I'd already written in my first post - From my Lincoln City January 20 review - "I was in the second section, way off to the right side - but still he made me feel like he was singing right to me!! And when he did direct those intense eyes of his my way - wow!!" I have been lurking here at martycasey.org for quite awhile - enjoying reading all the great things - and admiring Cindy and Amy for all of their amazing hard work!! - and seeing how you all are forming these wonderful connections with each other - but not really feeling like I had anything to add - until the posts about noone reviewing the Lincoln City show yet - well I just had to jump in - and I've been posting here and there ever since!! And, checking back on the boards whenever I get the chance to see "what's new" - who's added to the posts I've responded to - what new poll or review or whatever there is to read (and special thanks to radioclash for giving us all the chance to listen to that terrific interview on the Mark and Brian show - and the Ring of Fire download - Love it!!!) Anyway - when I saw this thread - I just had to give a Big Shout Out to all of you - you've shown me by these posts that I'm in a very good space and definitely belong - I would have never guessed pre-"Marty Love" that I would be going regularly to Karaoke nites at the local bar and singing my heart out (don't have a great voice but people are sayin' they like what they hear!) or cast in a play where I actually get to SING old tunes from the 30's, 40's or before! (mom will be amazed - she always told me I was tone deaf - maybe I've ripened with age!! ) Thanks so much franny2 for starting this discussion - CJ Depoe Bay Oregon (about 12 miles south of Lincoln City)
