Oh yeah, I've got a bunch of his songs loaded on my ipod. I also love "If you really loved me"...

He is amazing - I just discovered him 2 weeks ago after another recommended him. I am definitely going to see him when he comes to my part of the world!

Check out his story video. Very well made.

Tim is great - very smart and thoughtful and he is very passionate about it too.

I spent a marathon session watching everything available on Youtube, etc. a couple of months ago when I discovered him. What I really like is that he is actually thoughtful and sensitive with respect to people who are thoughtful, sensitive and respectful - regardless of their beliefs. It's just that he's not going to keep his mouth shut about his position - and he won't sit still while a jackass spouts bullshit as if they are the fountain of great wisdom or something.

Look for interviews with him as well as performances by him. Fascinating. He might be an a-hole in real life - I can't be certain. But, beyond agreeing with his point of view almost 100% - I really think I would love to hang out with the guy on a regular basis. I usually don't actually think that about public figures I admire.

Yeah - he certainly comes off as a quite a good dude. I just wanted to point out that I don't know him and so, can't really say. Public personae can be misleading. For example, apparently Chef Ramsay of Hell's Kitchen is actually pretty easy going in real life.

If I could yell profanely at the idiots who I encounter in my life I would be easy going as well.
