Dear Kate and Dave;
Once again, I left that crazy weekend feeling completely energized. The Magikal Mystery bus ride back
to the train station was full of smiles, laughter, and quiet hopeful anticipation for Satsang III.
I love the way these weekends are evolving. It is quite clear that the spiritual discussions and exercises during the day are equally important to Dave as the energy fused night time Rock'n'Roll shows he puts on with his band. He has become much more relaxed and comfortable in his teacher/guru like position since the first Satsang, quick to field any weird question thrown at him, perfectly willing to travel down any path if that's what the overwhelming majority wants to hear about.
Once again, Dave Davies has pioneered a unique and incredible way for fans, misfits, and lost souls to know him on such a personal level as he draws us all in and shows us the true light. A weekend at Dave's makes it seem easy to save the entire world from imminent destruction. That's just how powerful he is in his own humble way. Oh, and the food was great too. And, of course, the drinks were continuously flowing. I was able to take 3 Beasts home to America, unscathed, to give as gifts (one of course to me). I'm saving it for a special occasion like when Dave's new album hits the streets.
Thank you both again for the wonderful weekend in such a magical place.
Love;
Patsy

I love the pictures!
Dave is such a sweetheart. I got some names at Martin Guitar and will be sending my letter to them shortly. I hope something good comes out of that.
Dave seemed to really be more relaxed and enjoying himself more at this latest Satsang.
I just love the way they are starting to evolve. I've been telling Joe about the great time we all had (who got his postcard, by the way, and loved it) and he is just chomping at the bit to attend the next one. I feel the same way. Come on Dave, please, lets have a seance at Satsang III. I just looked at the set list and noticed that "Lost in Your Arms" was on it and you didn't play it. What a mind blower that would have been. Well, maybe next time along with "True Story" and "Wild Man".
I'll forward you the letter to Martin Guitars when I get it finished. Hope your cat is enjoying her catnip.

Dear Dave and Kate,
Thank you so much for an unforgettable extraordinary weekend!
Thank you Kate for your hospitality and thank you Dave
for sharing your inner thoughts and emotions , I was deeply impressed!
And at the concerts in the afternoon it was so good to see Dave again
in top form - rocking the house.
The version of "Milk Cow Blues" was one of the best I've ever heard and I like the new Song ( I think the Title was
title was "Remember the Future".)
It was an honour for me to stay at Dave's House with so many nice People.
Best wishes,
HaraldThanks so much for the spectacular weekend at your house - I am still absorbing the experience and will cherish it forever. I wish we had jammed a bit but maybe next time. I'd love to play ' I'm not like everybody else ' and 'Strangers' with you and of course, 'Milk Cow Blues'. OR maybe just jam in 'A' or 'F#'! That's always great for communication.
Anyway it was a real pleasure to meet you and spend a little time with you and I feel that my spirituality has been elevated. I tried to 'Friend' you on Facebook but it says your limit has been reached! It would be nice if you can squeeze me in as a friend - I won't be intrusive...
Love you...

Kate and Dave,
I want to thank you both for hosting a fabulous retreat. It was truly the perfect setting for discussions of open thought, spiritual healing, prayer, and a great musical performance!! I think your new song sounded great!!! I also want to thank the other teachers and musicians.The band sounded great together, everyone was very in sync and harmonious. It was a real collaborative effort by everyone that really added to the experience...
The garden was beautiful and the surrounding area was so serene and tranquil. I kinda felt like I had walked through the wardrobe of a C. S. Lewis novel and landed in Narnia:) I met so many wonderful people and learned so much from the experience. Your kindness, wisdom, and clarity of thoughts were very inspiring.
Before going on the retreat, I felt there was something missing spiritually, I was lacking the wonderment & joy that I used to feel. And was feeling stressed out & tired from different pressures in my life. I knew there were changes I could make to improve that, although I either lacked the motivation or didn't know what steps to take. Your teachings of different philosophies like Kundalini & meditative practices has really awakened a lasting positive energy within that was lacking prior to the trip. Before heading back to Texas I spent a few days in London and went one day to the British Museum. Thought you might enjoy seeing the photo attached of the Shiva and Ganesha figure located in the Asia wing of the British Museum. The Shiva figure was featured as one of the best highlights in the brochure guide:) Thank you both for a very memorable experience.
Warmest Regards,
Scarlett

Hi Dave and Kate
Thanks for emailing the photos today.
We want to thank you both very much for a wonderful once in a lifetime weekend. We had such a great time and really appreciate all the hard work and effort that must have gone into it all. Dave was an excellent host who was attentive to everyone in turn and his evening concerts were brilliant too. I am still pinching myself in case it was all a dream .
Our very best wishes to you both
Love Lesley and Shauna xx
PS Thanks for the Cinzano too . X

A week has already past since the Weekend. I would like to thank you again for your kind hospitality to allow us on your premises, for the inspiring talks and the opportunity to meet interesting people, the tasty lunches and the wonderful music.As the Exmoor countryside was new to me and showed to be very beautiful,

The positive energy that Dave is able to transmit through his presence, his words, and his numerous hugs is the "true phenomenon" that I think we all felt this weekend.
Anyway, I have already started designing my meditation room and outside garden. I'm also finally setting up my 55 gallon fish tank. I have not been able to wipe the smile off my face since I got back.
New energy to confront the evil people that I meet on my path. Right after I go to the Dollar Store and buy some new, totally rad pink reading glasses. They will be absolutely gear. Thanks again guys and all the best to you.
Love,
Patsy
Dave and Kate,
We are back in Phoenix safely. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The retreat was one of the most memorable weekends of our lives. We are deeply touched by your generosity and kindness. Everything about the weekend was perfect. Your warmth, welcoming and anticipation of our every need was exquisite.
After the stroke, we were both very concerned and prayed that David would make a good recovery. It was clear in seeing the joy in your eyes Dave as you played guitar and sang some of your favorite songs, that you are back, and your voice was strong and clear. Your humor and humility is also strongly revealed. We are ecstatic!
Thank you both for everything! Thank you for the wonderful surprise birthday cake and song and card. You made my 60th birthday a night I will remember forever! Thank you.
With love and deep respect,
-Ken and Anita
