Hey Eric, this is Jason I used to come see you guys all the time when you were with the laughing gnomes!!! Don't know if you remember Joe Kolnick from Hinsdale or not(The Chicken Shack) but anyway you played a show in a town called Bristol,IN and the only people that showed up were the people I had brought to see you, maybe you remember now!!! Anyway every summer I have parties out at my horse ranch and like to have someone come out and play. I would love for you to play one of these parties for me!! Please get back to me when you can and let me know if you are interested at all. Alot people from the Ill. burbs come out for the parties as well as new fans waiting to hear you in South Bend. Hope you are interested!!

Eric,
Hello old friend! Wow it's been some time (years) since I've seen or heard you. I moved away, then moved back again, but I don't get out much these days. I'll have to stop being a hermit and seek out one of your shows. I always loved to watch you jam!!
Glad to know you are still at it Eric!!

Eric,
On behalf of the Thursday night Finnegan's crowd...
We thought you'd never leave.
It's a relief to know that we no longer have to endure sub-par guitar playing,
your lack of enthusiasm and musical knowledge, poor and limited taste in musical genres, and general disregard for fellow musicians as well as everyone's enjoyment and friendship.
Thanks for nothing!! (Wink, wink)
Good luck, we'll all miss you.
See you at the coffee shops and fairs!
Fan and friend

I can't thank you enough for adding some more happiness to my life through your talents as both musical artist and technician. "Doin' Alright" is a great example of what happens when one puts their heart and soul into their music. The sound of a well played guitar has always grabbed my soul. Combine that with well written lyrics and your music has become part of the music I use to get me through to where I need to be. You've reminded me again that, with music, life is oh so good! Congratulations, my friend.

Hey I'm from Washington and I came across your CD, lots of potential. Loving how you express yourself. Almost for every fan base, except the rap stars (aka my son). He's into all the Gangster beats and that sort of thing. Keep in up can't wait for your next song.

Eric,
Thanks for letting me review your CD. It is quite good. Sorry it took so long, but that's just me! BTW, Let me know how much the CD is!
AndyM
Review follows:
Doin' Alright by Eric Lambert. What a great album. My 1st time listening was as background music while I was working around the house. I was thinking, this requires more attention… it is quite good.. Certainly, the whole album is great, 11 of 12 tracks written by Eric, mostly instrumentals (10 of 12). Green (trk 1) is a rollicking instrumental. Keeps you moving without the caffeine feeling afterwards. Doin Alright (trk 2) is an easy feel good vocal that says despite the problems we encounter, “Hey, things are all right.” Scott’s Rag (Trk 3) is a nice bluegrassy track. More Pretty In E (trk 6) is an easy bluesy track that makes you feel good. Cumberland Blues (trk 11) is a nice vocal with great instrumental breaks and backup. Pretty (trk 12) is quite mello and finishes off the album in an easy feel good fashion of the whole album. Great Job Eric. I look forward to you next one!

Eric, Had a great party last week and the ipod shuffled you in. Everyone loved it and it took me back to our wedding you played in Valpo June 2000. I've got your tunes in my head again and I'm heading to see you soon. Can't wait, YOU ROCK!!!
Hey Eric!

Im from the north west, and listening to your music makes me realize that there is more civilazation out there than just my country. For the first time I thought of my wife's needs first and mine second. I want to say thatyour music changed my life, it made me realize that there are more important things then just working and getting paid, for the first time I am looking forward to spending time with my wife and children on the weekend.
Thank you a bunch and Im going to be waiting for your next CD.
Your fan for life

Amazing, enchanting music. Doin' Alright is a masterpiece, Eric Lambert. Ten of twelve pieces are instrumental -- and I loved it! And that's coming from a wordsmith.

Hi Eric ~
Stopped by Bone Dry to say thanks for my Doin' Alright CD. The first time we heard that song was at our wedding. Chris sing's that song to me and it make's me cry. I feel like you wrote that song just for us! As always, I love the music... Many, many THANKS

I currently live in Waco, TX and retired from the Navy in 1996. My mom came down and said that she had seen adds in the Indiana papers about you playing at different venues in the area. I figured I would try and look you up on the internet. I had heaerd years ago that you ahd played with a band called Cracker, but that was may shots of bourbon ago. I may be pecking this message with both fingers here to the wrong fella. But from the scant bio, I think your the same Eric Lambert from the neighborhood and Clay school. You turned me on to Strawberry alarm clock back in the day and I thought about back then when I heard Incense and Peppermint on the radio. If this ain't the same dude then take it easy. I enjoyed the wave file here on your site and will be looking your music up on the web!! My son was down in Austin for a few years and we would always check out the new artists down on 6th street, he has the same love for music that I have always had since I was a kid buying albums from Joe discount. Later

Thought I would look you up and say hello. Thanks aain for all the help you gave me on banging on that old six string. Plan to come and see you soon, just don't know exactly when but soon. I,ll keep in touch. I still love playing that slide. Buzz you later when I get some more time. Thaks again for all your help.

Hi Eric - the new website is awesome! Just checking in on you - looks like you've got a lot of stuff going. Yay! I gave a guitarist/songwriter your name - Phil Golyshko - he's moving to IN and I told him you're fabulous and you may have some where-to-perform-in-the-area tips.
Hope you and yours are doing well and that you're enjoying the spring!

Heard you play at Chris and Raylene's wedding in Crown Point. I was the "talk a mile a minute" woman from NC! I spent last week in Ashe County. Purchased a whole bunch of bluegrass music while I was there. I noticed you have a message from Tony Huizenga on your guestbook. That's my little brother...I'll see ya at Bone Dry!

I concur with Tina. Very nice performance at Taltree last week. My editor agreed with the suggestion to have my article printed in all three June 22 editions of the Chronicle...Portage, Valpo & Hobart. Hopefully that will give you some more exposure and get the word (and tunes) out for more area residents to enjoy your brand of entertainment. Keep up the great work, guys!

Hello Guys,
Just a quick note to say thank you for your performance at the Strawberry Madness event in Hobart this past weekend. I was a writer for the Hobart Chronicle paper that spoke with you briefly. I have enjoyed the music on the CD you kindly gave to me.
I am an independent writer for the Chronicle and, at times, get articles printed that I create as opposed to being assigned a story.
I did make mention of you in the article coming out this Wednesday regarding the Madness event. However, I find your music and personalities worthy of a more detailed article.
I have checked your up-coming schedule and hope to meet up with you folks again at one of them.
Thank you again and I will be in touch.
Respectfully,
Dennis R. Duncan, Jr.

The raw and earthy authenticity of the Tar Heels is what really stands out....a pure and genuine soundtrack of the long ago south. This is the stuff that old world Appalachian dreams were probably made of!

"The best show in town!" If you haven't had the opportunity to see Eric Lambert and Bill Wilkie in "The Tar Heels" you are missing out on an incredible musical experience. Eric is a guitar playing guru with flat-picking, bluegrass and old time flair. Bill adds fiddle and sweet harmonies to original and traditional tunes. Together they make their music performance more than just another concert...it is an unforgettable experience.
