Hey everyone...update from Toby...firstly, i cannot believe the efforts that all street teamers have been undertaking....for us to come to a show and the lights go down, and all we see is JK glowbands lighting up the audience...amazing!!
So thankyou to everyone behind that...
The shows have been great for us...we have a continuing growth in fanbase and ######### more married women offering themselves for a night of Australian Downunder..haha
It's great though, cos the JKST is making people aware us as soon as the front doors open.
On the road has been great, challenging sometimes...as some of the boys had a flu-type virus and currently my throat is a little swollen, but luckily not my vocal chords (they're kicking ass!).
We've been partying with T Lee alot, he's great...love him, and also Lukas...we're still great mates!!
I got a new tattoo in New York, i'm sure you guys have seen pics of it. It has a couple meanings...after meeting a lady in Ottawa she made me aware of Breast Cancer Research...the pink band...initially my reasoning for the tattoo weren't based on that knowledge. I wanted to get the band to use as a plaque, and put the initials of the people important to me engraved in the the tatt (my neice, family etc)..so know it has to very important meanings...#### yeah!!
All i can say is life is great....thankyou for everyone supporting us and taking my boys in JK under your wings...we are so grateful to have the best ST in the world....Kelley, you are ####### amazing!!!
Love you guys....2007 is all JUKE KARTEL ####
Love Toby

You are just as amazing of a person as you are a musician. You are an inspiration and I truly adore you. I am so glad to be a part of this street team and you remind me of why I work as hard as I do for JK. God bless that kind heart of yours.

Hey Toby sorry to hear about the guys not feeling well. I hope you guys enjoy the rest of the tour. Stay safe and hurry back to Illinois. I am looking forward to seeing a whole set not just 20 minutes. That is just not long enough. I couldn't think of any better guys to be standing behind.

Toby thanks for stopping by.
Don't worry love not all of the ladies are married who are fans. The meaning behind the tattoo is incredibly touching. Family is the most important thing and to have them engraved on you is very sweet.

Promoting Juke Kartel is in no way shape or form Hard! You guys are so Amazing! You touch fans of all ages and walks of life.... but I'm sure you have already seen this. I'm 42 years old and through watching you on Rockstar and now seeing you rockers LIVE.... I know now that you're Never too old to Rock!!!!
Tell the guys to get well quick and keep kicking ### ! I'm hoping that you make it back around to Illinois again soon!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm Captivated by the fact that you guys are so true to your fans!! Means a lot to us!!
Almost too shy for my picture with you, but I love it! Thanks so much, Hun. I'll do better.
Love Lots,
Twyla xxO

Thanks for the update Toby. It is so great that the boys take the time to come here and share with us what is going on in the road and their gratitude for what we do. I was telling someone about the street team and what we do and he just couldn't understand why we would spend our own money on stuff to give out. This is one reason why. I have to say these boys are some of the most grateful I have seen, and it makes it all worth it.
We love you Toby, take care of yourself!!!

Toby,
Thanks for taking the time to update us. This place rocks doesnt it? It takes a real man to get a breast cancer awareness tattoo, and although I didnt think it possible, it endears me to you even more.
JKWorld domination, just around the corner...
Hugs,
Kellee

Hey, Toby. Hope you and the boys feel better, soon. I know being on tour is a long, tough haul with many challenges. I just wanted to thank you, Tommy and all the JK boys, again, for being such sweethearts to the fans. I've been hearing nothing but wonderful things about your performances and interactions with everyone at the concerts, etc. Hope more amazing things just keep coming your way, guys--you certainly deserve it. Sending hugs, love, wishes for good health and positive vibes everyone's way.

Thanx for the msg Toby! What a great meaning behind your new tattoo, and Yay, you got it in NY!!! I hope you and the boys are all feeling better...if you ever need a private nurse or massage therapist, I am licensed in both! Glad to see your fan base is increasing, as well...it's an honor and priviledge being a Street Teamer for you guys...you all give us so much, it's the least we can do in return! I'm glad you're having a great time kicking a** out there! Remeber, not all of us are married... Take care, Toby! Have a blast, stay safe, and stay healthy!!! xo All of My Love, Catherine

Toby, you are the best! If there is ever a great reason to get a tatt, thats the two best i've ever heard! I know you'll never forget where you came from and who was there for you but to have it where everyone else can see it, is special. Its great to hear you having a blast over there, and i'm sure it will continue on and get better from now on too. Wishing you all get well wishes and see you in Melb soon!!

Thanks for the update Toby! You guys were awesome in Columbus, OH. It was so exciting to meet you, Tommy, Eddie and Todd. Hopefully you guys come to Pittsburgh,PA on your summer tour so I can see JK again and meet Dale. Your new tattoo has many great meanings behind it. You are the sweetest! I hope everyone who's sick gets better soon and stay warm, its been really cold lately. You guys are probably not used to this weather. Take care

Toby, you and the guys were absolutely amazing in Columbus! Thanks for taking the time to write from the road. You guys are so generous to your fans with your time. Hope all of you are over this virus thing soon. Your schedule is pretty grueling. It's lucky you guys are young and so full of energy.

LOL about the married women - I gotta admit I was one of them. After introducing Toby to my wonderful husband I told him that he is my number 2 man any day of the week Oops, haha.
Love the meaning behind the new tattoo - very cool to show support like that. Plus I know we were all curious. I'm getting a new tattoo this weekend which I am stoked about although my reasoning behind it isn't nearly as incredible.

Wow wow wow, you guys make us the best street team because of your dedication to your band and to us. It all started with a little show called Rockstar and now has become a Juke Kartel family. This is the best experience I've had and I'm so proud to be a part of something so wonderful. Thanks guys for being so good to all us and thanks to Kelley, Tina, Balls, and etc who have worked so hard to put this street team together and has worked so hard to keep us close to each other and to the band. I love ALL OF YOU here in the Juke Kartel family!!!!
Love the meaning of the new tatt! Very good cause!

So you guys are to blame for me getting sick. It was probably the hugs and kisses, but they were DAMN SURE WORTH IT!!!!! I have a double whammy of strep throat and bronchitis, but I am really hoping all you boys have is a fast moving virus. Take care of yourselves as much as you can while being on a world wide tour with a grueling schedule.
Thanks so much for all your kind words, but you guys are definitely an easy sale. One taste and people are fans for life!!! I can't wait until the day I see your HOT AUSSIE ASSES on MTV and I can think to myself that I had a little part in it. You guys are gonna be HUGE!!! Keep striving to achieve all your dreams knowing the ST will be behind you all the way with all the LOVE and SUPPORT in the world!!!
Oh, by the way, we are married, NOT DEAD!!!!! The new tatt is the SHIT, for sure!!!! What an amazing soul you are!!! Take care, mate!!!! YA KNOW I LOVE YOU HEAPS!!!! MUAH!!!

Thanks for the message. It is always fun to hear what's going on from y'alls perspective. Hope everyone is in better fettle soon.
Just gotta say that you have wowed me with the tat. Having been touched by breast cancer in my own family, it is awesome to see a kick-ass rocker raising some awareness for such a great cause. Thanks for letting us know...

I'm a little late to the party on this one, but just wanted to say thank you Toby, to you and to all of the guys, for making this the most fun winter I can remember. Thanks for being so welcoming, sweet and cool, for letting us share in all of this, and for the hugs! (And I hope to be able to get to a show in Oz, if the North American ones are this rockin', I can only imagine how it is there.)
Your updates make us smile!
Take care, stay safe, have fun, and much love,
