I hope you get well SOON! Rest those chords, no talking. The bright side: more time to blog to us! :) Sending good vibes your way in hopes that you’ll be well enough to see our smiling faces and dancing bodies in San Francisco.

Yo Kele,

I hope you feel better. We were pumped in DC for the show, but I guess we’ll catch you next time around. And try to take it easy on that island–it’s been known to swallow people whole!

Feel better! I’m with Ben-I was really excited to see you, but you gotta take care of your voice. See you soon!!

All kinds of understanding on my part, Kele. My brother and I were at the very front of the crowd at the last 2 Bloc Party shows you did here in NYC. (Last show, you actually climbed up my shoulder when you decided to crowd surf, heh).

We’ve had tickets for what would’ve been your August show for a couple months and I for one have the patience to wait some more. It’ll be well worth the wait.

I’ve lost my voice singing in my pitiful “band” with my friends, and even when I was younger and in choir. Rest does wonders, and I hope you get plenty of it. Feel better!

Hey Kele, bummed you couldn’t make it but your health is definitely the most important thing. I really hope the rest of the tour goes smashingly (play “Tenderoni” extra loud in Denver, my brother loves that song!)

Hopefully you’ll return to D.C. soon (either under Kele or… *fingers crossed* when Bloc Party reconvenes!)

Much love,

An understanding fan.

I had two tickets for tonight and was ridiculously excited to see you but it is understandable that you can’t make it. I hope you feel better and come back to DC when you get a chance. :)

I only can send you million kisses to wish you to get well soon. You have to be patient now and to take care of yourself. Why don’t you take advantage of beeing back to US to see your friens who lives in? Love’xxxxx

Hope ur feeling heaps better soon!
C u then brother!

Arnaud

I was in Ibiza that day but, unfortunately, I didn’t watch the show (no mean to convince my friends to come to San Antoni). It should have been terrific, so that you lost your voice!
I’ve also heard that you’ll probably be in Paris in november (festival Les Inrockuptibles). This time, I won’t miss you ;-) I hope that you will be cured from here. Cross my fingers 4 you

Nicole

Read your blog backwards, so that seems to be a serious problem! Poor you!
Hope you get better soon! Avoid talking, whispering is even worse! I guess there’s not much else than drinking lots of tea and waiting until the voice comes back.
Don’t stress your vocal chords to soon, let them rest, we all love your voice!

Adrian

Hope, your well rested for the Music Box in 2 weeks :)
