Dear Friends of O'Malley's March,

All good things must come to an end, and I wanted to let you know that this will be my last St. Patrick's season. I really want to thank all the guys in the band -- Pete, Jamie, Jared, Sean, Jimmy, and Ralph -- and each of you for 25 years of playing music and keeping the tradition alive and real. At this point in my life, every ounce of my aging creative energies are going to have to be focused on continuing our City's remarkable progress and being laser focused on getting our State moving in the right direction again. I'd love to keep playing, but a vocation is a "yes" that requires a thousand "no's." Thanks again for your support, and please log on to www.martinomalley.com and sign up for the campaign. Maryland deserves better and is capable of so much more.

God bless,

Martin

I understand but will miss O'Malley's March, I enjoyed their concerts in Catonsville at the Lurman Theater each year. I like the music and have a couple of their cd's. Kinda sad, necessary or no.
:-( I was looking forward to a "rocking" Guv.

2. Yes, I am sure that is it

His fundraiser is Sunday, but I cannot go have the Women's Expo in Catonsville to attend. Hi, back at you.

5. I never realized how big O'Malley was on the local band scene

I think O'Malley is great---as a mayor, a democrat and a musician who can have a good time

He DEFINETLY has my vote

11. hey its cool

i'd rather be able to call him Governor O'Malley than listen to him in a band....

GO MARTIN O'MALLEY!!!

[aintitfunny]

12. Absolutely

I think he will be an awsome governor, can't wait to see Erlich's back as he exits the mansion.

13. talking

He is out speaking everywhere, including in Duncan's back yard yesterday -- not far from the revitalized Silver Spring. He got a great turnout, even local pols, many of whom are expected to come out for Duncan. It sounds good.

14. Very Glad to hear that

I thing he has a great shot at winning the primary and then trouncing Mr. Erlich. I saw him recently at a Balt. County democrats gathering in Annapolis and he was definately the favorite of the majority attending. Now I realize that Balto. County is his backyard, but nonetheless it was good to see. I got my O'Malley for Gov. bumper sticker and I'm not afraid to use it!
