Penny!!! It’s so great to ‘see’ you here! I’ve missed you!! 
Hi, I was KellyA back in the day but decided to switch it up now and be Kelly_A. I was mostly a lurker except for the hourly posts, arguments, and occasional pictures.
It’s great to see everyone’s name again. The times at Athfest and elsewhere were a blast. I look forward to catching up a bit.

I didn’t find out about this until today. I’ll probably be around occasionally. Nice to hear from you again!

Feel the same.
And you’re totally right, we needed this.
These past days I think I talked more about myself and feelings here than I did in years even with the closest people around me.
It’s been like therapy.

The underscore is a fresher look but already dated.

You know I’m gonna want to move the furniture around. Maybe get a throw pillow or two.

I think at the end I was JDavid, that was my username for a long time. At the end I had just moved to New Orleans and was recovering from my divorce.
I’ve missed the music recommendations and the threads about different bands. Great that Ethan resuscitated Murmurs.
I look forward to reading about other peoples music taste and hopefully reconnecting with people.

Loved those Survivor contests, though I was usually egregiously offended when my favourites got knocked out!
Didn’t you also do really nice piano covers of R.E.M. songs?

I’m Michael. I’m pretty sure I was binky1978 last time around. I was definitely binky something. So nice to see so many familiar user names. I’ve missed Murmurs so much. Thanks so much to Ethan for bringing it back. What a tonic, in such unsettling times.

I had a fleeting thought today about starting another R.E.M. Survivor for 2022, since I helmed the first two back then, but I’m 50 now, and…ain’t nobody got time for that. Lol.

Describes me pretty well, except for the “fresher look” part.

Yep I remember the lube sales pitch in the pharmacy aisle.

Me being the way I am, I’m working my way through all the threads really slowly but in no coherent order! I always found Facebook overwhelming and hard to communicate on and it started to make me sad a lot (I’m RELATED to those people? And they’re the ones I knew growing up??), so I just drifted away from it. Happy birthday x 15!!!
Kelly’s back, too, and I’m sure he’ll settle back in. It’s so wonderful to see you and the rest of the gang again!

Like a blast from the past murmurs.com is back! I remember checking it everyday and through the forums arranging a meet with a fellow forumite (to my shame I’ve forgotten his name! 
) for the London Brixton gigs in 2013. Amazing to see the site back online
