 Hi there, Just wanted to share you that I was always impressed by your sound. Started to play the guitar as a kid listening to ToyDolls and now graduating as a jazz guitar performer at a university. Still getting motivated to kick the overdrive listening your solos. Thx - Greetings from Hungary
 Hi to Hungary! Thank you so much! Best of luck at uni! I am sure its not easy. Hope to see at a show in your great country soon.

Hi Master!!! Happy new year!! I´m waiting patiently for the new album. By the way, what you think to present us with a video show live present us all the new songs. Like these Foo Fighters video "The Toy Dolls In Studio New Album and Rarities" It would be nice because The Toy Dolls is totally live, no MDs, no playback. Right? Certainly you don´t play all the new stuff in concerts, and a opportunity to play B Side that has never play live. Check the video and tell what you think. A BIG HUGE. Your BIGGEST FAN! Tico/Brazil
Hi there Tico Yeah, that's an interesting idea, I will think on it! And we are looking forward to getting back to Brazil too!

Olga!.. Im from Paraguay, last time you went to play to Buenos Aires, Argentina (september 2010), me and my girlfriend Kimberley went to see you guys.. While you were playing the third song i went to buy a beer and realized my wallet was gone, with all our money, passports, credit cards, everything. We were stuck in the venue, without money or anything to go back to the place we were staying or go back to our country.. so, we missed the rest of the show figuring out what to do, then was a loooong story but we finally got to our country embassy and all that, and the problem was solved eventually.. so last year we tried to catch a show somewere europe when we went, but no, there were no shows.. we will be in london from may 26 to may 30. and then touring some other countries around.. ive seen that youre only playing a few shows in spain.. we want to see you guy again so much, are those the only shows??.. is possible to get an authograph from you for my girlfriend?.. can't wait for the new record!.. thanks and hope to see you soon!!. Fernando.
Fernando Hi I am so sorry to hear about your unfortunate experience in Buenos Aires, bah, that sounds awful. Last year was a quiet year for The Toy Dolls live shows because we were recording the new album. Most shows in 2012 are from October! But apart from the Spanish tour there will be festivals throughout Europe, you should check the tour dates now, there are more gigs coming in! I hope you can make one of them! I shall certainly sign anything for you at the show. Hope to see you at one!

Hi Olga! I am from the Netherlands and The Toy Dolls is one of the most awesome bands that i know, i mean you're the awesome band ever! Will you come to the Netherlands with the tour after the last one!? It would be a show I never will forget!! greetings, Bob van Dijk The Netherlands
Bob Hi Well thank you very much! Our management said it was very likely that Holland will be in the 2012 shows, starting in October, it’s not confirmed though! But likely! Hope you can make one of em!
Olga
Hi Olga! I would like to attend in your concert For example in a hungarian little village, FÓT. I think, the best place is near my house, where is a hill. What do you think of my idea?It can be the best party of your/my life Maybe. What do you think from August before of "Sziget Festival"?
What's yor oppinion? Best regarts Andras
Andras Hi That sounds very nice! Though we won’t be doing Sziget this year as we already done it in 2010. Thank you for the offer though! Hope to see you somewhere in Hungary in 2012!
Cheers,
Olga
Hallo Olga! My sister saw you about 20 years ago in Hamburg, and she warmly remembers. So doing a mix for her, I found out The Toy Dolls still exist! And since a couple of days I`ve been listening to nothing but you. It makes me so happy! Is there any chance you`re comming to Hamburg this year? I love you! Katti.
Hi Katti! 20 years ago, my God, don’t say that! Yeah, we are still here! Yeah, hopefully Hamburg will be in the German shows in 2012! See ya there!
Cheers

Hello anyone, For medical reasons I walk better on clogs than shoes. And I love to be different than other people so, I paint them as I like. Now I want to make some with the picture of the new album. But I think i need to ask your permission to do that. So, is it ok with you if i make a pair Toy Dolls clogs? I can send you a picture when they are finnished. Love Peace and Joy, Ann Lisa.
Ann Lisa Hi, No, you need any permission to paint a pic of the new album on your clogs! And if you do, I give you it! Providing you send a picture when you have finished!
Take Care

Dear Ciaron, I was just chatting on Facebook with Olga's Q & A thingy (Facebook as been very naughty to Olga!) I asked him if there was an address where I could send an album or cd
or something to get his autograph and he said I should email you and perhaps something could be worked out? I've been a fan since 1983 and I have some vinyl I've hoarded :) I'd be more than happy to pay for return postage and I'd use a container that is re-usable for quick mailing. ANYTHING that can be worked out is appreciated beyond my abilities to convey appreciation! Sinseriously, Damon Bennett
Hi Damon, Yeah, I remember you asking, unfortunately, talking with Ciaron, its not possible for anyone to send in items to get signed sadly. If you bring anything to the live shows we will gladly sign them. I hope this helps, a bit?

Hi Olga, my name is Miguel and I'm from Spain. I am a guitar pick collector and would like one of yours. By exercising your Granada in 2006, tommy Goover shot lifted the pick and that was by my side (bad luck). In the tour of Spain in 2012 I'll see you in Madrid and Granada. a warm greeting and thanks for everything Pardon my English but it is the translator of google
Miguel Hi, I don't actually use a pick, it's a strange thing I invented, stuck to my finger! Great that you can get to Madrid and Granada! See ya there!
Cheers
Olga
Hi Olga, My name is Danny. I am 10 years old and from Holland. Where can i buy Toy Dolls T shirts? ( especially the Idle Gossip shirt) and some Toy Dolls posters to put on the bedroom wall We've been looking all over the internet, but i can't find any.. Hopefuly you will play in Ulft. There's a new venue called DRU fabriek. It's the perfect place for a Toy Dolls show!!
Greetings from Danny
Hi Danny, You can buy T shirts and badges on this website, www.thetoydolls.com. Just click on the little t shirt picture on the front page. Theres no posters at the moment, maybe in the future though. We will be back in Holland, see ya there!
Take Care,
Olga
Hey Olga Hope you are well and things are going good, would like to as you this interesing question. Is all your songs based on true stories in sunderland as the ashbrooke laundret and so on. i was reserching on the net and i understand u recorded one album in a house in trinity heights, is this true and is it yours? from tez!
Hi Tez Yeah, things are going fine, thank you! Most of the songs are based on true stories or soap operas! We have recorded a few albums in Trinity heights! And yes its in a house! Though its not mine unfortunately!
Cheers

Hi Olga, I have a question for you: you guys are playing in Prague on the 18th May. We really want to go there and maybe plan a little city trip there. The problem is: we are from Belgium, and the website where to order tickets from, is in a language we absolutely don't understand. Do you guys sell tickets for this show yourselves too, so we don't make any mistakes, or do you maybe have another solution? Thanks and really looking forward to the show! Bert & Inge
Hi Bert & Inge, We don’t actually sell the tickets for the festival, I tried to check for you but got no reply. I think the best idea is to go the festival website, and cut and paste different parts into GOOGLE ONLINE TRANSLATOR, from CZ to Belgian, eventually you will find where to buy the tickets!
The site is: http://www.barvyleta.cz/dzban/2012/
Good luck!
Olga
Hey olga ..where can i get some official t-shirts .. al your gigs seem to be played in spain .. any chance of you selling someon the site ..thanks
Yo! T shirts are on sale on this site! www.thetoydolls.com Just click the little pic of the tshirt on the left!
Cheers
