Hello, I'm sending this Nelly Elephant's cover. We are a Punk Rock group from Vilanova i la Geltrú (Barcelona; Spain) and we would like much that you were publishing together with other covers. LONG LIFE TO TOLL DOLLS, thank you. 

Thank you! I will check it out! Good luck with the band! Hope to see you in Spain soon!
Olga

Hey Olga, I’m 15 and I live in England, I am learning to play the bass guitar and I’m going to try to learn some of The Toy Dolls songs, with the help of my dad who plays guitar and bass. I love you guys and think your music is ace. I wanted to ask you which artists did you like when you where growing up and who made you want to be a musician. Thanks, Take care, Hannah x

Hannah Hi
Well, me in particular, I was influenced by Suzi Quatro, Slade and Mud in the early days, then all the early Punk bands.
Yeah, most of the stuff from the 1970s I guess! God I sound old!
Being bullied at school was the main reason for wanting to be a musician however!
Good luck with the playing.

Hey Olga ! 
So I've been waiting soooo long for the new album hope you'll finish it soon can't wait to hear it then :) sciattica sucks or however the name goes was quite catchy :D  Great work you do I love it but besides I wanted to ask you which tele I could buy it should be similar to yours but should have a price from 700 - 1000 Euros would be glad if you could recommend me any. Hopefully your's Alex and when you start touring please come back to Austria :)

Yo Alex
Thank you, I hope its gonna be worth the wait, ha!
I would go for an older Tele, and a one made in USA if you can find one cheap enough!
Maybe a Vintage 52 Model.
Yeah, it would be nice to get back to Austria!
Cheers
Olga

Hi Olga One big fan from Alicante (Spain). Im really excited waiting your new album. Do you think come to Spain again? I have two little doughters , but if you are going to play near, i'll go. i had never saw your show, and it's the only concert i want to go. Best Regards

Hi

Hi Olga, You do the best version of Ghost Riders I've ever heard but I have scoured every site on the entire internet and cannot find anywhere where I can buy a download the track. Any help? Many thanks Philip

Philip Hi
Thanks for that, though I was never really keen on our version!
It was never recorded actually, only on a video, WERE MAD, live in Blackpool.
Many moons ago!
Hope that helps a bit!

Hi Olga. Just a couple of quick things. I didnt realise that on your web site that you have the guitar lessons, blimey what a breath of fresh air to actually have the guitar genius letting us know how to play the songs. Its incredible and i dont know anyone who would take time to show the fans the guitar licks , as all the tab that i search for isnt correct (eg The glenda and the test tube baby says E major, and i have now learned from your video its E minor) so i can stop tearing my hair out now i know i wasnt going mad. You know the lead break in that song, what chords do i play over that section please? Thats my only question and i would just like to say again that there aint many people like you who take time to show the fans how you work your magic and from the very first time i saw you on "the tube" on channel 4, i have always been a fan, and lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllong may your musical magicery continue.
Thanks Ian

Hi Ian
Thanks for that, yeah, the guitar lesson take a bit of making, but we think it's a nice addition to the website too!
The chords that go with the Glenda lead break are:
Ab, Db, Eb, REPEAT.
Any help!?

Hey Olga... Just wondering in what you think of the "honour olga" and "toy dolls for rebellion" pages on facebook at the moment... Bill

Hi Bill
I haven’t actually seen these pages! There’s no official Toy Dolls Facebook page as yet, there will be soon though!
I will try to check out those pages ya mentioned however!
Cheers
Olga
