Just wanted to say to everyone how much I enjoy this board...I used to write for a local 'zine back in the early 90s while I was in school, teaching...then got involved on the other side because someone heard me sing, and begged me to be a backup singer in her band, did art work for demo covers for another band...was madly in love with a lead vocalist in one of the band's you guys love to hate. I can relate to many of the parts of Almost Famous...as I have been in the writers shoes... and I have been the girlfriend of the band member who does the cheating...One day I woke up and said, "That is it..." couldn't deal with the emotional rollercoaster and I left it all behind to become a flight attendant! I am very happily married now, but one thing I can't leave behind is the love for the music...and the creative aspect...thanks for all of the fantastic information that you ALL provide about many of my favorite artists....so here is the big question...are you all musicians yourselves??? Forgive the ignorance...I stumbled upon this board accidentally...
