Re: Vanessa-Mae's answers to our questions for her 31st bday

Good questions. Too bad she was so vague on her answers about any upcoming projects. Thats what we really want to know!

Anna Marie Calhoun

Anybody familiar with Anna Marie Simpson-Calhoun? I saw her the other day playing violin at the Yanni concert. She was awesome. She even did a song that is one of VM's favorites to perform. Apparently she has played with lot of people including Steve Vai and Jethro Tull. It also doesn't hurt that sh...

Vanessa must be really popular with scientists. First we had botanists naming flowers after her, and now astronomers.

Sounds good. If this is true, it won't be too long before I'm trying to find a copy on Ebay at a decent price. I'm sure she won't be releasing it in North America.

I still don't understand the link between VM and this botany club that named the flower. Why would they name it after her?

I'm getting a new computer

I'm sure most of you don't care, but I'm finally getting a new computer. They just released the new Apple Imacs the other day, so I immediately placed my order for the one I've been waiting on. It will be so nice being able to use my own computer again. Plus, I won't have to worry about viruses. It ...

Thats funny. I didn't even realize that you and Rijko are the same person. Don't worry about it though. I will get a copy in time. Besides, if anyone should have a copy, it should be you.

Nice writeup. Unfortunately this is one of the only VM recordings I don't own. Last time I bid on it on Ebay, Rijko beat me out.

Wow. Thanks Xanthippe.

Its unbelieveable to me that there are so many of his instruments still around, not to mention documented. Its extraordinary that his instruments have made it into the hands of such a great number of accomplished musicians.

Very cool write up Xanthippe. I've always had a fascination with stringed instruments and I think the instruments in a musicians arsenal tell a lot about them as individuals. VM has certainly acquired some cool violins over the years.

I should have stated that differently. As a musician, she's going to get out of it what she puts into it. Its not different than any of us at our jobs. If we work hard, put in the hours, and take on extra responsibilities, hopefully we would be rewarded with promotions, pay raises, etc. However, if ...

So to sum it up, I think you will see fans be more vocal about their support of Vanessa-Mae when she becomes more vocal of her interest in us. Benji, you hit the nail on the head with that one. And this goes back to what I've said before. A musical artist must work as hard promoting themselves as t...
