I highly recommend this book. It's one of the best and most enjoyable I've read in quite a while - Ray
Who I'd like to meet: Actually I have met her - even heard her play live a couple of times. She's the most impressive artist I've ever known. I have her new CD, Diversity, and recommend it very highly.
On Saturday 5.12 at 14.00 CET, CATSELF will be interviewed and played on the Finnish national radio station YLE X3M, the Swedish language radio. The interview will be in English, and they will also play her new Christmas Angel's Song! It can be played live online everywhere in the world at http://www.yle.fi/extrem/radio/

Hey Ray how is it going? Yes I have been busy setting up evolution coop a bit for something that is a bit more focused then what I normally am. Just last week put together our 1st E-Course on writing music reviews.
I took a couple of months off from the internet and it has been a constant pace rebranding netvalar+music into evolution coop while deciding what aspects stay with Netvalar.
Thank you for the comment on the bullitin, and showed me I need to reduce the number I have out there. Now I know why Miley Cyrus only keeps 4 - 7 alive at a time. Just 1 more thing for me to think about and work into a new strategy.
Hello Ray - thank you for reading my blog! Yeah, the journey was incredile - I didn't even exaggerate anything, it was really that bad on that day! I've already posted a new blog - I guess it is in a way less interesting as our worst adventures ended the moment we departed from Spain. But that wasn't the end of adventures, no - just the horrible ones!
I hope things are all right with you. I am working on new songs, sending some CDs out to radio programmes and looking around arranging more gigs - I want more! Also a little bit closer than Morocco :))
Dear Ray, thank you so much for all these great things you said about me in the comment on my blog!!
I have just found out that the show with "Alien Vampiress Is Fitting In" is going to be aired already tonight! The song will be played a bit after midnight GMT so quite at the beginning of the program! I'm really happy.
I listened to Annie Bacon's "Folk Opera" today and it was great - I will listen to it again and again, I think!
I wish you a lovely weekend and send a lot of good vibes along. I have had tough times lately too but events like the one today give me my strength back.
Just throwing some colors into your world Ray! :) Thanks for adding me into your circle of friends & supporting both me and my cause!!!! If you have a moment, would you sign my guest book on my site - www.artbygadi.com >^..^<
i'm great! (i'm also hopped up on all kinds of pain meds so ummm that may negate the previous sentence...lol) ;) no seriously, the pain is totally managable.. :) thanks for checking in on me. xoxo
Ahh thank you ;o) Bless David, he is very kind to me and helpfull. He does have good taste, not referring to myself, but all the other artists I know of that he likes are great.
Thank you for the friend request! Nice to meet you! I see you are a friend of a few people I recognise from SAB so I'm guessing you are on there too? I am about to go there next! Glad to be friends and I hope you like my songs ;o)
