"February 21, 2007 -- "BROOKLYN rockers the Violets have great taste. They have what's sure to be a big hit with their new song, "Page Six Junkie" - a tale of one gossip addict's need to get his celebrity scoops and salacious New York news every morning. "Every day I get my fix, I buy The Post and then I open Page Six," it starts. "I don't read the Sun and I don't read the News/And I don't read the Times cause it gives me the blues . . . Mister Richard Johnson I need my fix!/I need my Post and I need Page Six." The band, fronted by Alexander "Mr. Magenta" Nixon , plays tomorrow at Don Hill's." - PAGE SIX, NYPOST (see photo above)

This should probably be taped to your bathroom mirror where one could read it every day. You may not realize it, but it's 100% true.
1. There are at least two people in this world that you would die for.
2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.
3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.
4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
6. You mean the world to someone.
7. You are special and unique.
8. Someone that you don't even kn ow exists loves you.
9. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
10. When you think the world has turned its back on you take another look.
11. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.
So. If you are a loving friend, send this to everyone, including the one that sent it to you. If you get it back, then they really do love you.
And always remember.... when life hands you Lemons, ask for Sugar and call me over!
Good friends are like stars. You don't always see them, But y ou know they are always there.
'Whenever God Closes One Door He Always Opens Another, Even Though Sometimes It's Hell in the Hallway'
I would rather have one rose and a kind word from a friend while I'm here than a whole truckload when I'm gone.
Forward to all your friends. And don't tell me you're too busy for this.. Don't you know the phrase 'stop and smell the flowers'? See how many 'bouquets' you end up with.
Happiness keeps You Sweet, Trials keep You Strong, Sorrows keep You Human, Life keeps You Humble, Success keeps You Glowing, But Only God keeps You Going.

The Violets have another 80s-riffic hit on their hands. "Looking For Andy Warhol" demands backup vocals by Simon Le Bon. I can't wait to see them perform it live. And any of you reading this, if you haven't seen The Violets live, ya gotta. They aren't some crap local band the likes of which your friends drag you to every now and then. They are the real deal. As good as they are, they won't be doing the club thing on the cheap for very long, I'm afraid.
