It seems we have a Fraggle on our hands. Sorry to those who are tired of hearing about it. But here's a little story. Several years ago I moved to London to work as a music photographer - I use that term very loosely. I did a lot of work, went on a lot of tours, etc... My one dream was to have a photo in an album cover. It seemed that would never happen. I had done video stills and single work, but never an album. Then the Belle's used a photo of Belle that I had taken on the gatefold. Wow. It was a dream come true. So much so that I then retired from doing photographic work. My work is good, but I felt I had accomplished the goal I had set for myself. I thought it was a good time to stop. I was always worried about not having accomplished anything. That I would just move back to America, get married and wonder at the age of 35 what I had done with my life. I wanted something more from my life than to just be some polyester bride. I have that. Perhaps I lack ambition or I set my sights too low, but I am totally happy with myself and my career. That gatefold is framed on my wall and is a reminder to myself that dreams come true, because mine did. Soppy and sad. Perhaps. But that is how I feel. Say what you like about Jeepster, about the Belle's, but don't expect me to sit idly by and listen. With that, I throw my hat in the ring and wave my white flag. Please no more emails to me about the price of this and the price of that. I don't care that much. I only care that there are a lot of people on this list who feel the way I do about Jeepster and the Belle's. I don't feel like I owe them anything, or whatever, I just don't see the sense in planning on Jeepster failing us and whatnot. I only want to go to pic nics and meet-ups where people have similar interests to me and have fun. That's what the Sinister list is about.
