I was hoping that she might have found this forum by now and said hello. |

I can see how maybe she has her hands tied with other stuff. Not to mention that collectively, I don't feel like this is always a welcoming place to new people. Too many people post here and have a stand off nature when it comes to discussing Mr. Lee, as if people here owned the man or something.
Hopefully she is welcomed Jazmaan, but you and I both know how it can be here especially when someone who either knew the man, or has a connection with him posts here. Former band members not included however.

Overall, we are getting better I feel, but one bad seed is too many in my book. In the end all we are doing is talking about an amazing performer, and an amazing rock and roll band.

There were one or or two times, when I first posted here, that I felt a bit put down by things people said. I can't remember now if it was one of the "regulars" or not, and it's not worth looking back to see. But as John has said, compared to the nastiness that can be found on other sites, it was negligible. Overall, I feel as if I've found a place where I fit into the ... |
