My first (and so far only) live Happy experience was when I traveled to EctoFest 2000. It's one thing to hear that voice coming out of a recording, but to hear it coming out of her right in front of you is truly amazing. She's also very amusing in person, cracking jokes and making funny observations between songs. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 03:00:01 -0400 (EDT) From: Mike Matthews Subject: Today's your birthday, friend... i*i*i*i*i*i i*i*i*i*i*i *************** *****HAPPY********* **************BIRTHDAY********* *************************************************** *************************************************************************** ******* Joerg Plate (Joerg.Plate@arbi.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de) ******** *************************************************************************** -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- - -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Joerg Plate Mon June 12 1967 Gemini Chris Montville Tue June 13 1978 Gemini Ectoplasm (original name) Mailing List Thu June 13 1991 Fuzzier blue Paul Huesman Wed June 14 1967 coffee drinker Mark R.

I think that's true for almost everyone. I know my voice sounds better to me in my head than in any recording of it I've heard. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 15:37:16 -0500 (CDT) From: kerrywhite@webtv.net (kerry white) Subject: Re: Happy's voice Hi, I've seen HR 3 times. Once sat very close to her. When she hits those wonderful high notes, there is an extra sparkle in her eyes and an extra tug on the sides of her smile. I thought that maybe her voice tickled the insides of her head. Or, it looks like she has just seen an old dear long lost friend come into the room while singing those notes. A very neat visual extra!! bye, KrW I'm Peter Pan! I'm perpetually young!! OW!! What's wrong with my back? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 22:36:54 +0000 From: alberto carrasco Subject: Re: Happy's voice Dear Ectoids, Long time, first time.... I've only seem Happy once, in her only Chicago show to date with Project Lo, so it wasn't even a proper Happy solo gig. Though I knew her catalogue inside out before seeing her, I still wasn't prepared for the clarity, resonance and sheer emotion of Happy's voice live. I got to the venue early and it was locked up but I stood alone outside and was able to squint through the windows and see Happy and Project Lo onstage doing their soundcheck. When she began to sing, her voice was so pure and powerful it cut right through me... giving me goose bumps as I stood there, with cars whizzing by on a busy Chicago street. It completely disarmed me and I literally had a lump in my throat... it was so profound and touching, I fought back tears. Don't ask me which song... it was such a personal moment, I'm keeping that to myself. Even recalling it now is emotional for me. Later, after they opened up, Happy was alone at the bar and I told her how thrilled I was to finally see her. I mentioned my moment standing outside and she looked in my eyes and was so beautiful and so kind... she put her hand on my arm and said, "Oh. please... save your tears." Working as a journalist, and being just a big fan of all kinds of music, I've seen close to 2,000 concerts over the past 25 years and I can count the times I've been so moved by a voice on my fingers. Needless to say, seeing Happy live is a must. You'll consider yourself lucky... as I do. ~Alberto ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 16:07:45 -0700 From: "Angel's Shadow" Subject: Fw: free promo cd - ----- Original Message ----- From: balligomingo To: Angel's Shadow Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 9:41 AM Subject: Re: free promo cd We are happy to finally announce that the new Balligomingo album "Beneath the Surface" is available in stores across the US and Canada beginning today, June 11th through RCA/BMG.
