Anything after that > date I hate with > a passion. No, see, I like the folk music, some of which is pre-1800. :) I forgot to mention Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band's seasonal songs last night. Oh, and I'm with Meth. Susan McKeown and Loreena McKennitt rule this time of year also! Btw, today's Guardian gave 'The Golden Compass' four out of five stars. (But note that the critic doesn't know the books; I still may scream. However, he thought Nicole Kidman was brilliant, so maybe I won't scream that loudly.) http://film.guardian.co.uk/features/featurepages/0,,2217698,00.html Ellen, home sick again, but feeling a little better. I need to return to work tomorrow. This cold/flu bug going around is a nasty one!

I'll report back once I've seen it. That's great, thanks, though it looks as if Happy may have been left on the cutting room floor (as usual). Cynthia Conrad (Blood Ruby) was in contact with someone who saw the film on opening night. This person is not familiar with Happy in any way, and doesn't remember anyone playing a guitar or anyone named Happy. The good news from this person was that she loved the film, and that it got a standing ovation at the festival. Wouldn't you know it, it's going to be a great success, and Happy's not in it. It would seem. I don't know why the filmmakers would travel all the way to upstate NY (it's an 8-hour round trip from New York City!) and film Happy for several hours, and not use a bit of it. Well, until someone who does know Happy sees it and confirms, I'll still have some hope, but I thought I should warn you that she may not be in there after all. I had a really pathetic rant written, but I deleted it since we don't know for absolute sure. At the very least, we do know for sure that a former (current?) ectophile is featured, Cynthia and her band Blood Ruby. It was Cynthia who told the filmmakers about Happy in the first place. ecto is, even anonymously since I doubt she mentioned it or if she did it wouldn't have made the final cut, represented. That's very cool. Vickie ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2007 17:18:18 -0800 From: Neile Graham Subject: Additional Find Me comments? Hey, all-- I'm putting together the page for Happy's _Find Me_ for the Guide. Now you've had some time to live with it for a while, I'd love more comments for the page.
