I know this chick who once balled Blea Fleck. She was pretty hot. She was also missing one of her upper canines. It was off-putting at first, but eventually it sorta added to her je ne sais qua. Mr. Fleck certainly didn't seem to mind.

I know this chick who once had a moustache. She was called Bea Arthur.

also, make 50-100 copies of the album and send it to all the music departments of the top 100 or so college radio stations that report to this magazine.

many of us on this board were college DJs, and many spent a good deal of time going thru all the new arrivals in the mail. If you get your stuff out there, and get it in a case that looks right(the whole sepia photo & proper typeface thing), people will find your disc and you will get on the air. It's as simple as that.

Hell, make sure you give your contact info on the packaging, and you'll probably even get emails from some of the DJs telling you how much they dig your music.

So she can eventually piss all over them for no reason:

Sorry Marissa, I am not Nicolas Quemener. I am from Kentucky, where there are more bluegrass musicians than molecules of water in the atmosphere.

someone on the net posted a very funny message about Bela Fleck. they said that he is having delusions of Bangeur.
Bela is a bango player.
The joke that he has delusions of Bangeur, was a genius comment. I didn't write it.
aldo has been writing me from Staten Island for years.
Aldo is definately not me.
sorry to disappoint you. You can't figure everything out.
Bela is talented, but lacks extreme sensitivity which is what makes up a great musician.
He lacks sensitivity and lacks sensitivity towards others.
He loves his cat, that is good. I love cats.
That means Bela has some sensitivity, but called the cat "Animal."
This is not very imaginative.
and if you were a cat, you wouldn't someone to call you Animal.
This is disrespectful and not an endearing name.
He probably called his wife "Woman."
Like, "come here woman."
Hey woman, want to make love?
Bela is not exactly a man who loves anything too much.

― marissa -marchant, Friday, 12 August 2005 16:58 (eighteen years ago) link

If you were a cat, would you want someone to call you animal?
If you are very good, I may give Aldo my name stage name address.
but not sure yet.
Bela calls the cat "Animal."
wow, that is really a nice name. very creative.

― marissa -marchant, Friday, 12 August 2005 17:01 (eighteen years ago) link

Maybe he named the cat after this Animal:

Delusions of Banjeur is the name of an album by a wonderful avant-bluegrass band called The Bad Livers.

This was the greatest thread I've seen today.

MY TRUE BELA FLECK STORY:
I worked with a guy at my college radio station who was a HUGE Bela Fleck. The Flecktones were coming to down, and this guy acted like Linus anticipating the Great Pumpkin. He got an interview booked, and for like a week, I had to listen to this music that sounded like a banjo being picked apart on some sheet metal.

The day finally came. Fleck was held hostage by this fanboy for at least an hour on the air. Finally, Fleck said he had to get away and go to the venue where he was performing. Fanboy didn't have a car, but oh, young Pleasant Plains did.

So Bela Fleck and I walked through the residence hall and laundry room to my car, Fleck shaking his head and grinning about the last hour taken from his life. We get in my car and I turn the ignition. Since I had been in the car by myself last, the radio was all cranked up. I quickly turned it off, and Fleck looked at me with sad eyes. "Do you mind if we turn that back on?"

I say that I don't mind and he turns the radio on. AND IT'S THAT DAMNED BANJO BEING PLUCKED ACROSS SHEET METAL MUSIC AGAIN. Poor Bela missed out on hearing his own song on the radio for nearly ten seconds.

So I can definitely see how he'd be a lotharious heartbreaker.

BELA SMASH

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 12 August 2005 17:20 (eighteen years ago) link

No, I just think Bela's mind is not imaginative, and he couldn't come up with anything else.
He is like a man in a cave, mesolithic man, grunts, hits his chest and calls every beast "animal." And calls every female, "woman."
He is not overly developed in his mind.
He plays a primitive instrument, sometimes he evolves. Most times, Bela is a primitive man, calls Cats "Animal."
Grunt Grunt.
He has grunted my way a few times.

― marissa -marchant, Friday, 12 August 2005 17:21 (eighteen years ago) link

funny story. Yes, bela is very into thyself.

― marissa -marchant, Friday, 12 August 2005 17:25 (eighteen years ago) link

the man isn't getting much radio play. He isn't a heartbreaker. He is boring an dull.
I am writing crispin and others like him fan letters.
Nothing romantic..
Bela is a dull man, breaking no one's heart except women who play bluegrass.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Friday, 12 August 2005 17:29 (eighteen years ago) link

I would rather not.
There is something that has happened. Bela is very aware of me.
He knows what I look like in person, as he couldn't keep his eyes off me.
But bela is dullsville. I would rather not get into what has gone with Bela Fleck.
But bela is into thyself, cares nothing about others.
The name "Animal," befits Bela's personality. As even his supposed beloved cat is demeaned to an object, a beast, not something he really cares about. If you care about your cat, you would not name the cat "Animal."

Animal is reduced to the name Animal. I am "it."
"it" is better then salmon.

Bela's my aunt's cousin. He premiered this video at Juilliard directed by his brother about the tour he did with Edgar Meyer. I met him before the film (with my aunt) and had no idea who he was. I thought, Baila? that's an interesting name. took me until right about the time the movie started to realize. he seemed like a nice enough guy, but then again i talked to him for 2 minutes. the tour seemed better than i expected.

okay boring story over. i wish i had actually made a complete fool of myself (or him, depending, though that would've been much harder)

Bela Fleck is a two ton man-mountain who could palm a medicine ball. He once punched a hole in a cow just to see who was coming up the road. He taught me how to make love to a woman, and how to scold a child.

Bela might be nice enough, he isn't going to show is bad side to people, especially in a two minute conversation.
But who wants to be with a nice guy who is dull, boring, unexciting and uninteresting.
?
I am not interested in Crispin Glover as a man, but he seems interesting, not a clone thinker. I am not writing a romantic letter to Crispin, but a letter of encouragement.
I am seeking out people like Crispin. He says that he has counter-cultural pursuits. Bela has little in common with me.
He is very independent minded.
I am thinking in the direction of men like him.
Not bela. Bela is too mainstream in his mind. Not interesting enough for me.
Not funny enough for me. I have a sense of humor. I like funny men.
Nicolas is funny.
I look for funny men, men who are not dull and too serious.
Bela and myself would be like chocolate and strawberry. I should knock a different flavor.
But he isn't something similar to me.
Crispin is more similar then Bela is ...

Crispin is not a follower of mainstream thinking.
I don't think Nicolas is very mainstream. and intersting.
How interesting I am not sure.
Bela, seems very uninteresting, maybe nice.
He might be very pleasant. But Bela is a boring man, no real sense of humor and every time I have seen Bela on stage he just has no personality.
He is very bland. But he is a different flavor then myself.
He needs to find a very bland and uninteresting woman, as I pursue intersting people.
Not for sexual reasons, but I am interested in the interesting.
The exciting...

Is this Nicholas Q. guy a real musician?
Yes. He goes under the name Nic Tamere.

― k/l (Ken L), Friday, 12 August 2005 19:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Yes, Nicolas is a real musician.
and a great guitarist.
He is a very multi talented man.
And I have spoken to him, he isn't a total whimp or coward.
He is a humorous man.
He has a great voice.
and a great language. He makes me a bit upset at times, but I am not romantically involved with him, but he someone I feel can understand humor.
BTW, you will never find me, and no private investigator will do the job of having me submit to your will Bela.
I will never submit to you.
I am clearly not crazy, just completely disinterested in you.
Because someone rejects you, you then call them crazy. accept Bela . you are boring. and I have rejected you because you are really not a strong or interesting man.
You have no strength and you are not humorous on stage or in interviews.
Your mind is very standard.
that is why you call me crazy.
the reason, you are not too bright.
and not very strong.
