Dear Friends,
it is really sorrowful for me to say it, but from today we will have to carry on without some of the previous Countess Vanessa members. Without mentioning names, there have been people who didn't behave in a very honourable way, to me and to Franz.
The reasons are various and quite complicated to explain.
There's also one more member who gets excluded, but the reason is nothing negative: what results to me, from my statistics, is that he simply never accepted (by opening the post) the invitations of mine, I sent him three times the same email... So practically he is excluding himself, and it's strange because he sounded so glad to participate to the blog... I have no other way to contact him else than his email addy, so what else can I do...?
So, after repeatedly talking about it, Franz and me decided to exclude these people from the Blogs.
We prefer to keep silence about who they are, and how many.
Enough to say that gratitude is something still so rare, sometimes...
Too many people in this world have the face in the same place of the bum, or the other way around if you prefer.
When I had to close Folk Impossible, as the only solution possible for survival, it was - as I explained - a comedy, a manoeuvre finalized to de-track the attention of all those assholes who wanted SOOO MUCH to make my blog crumble down. So, what best was there to do else than making them happy?
I mean: APPEARENTLY happy!
At the very moment that those people saw that Folk Impossible was "dead", the menace ceased for me, so I restarted reconstructing everything once again, anew, and I was so happy that I would have brought with me all those people who had sounded so friendly and close in that short time!
Unfortunately, about some of them, I was wrong ...
I am trying to make this a safe place, for real music lovers. With the help of some fabulous people!
Every day in the normal life there are problems and obstacles of any kinds happening, so I guess I would be a fool if I'd let more of them increase the already-big-enough burden, don't you agree?
Good, no problems, we will be happy to carry on with the chosen few :-)
So, it's likely that in the next future some of you, Friends, will receive requests from people asking you things like: "Hello my mate, please, can you send me the link to that "[author - x / title - y]" LP that Vanessa posted?"
There you go, at this point you will know who these ex-members are.
Me, personally, I cannot avoid that someone of you forwards links to my albums to them, and I won't do it anyway, because we all are grown-up enough to take decisions, nevertheless let me just stress this: if I had wanted that they received certain LPs from my collection, well, I might have done it simply and DIRECTLY by myself, don't you think?
That's all you need to know.
I want to thank all the people who demonstrated themselves as REAL friends, although (except Franz, of course, who is my bro-in-law), I NEVER ever met them, nor have I ever seen a picture of them!
To name a few, THANK YOU Manila, Janisfarm, Tomatodon, Donna, Gurnemanz, Graaf, Ellen, Joe, and ((my God how can I mention you all??)) all the others who silently keep faithfully following my moves, I am happy that you all are here!
Thank you for being my friends, let me close this message by telling you something that might make you laugh, but it's the truth:
It's YOU who make the blog for me, it's YOUR friendship that rewards me :-)
Big HUGS and KISSES
See you soon, the boat goes on, the show MUST go on!
Your COUNTESS VANESSA
