Title: I'm new
Post by: nessasmainsqueeze on April 29, 2003, 02:40:56 pm
Well,

My first post and I dont know what to write.  Guess I'll just introduce myself.  My name is Tom, I'm 22, and I love Vanessa Carlton's music.  I guess that would qualify me as a "Nessaholic" right?

I look forward to reading the thousands of posts in the future.

I guess I have to read up on 900 some odd posts then to figure that one out huh?  I guess I have some reading to do.  Why is nikkee's name in green on the board?  What is a Moderator?

she moderats posts and such on these boards, because on the official VC board, there was so much drama and trama, and here they filter out a lot of stuff to make it warm and inviting for all fans, and thats part of her job.  She has done so much for NESSAholics.com along with other people (she made my black and green NH banner in my sig).

and you don't have to read all her post to know she is great, just read future post from her.

I looked at the offical board a long time ago.  But I decided that it was filled with too many "teenie boppers" who just liked to argue about irrelevant subjects.  I looked on that board a while ago, and saw a link to this board, and just bookmarked it (didnt have time to really look in here at the time due to too much drama in my life).  

The only drawback to this board, it only has 401 members, where as the offical board has over 10k.  Oh well.  Bigger is not always better, right?

NYnessaholicGina,  Thanks :)

exactly.

when the VC.com boards only have 401 members it was nice, and besides a lot of 10k are people with 10 screen names.

If that were the case, there would only be a thousand people on that board, and it would still be nice.  I dont think I've ever seen it with less than 10 thousand users.  Oh well, I guess I jumped on the band wagon too late huh?  Did all of you transfer from the offical board to this one?

not to mention the database with 10k users feeds many forums all supplied by fullashit err fullerene...

so i think probably 2k are maybe VC fans (Eminem has the same fullerene board) and of the 2k, probably most are duplicate names like Joey said :)

btw, welcome!  If you have time you might want to check out the faq and rules... it has some info about what we do and why we're here if you haven't already... and why some people are green, dark blue and light blue!

cheers and happy posting

Well crud.  But currently I'm on a mission to find "Afterglow" and "Birdie".  They're around here somewhere, I just need to look in the right spots.  :wink:  Interesting... I just found a cover song that Vanessa did :)

why do you wish to find them?  and how do you know they're around here somewhere?

she has only performed Afterglow at 2 shows and Birdie at 1 (recently) not including her playing it over a year ago.  What about Ameriteen? :)

Yes, I know she covered that song, I do have the cd, What kind of fan would I be if I didnt have hte cd?  But this cover is just a tad different.  It sounds like Vanessa; but it's Michelle Branch's song "In Love With You"??  The thing I dont get, is why would Michelle do this song with a piano?  Hmmm.  8O

And why would I want to hear these songs?  Strange question.  Why wouldnt I want to hear them?  I love music, plain and simple.

Interesting you mentioned Kazaa, because I found that song through an FTP search program, not a P2P program like Kazaa, or eDonkey.

nikkee,
It's just a screenname.  The name means nothing about who I am in the real world.  Thats just a fantasy of mine. :wink:

Yes, I know Kazaa lables are lame.  The only good thing that kazaa is used for is downloading underground racing movies :wink:.  but as I previously stated, I didn't find it on Kazaa, I found it on someone's FTP folder (which they probably got from kazaa anyway).  But thanks for the clairification Trish.  

My hunt continues for Afterglow and Birdie though.  I just wanna hear them.

Someone asked "How do you know they're around here somewhere?"  Simple question, and this needs a simple answer.  EVERYTHING you ever wanted to know is on the internet.  Scary enough, I once found blueprints and detailed instructions to make a low yeild (2 Megaton) nuclear weapon.  Now, if such a devistating device can be explained in detail and put on the net, wouldnt a simple 3 Meg song be accessable somewhere as well?  The answers are out there, and they will find you if you want them to.  

And just to add something in the mix.  I have a dedicated 80 Meg Hard Drive soly to MP3's.  It's about half full at the moment, racking up over 12,000 MP3's, at well over 600 hours of constant music.  More than 25 days of music without repeating a single song.  Not to mention the 400 CD's I have too :wink:.  I guess I have a chemical disorder; who could ever listen to that much?

You can also learn a lot about people on the net too.  nikkee kinda sparked my interest (only because she has the most posts here), so I went looking for info.  Found out some interesting stuff that was still on (burried) the VCMB.  I know know why nikkee is so popular:
posts: 11656
With that many posts... it's no wonder why everyone knew her.  :wink:  I have a lot of reading to do.  Does this look familular?

yes it is familiar... and you don't have to go back and read my posts on the VCMB to get to know me. You can talk to me instead.  I don't understand why I have sparked your interest.  There are 400 other interesting people on this board as well.

Alright nikkee,

Here's a question for you.  Whats up with your signature?  

Quote from: "nikkee's Signature"

"I wish I could sleep but I can't lay on my back because there's a knife for everyday that I've known you."


From the sound of it, it doesn't sound good.  And from what I've already learned, you're a pretty easy going person.

I've got more reading to do :wink:.

Hey thanks CheapandEvilgrl and Jason!!  

Yeah, I'm not too shy and I am not afraid to meet new people.  By the way, Guinness is pretty yummy :)

And yes, Love sucks.  Even if you love someone, it can still suck if you can't be with them.
