I'll admit to spending too much time on FB, but I'm still posting here at a good clip. I do sense, however, that there are fewer regular posters than, say, a year ago, and social media sites might have something to do with it. I was around for the demise of another performer's listserv (the DarList, which was pretty famous in its time), and it was sad. In fact, I posted the last concert report on it, about a year ago. I wouldn't want to see that happen here. This is a special group of people.
Yeah, Vienna is apparently thriving in her new life. And, you know what, I just love it. Obviously I wasn't around for the last time she was a student/musician, but somehow it just seems right for her. She needed the years she spent full time in music to become a real professional, but now she's been there and done that (and got the t-shirt, really!), and if she plays her cards right she can spend the rest of her life doing only as much music as she wants, with complete artistic freedom. And save the environment, too. How cool is that?
I didn't know Eric got married. Gosh, his wife is gorgeous! He's another one living an amazing life.
