Hi Doug and Vida, I hope you will remember me. You wrote with me back in 1982, when I had Mega Records and Sha-Mel Music. Just wanting to touch base with you guys. I'm still writing lyrics, and currently have them with a publisher in Nashville, and also with Gary LeVox of Rascal Flatts. You can see my myspace page, it is public. Its myspace.com/candycaneinok. I would love to hear from you guys.
Merry Christmas and God Bless,
Candy

Hi Vida and Doug!
It's me: Maggie from Hawaii.
I am playing music (as you both are) and wondering how you're doing these days.
Perhaps wanting to take a trip to visit Hawaii?
Hmm..... I sure would love to play with Doug again!
Aloha!

Thanks for coming over babe,
You are the best you've ever been!
The peak of your power!
Great website,
Love you.

I saw you perform with Sambada 4 years ago at Temple Bar...Wow! What a Party, what a Show!

I've been playing with AMBER MENDEZ up here in Santa Cruz! Hopefully we will be coming down to Santa Monica soon to play our SET!
Vida and Doug are awesome!
-Thank you !

Perhaps you remember Brent and H roadying for firemerchants back in the early nineties. Doug! you shaved yer 'ead! Actually so did I (pretty well had to). I miss those days and remember well when Vida got up and belted out that number at what was it, club lingerie or some other place? whatever, I will never forget that! After all this time, and with this media now available to me, Google them I thought, and there you were. So glad you are still together and producing music when so much love falls by the wayside around us; stronger than ever! John Goodsall is next to impossible to track down but I expected that, flying under the radar. "Typical" as he would probably say. Welsh Author Nigel Graddon contacted me and wanted to know if I could find the elusive John G, he knew John '68-'78. The search is on! I'd appreciate any help if you have any. I'm going to check out the rest of your most excellent site now, I have 14 years of musical catching up to do. Fondest regards, Brent P. Tried your Email but it was returned with fatal errors!

Amazing show at Temple Bar last week. I love Woman of the Waters but you really should record a live CD of your new band. People need to hear this.

Great Site oh and by the way you both Look and sound Marvelous!!!!
Will Try and make it.
Love the music and such growth is overwhelming since the old days
Love you my sister

Hello Doug and Vida, I was just listening to your CD tonight and it's still as spectacular as ever. I've moved out of the NYC area to the Albany area. Things just got a little too crazy in the city. I hope we can still work together in the near future. Let me know if you're ever touring in the area.

Major Tom

JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SAY HI.HOPE EVERYTHING IS GOING WELL WITH YOU GUYS
LOVE YOU,DOUG

Vida,

I just wanted to write a quick note letting you know that it was a pleasure to meet you the other day at lunch in Silverlake!!!

What a small musical world indeed!! And just think, I was taking pictures of your fabulous husband at Terry Bozzio's gig a few months ago (pix here):

My name is Brandon, I went to a camp with Laura Jameson 10 years or more. I have been looking for a long time for her. If anyone knows please have her email me at bkarn321@hotmail.com or call 360-876-7943. Thank you.

I was turned onto to your website from an ad for one of your live performances. Its beautiful! Listening to "Feel Like Crying" was an example of the perfect song at the perfect moment. It really touched me. Thank you.

I don't know if you remember me? I just wanted to say hello to the whole family and to Jimmy! Maybe you guys can get in touch with me sometime!
Love
Kiki

I saw your show recently at the Temple Bar. Amazing! I'll look for you around town. Great work.

I want a signed copy! Tell me how to get one.

Haven't been out there in way too long; miss all of you too much.

-Rick Arnest

Hi,
I stumbled upon your site, nice-looking and groovy music, especially "feel like crying".
A mix of Sadé and Gloria Estefan.

I'll look for your CD.

Do you come to Europe, the Netherlands for concerts? I'd like to go!

Vida, I saw you at the Peace event at the Coldwater Cyn event this afternoon December 15 and was amazed at the strength, power, and intensity of your vision, power, and presentation. Bless you and your great work in the world.

Hey Doug and Vida,

I came across your site. Very cool music and a slick looking site as well. I had a listen to the music. I especially enjoyed "Dance of the Waters/Yenanja ".



How's Donnie these days? Is she a pro bass player like her dad yet? Tell her hello for me as well as any FATE alumni you happen to see.



I'm living in Seattle and lovin it! Been here sense 95. I do comedy improv with Seattle's own "Theatre Sports" improv theatre.



I've been working in the tech field as a systems engineer for the last six years and diggin it. I run my own company http://www.pantheonIT.com I named the company after the 2000 year old roman temple that still stands today in Rome. The Pantheon was a sacred temple where all great minds would meet (writers, philosophers, engineers).



If you want to see me make a complete ass out of myself and have a laugh at the same time check out a cheesy website I built a while ago. I did a funny parody of a Bill Gates commercial that aired a year ago on TV. I highly recommend you watching the original commercial before watching the parody.

If you click the below link you can view the original TV Commercial that

aired:

Hope you guys are well and safe. If your ever in Seattle give me a ring. Id love to see you



Peace, love and cheers in the new year,

Steve

Hello Vida my Dear,

I miss you so much. Jean Allen and Pam Forrest tell me you are doing so great! Please email and we will make some time to get together.

Love you,

Cheri
PS. Dolores is having another baby! She's due November 15th! Scorpio little girl!

Hello Doug and Vida. Nice web site. Shirley, Kim Jr. and Stephanie say Hi too. See you around.

Hey Doug and Vida....

Long time no see !

It's Joe Battaglia here broadcasting from deep in the heart of London, England.

Have fond memories of you and the studio -- crazy times :-)

Come and visit us.

Lot's of love,

Joe

"Big Fatty" was divine and so are you! Lots of love to you all.

NP "I feel like crying"...
I'm hearing Vida for the first time, but frankly I have more listening time in with Doug, in Waternoise, FM, and Keneally. Doug is the S**t! I've been latched onto his playing for years now, and having just started playing fretless bass, he's role model #1 for me right now on that instrument. Dig. Very musical, very tasty playing--every context I hear him in...I need to get the Vida CD!

ed

What an amazing and inspiring collection of music. Fresh and unique. Hope you come to SF soon.

The "Global Village" interview on KPFK was spectacular! Finally people are listening.

Aum Sweetie,

Beautiful website, CD cover and the Grace that contains the "Woman of the Waters" - I want to get CD from you!

Love and Beauty,
Virginia

4 d lunn - didn't you also play w/a band by the name of rapture? i don't see them listed on your resume.

Hello Vida! It's so great to see that your site is up and running.

I'm looking forward to more information on the live dates for you here in LA. Go Swing Brazil!

Muscles

Of all the artists I've ever heard, you are definitely one of them.

Hi Vida, Doug and Dani, The show was wonderful Tuesday night. I am still recovering Look forward to more like that. The WEB site looks great.

Miss you.

I saw your show at the Temple Bar last night. Great stuff!
Excellent music with tons of energy. I heard drums in my
dreams tonight :-)

The site looks great!
