Which MB Members have you met in the flesh?

[crocodile 9,724]

I thought so. Same here. I went out for few drinks the other night and now they label me as an alcoholic. Who would have thought? Me of all people.

Karol

[hornist 1,261]

I would love to meet Karol also.

Hmm, the last thing I'd limit anything like this to though would be musical taste. So limiting...

Well my sentence didn't make any sense. I meant KM once said he can't read music and I've been a professional

musician for 25 years. And I almost every time agree with him about JW's music. I Find it funny and also fascinating.

[Quintus 6,494]

Yeah I hear you there.

[Ren 77]

I talked to a Chris on the phone on 22 may 2004, when I got a call from Indysolo and Ren...forgot his screenname.

Chris is Ray Stefan

wow hornist, i had no idea you were a musician! what do you play! That's great

As for me, I'm just back on my feet here and would hate to forget anyone because hey, tomorrow we could be chatting it up. Obviously, I'd like to meet Stefan, KM, KK, Chaac, Alice, Quint, Alex, Blood, Marian, John T., Joey, etc. etc. etc I'm up for meeting anyone because Boston was an absolute blast.

[hornist 1,261]

I play french horn in Tampere Philharmonics(Finland) but why am I telling this since I'm not in your wish list...

[Ren 77]

sorry, I just got so caught up in the fact that you are a musician. Most everyone here is an incredibly well educated consumer and can talk circles around many musicians - but I haven't met many on the board who are professionals....

you're on my wish list!!!!!!!!!

[hornist 1,261]

If I remember correctly you are teaching music, or some instrument Ren? Or am I totally wrong?

[KK 3,313]

And then there's the women. Thank god for the women! For too long this place felt like a monastery for score lovin' monks.

So this is NOT a monastery for score lovin' monks?!...dammit. I knew I stumbled into the wrong place when I met that crazy ol' BloodBoal...totally lacks the qualities of a worthy score lovin' monk....a shame...Alright guys, I'm off backpacking to search for this fabled monastery again, anyone have any suggestions for where I should look next?

If I remember correctly you are teaching music, or some instrument Ren? Or am I totally wrong?

Correct me if I'm wrong Ren, but she teaches vocals, no?

[hornist 1,261]

[indy4 160]

Incy

This Incy person sounds like a nice guy. Btw Quint, you are becoming dangerously close to surpassing my post count...

[Quintus 6,494]

Mikko is one of the sweetest, most knowledgeable and effortlessly articulate members here, yes.

Hey I just noticed I've passed the 15k mark! I think I stopped looking too much around about the time I changed my moniker from TheGreatEye, and also one gets used to the bare bones mobile view after a while (typing this in bed).

[Ren 77]

yes KK and hornist, I direct a set of school choirs, a professional childrens choir, teach piano privately and also teach general music topics (film music heavy) to non performing musicians

[alicebrallice 134]

that's cool, ren

and I just passed the 500 mark. I wonder if I'll ever get to 1000 or if I'll get tired of this place hehe...

[Ren 77]

that's cool, ren

and I just passed the 500 mark. I wonder if I'll ever get to 1000 or if I'll get tired of this place hehe...

thanks!

Alice, if you're anything like me - you'll be back.....you won't be able to shake them forever ;-)

[Quintus 6,494]

I'll be surprised if Alice makes it to 1000, but I hope I'm wrong.

[Ren 77]

I'll be surprised if Alice makes it to 1000, but I hope I'm wrong.

pffft, she will.. no doubt in my mind

[Quintus 6,494]

Only going off female poster track records! Anyone remember the other girl a while back? Whatshername, not Padme...

I'm sure AI chased them all away.

[hornist 1,261]

Alice will stop after 789 post since Johnny is too Symphonic and most of us are too old for the company...

[alicebrallice 134]

Alice will stop after 789 post

challenge accepted.

start saying your goodbyes, everybody!

[hornist 1,261]

278 to go, choose your words carefully...

[KK 3,313]

[media=]

Sounds like a nice place....but not quite what I'm looking for. It needs to be more nerd-infested!

yes KK and hornist, I direct a set of school choirs, a professional childrens choir, teach piano privately and also teach general music topics (film music heavy) to non performing musicians

Thats actually really cool Ren. Heck, I would never have guessed all that solely based on your convos in the "Other Topics" section!

Alice will stop after 789 post

challenge accepted.

Hehe...I just realized I passed the 1000 mark. I guess I'm one step closer to being stuck here forever eh?

And personally I think Alice will get stuck here like the rest of you guys eventually too....JWFan seems to be like a black hole...and endless abyss sucking you into the unspeakable...

[Hlao-roo 390]

Dani? Greta? Kathy? Aren't we giving AI too much credit and his putative targets too little?

[indy4 160]

There was a JWFangirl at one point.

[Marian Schedenig 11,694]

So far Ren is the only woman who's stuck around for quite a few years. Albeit with interruptions.

[Ren 77]

greta

yes KK, i shape young minds every day with a filthy mind like i have

So far Ren is the only woman who's stuck around for quite a few years. Albeit with interruptions.

Boo, sorry Marian. Interruptions no more. I'm glad I've reconnected with people and I'm not losing that part of me again for anyone.

[KK 3,313]

greta

I never meant in that way, hope you know that. I know you're a really cool person. What you witnessed was simply my poor and pathetic attempt at a joke! Yes, humor is not one of my strength points...

[Koray Savas 2,260]

There was a JWFangirl at one point.

Yeah Corey. She's one of the ones AI scared away, but I've got her as a friend on Facebook. Greta seems wonderfully busy with her life through her status updates.

Off the top of my head there are a few members I'd like to meet, but then the more I think the more keep popping up. There have been plenty of interesting people over the 6 years I've been here.

Lee, Jay, Joe (all three of them), Mark (Olivarez and KM), Marc, John, Blume, Wojo, Rich... it goes on. I do miss the likes of Bryant, Jeffrey, Diego, and the Barnsbury bros.

[indy4 160]

There was more than one Barnsbury?

Oh yea, whatever happened to Diego?

[Incanus 5,890]

I have met Incanus couple of times, we had brief chats after my orchestra's Lotr symphony concert, few years ago and JW 80 years concert, early this year. Nice guy.

did he get free tickets?

are there any videos from those concerts?

Free tickets? But of course

I saw somewhere in the net video(fan made, trembling) , parts of the Lotr-symphony. Cant find it anymore. Anyways, that quality didn't

give the right picture of the performance.

Hornist is also the only other JWFan I have met. A really nice guy.

[Ren 77]

It's HIGH time for a meetup everyone......

[Incanus 5,890]

Is there a way of applying for conference funding for such an important event?

I would love to meet fellow JWFans from different countries.

[Ren 77]

What a great idea! In the summary of events would we include the drinking and such under meet and greet?

[Quintus 6,494]

Heh, reading this back now, I can really tell I'd had a little drink last night.

[crocodile 9,724]

I still love you.

Anyway, ladies and gentlemen. I said that before and I will again:

Williams, LSO, London, November the 8th.

Take a hint.

Karol

So this is the MB equivalent of waking up in a strange house next to some minger?

[Koray Savas 2,260]

Oh yea, whatever happened to Diego?

I mentioned his name in one of those "Where'd they go?" threads and he sent me a PM saying he still reads occasionally. That was a long time ago though so I don't know if it's still true. I remember he had a lot of internet connection problems where he lived.

There was more than one Barnsbury?

Ray Barnsbury (Chris) and Sturgis Podmore (Michael).

[Miguel Andrade 1,725]

Scissorhands (Peio) and Miguel Andrade, who is one of the closest friends I have

Edit: Miguel, we literally posted 10 seconds apart

Great friends post alike

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383]

i would love to meet you one day Miguel, and see your collection. I think I would be in awe.

[Incanus 5,890]

Heh, reading this back now, I can really tell I'd had a little drink last night.

Yes you can blame it all on the alcohol afterwards.

[BloodBoal 8,711]

[hornist 1,261]

Hey that's my line!

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383]

And mine...

[Thor 9,362]

I think a JWFAN gathering is perfectly doable. Just pick one of the major events (perhaps in Europe, since most of the members here seem to hail from there) and go! That's how things are done at FSM, Maintitles, SST etc.

Personally, I would love to meet Miguel Andrade, who I've known for so many years on the internet only. Same with Ricard, even though we've disagreed on certain points over the years. We were actually supposed to have met in Barcelona a few years ago, but that never happened due to his time schedule.

I hope an opportunity arises to meet some of you at some point.

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383]

We were actually supposed to have met in Barcelona a few years ago, but that never happened due to his time schedule.

He was probably just trying to get out of it.

[crocodile 9,724]

And I thought that was genuine. Silly me.

Karol - who would like to meet plenty people from this board (no point of making a list)

[BloodBoal 8,711]

Lists are cool. They make people at the top of them feel awesome, and people at the bottom feel miserable. How cool is that?

[Quintus 6,494]

I still love you.

My second child is due Nov 1st! I only know that because it's a week before Halo 4.
