To Minnesota Fats

Hi Tommy!! Personally I think Brian & his management have shot themselves in the foot with the decision they made to "sack" you. The "informational" website is about as interesting as box of rocks, and about as smart too. Your handling of Brian's website was instrumental in retaining old fans, and attracting new ones. You deserved to be treated better, Tommy, and if Brian is hiding behind his "management" on this, then shame on him! Okay, I'm done with my rant.

Glad to hear from ye again Tommy! Again, I can't thank you enough for the great work you did on the website all those years. It definitely added a dimension that isn't present today. I enjoyed all the extra features and content that made the site and forum so much more than any other artist site out there. Hope all is well for you and your family, and thanks for checking in with us.

Tommy The Cat, so good to hear from you!!!!!!!

Hot Rod Girl, the board has been quite interesting despite B and T's absences... there have been quite a few interesting topics, lots of people particupating and replying to topics... the fact that these two guys are on the board again, as well as NONE of the members of this board, doesn't make topics either less or more interesting...

Oh but the information given your great girlfriend Kelley were very interested! She entertained everyone and you form a formidable duo!
She must miss many people!

Seriously ,am I missing something here.......is Kelly not a real person either ?

you mean that kelley is not a real person?

I have no idea if this Kelley person is real or not, but I'll tell you this.....In the almost 10 years that I worked on that other website, I answered tens of thousands of emails from fans all over the world (and some from other worlds like Chad) and in that time, I never came across anyone like this "Kelley". Knowing a thing or 2 about created screen names, I'd have to say she was created by someone with an agenda. What that agenda is, who knows? If "Kelley" is a real person, that I'll stand corrected, but I ain't buying it. Just saying....

Minnesota Fats was created by a friend of mine.

Why didn't HE solve the mystery then? Doesn't even care to post one last clarificatory message? Wow.

Brian's world was very private before he allowed me to come on the scene and represent him via the website. The window I opened exposed him in a way that probably wasn't....well....it DEFINATELY wasn't neccesary.TM

Thus the decision to publish a book about him? I don't get it. But I'd buy your book rightaway, I'm also hoping for a Brian Setzer biography.
Cheers, Chris

Sherm moved on Chris. What can I tell ya? A message from him is not forthcoming.

A book? If I wrote a book about my old friend, I'd have to change the names to protect the innocent. A member of this board was sending me Private Messages last week. He kept asking me what I was doing with my time. To get him off my back I told him I was writing a book. I have no intention of doing that, it was a joke. I should publish a book of my photos though.....

Ah, oh, I didn't know this was a joke, I am sorry. So now that you're so diligently solving one mystery after the other, what's the story about Jean Genie?

Edit: Sherm must have moved quite rapidly, eh? And far away from any civilized area...

I'll tell Sherm that you are concerned about him.

Jean Genie? Refresh my memory.

Yeah, and tell him it was a pleasure to be at his service. No wait, I didn't contribute...

Chris, do you know Rene Schuppli??

Testing out new member names?

What's the problem Chris? No sense of humor?

What makes you think that? I'm laughing: Hahahahaha!! I can't stop, Hahahahaha! Rene Schuppli? Of course!
Edit: Still laughin', see?

I can tell stories about Rene Schuppli you wouldn't believe, but you first: So Jean Genie was a model from Sweden, right?

I had nothing to do with Jean Genie. I have a vague memory of that.....super fan who claimed that I got her backstage passes, right?

You really know Rene? I'm concerned about him. Have you seen him lately? If you know him, what is the first initial of his wife's name?

No I never heard the name, sorry, I thought this was supposed to be another joke.
Thanks for your info on Jean Genie.

You probably right, but there are too many jokes for me!
I will, this step, swallow a clown, maybe I better understand all these jokes...

I am bambozzled, baffled, bewildered, bothered, as to what anybody is talking about here.
A friend of TM posed as Mr Fats in order to do research ?
Who is writting a book or not about whom or not ?
Has Kelly stopped posting....does she exist ?
I am who I post as ( obviously my name has been changed to enhance my cyber sex life).
So who is a geniune HDVL member and who is not. ?
And as regards racism in Rockabilly.........would that be Psychobilly ,Orange County rockabilly, Euro ya ya rockabilly , Australian Surfboard/ Old Levis to Sears rockabilly or Really Real rockabilly ? ? ?

I don't believe there ever really is/was a Budgie.

Lord Vincent,
LOVE your avatar dood! WHO is that? I think it may be ME!!

Best to ya,
Not TM

Well.....there WAS a Budge....at least I think there was....no wait.....it was all a dream.

Tommy,

René has been lost for a very loooooooooooooong time from the rockabilly planet. Your old friend Lisa The Greaser was always in touch with him, by email and phone, but it´s been over a year since she last heared from him as well.

I met René and wife in Atlantic City back in 2000. He was a cool guy. I have some pics of all of us after the free show at the Casino.

If you find him, tell him to pop up in here.

Another great missing cat is Sky-Antena. He appeared again like a year ago when the 2008 Euro Tour was announced, and he even asked me if he could come to Spain and hang out for the gigs.... after that, never heared from this cool cat either.
