Wuzzat?

One of the singers of the Good Lovelies dropped by my shop with her family of
kids just now. Celebs always seem to look different in their relaxed offstage
identity.

Never heard of "Good Lovelies"; are they local? What kind of music? (I know you well enough to presume it's not rap *LOL*)

I've hgeard this about celebs out of their normal habitat. . .

That they're generally decent people & not all diva-like, & usually near nothing like their key roles. . .

I've never met a celeb -- doubt I'd recognize even the most famous omes if I met them & even shook their hand. Well, the lovely ladies I have my low-key celeb crushes on, maybe, & maybe those with a most distinctive physical aspect/look (e.g. Tony Randall, if he's still among us)

I very raely learn the look or names of movie, music, or tv delebs. . .

I'm most intgerested in their output.

I might learn a name just to look up more from their videography, but that's rarely on their looks, & more on acting ability, even so, I'm just focused on matching the name. . .

Always a disappointment to find out, occasionally, that an actress I like the overall look of, is only a young teen, dressed & acting like an older woman. I give kudos to her being able to act in a role she's not yet lived/experienced, but then my interest wanes. . .

Never met one anyway, so no biggie. . . I watch the stuff I've seen them in & enjoy the show itself. . .

Telegram is a message app for for iOS/MacOS/Android/Win/Linux:

Combined with the creative genious of the fellow operating a
Fido node in Russia: Stas Mishchenkov (2:460/256), a curated
selection of echos are traversing between Fidoland and the
Telegram system.

Just install Telegram (you will need access to a smartphone
that accepts SMS for activation - but it *doesn't* have to be
your smartphone particularly) and then send the command %HELP
to the entity @Fido2telebot. If you send the coommand %LIST,
you will get a list of all echos available, including the
Russian ones that Stas' is supporting in his own native
language. You should be able to recognize the English ones; the
tagnames are the same as used in Fidoland.

They present folky contemporary material. And.. you are quite
right about my attitude about rap. The only rap tune that I
*do* still admire in a musical way is Gangsta Paradise by
Coolio.

Perhaps most of them appreciate not being noticed in the public
when they just want a "normal" outting to shop or run an
errand.

I can still only count on my hand the number of celebs that
have dropped in to my shop: Lloyd Robertson (CBC/CTV
newsanchor), Ed Robertson (singer/songwriter of Barenaked
Ladies), one of the Good Lovlies, ..oh, and perhaps a few
federal politicians that may have visited the area in the past.
