Hi ya. I'm a singer and a radio DJ -
but don't get the wrong idea...
I'm not one of those FAKE accounts
collecting friends on myspace for self-
promotion. I HATE THOSE PEOPLE.
I'd like to meet REAL people from
all over the world who have FEELING ... and
PASSION & the DESIRE to stir up trouble...!
Ya man! Only boring people get bored! ;)
(Actually, I don't mean to cause trouble... !
But I do have a tendency to say what I think...
And for some reason, that stirs up ALL kinds
of shit... . But isn't that always the case?)
A little history:
I began recording the Nothing But Trouble album
while in a really rough relationship... My then
boyfriend was a Jekyll & Hyde kinda character. The
album, but more importantly - the kindness of my
producer (who rescued me from the physical abuse)
probably saved my life.
Nobody else knew I was getting beat up
and I really, really regret having kept it a secret.
I regret not being able to walk away after it
happened the first time. I learned more about myself
though, & about what being strong really means.
So, it's only appropriate that I dedicate this
album to the mission of helping others find
that same kind of strength; that same kind of
dignity that comes from walking away from the
trouble in our lives. That's what this album
is about & I truly hope that it lifts you up to listen
to it - just as much as it did for me making it.
Before I sign off, I also hope that you'll listen to
the radio show Fame Games every week!
We upload the show to the net every Wednesday
night & those links are here!! It's a wild show & fun
to listen to when you're surfing the net or working
out -- particularly working out! It certainly makes
my time on the treadmill fly by!! (God, I hate it when
time drags on the treadmill!)
FIVE EPISODES of FAME GAMES every week!
NEW SHOWS uploaded every Monday through Friday!!
Fame Games is a wild show and me, Lexy, Jake,
Paul,Graham & Sid host it (see me top friends!).
I love them. They rock my world. We are all doing
our part to help bring more Independent music to
the mainstream. We hope you will too by listening to
the show every week! There's some really
hot music there that you MUST check out!!
Also, if you're a band or singer needing some
radio play - give us a shout! We love you already!
The world is much better place because of
Independent music! And we at Fame Games aim
to make sure the WHOLE world realises this!!
Just one more thing -- I DO try and answer all the mail,
but sometimes it's real tough with my schedule. Please
forgive me in advance. I DO try to read everything and
can't thank you enough for your messages and comments.
YOU make myspace a better place!
...Whatever brought you here to me, I'm so glad.
We are all human so we are all friends.
Friends make life worth living.
Much love,
Laura xxxooo

* THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE TUNES *
1. WHILE YOU WERE GONE... A love song ... Let me clarify that: A horny love song. It happens to the best of us. Please note: The chorus is merely a dramatisation of events. DO try this at home.
"While You Were Gone" Concert Footage above!
2. OUTRAGEOUS... Geeeez... I was pissed off on this one! The message is simple: TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS. Choose your friends wisely. Choose your boyfriends/girlfriends wisely. They rub off on you. (See Relevant Quotes in blog)
3. ONE IN A THOUSAND... True friends are like gold dust. Treat them well. Read this poem: "The Thousandth Man" by Rudyard Kipling. BE the friend you wish to have.
4. NOTHING BUT TROUBLE... Now this is MY kind of love song: a total disclaimer to your boyfriend or girlfriend. Try it. When they start complaining you can say, "I TOLD YOU SO."
FILL ME UP... A political track about the rising cost of fuel. Help! (Listen to more songs from the album by clicking below!)
