“Sweet, Sweet Nikki, the pitfalls of the "music business" is something we are all subjected to, at one time or another! In your case, you have so much talent and smarts going for you (besides your beauty) you must not let it deter you... Expect it, and I'm certain you will surely climb that next plateau!!
Much love, Vinnie”

Vinnie Bell, Legendary session guitarist/inventor
