Excellent, Janey. You’re definitely one of the sweet ones on the server! Thanks for the insights.

    And what do you play now? Generally I play call of duty, Skyrim, and spades on my phone
    Why did you join XI? Years ago when I first met some of the members I thought they were really nice and cool people. Eventually they asked me if I wanted to join and I jumped at the chance. It’s wonderful having a community that has your back.

    What is an interesting fact about you? Back in my acting days I was accidentally in a porno. I got called by a friend of mine and he said they were making a horror movie and would I please be one of the bordello girls in the background. So I went there and I got in my corset and all those little things and during filming, I noticed that there were people rubbing on each other. After the general shot where they showed us all girls just sitting around they cleared the set and went on for the bedroom scene. So yeah, I accidentally did porn

Last night will burn in my memory always! My favorite rock band allowed me up on stage after soundcheck to TRY to hold up with them for a song on my own! Lead guitarist took up my spot down front of stage and recorded a video for me. 
1st I have to say, playing at home along with Youtube videos with no pressure or crashing drums beside you.... SOOOOOOO MUCH EASIER!!! 
That being said, i DID mess up a bit but everyone there said I did an amazing job powering through and even nailed a few spots and drop ins!! My hands were shaking soooo much after lol!
Tonight will be my 50th time seeing the band play
