Autographs

[lana4]

Me like when my cds are signed ! (quand ça vaut le coup !)
C'est un signe distinctif !
Il y a des dédicaces très spéciales, parfois !

and like Princess said, it's just like some of my books that have been signed too.

Yes I have, to answer your question and I would DO IT AGAIN. Granted I don't do it often and the two that I have are on cds but it made me happy at the time because there were from artists who I have admired.

Just for the record the autographs were Alan Cave on his "Se pa pou dat" killer album and Richard A. Morse on his Ram II - Puritan Vodou cd.

For those of you that have probably wanted an autograph from an artist, ask yourself why didn't you do it? Is it because you think they is a stigma attached when asking for a signature? or Do you think some of our artists already have a HUGE egos and somehow you asking an autograph will only make it bigger? Or is it simpy because it takes too much effort and you can't be bothered with such things? Or all of the above.

My autograph FANTASY if you will, is to have every artist who sang on the Haiti Twoubadou cds to sign in permanent marker a Huge Haiti Twoubdou poster for my wall. I know it weird but I thought it would be cool to have.

Yes, I have asked for autographs from HMI to AMI artists and even have autographs of Patriots, Bruins and Celtcis players. I have cds autographs and took pics the members of Carimi, Tantan, Konpa Kreyol, Ginuwine, U2, Andrea Bocelli, Destiny child, Steve Tyler from Aerosmith and a bunch more. Everytime I attend an event I make sure to get either an autograph or pic, sometime both.

I remember when Kennny first started playing with System. He had replaced Franzt Adeclat. It took him a little while to get adjusted to the band. I still have those live tapes. After about a year, he adapted quite well with System.
Can we start a petition to bring Kenny back?

[Ti boxer]

I got some of those live tapes too Mach! Se sa'k fem rinmin'w wi ou minm! Cabine'w fat ak bon dokuman, san cholesterol!

Whenever you want Mach! In fact, we can do so right now.

But in reality - I think the issue with Kenny is one of discipline or lack therof rather then not wanting to play in the band. At least that's my understanding.

who? there is nothing wrong walking up to an HMI artist and asking for an Autograph! Our HMI Artists are Artist too mezamni! Why is it impossible to ask for autograph? Perhaps you won’t do it, but there are others willing to do so. These individuals work hard and to show appreciation for what they doing; taking a picture or asking for an autograph means a lot. Have I done it, yes! However, I have asked to take pictures as well. I found that the picture is more memorable to me, but that does not mean I would not ask for an Autograph. I have attended several concerts/bals and bringing a copy of the cd is the last thing on my mind. My camera is what I usually have with me. I have many pictures that years from now I can look at and say “Oh I remember that day; it was like yesterday to me�. I still have Emeline Michel, Dadou Pasquet, Beethovas Obas, Armstrong Jeune, Wyclef Jean etc. autographs/pictures I need to take.

My problem with your comments is why can’t a fan ask for an Autograph? Is there something wrong with that? You make it seem as if the individual does not deserve to be asked for one. I would not be surprised that you would not ask your favorite Author to sign your Book. Why can’t our Artist be treated like Artist that we respect for their accomplishments?
