One of our own has just suffered a set back ...

Thieves broke into Ramona Collin's house at the end of July. She still performs, singing with live bands but she also uses tracks and does solo shows. She had all her music tracks loaded only onto her Ipad & this was stolen along with the other items taken. She has taken this personally  thinking that the thief apparently wanted to disrupt her gigs.

She thinks the breakin was aimed at hurting her as a singer. She can of course still sing with musicians as she has always done but using the tracks has allowed her to perform at senior centres (which she loves doing) and meant she could do many more live gigs.

As she says I have been a singer in Toledo since 1968. Please keep an ear out if a singer suddenly appears on the scene using tracks covering a variety of genres. This is beyond simple thievery. It’s personal and meant to destroy me as a singer. I have no doubt who is behind this mess. 

She has a FACEBOOK page & I'm sure some messages from her UK fans would help restore her spirits at present.

I saw Ramona at Baker’s in Detroit just over 20 years ago.

It is difficult to offer encouragement after such a heinous event.

It is difficult to move on but move on you must.

Stay strong.

I wonder with it being on the ipad she can retreive everything from the cloud?
