Missy_C:          Hi KENNY!!!!
NancyC:           Hey everyone, look at Kenny's head!!!
Margaret:         Hi Kenny..welcome!
*Macnutª:         !WELCOME KENNY
*KLoggins:        Hi Folks!!!  we're about ready to start:)
*Loss Angeles©:   Hi kenny
*Grey .¤.:        )APPLAUSE
The Pretender:    Welcome the Ever Wonderful Mr.Loggins :)
*KLoggins:        We're going to jump right in with questions!  Ready?
Stephanie:        ok lets start our cds
The Pretender:    yep
*Arctic Frost:    We sure are, Kenny!:)
Lady Lotus:       I loved the Unimaginable Life website, great support for those of us fellow seekers, any plans to bring it back?
*KLoggins:        Yes, I've been working with Sony and the reviews of the new website seem to be coming in.

Samar (KennyLoggHead): Kenny, what or who was your biggest inspiration for "December."  I know it was Julia for the UL?
*KLoggins:        I've been working on December in the back of my mind for the past 10 years.  I wrote "On Christmas Morning" almost 11 years ago with David Foster.  I jumped into the Christmas album right after UL because Columbia records asked for it ... and I felt ready to do it.
Samar (KennyLoggHead): That one's (On Chrismas Morning) my favorite Kenny.  You were beautiful on Howie's show singing that one.

*KLoggins:     Stephanie is up next.
Stephanie:        Kenny are you going to do a Christmas video to go with the CD?  We all would LOVE that?
*KLoggins:     So would I.
*Arctic Frost:    Oh what a great idea, Steph!
*KLoggins:    But at this time I don't have the money to create a Christmas video
*Arctic Frost:    Awwwww
Christel:         We'll wait for that next year!!
Stephanie:        well we will all be looking for it in the future
*KLoggins:   I'm hoping Columbia Records will support me in that endeavor
Stephanie:        lets all get on Columbia for that Video

Margaret:         Thanks for your time in Sacramento, can we look forward to more workshops in No.California?  It was a magical evening and great to see you again..
*KLoggins:        Julia and I loved it. We have been invited to speak in the Unity Church in Monterrey, but there's no date set as of yet

Missy_C:          Hi Kenny!!! It's me, Missy! I just LOVE December so much! It's so cool to have your CD to listen to and put me in that special Christmas time mood. Anway, now that there's no more message board or ... concert/appearance update sections on your web site I've set up a temporary "KENNY BBS" area...
*KLoggins:        Hi Missy!!
Missy_C:          on my own web page because everyone misses it so much. Could you tell us your future plans for your web site and is there anything I can do to help you?
*KLoggins:        It's coming back....the message board.  I'll be updating my web site right after the holidays.
Missy_C:          oh, great!
*Drookie .¤.:     wonderful : )
*Grey .¤.:        !WOOoo whooo
*Arctic Frost:    )applause
*Macnutª:         )applause
Missy_C:          I'm really happy to hear that...If there's anything that needs to be said before then I'd be happy to post it on mine
*KLoggins:        I would like to encourage everyone to use Missy's bulletin board in the mean time :)
*Drookie .¤.:     That's great Missy : )
Missy_C:          Thanks Kenny!
*KLoggins:        Missy will work with me on keeping everybody in the loop
Missy_C:          Sounds great!
*Drookie .¤.:     Excellent
Missy_C:          Just Keep me posted Kenny, you know how to reach me
*KLoggins:        ok Missy :)


NancyC:           Hi Kenny.  Thanks to you and your enchanting gift of December We've had the Xmas spirit since October :-)  In your liner notes Kenny you mention the love that your dad had for Bing Crosby's White Christmas album and the special significance that it has in your home at Christmas time. "December" will now hold the same place in the heart of our family.  Was creating a "next generation" of imagery part of your plan when you selected and wrote your songs for this CD?
*KLoggins:        Thank you Nancy ...  I wanted to write songs that spoke to our generation the way the great Christmas songs of the 40s and 50s spoke to our parents and grandparents.
*Grey .¤.:        :love the 40's and 50's
NancyC:           The song "December" is so strong in that way.  It brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my face at the same time - WOW!
*KLoggins:        December was the one song I've been waiting to write for a long time. I think that the holiday season tends to be also the "season of denial" when it comes to letting ourselves feel all the colors and emotions of winter.
NancyC:           It's incredible Kenny.  It does all of that and more.
 

*KLoggins:        Too many people feel as if they're on the outside looking in ... that everyone is having a good time but them.  I wanted to write a song that acknowledges both sides of the spectrum ... that Christmas is both a joyful time and a highly charged emotional time ... and that's okay. 
We're all sometimes on the outside looking in ... that's just the way the holidays are.  Maybe if we all talk about it a little bit more, it won't be such a scary thing.
NancyC:           Thanks for such a beautiful tool to open up the awareness of all those feelings.

The Pretender:    Kenny..What was your inspiration for the Song "On Christmas Morning"? And where might I be able to get a signed photo...if possible?
*KLoggins:        The song you're listening to now comes from a memory of lost love,
The Pretender:    your first love?
*KLoggins:        even though I hadn't yet experienced it ... This may seem strange to the newcomers tonight but sometimes I wonder where my songs come from myself.  It's almost like a memory from another time ...
*Macnutª:         oooh =)
Samar (KennyLoggHead): Your soul-memories Kenny?
The Pretender:    well..when you sing it sounds like my insides :)
*KLoggins:        Which inside exactly?  ;-)
*Macnutª:         hehee
*Loss Angeles©:   hehe
The Pretender:    my heart :)
 

Samar (KennyLoggHead): :-) I was really disappointed that the UL singles didn't take off on the radio, especially "Just Breathe."  Do you have any singles released from December yet?  I think "On Christmas Morning" would do GREAT!!!
*KLoggins:        It appears that radio is playing Angels in the Snow and On Christmas Morning ... but Angels is in the lead so far...
NancyC:           That's wonderful!
Samar (KennyLoggHead): I haven't heard them up here in Pennsylvania yet, and I was getting upset. But I have my CD in most of the time anyway I guess.
*KLoggins:        Call your local radio station and request it
*Macnutª:         :call lots =)
NancyC:           You can count on it!
*KLoggins:        contrary to popular belief they actually do care what their listeners think
*Drookie .¤.:     :constantly
Missy_C:          OK!
Samar (KennyLoggHead): Done that :-)  They know my name.
*Macnutª:         lol!
The Pretender:    and buy his cd :)

*KLoggins:        :-) Ok, go ahead Stephanie.
Samar (KennyLoggHead): Kenny thank you so much for your "gift" to all of us.

Stephanie:        Kenny I know John , Don , Kevin , and Chris have their photos from Saratoga just wanted to let you know the rest are on the way.  Need any help with organizing all your photos?
*KLoggins:        Please send them on in...I'd love to post some of them on the web site.
NancyC:           What a time that was!!! (Saratoga!)
Missy_C:          Yea!!   The best 5 concerts of my life ;-)
*KLoggins:        One of my plans for the web site is to run a funny retrospective of all my different haircuts over the last 25 years!
NancyC:          Go Steph!
*Drookie .¤.:     ohh wow : )  lol Kenny
*Macnutª:         :cool!
*Arctic Frost:    Hee hee a hair timeline
*Grey .¤.:        haha
NancyC:           LOL!!!  I can't wait to see that Kenny!
Stephanie:        they are on the way ... BTW my daughter Ashley sang Covnetry Carol at a concert recently.  Her choral ensemble did a great job.
NancyC:           You've had quite a variety of looks, that's for sure!
Missy_C:          LOL! worth looking forward to!
Samar (KennyLoggHead): That's the first comment of everyone I show the clips I have of you Kenny.
The Pretender:    i liked his haircut for the "Back to Avalon" album :)
Samar (KennyLoggHead): My favorite song Pretender.
The Pretender:    nod
*KLoggins:        This gives me an idea...we can vote on my favorite haircut :)

*Macnutª:         oooh yeah!!
Stephanie:        lol
NancyC:           Sounds like fun!!!!
The Pretender:    YAY! :)
*Drookie .¤.:     LOL
Missy_C:          hehe
Samar (KennyLoggHead): The one you're sporting there is most excellent Kenny
*Macnutª:         :and a few locks as prizes? =)
*Maryellen©:      :as long as you keep the beard.. I dont care
*Drookie .¤.:     I quite like the one you got now : )
NancyC:           Life is a collections of stages - I like each of your stages Kenny.
*KLoggins:      Julia and I wrote Angels in the Snow in Hawaii.  I did the photo session right after we got back so my hair's a little lighter than normal :)
Stephanie:        here here Nancy

Stephanie:        BTW my daughter Ashley sang Coventry Carol at a concert recently.  Her choral ensemble did a great job.
*KLoggins:        About Coventry Carol, .... that song was originally done in 6/8.   I changed it to 4/4 when I recorded it with Crosby and Nash ... Did your choral group sing it in 6/8 or 4/4??
NancyC:           How incredibley to harmonize with David and Graham!!!  You belong together!
NancyC:           It must have been some thirill to sing with them!
*KLoggins:        Tell it to Stephen ;-)
Stephanie:        It is a beautiful addition to your CD.  They sang it in 4/4 but Ashley thinks 6/8 sounds better.

*KLoggins:        Go ahead, Judy...
Judy (ZysMom):    Any plans for coming to the Northeast part of the country, either in a workshop or concert?
*KLoggins:        I think '99 will be a year of scattered workshops and minimal concert performances.
The Pretender:    need one in daytona :)
Judy (ZysMom):    but any in New York state
*Drookie .¤.:     Come to Australia ;)
*KLoggins:        To tell the truth,  I've been touring too much over the last 3 years and I'm kinda fried.
Judy (ZysMom):    I can understand that
Stephanie:        no doubt about that one
*KLoggins:        Last night Hana took her first steps ... and I was lucky enough to be home to see it.   I would like to spend this next year getting to know her...
Stephanie:        Little Hana needs her PaPa
*Drookie .¤.:     Awww!!
The Pretender:    aww:)
Stephanie:        How awesome for you
Missy_C:          She's so adorable!!! :-)
NancyC:           Oh wow, first steps!!!
Judy (ZysMom):    oh wow, remember from my kids, one of my sons did on Mother's day, 18 years ago
Stephanie:        and you both deserve that
Judy (ZysMom):    I was the only one to see it

*KLoggins:        It's your turn Margaret?
Margaret:         Where were the photos for the liner notes shot? what a beautiful setting..thanks for such a special gift to all of us this holiday season, and Blessings to you and Julia.  I'm looking forward to listening to you next week at the mark and Brian Xmas show!
*KLoggins:        The shoot was in Mammoth.
*KLoggins:        December is not only my gift to you....but primarily my gift to Julia and my family...
*Arctic Frost:    :he's so sweet
*KLoggins:        that way I get out of Christmas shopping ;)
Margaret:         Now please take a break and spend some quality time with them, you've been sooo generous with your time with us.
*Grey .¤.:         : )
*Arctic Frost:    Hahahaha
*Drookie .¤.:     smile
Missy_C:          LOL
The Pretender:    LOL
Stephanie:        LOL
*Grey .¤.:        hehe
NancyC:           LOL!!  That's adorable!
 

*KLoggins:        Ok, BlackDiamond©, what is your question?
BlackDiamond©:    What one performance that stands out the most in your mind, and why?
Stephanie:        good question
*KLoggins:        The one I wrote about in the book, Unimaginable Life .... somebody remind me ... what was the name of that city?? ;)
Margaret:         LOL...Middleton??
Stephanie:        the one when you just got out on stage in time?
Margaret:         oh, man...where's my book?
*KLoggins:        no it was a little town outside of Chicago
*Grey .¤.:        :houston?
*KLoggins:        A little less outside of Chicago ;-)
*KLoggins:        If it's Tuesday I'm in ....
Margaret:         where the audience had to correct you??  :)
Judy (ZysMom):    Merryville
The Pretender:    err rosemont
Stephanie:        YEA JUDY
Missy_C:          *sniff sniff* yeah
*KLoggins:        Merryville!!!

NancyC:           We at Saratoga will never forget your tribute to Paula Townsend Kenny.  That was unforgettable to so many.  To those that do not recognize the name, Paula was a tremendous person (Kenny fan too) who passed away from cancer.  Kenny sang a beautiful song in her memory.
Missy_C:          That's for sure, thanks again for doing that for her Kenny
*KLoggins:        Paula was a terrific lady and a good friend to us all.  She will be missed.

*KLoggins:        Who's next?  Christel...
Christel:         !HI this is Christel..I was at the Mountain Winery in August ... I absolutely love "December".  In "Angels in the Snow" is my favorite, is that an EWI solo, or an oboe solo?
*KLoggins:        It's an oboe on Angels and an EWI on Some Children See Him.  Everette's playing the ewi.  Also he did a great sax solo on White Christmas!
Christel:         Thanks Kenny!  I need to learn how to play that EWI!!
NancyC:           I saw that Everette Harp is on two of the songs too Kenny!
Christel:         Everette is soo good!!!
Missy_C:          The greatest guy! :-D

Chyna:            Do you plan on putting out an interactive cd plus in the future?  I think your voice is wonderful!!
*KLoggins:        My dream is to turn The Unimaginable Life, book and record, into a multi-layered DVD
*Drookie .¤.:     wow!
*Macnutª:         oooh!
Chyna:            cool
NancyC:           Now we have to get DVD!!!
Chyna:            Thanks Kenny!

minute man:       kenny Merry Christmas. What's your favorite Christmas song and who do you like to hear sing it.
*KLoggins:        Christmas morning isn't complete without Bing Crosby singing White Christmas and Nat King Cole sing Chestnuts :)
NancyC:           And it won't be complete without December now :-)
Stephanie:        I love On Christmas Morning

Anne-Marie(AMK):  "Celebrate Me Home" always seems to be played around this time of year--Do you ever consider that to be one of your first  Christmas songs?   Happy Holidays to you and your family!
*Macnutª:         good q! I love celebrate me home =)
*KLoggins:        It feels great to know that Celebrate Me Home has been adopted as a Christmas song.  It's ironic in a way, because I never intended it to be....but hey ;)
*Grey .¤.:        :s a good one
*Drookie .¤.:     :great one
The Pretender:    trademark song :)
*KLoggins:        Celebrate Me Home was written in NYC as the final song for that album.
mistletoe:        do you know an airing date...
*KLoggins:        It was early December and it looked like I was going to be stuck there for the whole Christmas season.  So I was getting pretty homesick.
*Grey .¤.:        aww
*KLoggins:        That song just poured out, lyrically, in a half an hour.
*Drookie .¤.:     wow...
Anne-Marie:  It brings fond memories as will the songs of December for all of us--thanks.
Judy (ZysMom):    it is a great song, you did an fantastic job performing it on the A&E special.
Samar (KennyLoggHead): Kenny "Celebrate me Home" is amazing Live.  I will never forget that.

mistletoe:        I wanted to know about the filming at Disney in Sept...do you know an airing date?
*KLoggins:        I just okayed 3 songs for that television show yesterday.  I don't know what it'll be called or when it will air... but it will have something to do with Disneyland, I suspect.
*Grey .¤.:        Cool !!
*Drookie .¤.:     Excellent!!!
*KLoggins:        The songs will be For the First Time,  Footloose ...
*Drookie .¤.:     yay!!
*Grey .¤.:        :love that
*KLoggins:        Conviction of the Heart ...
The Pretender:    :Cool :)
mistletoe:        thanks!  that was a special night for me.
*KLoggins:        I really wanted No Doubt About Love to be included but when I saw the rough cut of the video, ... we really sucked...
NancyC:           lol
Arctic Frost:     snicker
*KLoggins:        so I had to pull it from the show.  Everett's ewi went on the fritz and didn't play a single right note
NancyC:           I find that hard to believe.
Judy (ZysMom):    oh not you, Kenny
Missy_C:          I haven't seen it! no fair!
*Drookie .¤.:     :nevah
*KLoggins:        He freaked out and forgot to sing all his vocal parts ... I freaked out and forgot half the lyrics.
Samar (KennyLoggHead): oh no
The Pretender:    hehe
*KLoggins:        :oh well
Judy (ZysMom):    bet the audience didn't notice
*Macnutª:         =)
 

*KLoggins:        :I can't believe Arctic Frost is being this quiet ... what no questions??
*Macnutª:         :hehehheee
The Pretender:    hehe
Arctic Frost:     Hahahahaha!  I'm loving the questions everyone has:)
*Grey .¤.:        :good questions
*Drookie .¤.:     :great questions : )

*KLoggins:        Let's see, Samar (KennyLoggHead) is up next.
Samar (KennyLoggHead): Kenny, you have been such an incredibile inspiration in my life, and to have that inspiration carry into the most intense time of the year, I cannot thank you enough.  Kenny, is speaking to our spirits an effortless effect of your writing, or do you think alot about how everyone can relate to your experiences?
NancyC:           Oh, good question Samar
*KLoggins:        Samar, as a writer,  I try to nail down exactly what I'm feeling in one moment in time.  If I can get it to move me .... it usually moves others.
Samar (KennyLoggHead): So you talk to us just by talking to Spirit
*KLoggins:        More precisely, by  expressing as best I can what's in my heart.
The Pretender:    speaking through the heart is what everyone needs in their life...
NancyC:           That doesn't come easily to a lot of people Kenny.  That's your gift, and in turn ours.
The Pretender:    its what makes love in the heart.. true..
Samar (KennyLoggHead): I remember you told me in an e-mail that my ability to "hear" you is by hearing Spirit.  So it works the other way then.
mistletoe:        it is a tremendous gift...to be a writer.
*Grey .¤.:        :and singer

*KLoggins:        Okay couple more .....
Stephanie:        Kenny any more Christmas appearances on TV for the holidays? And Ashley wants to know if you have bought Luke a horse yet?
*KLoggins:        I'm doing the Christmas in Washington special this coming weekend...however I just found out today that Bill and Hil will be in the Middle East ...
Stephanie:        awwww
Arctic Frost:     Bummer
*KLoggins:        this is the first Christmas show they'll have missed.
*Drookie .¤.:     aww..
Missy_C:          awww
*KLoggins:        But for a mighty good reason.
*Grey .¤.:        aww
*Drookie .¤.:     darn..
The Pretender:    oh gosh...
*Drookie .¤.:     oh?
NancyC:           I wouldn't read too much into that...hehe
*KLoggins:        The horse ... Luke is 5 ... I figured we'd wait until he's...oh say .... 35
*Macnutª:         lol!!
The Pretender:    lol
Arctic Frost:     Hahahahaha!
*Grey .¤.:        hehehe
Christel:         LOL
*Drookie .¤.:     lol
Stephanie:        oh gee , he must be a great rider by now
The Pretender:    Fisher Price horse perhaps?  :)
*Grey .¤.:        :thinking picture of one
Stephanie:        just get him a really gentle one
Arctic Frost:     Snicker
*Macnutª:         hehehee
Judy (ZysMom):    maybe a pony?
*KLoggins:        Luke takes riding lessons almost every week because of his mother's passion for riding.  She rode horses competitively when she was 12.  Luke loves horses too, so I suspect a horse of his own is not too far away.....but not this year ;)
*Grey .¤.:        oh cool
Stephanie:        so does my daughter ... we are building a barn in the backyard for her horse and will buy one for me soon

*KLoggins:        Two more questions .....
Lady Lotus:       Any chance of bringing back the UL part of your website.  It was so wonderful to have an opportunity to communicate about the issues for UL seekers ...
*KLoggins:        Sony made some "sweeping reforms" that I had not okayed.   I will be reinstating the best stuff as soon as I can get through the holidays and focus some attention on to it.  In the meantime, please feel free to communicate with each other through Missy's web site ....
Lady Lotus:       that sounds great, thanks for the life-enhancing and transforming UL work ...
Stephanie:        that is good news ...thanks Kenny
The Pretender:    son was named after "kenny"
Judy (ZysMom):    That is great to hear
*KLoggins:        Missy can you give that URL??
Missy_C:          that's http://www.arken.net/melissa
*KLoggins:        and come chat with each other here......
 

NancyC:           This is so fun.  Alyssa, you've done a fantastic job!!!
Missy_C:          I have a chat page there too for everyone to use
Samar (KennyLoggHead): We wouldn't have the glow of your face in the room though Kenny
Stephanie:        hey don't underestimate our Missy
*KLoggins:        Nancy?  What was it that you had wanted to add to the website when I last saw you in Saratoga?
NancyC:           Well, that was the use of a mailing list
*KLoggins:        the one we just set up?
NancyC:           One is in use now, but we need more activity.
*KLoggins:        How do we achieve that?
Stephanie:        it would be great if we could get one off your website ... a mailing list, that is.
Missy_C:          spread the word...it's really a great thing
NancyC:           Possibly by having your participation ;-)  I can email you with a few of the details.
Missy_C:          yeah!
Judy (ZysMom):    maybe set up times for chats, we did that once and it was great.
*KLoggins:        Is this something we can coordinate with the Palace?
NancyC:           I am not very familiar with the Palace, but I can definitely talk to Alyssa about it.
*KLoggins:        Let's start there
NancyC:           That sounds great.  I will follow up and be in touch.
*KLoggins:        Great ... email Alyssa and me
NancyC:           I will
 

Judy (ZysMom):    Kenny, your fan club is great with updates, Liz doing a great job
Stephanie:        and everyone knows what is happening or what the hot topic is
Missy_C:          and we can post the info on my message board too
Judy (ZysMom):    Kenny, you are so wonderful to your fans, great personal contact, really appreciate that.   I don't know of any other performer who does that.
Missy_C:          I know. Kenny's just the best!
NancyC:           I think it will generate tons of energy in your direction.
Stephanie:        It would be really nice if we could combine all of those at AOL and the other sites together in one mailing list
NancyC:           That is a wonderful idea Steph
Stephanie:        and of course when the web site is up and running againg we will all be there too
*KLoggins:        Alyssa is always on my back...pressuring me into these ridiculous chat rooms;)
Arctic Frost:     Hahahaha
Missy_C:          ridiculous, huh? LOL ;-)
