    Default Grace Potter - singer

    For those of you who have heard of Her, well yesterday while out with the Spyder, I met and had a pleasant conversation. I didn't know She & husband Eric ( He's currently building their music studio ) were my neighbors. ( not next door but within walking distance ). A very sociable, pleasant couple. Shje was born in Waitsfield, ( the town next to mine ). She went to the same H.S. as my children. My son was 3 yrs. ahead of Her and my daughter was 1 year behind. ..... Small world ..... Mike

    Lucky you! I have had a crush on her for forever. She was always so beautiful and talented, and I think her song Paris (link below) will always be a classic. Like you said very down to earth - I saw an interview with her once where she said she worked on houses before singing.

    That's lovely. It's fun to meet and make a human-to-human (vs. fan-to-star) connection with a famous person.

    I enjoy her music very much!

    Wow, that was really bad! I just pulled up a quick video to show her singing that song. I know there are a lot more out there I think I watched a hundred or two

    It is a small world. Found out that Barry Bales, the acoustic bass player for the Alison Krauss' band, Union Station, lives just down the street from me. Lamont was his next door neighbor when he lived here. Really nice guy. Very quiet. That surprised me.

    Yes, but do they realize who they just met? You're something of a celebrity yourself, I think.
