Lori Nuic Sparkles
A soulful vibe along with an amazing voice is what Lori Nuic is gifted with, she got the crowd grooving as she performed at Launch Pad at the Cameron House for the first time. This young starlet started out by playing a big part in a high school musical, Leader of the Pack, bringing her to the stage today and playing songs that any crowd would love. "Just to have an audience to listen to you is cool," Lori said. The energy in the audience was amazing as this Kitchener girl sang, looking like she has been doing it for years. Together with her eclectic voice, she mainly plays the guitar but also dips into the keyboard. Before Lori's performance at Launch Pad, she asked the audience for some spoons or a cowbell which she also likes play, adding a little spice to her tunes. Too bad no one had any of those instruments to spare. Dancing was what Lori started out with taking it into University, but she said, "I knew that music was what I always wanted to do." As a young age Nuic learned how to play the guitar and her voice was discovered after singing songs from the movie Beaches with her friend. "It doesn't seem like hard work when you love what you are doing," Lori said. She is not the only one in her family to have such passion for music. Lori's brother is in a band and plays the drums and bass. "I look up to my brother because he is a musical genius," Nuic said. Lori is working on her first album. To her it has been a lot of fun to create, yet stressful. You will be able to see it out in early 2005. I will definitely be looking forward to seeing Lori at the Cameron House in the future, she has so much talent and a great personality to go with it. Farris Green

Is Your Child Capable of Composing Music? Maybe the Next Mozart?
We've all heard of them. Child prodigies who begin composing music at some ridiculously young age. For instance, history reports that Mozart was writing minuets by the time he was five years old.

How to Buy an Electric Guitar
For most of us, making any major purchase, such as a new refrigerator, or a new car, is a cacophony of options and confusion; do we want the silver one or the black one? How much can we afford to spend? Will it last over time? If nothing else, we at least know what we need these appliances to do: the microwave needs to make the food hot quickly, the car needs to get us from one place to the other without breaking down.

However, if you follow a few simple suggestions, you can make your guitar-buying experience a whole lot easier.

Learn Piano the Easy Way!
There are essentially two ways to learn piano - note reading or chords. For those who want to spend years learning how to play other peoples music, note reading is the way to go.

Celtic Music: The Japanese Connection
My friend, guitarist Brian Hughes, toured with the Chieftain's in Japan as an opening act with Loreena McKennitt.

In Japan they played about ten shows between Tokyo and Osaka, mainly at soft seat classical concert halls. The seating ranged from 1500 to 4000 capacity. They were booked through the agent Plankton who specializes in Celtic music. Although the audiences were enthusiastic Brian felt that Celtic music was still a niche market in Japan.

Building A Good Relationship With Your Guitar
The guitar is considered the friendliest musical instrument there is. It is because the guitar is the handiest musical instrument that could stand on its own. A group can enjoy music with just a guitar even without the accompaniment of winds and percussions. The term "acoustic" is referred to, in the music context of today, the rendition of songs in all the glory of guitars. No percussion and piano and other instruments needed, just guitars. Sometimes, it can be the jamming of more than just one guitar. Acoustic is a favorite type of music today because of its relaxed and soulful rendition of songs.
