Open letter to Vanessa Veselka and the Seattle band Bell

Three children in Australia (one now a teenager; all are middle school or older) are familiar with "Attempted Pop Song #1" and "Upon Greater Reflection":  they've been hearing it in the car since they were infants, and have had it on their MP3 players the last few years.

So:  worldwide recognition.


I should've dumped graduate school and offered to be your bassist:  ah well.  Timing.

And maybe Bell wasn't ready for two songwriters in the group.

You were better than Kurt Cobain.

Although not quite as good as Buddy Holly or Jim Ellison (of Material Issue). But: who really is? ;)
