..Hey Cristina,how are ya doin? While growin up who was an inspiratiob for you musically? And  if you could who would be the one artist living or dead you would love to do a duet with?..
 

I'm a musician myself. What's the secret of staying true to yourself and at the same time arranging with the media? I don..t think this is possible nowadays. Sure, they do a lot FOR you, but hey.....one false word.......I know it's important to be in the game.

 

well, i started dj-ing and am wondering if you've done any dance songs, and/or if you see yourself doing any in the future like maybe working w/ a famous(or not-so-famous...me!?!) dj on a dance track/remix.

 

Hey Cristina! I hope you are doing well!
I like to think of myself as someone who can always be there for my friends, and I always have this happy, go-lucky and kind of crazy vibe about me. Unfortunately, back in the beginning of June (right before my 21st birthday) I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Luckily it's benign, but it does cause an immense amount of pain as it is on one of my facial nerves. I have come to terms with. However, it has become harder for me to put on that happy mask every single day and be there for everyone when I am in so much pain. Lately I find myself crying just a little more than I would like to cry. On the bright side, I have found an amazing guy who is there for me and we just got engaged! I just worry that I rely too much on him because I feel that I have to shoulder everyone else and thus he must shoulder me plus them as well. I guess I was wondering if you had any advice on how I could feel just a bit better at the end of my days. Thank you so much!
P.S. I love you and Lacuna Coil tons and I look forward to seeing you in Gainesville, FL!

 

Kiko i dont know what  say  to you .. i just read your comment   here . and i wanted to asnwer you . but i will say think about yourself be happy everyday  and keep all yours with you .. And even if im not a religion person i bless you and i hope a miracle happen in your life i will pray for all the gods of this earth you getting better .. and if you need talk with someone i will give you my email if is your wish
 

Kiko, you have all my support and good vibes, much love! Thank you all guys for the answers, I'll keep you posted on when they'll be published on the Hard drive site as well!
 

Mmmmmm I've always wanted to know if you had have some bad experience as a singer before you became famous... something that could make you desist of being a musician... I had one last year in front of 400 people!! ..... I'm still traying to get over it... ..

Love from Chile! ..

hey "C" im a paraplegic of 4yrs it's been VERY hard...i had a fiance.. but the military tore us apart..also after my ex-fiance.. i found someone on myspace and met her and dated her in tucson AZ. but she was heavily mormon and that threw an instant riff in the relationship. i did do some wrong too, but it was the preassure of her heavy faith that did us in. Im catholic/babtist not the poster child but yeah. So what am i doing wrong? i am usually ok with girls, but ever since my injury my confidance is low.

As a vocalist, have you found it important that you take some type of vocal training lessons?

Thanks for another great gig here at house of blues sunset on the 16th!

 

Do you believe that actual dreams can become reality, say for instance you run into some without knowing there name or anything about them except there scent and what they look like and several years later you know who it is, would that be just a coincedence or not ?

 

Would it impress you as a woman if a man learned Italian to better speak with you?
 

..I've got a question for you...  ........So, I've got a friend (keep in mind that she is only 15) that up until now hasn't really done anything wrong.  Now I've found out that recently she has been smoking.  I don't want her to do this to herself, but I don't know what I can do about it, and if I do anything, I don't want to hurt our friendship doing it.  

What should I do, Cristina?  Please help.    ..

hello cristina!!just one simple question:what do you think about the people who cares only for the career or make money??for me the only important thing is believe in god:he drives me every day on the right way!!greetings from my beautiful italy!!

 

Here's my question: do you play any instrument? And if so wich one? Or is there any you would like to learn. :)
 

I know that you support many causes that help people.  Have you ever done any volunteering at food banks or other food assistance programs while on tour?  We would love to have you all volunteer at our food program in New Mexico.  Kirk from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
 

Hey Cristina, I was wondering why does desent men like myself can get a break in the dating game? Its like desent men is not sufficiant any more
 

Heyy Cristina what inspired you to make music whats your story!! 
 

Hi Cristina! Very quickly: Let me just say how much enjoy your music, you're a huge inspiration musically to me!
Which ties into my question:
I currently sing in a metal band and have been doing so for about a year. However, I graduated from high school last year and am now attending a university 120 miles away. I've been coming home on weekends and during breaks to play gigs and write lyrics. However, it's becoming more and more difficult to manage studying acting and at the same time being in a band. I have considered leaving  several times. Each time couldn't bring myself to, I could only think about how much I'd miss performing and singing the songs I've put so much work into.
So I guess I'm wondering, if you had any advice for my situation. There's no way I'd ever drop out of college for this project (I know too many people who've done it and things never took off) However, I owe this group a lot and performing with them has been one of the best times of my life.

I think that's about everything I wanted to say (yup! pretty sure!)
Looking forward to seeing Lacuna Coil on tour at some point!

ok my question is .. why all the women that we are into a metal or rock band we need to probe more our potential or our talent that men that they are into metal or rock bands ?

and this is not a personal question about lacuna coil is my personal thougth ..
 

..Hy Cristina

Hope to see the band in Romania next year. Any hope?..
 

Though probably I will never know your answer, here is a question: if you would have to choose only 10 songs to make a cover, who would be those 10 songs?  
 

As a female singer in a metal band who uses the more traditional style of clean singing (i.e no screaming), what do you think of the female vocalists from bands such as Walls of Jericho or In This Moment who use harsh screaming? Are you a fan of these bands who use the more extreme vocals?

 

how you make a very good friend undestand you are in love with him??? :(

 

hii  im  nicole aka nikki . im  gothic , i like the color black and  other dark colors , i like  to  wear lace and clains , rings and  other nice  gothic suff ... 4  fun  i  like  to  write poems ,sing and dance , when i grow up i would only dream 2 be  a  rock singer ... im open  to new  things  . nice  to  be  around , i also believe in  god  people think i  dont and  say mean bad things 2 me  ... umm  ...  i love  ur music  its  soo  amazing like  ur  face your  face is out  of  this  world i  think  ur so beautiful .. i look up  2  you  ...  i  have  a  question do  u no john tempesta? because my mom was marred 2  his  bother .. and john to  a  great drum player ..  i would  like  to  keep talking  2 you  .. well  bye
 

I have been down and depressed lately, I can't seem to see the good things in life. Can you please send me some advice Cristina?

P.S I have every album by Lacuna Coil and listen to it all the time!

well, my ask, When you came to Chile?? this is my dream 'cause i love you and your band too, youre a goddess Cristina!!! good bye!! KISSES!!!

 

Hey cristina.We are trying to get signed and we are really good.What steps did you and the band have to take to get to where you all are now?Can you give us some advice please!!!!!
 

hi cristina, hope this question helps your cause. i love photography, i'm going to college for it. i'm incredibly shy and my latest assignment is to take nude pictures. I can't come up with a good way to ask a girl to pose nude for me. anyway you can point me in the right direction to ask her. thanks. edgar r


 

Hi Cristina!
I met you in Cleveland, Ohio in the House of Blues and you guys rocked!!!! It was the best experience ever, I can't explain what it's like to see my favorite band. I will never forget getting that cd signed from you guys. I think about that experience everyday. I have a question:
"I have been thinking a lot about pursuing my dreams and I was wondering how you pursued yours to be a singer-which you have the best voice ever-how can I pursue my dreams without anything getting in the way?

P.S I would like to see you guys play in Cleveland, Ohio again. I saw a lot of bands play and not one of them rocked the way you guys did.

 

Do you think a girl who lost her mother at age 5, and was raised by only her father, and uncle would have trouble relating to, and making lasting friendships with other women later in life? And, why? And, what could the woman do NOW to learn how to trust other women?

I'm having a huge struggle in my relationship.  My finacee lost his driver's license for 2 years, for 2 DUIs. (driving while drunk)   For 1 1/2 years I've driven him everywhere he needs to go. We live in a small town where we commute to work and school, and due to our schedules others are unable to help drive him somewhere very often.  If he is caught, under our state law, he will lose his license for another 3 years.  I've told him I wont support him through this period if it happens, as lately he's been driving himself here and there.  This morning I woke up to him gone, having gone to work by himself.  Public transportation is not an option here.  I am thinking of leaving him as it's hard to love a man so who is now defying all of my sacrafices.  I've worked an awful job, am currently out of work due to accomodating his schedule, and given up many things.  I understand he needs some control over his life, but right now this aspect is too risky.  Does it sound like he wants me gone?  I just don't know about that or how to stay calm anymore.  We've been together for 4 years.  If you have any outside insight into what might be going on here, I'd love to hear it.  If you don't get to this, it's still nice to have a place to vent it all.  Thank you.  By the way I enjoyed meeting you in July at your Kansas City show on the Spellbound tour. 
 

Hey Cris!! :) Im Niche..When you guys r coming to Thailand!! :) or even better.. Mexicoooooo!!....Im from Mexico but know im living 1 year here.. you should come here! u have tons of fans here! included me :)....Your music is the best! ....Greetings to everybody
!..
 

hmm, well lets see. my husband just got back from iraq. before he left hes was very loving, and understanding about things. but now, i would think since hes been gone so long, hed be just as loving, but he just has a "tough shit" attitude about everything in life now. i mean, hes VERY loyal to me, takes me out, never flirts with girls, and speaks very highly of me to his guy friends (theyve told me) and puts up with alot of crap when ive been crazy and drunk lol, and me being irresponsible. but he can make mean comments ( cus we just had a baby) about how my tummy has pudge on it (only like 8 pounds more) and how i should do sit ups, or plays video games for hours and doesnt really spend time with me. and i cant get offended from anything he says thats just rude, cus he says hes just playing around, when its still rude. but i cant get mad, or he'll just be like "oh god, now youre just butthurt" and say im the one being a bitch, and thats why he doesnt want to spend time with me, cus im "always butthurt". he used to have to ask for my time, and i would gladly give it to him, but now its me asking for his time. and anytime i ask for something like that im being a "bitch". or, im a "bitch" because i get my feelings hurt. i just have to pretend like it didnt phase me. it gets really old, and just doesnt want to understand where im coming from. and when i jsut try to explain my side, he's always just like, "you really don't realize you're crazy do you?" or will just sarcastically say "you're right alex" and wont even be listening to what im saying. sometimes it REALLY SUCKS being a woman lol. cus we cant just simply make a request without them saying we're "nagging'. ugh. do you ever have that problem, and do you have an idea of what to do?

btw, i get made fun of for how much i always liked you guysl. lol haha people would know me as that chick who likes lacuna coil alot. and you guys are just really fun to sing along to. :) oh, and you know those famous shoes strap up shoes you always wore in comalies promo pics? I HAVE THOSE SAME ONES. LOL. after i saw them years ago, i had to find some just like it.

i know you got alot of questions to answer but i hope you're at least having fun with it.

thanks. :)

Ok Cristina & Band this is going to be a bit depressing however, lately I've been looking for bits of strength in all my friends and listening to epic music such as yours to carry on. I talk to people personally about these things but never so open like this and I hope I won't regret it any as a guy spilling my guts. I'm 33 years old now, was born & raised on Long Island, NY 28 years. I have been trying for the past 6 years to build my own business with vinyl arts & signs which has been very difficult on me financially and mentally trying to pull this all together alone, what makes it harder for me down here in Florida is that a lot of people here are very religious, sometimes to the extreme, which I am not. It's held against me at times because I don't worship etc. within business & friendships and that I feel is very negative towards me which fuels my already depressing life none the less keeps me down from success. How would you cope with this?

Also, I left NY right after 9/11 because everything I was trying to accomplish at the time was ruined on that day and some co-workers were lost on that day as well. I was in partnership with a friend, we owned an industrial cleaning business, our major account was World Trade & 101 World Trade buildings. We worked 5 floors a night in both towers, made good friends with some of the cleaning crews. I was supposed to work that day...but I decided to take the day off and go see a girlfriend up in NJ. As I was driving over one of the bridges I actually saw the first plane hit which horrified me. Being on the bridge I had no choice but to keep driving, adrenalin & fear pumping & tears down my face for another 2 hours until I arrived at my destination. We had all of our equipment locked in a cage in the basement of the N. Tower on a leave at your own risk basis. We knew there was a chance things could go missing but it saved us a lot of gas commuting etc. As you could imagine we lost everything with no recovery on time to pay the bills, we lost the business. The stresses of lost friends, the business etc. was a domino effect from there for the next few months. I lost my job at one of the local hospitals due to stress which led to an argument with the wrong person at the wrong time. -- at the same time I had recently purchased a new car which I was still making payments on, then the holidays arrived along with my rent being due. I did not have enough money to continue with everything going on in my life at the time, so I folded my life and took off to Florida where I had thought I could find some salvation and cheaper living until I recovered my losses. Among all of this I was also a musician trying to make it, I was recording in the studio the 21 songs I had currently written but, was only able to somewhat complete 4 of them before 9/11 and all of this happened. I had to sell all of my equipment which was 5 Ibanez guitars and a brand new blue voodoo half stack, just to afford my trip to FL. I never was able to do anything again with music because I'm still struggling financially.

If this is not depressing enough, I somehow came down with Psoriasis during all of this which has plagued me ever since. It's progressively getting worse and even if I had the insurance, the medicines available still have great risks of causing death, most of them are taken off the market and it seems people like myself are no closer to a cure. This has effected my love and social life very badly for I find it very hard to want to get close to anyone which very much hurt a woman I so very dearly loved in this world and I find that very few people will accept my condition in ways that I can't do certain activities out in the sun because I'm forced into wearing cloths that covers my bad areas which makes it very hard to enjoy life in the Florida sun, heat etc.

I was a good man with a big heart all my life, healthy and most would say handsome etc. but with all of this ripped from my life, I've fallen into myself yet I try my best to continue and show my care and support for others around the world but, sometimes It scares people that barely know me because I've become so open to tell my stories to them, which there is a lot more too it then what I'm saying here. I must admit I've gone down as low as wanting to end it all on several occasions but in all this stress and depression is where I found myself deeper and more creative so I'm trying to use this to my best advantage somehow but I'm not sure what directions to take with it with the dwindling finances I currently have. I'm not sure what questions to ask directly besides...what would any of you do, if you were me?

Thanks for reading part of my life story, I am who I am now because of all this but I'm still a good however broken man inside trying to figure out what to do next.

Sincerely,
Byron

 

Why are men so different from women? Why don't they feel the same ways and care the same ways we do? Why don't they like to cuddle after making love?
