Just curious for the fortunate ones, how many tries and how long did it take to finally meet up with Shelby? She was nice enough to respond to my email recently that was dated back in Dec 2014 even though I had sent much more email, TER, and P411 pm(s) when she announced her tours since then. She (or maybe her booker) explained that it was always going into the Spam folder all these times. I'd figure it would've been a reply to the most recent email on her current tour not the one in December 2014.

So, I tried a few correspondences after she sent me the apology. Granted one day I was aiming for luck if she had same day availability and of course it didn't turn out. Another though was when she emailed me about available times and I responded back in less than 5 mins--only to hear back from her 45 mins later that she is no longer available. Wow! That's fast and in high demand..albeit 45 mins later after I answered her available times she sent me. She apologized again and stated "...but hopefully we will be able to connect on a future tour."  

The only thing was that I asked about the following couple of days availability since her tour dates do not end till 2 days later. Unless she's already booked for those dates too!  That's all she need to say rather than silence...again...didn't hear a peep from the rest of the day about it. The email replies were all at noontime but she did read my P411 msg since one can see when a 'sent message' was read but still no response. Bummer!

Am I being a hopeful sucker? Is it worth the wait for all the inquiries and planning? Just need some insight from the lucky ones who saw her if it's something you experienced before as well.
