 The only negative comment I have is that I can't put that image of Julie with the girl I saw in the past.  I really don't like that hairdo and even her face looks so different.  Am I missing something here?? 
I know what you mean, Arline--it's so hard to reconcile the two different "Julie's."  What I came away with, with Taran's side-by-side comparisons, is this:  when Norda first hooked up with the Moodies, Justin's main concern was whether or not she could come across on stage as a "rock star" (which obviously, she could).  But it was a concern to Justin, given Norda's intense classical music background.  What I took from these photos of Julie is that off stage, when she's just on the tour bus and traveling from venue to venue, she looks very different from her appearances onstage, where she spikes her hair and does other things to make her appearance more in line with a "rock star."  I find it fascinating to see, from Taran's photos, how completely different she probably looks in "real life."  In fact, the photos of her during the sound check really hit me as showing her as a far more serious musician than people may otherwise think if they just see photos of her from a stage performance.  I got the exact same impression of her when I was able to attend one of Justin's solo performances last June.  Julie, despite the spiked hair and all, is really an extremely talented and serious musician.
