I'm not surprised Rochelle's impressed by the power of Crackers' Nuvogue -
I still listen to it all the time - it never fails. If I was Thomas I'd be
extremely proud of having played a part in such a work of deathless genius.
When we get the Alloy Tour on the road it'll be our encore every night....

Thanks, I'm pretty flattered that my take on Nuvogue is still enjoyed. I
just hope I don't disappoint anyone with this year's treatment of
Hot Sauce.

Subject: Re: Alloy: A funny snort

Sorry, I was just joshing really.  I don't know WHAT that sound is, but it
sure as hell SOUNDS like an elephant blowing it's nose, er, trunk, to me,
though I suppose it could be some sort of drum.  I'd really like to know
what it really is.  Anyone know?  Anyone got an even more far out suggestion?

Can Thomas be prevailed upon to tell us?

LOL indeed.  I think Crackers would agree that's probably worth a full 'HAR.'

Subject: Alloy: Ghost stories for Halloween?

I feel sorta silly asking but at the same time I think that everyone has at
least one encounter with a ghost and has a story to tell.  Halloween is
right around the corner, and we've already been talking about cemetaries,
so I figure ghost stories are in order.  I'll light the fire, grab a bag of
marshmellows and some roasting sticks if you all want to have a seat and
get scared (at least a little)...

The only one I have to tell is rather tame, but true.  When living in
Albuquerque, New Mexico I shared an apartment with a friend.  At around 3
am one morning I was awakened by the sound of someone walking around the
apartment.  I was so convinced that someone was there that I got up to make
sure the front door was locked (it was).  My roommate was fast asleep in
her room, so it wasn't her I heard.  We lived on the top floor so it
couldn't have been upstairs neighbors that I heard.   When I asked her
about it the next morning she denied being up.  After that, we would
periodically hear someone walking around the living room, or knocking on
the doors and walls.  It never did much more than that.  Our boyfriends
also heard it, so it wasn't just us.  

Who's next?

Which sound are you talking about, exactly? Which part of the song (which
lyrics is it near?)

When the elder of my two little sisters was about three or four years old, we
went with my dad to visit one of his friends who lived out in a rural area. As
we were getting back into our car after the visit, my little sister suddenly
began crying & screaming, and pointing to the woodpile which was at the edge
of the property. We asked her what was wrong & she said, "there's a man over
there & he doesn't have any skin on his face!" We assured her there wasn't
anybody there but she definitely saw something, the poor thing was in a panic,
trying to get into the car & begging my dad to drive us away. It gave us the
creeps! My father wondered (once she fell asleep on our way back) if it really
could have been something, since it was such an old property & over the years
who knows what might have happened.

I ask my little sister about it now but she doesn't remember it!
