hello:

well, since i got my rant out into the open, please allow me to also welcome 
sharon to the list.  so, are you a near-appalachian listmember?  we've been 
wanting to do a driving tour of virginia and west virginia (etc.) for the 
longest time ... i understand it's quite beautiful there.  and, the land of 
thomas jefferson ... one of my heros.

so, martin (or anyone else) -- any other observations on bryan's meltdown 
performance, other than what has already been said?  i dug bahi's report, 
but it would be nice to still hear from any other attendees from that 
evening.  that is, since the rest of us are still quite jealous ... well, at 
least i'll speak for all americans.  oops ...

also, any more skinny on the whole roxy 'reunion' ... any fact-based rumor 
at least as to who is supposed to be for it or against it?  bryan doesn't 
even feign interest?!

lastly, i just wanted to say that i think the cd tree idea is great and i'd 
be happy to do whatever i could to support it.  that is, assuming it's going 
to be reasonably simple.  unfortunately, i've nothing i can offer sonically, 
but would be happy to help in other ways, if i could ... at least as a 
consumer, anyway.

Subject: Re: [AVALON] music article

As far as I can make out from your article, which I enjoyed, pop records are
made by camp, perhaps clumsy, outsiders, who are
nevertheless deeply sexy. ( Even if asexual, it's in a sexy way.)
Pop followers, on the other hand, are saddoes who sit at home and have
presumably never been laid, or were laid once and were no good at it.  They
are social, but only if  geeky internet lists can be thought of as social,
which I don't think they can really. If you can't see
a face, or at least hear a voice, ninety-five percent of the subtlety
of communication goes out the window. But of course your pop
fan would blush and look at his shoes if he were actually to socialise
with anyone in the flesh or down the blower.

Of course, communication of ideas through the written word is a
noble and superb tradition, but it is superb usually only when it comes
from long, deep thought. If I were to write an article for publication -
which I've done - I would mull over it for days, or possibly weeks. A
novel can take years. Most of us, if we're honest, send e-mails on
the spur of the moment. I am not, while I type now, thinking very deeply -
I'm doing the equivalent of scribbling some thoughts.

So, Heather, your pop fan is more comfortable with the crassest -if a
technologically intriguing - form of 'communication' around. You
may be right, but it's scary.

And, ironically, your pop fan who detests 'corporate' pop 'discusses'
his 'alternative' obsessions through the medium of the richest
corporations in the world!

This is why, much as I enjoy Avalon, I don't on balance think the
computer and particularly the web and the internet, are a particular boon to
the human race. We don't need MORE communication - we need better
communication, and this ain't it.

Phew, That was exhausting!

Excellent point, and it makes me wonder. For all of the
ostensible discussions, fireworks, love affairs and allegiances
that spring up on this (or any) list, how well do we really
*know* each other? Are our words written in an effort to bond
with any particular individual or individuals in our "community"
or just to add our names (and egos) to the voluminous collection
of quips, jokes, and sarcastic cleverness that makes up late
20th-century cyberculture? Speaking for myself, I'm really not
sure that I can answer this question without indicting myself.

And then there are those moments when the whole thing just seems
to make sense. I've had them too, like meeting Mark Shanahan and
Kim Shell, and Dawndalian, three people whom I would say I have
bonded with on an authentic human level. And this list does
affect my emotions. It has made and/or ruined my day. Even
though I haven't met the majority of you, you guys are
definitely "under my skin." (wow, it itches, he he)

I'm no good at existensial philosophical ponderings so I can't address
those weighty issues.  I just signed up because someone once told me that
the Avalon list was a good place to pick up guys.

Subject: [AVALON] Re: Roxy Music Story

Haven't been on the internet for a few days but rather thought some UK
Avalonians would have commented by now on BBC Radio's "Roxy Music Story"
broadcast on saturday.  I haven't sat down and tried to compare the output
to what was contained in the earlier "Bryan Ferry Story" but I am guessing
the content was new.  Nothing startling in there but some good humoured
memories of the band even during the break ups.
Interestingly the thing ended with reference to the September release of
Bryan's new album and the rumours that persist about a Roxy reunion, citing
a possible collaboration in 2000.  If this was sourced in the same way as
the information on the new album I guess the whole issue is open again??
And less than a fortnight after RFH goers were told it would never happen!
Views??
Richard

Hello Martin -

I'm a big fan of this CD so I'll gladly plug it one more time.  I think the
CDs are available separately but there is a double CD which is fairly widely
available.  This comprises an audio CD and a video CD of the same live
performances.  These are are taken from the German TV show 'Musikladen' from
around 1972 - early 1975.  All the tracks are live apart from the first one
and, in my opinion, show Roxy at their very best live - the standard of
musicianship is excellent and, I would say, far better than the group's
later performances.  Andy, Eddie and Bryan (on harmonica) shine in
particular and Bryan's vocals are superb.
The track listing is :
A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall
If It Takes All Night
Out Of The Blue
Psalm
Street Life
Virginia Plain
The video CD plays really well on my PC - very smooth indeed.
Into the bargain it's pretty cheap too - buy it, you'll love it!!
Richard

I love the internet, particularly  news groups and especially mail list like
Avalon. Too bad it came along so late for some of us.....well, me anyway.
(I`m 41).
Before when I felt sociable, I had to take a bath, shave, put on a tie,
clean the house and make sure there was enough junk food and liquor for
everyone. Or if it was happening somewhere else, then add gassing up the
car, driving to someone's uncomfortable home, or some smelly bar and prey to
God the interesting people to mutant ratio was going to be in my favor.
In the 6 years I`ve been on the Internet, I`ve yet to meet anyone I`ve met
on the Internet face to face and some are very close to where I live. Hell,
Davd Mock is only 2.5 hours away.
It`s not that I want to avoid personal contact, but the Internet has also
made me lazy. If I feel sociable now, all I have to do is log on and in an
instant I`m surrounded by the people I like and I don`t even have to brush
my teeth. As for the mutants, well, that`s what the kill-file filter is for,
isn`t it?<G>

  This is pretty cool. I was going to upload a picture myself, unfortunately
my last hard drive crash was a killer, and I didn't have a damn thing backed
up. Had a bunch of cool stuff from my USB cam (one of those video telephone
jobbies). Being the USB model it had a great frame rate. Had some  good
still shot software with it. My computer is in this like closet/cove like
tiny room and at afterbar parties I would have it set for snapping pictures.
People would just duck in and with the click of a mouse they would snap
pictures like crazy. Some pretty interesting I might add. I haven't got it
all working yet but soon. It's really a shame because I lost all the
pictures of the old me. I just got my hair cut really short (it used to be a
real long ponytail) and the difference is a shocker. but that's gone now
just like my long hair.
