Julia, It's very interesting that it doesn't come over at all on TV. I have been to numerous football games where the atmosphere has been electric and then seen it on TV as almost an entirely different match. About the only music event that came over in all it's glory that I can put my finger on is Live Aid (and I only mean on the day, not the ramifications of the aftermath). Don't worry, you're not spoiling anyone's fun (I think that would be a bit difficult at the moment in the euphoria of ticket buying frenzy), it's an interesting slant on the whole phenomena that is RM, but as you know, not one I share. I was more disappointed when RM reformed and released Manifesto with an entirely lame second side than I could be for a reunion with nothing more than a live album as output. Shame you can't make AMA, I think that's one "gig" you would really enjoy.

OK, now I'm completely confused by this conversation and by your previous response to me about people being "denied a chance to see Roxy live" which could in no way be extrapolated from anything I have ever written. That is, unless you somehow think opinions expressed here matter one whit in Mr. Ferry's decisions. > I am certainly not attacking peoples rights to opinions, but > looking at the bigger picture, the reunion is an absolutley marvellous > idea that can only result in a level of creativity unseen as yet. Jonathan, you basically told Julia she should leave the list, and perhaps you don't see that as an attack, but certainly a few of us saw it as uncalled for. In fact, that is what sparked this particular skein of this thread. Your dissembling after your comments yesterday and the responses it provoked (which you deliberately quoted and responded a while ago) is rather puzzling. I do understand, however, that you cannot see how people can hold opinions contrary to yours.

I would have thought that most fans affiliated to this group are over the moon to see the return of Roxy Music. My 'You off then, bye' comment referred to the nonsensical tangent that Julia had gone down, one that very few fans can surely be transversing. It certainly wasn't a call for her to leave the list, that would be ridiculous. I for one, heard and loved the hauntingly beautiful versions of the Roxy tracks on the ATGB tour. Creative and powerful are two words that spring to mind about this. I cannot wait to hear what is instore this time around. My view, that I would guess is shared by many, is that, far from being creativly barren ground, this reunion will lead to all sorts of avenues and possibilites both for Roxy Music and for Bryan himself. Roxy Music Phase 2 anyone? I'm unhappy with 'opinions contrary to my own?'. No, you have me very wrong. I'm VERY unhappy when people make no effort to see the wider picture. So there.

Some (not all) anti-hunting protestors are violent thugs, more than ready to wield baseball bats and heavy boots against anyone who disagrees with them. They are part of sub-culture which will latch on to any protest movement which comes along, join in at the fringes, and make trouble for its own sake. Do you really want physical violence directed at audience members, cans of paint thrown at performers and audience, maybe a bomb scare in the middle of the band's set to clear the hall? These are the kinds of tactics they would use if they seriously want to disrupt the tour. Arguably it's a mistake on Bryan Ferry's part to ally himself publicly with the pro-hunting lobby. But whatever we may think of the hunting debate, your gleeful message seems like a negative post too far.

Guy - -----Original Message----- David Firmin Sent: 16 February 2001 15:13 Roxy Music may be hit by anti-hunt protesters on their forthcoming reunion tour. The protesters aren't pleased with remarks made by Bryan Ferry in support of the Countryside Alliance. The singer plans to join the pressure group's 300,000 other supporters on a central London rally on March 18. His son Otis works for a Yorkshire hunt. He said: "As Otis works as an assistant whipper-in for the Middleton Hunt, I know what an important part the hunt plays in binding communities together and giving employment to local people. "Therefore, it is great to see so many people working so hard to maintain an endangered way of life." The League Against Cruel Sports and other anti-hunt organizations are thought to be planning demonstrations at gigs when the tour starts in June. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V6 #60 *************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
