The report cited John's frustration with record company hassles as the deciding factor to abandon further recording? Maybe, Sir John is the 'solo' act signed to David Bowie's new venture. (Reread that with a little skepticism, please.) Or could it be ... These fundraising concerts that are to fill a coffer with the money necessary to fight the unjust giant record companies sounds like a spiffy idea. - But you can bet, given the state of US legislative practices, the only ones who are going to greatly benefit financially from this action are the PAC lawyers. Of course, the publicity that will be given to the artists who perform in the concert series should be of some monetary benefit to them (and their record company). However, I'm at loss to understand what mechanism is in place, or will be in place, to achieve recording artists' goal of more control over their work and how it is presented to the masses. It is one thing to want to 'build the tower of Babylon' and quite another thing to actually 'build the tower of Babylon'. I wonder who is 'spearheading' this movement to raise money for battle against the record companies. SFX? Ya, ya, still the hair flies! ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2001 10:21:21 -0800 From: neeek@wgn.net Subject: Re: [AVALON] Row, row, row your boat ...

And which all KB did was to reply in her usual whimsical fashion, which, after being here, what, a month?, might not be apparant to you. Which is also to say that based on your rather uneven introduction to the list I daresay that many of us are giving you the benefit of the doubt. It'd be nice if you could extent that back to this community instead of assuming you already know all of the 7+ years of ins and outs which undergird Avalon.

It's true that I'm new here, but I am a Roxy Music fan and have been since they issued their first record. As for giving back to the community, that's all I've tried to do.

I don't know what else most of the members here have offered, but if the kindness and quality of almost everyone I've encountered is any example, this is a very wonderful venue for the music that found a way to touch whatever it was in us that it touched as well as a super place to share ideas and the music itself. I don't know any of the undergirdments of Avalon -- but I know that if people don't take it upon themselves to attack others for forgetting to remove a "sublimable" footer or two, or for asking if the opening motorcycle revs in "Love is the Drug" were ever "live" when the original question was about bicycles instead of motorcycles there might be less friction.

Believe me, neeek, when someone on Avalon wishes to insult you, whether it's KB or someone else, you'll know it.

It is a wonderful venue. But the worth of the members of Avalon is not vested solely in what shows they offer for trade (although trading is a valuable part of this community). You could offer to make every one here copies of every boot in existance, and a those that are only rumored to exist like Excalibur itself, but that wouldn't mean that you could ride into town and start gunslinging at long-time residents without a few of us taking notice. > I don't know any of the undergirdments of Avalon -- but I know that if > people don't take it upon themselves to attack others for forgetting > to remove a "sublimable" footer or two, or for asking if the opening > motorcycle revs in "Love is the Drug" were ever "live" when the > original question was about bicycles instead of motorcycles there > might be less friction. I share the irritation of others with respect those who are unable to master a simple email program and to trim their replies with respect to footers and extraneous material. It's basic netiquette and it's not rocket science. Laziness is more like it. Try to page through a digest or two and see how annoying it is when people can't be bothered to take a few seconds to trim replies. It's a long standing irritation shared by others on the list and it pops up from time to time. If you took it personally you probably shouldn't have for you were probably merely the catalyst and not the object. With respect to the motorcycle v. bicycle issue, let me just tell you this: there was more than just one person a bit annoyed by your snippy "thread drift" response to what was meant to be a helpful attempt at gently assisting a possibly slightly confused listmember. Frankly Nick, before you arrived there was a particularly unpleasant incident involving name-calling and the like. Your calling KB a "bitch" ws completely uncalled for. Please don't lead the list back down that path.
