I don't know the name of the show but it stars Anthony Head of Buffy The Vampire Slayer fame here in the states. Is it a new Bryan song or an old one? According to a website review of the show one of the best things about the show is the theme song by Bryan which doesn't say much about the show but does say it about our hero. Anyway please let me know the theme song's title. Thanks!

Koetting" Subject: [AVALON] Where's Monquiboy? Haven't heard anything from the 3 year old chimp in awhile- wonder what his impressions are of the Frantic album cover and if he has somehow heard any of the tracks.. Somehow I think he might understand the song "Ja Nun Hons Pris." Sounds like it's got to be a chimp song... greggie/atlanta now playing "I'll Never Fall in Love Again," - - Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 2 Mar 2002 06:20:15 +0000 From: Bahi Subject: [AVALON] weeding out the tree, starring orson welles mark shanahan wrote: >OK.

There's always Chimes at Midnight, which Welles released in '67. He takes a few Shakespeare plays and makes one movie from them. I haven't seen it yet (I've been meaning to for 14 years...) but I know it's well thought of by critics. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 2 Mar 2002 18:41:06 +1100 From: "notdixon" Subject: Re: [AVALON] Re: Irreplaceable? > Fortunately no intelligent people spend more than a few minutes a day on the internet, leaving it for the rest of the time to those twilight people, usually fat with beards, who fill up their empty lives surfing, surfing, surfing, between STAR TREK episode listings and porn sites. We on Avalon are safe from such saddoes, because fat people with beards rarely listen to Bryan Ferry (excepting, of course, the attractively fat) and have no interest in romantic sexual relations, instead fantasising about DR WHO girls in short skirts, with the bodies of twenty year olds and the minds of eight year olds - their ultimate sexual fantasies, God help them. > > Tim ...whereas the real world is actually reflected by the women in Roxy music album sleeves.............. -Doug ( chicks and javelins - oooh yeah!!!) ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V7 #78 *************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
