Absolutely! Penny's review was extremely uplifting. I loved the candid behind the scenes look at what really happens in the ladies room, and her insight as to when the band hasn't enough time for a cup of tea - smart girl, that one. A budding artist, too! Penny's drawing is the spitting image of Bryan Ferry - excellent! J O'B - save your pounds for I think you've got a growing fan at home who will, no doubt, want to go with you to future gigs! A fine young lady with great musical taste, indeed. Best wishes to all.

This first episode is entriely pre-1977: Gene Vincent and Elvis Presley are cited as the originals, before we move on to some fantastic footage of Iggy And The Stooges and the MC5. Meanwhile, the forebears of punk's peacock strut, namely David Bowie and Roxy Music, are cited by Lydon as the ones who really mattered: " Bryan Ferry's depravity introduced an attractive decadence to life; St Moritz cigarettes and cheap wine." _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 4 Jun 2002 11:04:12 EDT From: JaniceJanroxy@AOL.COM Subject: [AVALON] EDINBURGH Hi Everyone I don't post very often but after reading everyone else's reviews about Saturday night I thought I would add mine. I've only seen Roxy in the past and to be honest I didn't think Bryan would be very good on his own, I couldn't have been more wrong! The atmosphere was brilliant inside the Gardens, Bryan was in top form and looked as if he was really enjoying himself. My 16 year old son came with me and though he wouldn't admit it to anyone else he really had a great time, so much that he is coming to Glasgow in October. That will be his 4th time and my 5th. I hope I will be able to meet some of you then as we have seats in the front row. Anyway I'll go now, still dreaming and waiting for the Radio 2 broadcast tonight, Janice. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jun 2002 11:19:35 -0400 From: "Grant Goggans" Subject: [AVALON] 'Havalonians in 'Hatlanta Hey everyone! Maggie and I were thinking about how it's been so long since some of us poor, deprived, no-gigs-for-5000-miles Southerners had gotten together to swap stories and CDs, so we're extending an invitation for anyone who's interested -- both out-of-towners as well as the other city folk we missed at last July's pre-gig -- to join us for dinner on Saturday, June 29th, by which time we imagine the current crippling heat wave might have eased a bit. So if you'd like to join us here in Atlanta for some fun and cameraderie, make plans to meet that evening at 6 pm in Buckhead, at the Rio Bravo on Roswell Road near the intersection of Roswell and Peachtree, and RSVP with me (offlist) beforehand so I can give the restaurant a head count, and so I'll know how many "pre-release" copies of a forthcoming B+P offering to make for people. As ever, I will be pleased to provide directions not just to the restaurant, but to all the good record shops in the region, and provide advance notice of any good live shows worth checking out that weekend. - --Grant _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 4 Jun 2002 18:24:14 +0200 From: "Jimbo" Subject: [AVALON] concert Hello, Can anone tell me when the bryan ferry concert on bbc 2 is starting? jim. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jun 2002 16:31:55 +0000 From: "Tracy Connell" Subject: Re: [AVALON] concert Hi Jim, BBC Radio 2 at 7pm according to my radio listings, Tracy >From: "Jimbo" >To: >Subject: [AVALON] concert >Date: Tue, 4 Jun 2002 18:24:14 +0200 > >Hello, >Can anone tell me when the bryan ferry concert on bbc 2 is starting? > >jim. > > >___________________________________________________________________________ >The subliminable footer says: >To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: >unsubscribe avalon > visit my website: http://www.jamesmason.ic24.net _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jun 2002 11:49:02 -0500 From: Karen Swenson Subject: Re: [AVALON] concert And has any Mac user been able to get the BBC2 Realplayer stream since they changed things a couple weeks ago?

Like the drawing too. I always get Bryan Ferry drawings on special occasions from my children. Thanks for the other reviews too, had to laugh out loud when I read the reecy shoe story. brilliant. BTW listened to the J Ross interview yesterday through the bbc website. Very amusing and good to hear Bryan a bit more relaxed. Not too much dept but at least they talk about music instead of Jerry Hall. talking about Jerry saw her yesterday in a talkshow? on bbc 2. She lost a bit of that funny accent. No legwrestling unfortunately but she still look very glamorous.

These tracks are just edgy enough to have that Roxy feel to them. And I think these tracks are so good artistically that a new Roxy Music album is not out of the question.
