Madonna has also started to get her .com back recently, which may be more tricky because of the fact that her name is not unique. (Remember Jesus' mom?) As an aside, Sting didn't succeed, because his name is a generally used term in English. My understanding is that a name needs to be unique before it is granted to its rightful owner. In the case of Happy Rhodes, this needn't be a problem... :) Kind regards, Marcel Rijs afd.

It may be sadder for them because it just happened, but it really is a hartwarming film..and it's on video. (It stars Frankie Muniz, the kid from Malcom in the Middle, as well as Luke Wilson and Kevin Bacon.) Maybe after some time has passed, it would be nice to watch together. As for music...I'll have to think about that. How about Snoopy's Theme from the Peanuts cartoons by Vince Guaraldi. Wynton and Ellis Marsalis has a release of Peanuts songs tht's great...and either 'Snoopy and Woodstock' would work, or so would "Joe Cool's Blues (Snoopy's Return). There is a great song on the first album from E (titled A Man called E) called You'll be the Scarecrow..which talks about how much the narrator is going to miss this person...but it could also work for a dog. That is a gorgeous song. I'll have to think about about others. When my family cat died a few years ago, whose name was Monty, at his mini-funeral. (No we didn't bury him in a pet cemetary..just the back yard) I played the REM song Monty Got A Raw Deal (with only a little irony). Which doesn't help you much, but thinking of pet memorials reminded me of that. Anyhow, I'll think and try to come up with others.

Damn, it kills me that we're not going to get this album for a long time. I adore the _Redshift_ ep and highly recommend ectophiles' check them out. They have mp3 files available at http://splashdown.drawbridge.com and mp3.com. - --Neile n.p. Ninetynine, _180o_ To: Our Listeners From: Splashdown August 1, 2000 Dear Everyone, First, we'd like to say a gargantuan "thank you" to everyone who has written to us. We do eventually read it all, and although it isn't possible for us to reply to every letter, we love hearing from you. Simply put: you inspire us. Many of our listeners have been asking us two questions lately: "When is the Blueshift album coming out?" and "Will Splashdown tour in my neck of the woods soon?" The very unpleasant truth is that "Blueshift" is not going to be released. Signing a major-label contract with Java/Capitol Records has turned out to be a severe career derailment for our little group. We won't go into the details of the nightmare here. Splashdown survives, but the "Blueshift" album is a casualty of serious problems at the label. As you can imagine, this has not been easy for us to accept. In fact, it's been 100% drive-you-insane-tear-out-your-hair frustration, all day, every day, month after month, year after year. We've been waiting (just like you) for the album's release since the start of 1999, when it was completed. Since then, the label has given us nothing but false starts, broken promises, and crushing disappointment. Just as we were starting to see exciting results from our touring and from mad radio play at stations like WBER and WOXY, the situation at the label, always somewhat dodgy, became completely intolerable. Java/Capitol is no place for us to be. We're currently doing everything we can to disentangle ourselves from this mess and get free of the label. All we want is to communicate with you via new Splashdown music, and we are fighting to make it happen -- fighting to resist being "crushed by the wheels of industry." As things develop, we'll keep you posted through the Splashdown website. We hope to bring you new sound, one way or another, within the upcoming year. As for touring, there is nothing we'd rather be doing now, period. But Splashdown can't hit the road without tour support from the label, no matter how low-budget we travel. As with everything else at the label, the tour support that enabled us to play at Lilith Fair and to visit places like Toronto and Los Angeles has withered and died. It's a damn shame too, because the current stage incarnation of the band is the hottest we've ever had -- but don't worry, we're keeping the engine warm while we're "temporarily garaged!" The bottom line: we're going through some dark days now, but only to reach the bright days to come. And they will be bright days indeed. Stick around. One last thing. Some bands think Napster is Jesus. Some bands think Napster is Satan. We have a straightforward position regarding Napster, Gnutella, and the other music-trading software out there: If a band officially states that its music can be traded on Napster, then by all means download their tunes until your mouse-click finger is bleeding. If a band officially states that its music is not to be traded on Napster, then don't put their music on Napster, ever. Simple, no? Every band has a website these days, so anybody interested can check the band's official position before trading that band's songs. The decision whether to make copyrighted music available on the Internet should belong to the band that made the music, not anyone else. End of story. We ask you to please DO NOT post Splashdown's officially released recordings to the Internet. This includes our albums, EP's, soundtrack songs -- you know the drill. That's our decision, and we have our reasons which we shouldn't have to explain to anyone. Live recordings made by fans are a different matter. The trading of such "bootleg" recordings is a long-standing tradition, and we don't mind this as long as it isn't being done for money. We'll see you in the future! Your friends, Splashdown - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Neile Graham ...... http://www.sff.net/people/neile ....... neile@sff.net Les Semaines: A Weekly Journal . http://www.sff.net/people/neile/semaines The Ectophiles' Guide to Good Music ....... http://www.smoe.org/ectoguide ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2000 12:56:58 -0700 From: phil@tiaranetworks.com Subject: RE: Need Help...Dog Songs I'm not sure that a mix reminding me of my recently-deceased companion is something I would personally benefit from, but some people bounce back quicker than others :) If you really do want to put your immediate family into intensive therapy for a years to come, try " I'm Looking over My Dead Dog Rover ( that I overlooked before)". You'll find it on one of the Dr. Demento compilations, sung to the tune of "fourleaf clover" with the addition of power mower sound effects. You can pretty much figure out how the song goes from this brief description.
