I'm not much of a fan, but that's an admirable coup for her, and it is a fantastic song. Her voice sounded a bit askew, somewhat hit and miss, and it wasn't one of the most exciting live performances I've seen on tv, but still...quite a coup. adam k. nr: Cloud Chamber by Clare George - ----------------------------------------------- This mail sent through http://webmail.zoom.co.uk ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2006 07:27:18 -0400 From: "muttley64@ntlworld.com" Subject: Fiona Apple - London 11th April - 2 Tickets For Sale I have 2 spare tickets in the stalls to see Fiona Apple in London at the Victoria Apollo on Thuesday April 11th. Unfortunately I can't attend as I have to work. I just want what I paid so total price is #60 including special delivery. Please email me privately if you are interested, if not I'll put them on eBay.

It's an Aladdin's cave of video clips, and for an old progster like myself, it's a treat: there's old film clips of Genesis (including an entire live "Supper's Ready" with Gabriel), Pink Floyd, even a couple of Gentle Giant live clips and one VdGG. There's old ads, old videos (oh, that I got to see Golden Earring's "Twilight Zone" again! Now all I need is Martin Briley's "Salt in my Tears" and my life is, sadly, complete) and an abundance of awful stuff which indicates that the quality control is out to lunch. I mean -- happy slapping? Who the hell needs to see it? There's not much in the way of ecto content, although there's a couple of Patty Griffin clips, a couple of Kathleen Edwards and Eliza Gilkyson turns up once, doing a plug to save the Edwards Aquifer in Austin, TX. Nerina Pallot's video for "Everybody's going to war" is on there, and a wide range of Tom Waits. If you know what you're looking for it's quite fascinating, but even the unknown has beguiled me: OK Go's video for "A Thousand Ways to be Cruel", which I finally caught up with, an animated hippo singing a snatch of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"...well, if everyone's familiar with this stuff then I'm just embarassing myself. But, I'm bored at work and the list is kind of slow, so I thought, "Eh, what the heck. Share the joy". So, there you are. adam k. - ----------------------------------------------- This mail sent through http://webmail.zoom.co.uk ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V12 #87 **************************
