I thought I'd posted this already, but apparently it didn't get through... Earlier this week I spent three days on a train through Canada, from Toronto to Vancouver, with the Cowboy Junkies and four other groups including Over the Rhine. (The other three--Fred Eaglesmith, Skydiggers, and Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, are more "roots" than standard ecto fare.) The trip got written up in the *Edmonton Journal*: http://www.canada.com/edmontonjournal/news/story.html?id=e364776b-b6e5-4416-b03b-1978b0eb2220&p=1 Jason, the fellow on the trip mentioned in the article, was blogging as we went along, so photos and a bit of a writeup are already up on the web: http://web.mac.com/cowboyjunkie/iWeb/Junk%20Tour/Blog/B6D831ED-7195-4D3F-945F-AAC02E9A016C.html The links at the top of the page point to more photos and even some video clips. The "Reflecting" video is inverted--it was taken as a reflection in the train window, in order to see Pete, who wasn't otherwise visible from the audience. They had to put him in a closet because otherwise there wasn't enough room for the drum kit! Cheers!

We all know ecto has been going on continuously since 1991. Love-Hounds has been going on continuously since 1985. I'd argue that ecto has been more productive than LH simply because it's never been derailed and gutted by flame wars. Still, it's never died and been revived. 1st question: How many other music mailing lists have been going on continuously since they started. I'm asking about lists that are as old or older than ecto. Any artist will do. 2nd question: How many *ectophilic* music mailing lists are still going on? I'm talking about the ones that were either born from ecto (I'm thinking fte, jewel's mailing list...wait 3rd question: Which ectophilic music mailing lists *were* born from or inspired by ecto? So the 2nd question has 2 parts: first, which ectophilic music mailing lists born from or inspired by ecto are still going on, and second, which other ectophilic music mailing lists (not born from but perhaps or perhaps not inspired a bit by ecto) are still going on? I'm not going to defect or anything, I'm just curious about ecto's place in the music mailing list in general scene, and ecto's place in the ectophilic music mailing list scene (especially regarding longevity in both cases). There won't be a quiz, I promise. I've been reading through old archives and, man, I love you people. Thank you for carrying on for all these years. This list does Happy proud in more ways than people could imagine. Vickie - -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Music, all I hear is music, guaranteed to please...

(and new Happy pic) I posted a while back about Kate's page being deleted. Well, someone, not the same people as before (not me either), re-created the page almost exactly (though they're afraid to put music up, and who can blame them?): http://www.myspace.com/katebush2 Here's a page for "Cathy's" songs: http://www.myspace.com/cathysongs Here's a page of songs written by "Cathy" (with Happy's "And Dream of Sheep" Whoo!) http://www.myspace.com/cathybsongs I don't know how long they'll last. We'll see. Check out the new (temporary) picture I put up for Happy. It was on the cover of an Albany Metroland (local freebie) from 1993. Isn't that the cutest picture you've ever seen? God I wish I had the original! The full page is in the pics section right under Happy's picture. I'm scanning in a bunch of things just to get them out of my Box'o'Happy and online.
