Thanks John, I thought so, I was just wondering if there was a full version from that (or any other ) show out there, as some of the REM Mt Stage stuff has "appeared" that was not on the broadcast. Why do they have to talk over it.Argh!

All this talk about Theremin has really made me hungry. Actually, Theremin has always sounded like it should be some sort of supplement--"Just take one a day, Theremin-E plus Iron." Yes, there is a point to this inanity. Did anyfeg ever see the docu-movie about Theremin? I remember that it was playing at a theatre called The Vogue when I was in Louisville, Kentucky, but I never checked it out. Some friends saw it and said it was fantastic--something I had to see. I don't know whether it's on video, but I'm trying to keep my eyes open. And while I've got my mouth (hands) running, thanks for TOWARD AN INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE. :):):):):):):):):):):) Excellent! --Andy ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 6 Jun 1996 18:43:02 -0400 (EDT) From: Eugene B Mirman Subject: Re: Yes, I want to talk to Robyn Hitchcock via IRC!

Pardon my cheerleading... I have joined many discussion lists (e.g. rem, kate bush) and have regularly been so thoroughly annoyed by the constant trail of mindless gushing and "what is your favorite song" gibberish. Reading the last digest, it occurred to me that this really is a _fabulous_ discussion list. I've already been linked up for 5 times longer than any other list and I continue to be impressed. There are so many great folks on this list dedicated to sharing great music with each other, and there is always such a constant stream of useful information. Thanks. ...of course, perhaps the list is so good because idiots like me don't post trash like this......hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ John Stevenson (608) 265-4065 UW-Survey Center stevenson@ssc.wisc.edu ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Jun 1996 13:41:51 -0400 (EDT) From: David Willems Subject: BIG Favour addendum Respondants to this post seem to have ignored some of the songs/albums on the list, but if someone's making a tape of these could they include "Invisible History" especially (excluding from previously listed songs and newly released songs): Astronomy Domine Outlaw Blues Postman's Knock Look Into Your Mirror Like A Real Smoothie Innocent Boy Calvary Cross Trilobite Cool Bug Rumble Devil's Radio Shuffling Down The Flagstones You And Oblivion (& any other new Robyn Songs!!)
