Kind of sickly/unhealthy yellow!!

Now, I guess I could just nab these from the archives, but there was at one point a text file with all of them-- I had it at one point, I think woj did, and on other person-- does anyone have this to hand? I would like to incorporate the demographics into the Fegmonomicon. (BTW, quail, this evening would be a good time to call; can you also email me your number, I misplaced it.) Also, does anyone have the positive vibrations discography in ascii or printed format? the version i have has html in it. it'll be easier to cut and paste if there are no tags. muchas gracias en avance. =b ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Feb 98 12:24:38 From: firstcat@lsli.com Subject: Grant Lee Buffalo Grant Lee Buffalo will release a new album, Jubilee, on June 9. The group's fourth album does not feature bass player Paul Kimble, who left the band last year. Among the guests on the 14-song effort, produced by Paul Fox (XTC) are: R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe, who provides backing vocals along with E of the Eels and Robyn Hitchcock, and Wallflowers keyboardist Rami Jaffee. The first single is "Truly, Truly" ... A new college-only promotional EP from Radiohead features four never-before-released-in-the-U.S. tracks. The College Karma EP contains the four U.K. B-sides "Polyethylene (Parts 1 & 2)," "Pearly," "A Reminder" and "Melatonin," as well as the OK Computer album versions of "Karma Police" and "Paranoid Android" ... - ------------------------------------- Jay Lyall Channel Sales Director Livermore Software Laboratories, Intl. 2825 Wilcrest, Suite 160 Houston, Texas 77042-3358 1-713-974-3274 jay@lsli.com Date: 2/20/98 - ------------------------------------- Two-Hour Luxury Goods Commercial Also A Spy Film ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Feb 98 13:33:22 From: firstcat@lsli.com Subject: SXSW Schedule So the schedule shows RH on at midnight after a speical guest sandwiched between Him and Deni....any guesses as to who that might be....my long shot bucks are on an REM component.... - ------------------------------------- Jay Lyall Channel Sales Director Livermore Software Laboratories, Intl. 2825 Wilcrest, Suite 160 Houston, Texas 77042-3358 1-713-974-3274 jay@lsli.com Date: 2/20/98 - ------------------------------------- Two-Hour Luxury Goods Commercial Also A Spy Film ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Feb 1998 16:53:35 -0500 (EST) From: lj lindhurst Subject: I'm feelin supah-sonic, give me gin and tonic My new band obsession is OASIS. Feel free to make fun of me, ya punters! (that IS a good word, Quail) I can't stop listening to _Definitely Maybe_-- It truly is a fine piece of rock&roll, I don't care what anyone says. I have had that album, _Be Here Now_, and the Verve's _Urban Hymns_ loaded into my CD player on "all discs/repeat" for a good week now. I'm starting to work the Neutral Milk Hotel into the lineup, too (has anyone ever heard of THEM????). And I'm not sick of ANY of it yet. The neighbors really must hate me-- first the funny smells and hysterical screaming, now the incessant wussy British music. Next I'll get a taste for the Grateful Dead and things will really go to SHITE. My question is, has anyone seen Oasis live? Is it worth it? It's one of those unsatisfying "stadium rock" experiences, right? (I know they were opening for U2) I definitely will have to see them in person, especially if I am going to carry out my plan of having Liam Gallagher's love child. okay, enough from me... l "Hey look, I only cursed once!" j ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Feb 1998 17:00:27 -0500 (EST) From: lj lindhurst Subject: FWD: Subliminally Seduce Women Instantly!

As the songs rolled on, she started playing a Gram Parsons number called Sin City. I finally chirped in and said "I know that from somewhere". Needless to utter here amongst such fine fiends, but Robyn covered said song back in 1995 at McCabe's (my own copy courtesy of Unhatched Crablings Vol II). Anyway, I played this for her and we both were wondering who Robyn was duetting with. Anyone know? While on the subject of my wife (and mandolin playing), I'll chirp in to say she's a fan of Iris Dement, at least her first two albums (my wife hated the last one...something about it being overtly liberal and way over-produced). The point of all this is just that Iris has a natural Appalachian-style bluegrass voice. Seen as set firmly in its genre, it ceased to seem odd or "bad" or whatever. Anyway, "Mystery To Me" is one damn fine song. Anyone like Freakwater ('cause my wife sure does)?

Anyone know? Actually, there was an error on "Crablings II". The actual date of "Sin City" was McCabe's 5.5.91 (2nd set) and the accompanist was none other than Andy Metcalfe. /hal ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Feb 98 17:40:17 -0800 From: Tom Clark Subject: Re: Grievous Angels On 2/19/98 12:21 PM, Runion-1, Michael wrote: >While on the subject of my wife (and mandolin playing), I'll chirp in to >say she's a fan of Iris Dement, at least her first two albums (my wife >hated the last one...something about it being overtly liberal and way >over-produced).

Apparently the "subliminal mmind techiniques" are very obvious and easily detectable by most people, male or female, and generally are a total scam. Big surprise there. Love on ya, Susan P.S. Once I was at a friend's house, and she had answered an ad about "how to attract artsy babes" (let's leave the qquestion of why aside for the nonce :)), and the packet was absolutely hysterical. Basically it was a list of books to leave lying arounnd your house. No advice as to what to do if said artsy babe asked you about something you hadn't actually read :). ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V7 #67 ******************************
