The idea here is that health-care providers are COMPELLED to share their medical information with an agency (be that government or private or whatever) without the consent of the patient. Your objection above works under the assumption that someone beside the patient MUST keep those records. Personally, I think you should be able to choose a health-care provider that keeps medical records confidential or doesn't keep any records at all, if you so desire. I don't think any agency should be allowed to store personal information about private citizens. I think that your mug shot and fingerprints should be destroyed or returned to you along with any other personal information acquired during investigation after you are acquitted, your time is served, or the case is otherwise closed. I think commercial entities shouldn't store your personal information unless you have a specific pending commercial transaction and should be compelled to return to you or destroy that personal information when records are finalized. I think that any storage of personal information by a corporate entity (I mean non-individual, for those that think I'm only talking about commercial corporations... governments, political parties, etc.) must be made only with express permission of the persons involved. So, you register to vote in the upcoming election and, unless you check the box that says "please keep my info on file", you register again next election. That said, I have no qualms at all about supporting individual citizens from gathering personal information about one another.

Um...no, not "almost always." (Some easily found counterexamples from recent times: Luna, Bettie Serveert, Frank Black, the Meat Puppets, Arto Lindsay, Sinead O'Connor, J Mascis, Elastica, Supergrass, Marianne Faithfull... All of these folks changed labels with either no increased visibility or *lessened* visibility.) Anyway, there's a difference between signing with a new label and putting out a new album, and a label simply licensing one of your old albums for reissue. Have we really had it confirmed that the Soft Boys are signed to record a new album *for Matador*? >Also, there's really no reason why the Soft Boys 2001 can't >make a record that's just as interesting now as the Soft Boys >1980. Hey, I'm not saying the album can't be good. I'm just talking about how much it will be generally noticed/discussed, in comparison with a new "Robyn Hitchcock" album. Today's "Robyn Hitchcock" could put out an utterly amazing disc (hypothetically speaking, at least), but it could never cause a "buzz," simply because Hitchcock is viewed as an artist on the way down, rather than on the way up. He already had his commercial heyday, circa Globe of Frogs/Queen Elvis. He's old news, in terms of The Biz. On the other hand, re-emerging as part of "The Soft Boys" creates a refreshed entity, with that seductive "reunion of a overlooked cult band" angle. Voila..."buzz." >Another false premise!

Frank has apparently been playing one of those Teles since about 1984, according to tour-mates House of Large Sizes, who didn't cancel their DC show last night. This trend toward ripping off bands' entire touring rigs has gotta stop. I think of some twisted guy pulling out on of Thurston Moore's old guitars in this masturbatory ritual, and my stomach goes all knotty. But -- since I know we have quite a few Portland/Seattle fegsters, I wanted to urge anyone who has a chance to see House of Large Sizes on the current tour to do so. Portland on May 12th I think, LA a few days before that, wandering around dazedly for a few days right now while W.A.R. tries to re-equip the Catholics to finish as much of the tour as they can. H.O.L.S. are a little hard to describe -- kinda punky by virtue of attitude and (sometimes) tempo, with some solid but off-kilter hooks.
