I think his lines were something like, "all right, man" and "let's go upstairs and listen to that new Travis album"(said to a small child). This line alone made me want to kick in the TV... I guess it was always going to be a bit poor, written as it is by irritating wanker Tony Parsons. I dislike him, although not as much as Julie Burchill does!

According to: it was originally called "poisson d'avril" and ridiculed Fr. traditionalists who insisted on continuing to start the year on April 1 rather than switching to new, vital, up-to-date January 1. I would find it easier to believe this if the "old new year" had really begun on 1st April, but in England at least it began on 25th March, Lady Day. Which is why the British tax year ends on 5th April, because it is Lady Day plus the 11 days' adjustment necessitated by the adoption of the Gregorian Calendar. (And it is also why Tolkien had endless trouble with the dates in LotR, because he was determined to arrange it so that Sauron was overthrown on Lady Day). - - Mike "give us back our eleven days" Godwin ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 02 Apr 2002 14:50:21 +0000 From: "Spring Cherry" Subject: Gorm's aghast again Shell: g"who wonders what he would feel like if he found out satan's asshole was talking about him" Ss I'd guess it would start out as a novelty, weird, grotesque and exciting all at the same time. Then the novelty would wear off. You'd still listen, hoping for a particularly fine-tunes fart, but after awhile you'd loose patience. Finially you'd just put a sock in it. This, however, would make Satan cry, and since youre a compassonte soul you'd telephone Jesus. Jesus would get on the line and promise to listen for as long as it takes. After an eternity Satan would just get plum worn out and start crying again so Jesus would invite him up to heaven for a party. Satan would get to wear white floaty gossemer stuff and feel pretty, he's even get to sing pretty. All the good angels would wear horns and feel very naughty in the very best way. They would have electric guitars and get to play them LOUD. Everyone would have a great time, including you, who would have gotten into the communion wine big time and somehow ended up doing both Jesus and Satan together, which would make them, as well as you, very happy.. Finially,you'd be deposited back here on earth with a souvenir harp. And sometimes, right before rain, you'd hear the music again and dance.

I saw a track listing and it looked pretty blah. It's about 90% alternate (live, demo, rehearsal) versions of already-released material. In my former Chalkhillian incarnation, a demo version of "Life Begins at the Hop" where Colin sneezes halfway through would have thrilled me to no end, but these days I'd rather have material I haven't heard before. I'm saving my pennies for "Fuzzy Warbles," the big demo collection which is supposedly forthcoming. >Jason, still looking forward to the Robert Schneider/Andy Partridge >collaboration According to the lovely and talented Hilarie Sidney, she and Robert are travelling to Swindon this month to record with Mr. Partridge. >I suppose it's okay to rip >off the Beatles and the Beach Boys, since everyone does it! I think Andy Partridge has based his career on ripping off everything Ray Davies has ever done, and I think Andy would agree.

I only had that one album of her early singles so I didn't recognize most of the songs (except for "Kiss Them For Me" which was her hit at the time). The show was good, but I was generally distracted because I was self-conscious about the extremely tight skirt I was wearing. >And it was 101, too, which has to be not only one of the best >live albums of the time (among the Mode's peers, anyway) but >possibly the best Depeche Mode release, period. I remember Andy's remarks being something to the effect of: "What's the point of them doing a live album? They just go on stage, turn their synthesizers on, and then they turn their synthesizers off." This is probably unfair, but given my past and present loathing for "the Mode," I can't disagree. My sister reminded me that this PoMo MTV segment is also where Andy made the immortal remark, "I'd give my right arm to be in Def Leppard!" >The thing that is so funny is the way people in the USA pronounce >of their own place names: Des Moines, Illinois, St-Louis, Virginie >Occidentale, Detroit Occasionally I have referred to Ann Arbor's grubby older brother as "Day-TWAH."

I don't remember being > too impressed, but I can think of three reasons why: It was daytime - > goths don't look good in the sunlight; It was almost ten years ago; I > was probably wasted. I've got very enduring memories of seeing Siouxsie & The Banshees in 1979 and I was mesmorised. The next time that I saw them was in about 83/84 and was the tour where Siouxsie had broken her leg and performed sitting on a stool. It never matched the excitement from 79, but was entertaining in the fact that there was a fight between Steve Severin and the venue security that got rather nasty. It wasn't what you would've expected in the Theatre Royal in Nottingham to say the least. I never thought that they would've worked very well in an outdoor scenario though. Anyone got any idea if there's likely to be any more East Coast USA dates on the upcoming tour? I'm going to be in the D.C area from the 12th to the 15th and was hoping that luck was going to be on my side for once and I'd get the chance to see Robyn in the U.S. again. My other half's happy though as Paul Kelly's playing at the Iota Cafe in Arlington so at least we'll see one gig. It show's how busy work's been of late, I've been unintenionally unsubscribed for a few months due to some of the URLs and their associated e-mail addresses I owned expiring, and I hadn't even noticed! I'm back now though! So... Eddie and woj, have either of your addresses changed in the last year? I've got some things to send. UK Fegs: I was planning to record 'Man And A Boy' on Saturday direct to the hard desk for conversion to DVD/VCD but because of the Queen Mother's death and the timings being all out of whack, it got screwed up (I've got the last 3/4 of an hour that Robyn's not in!).

Naturally this doesn't encompass >everyone, but a lot of people know at least the basic principles of >English, French, Spanish and Italian pronunciation. but then again every language has its regional variants and accents. And a lot of what accent is learned depends on who the language was learned from. Learning French from a Parisian may cause you problems in Bayonne or St Nazaire - let alone in Papeete or Yaounde. Similarly a friend of mine had a German teacher from Bern in Switzerland, which meant he spoke German which sounded odd to many Germans. And some people are very particular about their regional accents, for patriotic, parochial, or bigoted reasons (take your pick). The European city of "Bar-THH-elona", for instance. Barcelona is staunchly Catalan, so giving it the Spanish pronunciation may well put the locals' backs up (it's "Bar-SSS-elona"). Even learning 'correct' (i.e., standardised) pronunciation won't necessarily help - a flattened, generalised US accent, or RADA Engilsh will still get you looked at oddly in deepest Wagga Wagga. >But if I *know* how something is pronounced properly, it just pains me to >pronounce it in a different way.

In these >instances it would in fact be ridiculous to use the foreign language when >you're speaking German. it can be confusing looking in atlases - about 60% of atlases seem to give cities their English names, 40% give them their local names. In some cases (Bern/Berne, Lisbon/Lisboa, Naples/Napoli) there is little problem, but in others (Dublin/Baile atha Cliath, Bombay/Mumbhai, Cologne/Koln) there can be real problems - especially using the index! >> The thing that is so funny is the way people in the USA pronounce >> of their own place names: Des Moines, Illinois, St-Louis, Virginie >> Occidentale, Detroit and -- I must pause here to laugh as Maurice >> Chevalier -- Les Grands Tetons. slowly but surely there is a reclamation of 'proper pronunciation' of Maori-named NZ place names. Taupo, usually pronounced to rhyme with cow-flow, is slowly being heard as rhyming with flow-more. But even in Maori there are regional accents - place names like Rangiora and Rakiura mean the same thing for instance. But I digress.

Thanks for the trade. BTW, I like to keep track of information on recordings I have and would appreciate any further info you have on these, like what equipment was used to make the recordings? what media they have gone through (like DAT, for instance)? was there ever any digital sample rate conversion? if they were recorded in analog or ever transfeered to analog tape then what is the analog generation? whatever else. Thanks in advance for whatever you can tell me. ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V11 #103 ********************************
