This recording is pretty subpar compared to the one's we've been used to from Matthias.

Let me know when they make a rotary dial cell phone with a built-in 8-track tape player. I like gadgets as much the next guy, but they have to be less annoying than what they replace, not more annoying, and certainly not more hyped. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Jul 2007 12:09:20 -0400 (EDT) From: djini@voicenet.com Subject: Re: neighbors Steve Schiavo quoted: > I never asked like a neighbor like you > to run around and around like a wrecking ball > Is there some renovating you should do? > Maybe you should cut in the dark with your table saw Bam Margera lives just up the road from my family's farm outside of West Chester, PA. Yeah, that guy. Luckily, since he pretty much had to move out of the house (also in the West Chester area) just prior to this one because he had so completely pissed off the community, he seems to be keeping a pretty low profile so far. The township prophylactically passed new noise ordinance rules: http://www.zwire.com/site/index.cfm?newsid=11365353&BRD=1671&PAG=461&dept_id=17782&rfi=8 Notice how they claim it was not motivated by his moving in? Riiiight.

IF you've got any of these in their original format (or a DAT clone, in the case of *Oscar*), and wouldn't mind FLACcing 'em up and e-mailing 'em to me, OR you wouldn't mind sending me the disc(s) and/or rekkid(s) for me to extract the sounds from and send back to, THEN please let me know. - -- "Alligator Man" and "Plutonium Express", by Knox. - -- "Alright, Yeah" [German], from . - -- "Are 'Friends' Electric?", from . - -- "Blades Of Battenburg" and "House Of Dark Shadows", by Paul Roland. - -- "Creatures Of Light", from . - -- "Crumble Like Dust", from . - -- *Early Demos* (eight tracks), . - -- *Embryo Twirl* (three tracks), . - -- "I Wish I Were Doing This", from . - -- "If You Know Time", from . - -- "Let It Be Me"/"Gigolo Aunt", from . - -- "Moose Mark And The Prince Of Cones", from . - -- "No Way Out Of Time"/"She Was You", from . - -- *Obliteration Pie* (sixteen tracks), . - -- *Oscar* (eleven tracks), . - -- "Ride" [Demo Version], from . - -- "Sinister But She Was Happy" [Demo], from . - -- "Why Would Anybody Live Here?", from . - -- "Your Day Will Come" [Alternate Version], from . ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 04 Jul 2007 04:03:42 +0000 From: "Michael Sweeney" Subject: Re: New On Dime: Robyn Hitchcock and the English Band with the Magnetic Since I remain Dime-less (but -- thankfully! -- not dimeless), I would ask that any Feg with access, some disks to burn, and the goodwill towards me (I know -- a narrowing list as it progressed!) contact me towards the goal of a) ripping and mailing me a set of the sets, and b) my making a donation to Medecin sans Frontiers in _both_ our names...

I'm so often geographically out of the loop when it comes to concerts, but these guys have a connection with Victoria I think. It's on the evening of Sept. 13 which is my daughter's 19th birthday, she's also a fan. Immaculate Machine is the opening act. James, your grandma looks like quite the heroic figure on the New Zealand coat of arms. And Tom, I know you are not personally responsible for being Eleanor Roosevelt's distant cousin, but it adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the feglist.
