The support sound interesting - Rasputuna. I'm guessing they're like Rasputina but sing songs about fish.

Excellent point! New Subway slogan (via "Idiocracy," perhaps): "Subway: Eat Fresh! (and Fuck You, Tom Clark!)" Michael "Never noticed any particularly high 'jangle' content at Subway..."

It is a one-sided disc just like the Midnight Records promo (blue label), but has the red Plane label on the playing side (both have the blue and black Thoth label on the blank side). It does not seem to be marked as a promo record, but I believe it is. When I bought it, the seller did indicate it that it is a promo. Does anyone know more about the record or if there is a German domestic release of it? Marc ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2007 17:32:08 -0600 From: 2fs Subject: Robyn covered... Okay, we're talking about songs Robyn should cover - how about songs by Robyn other people should cover? Someone had mentioned this somewhere that I read recently - but it's absolutely perfect: Morrissey should cover "Queen Elvis."

Covers were The Kinks "So Tired" and VU's "New Age".Great show and Robyns voice was in excellant shape, hitting all the high notes. I didn't write down the set list, but maybe Nuppy did. Besides the covers, Robyn playing the piano and performing "Flavour of Night" was a treat. He performed about 20 songs altogether.
