Hello fellow Wire fans! I hope you'll stop by my new radio site MEDUSA RADIO http://medusaradio.tripod.com/schweeeet.html. There's lots of Wire, solo and otherwise, plus hours of punk, electronic, goth, dark wave, math rock, pop and the occasional foray into the more manly arts (heavy metal).

I've heard tapes of that show - what can I say, let me put this delicately - Steve isn't always known for singing on key live - was that maybe part of the problem? - heard a tape of them doing a talk show years back and they did I think, Ever Fallen in Love on air - lordy, I'm embarrassed when I hear it - but it's so Steve I just have to giggle - when I say he's come a long way, that's part of it - the Modern tour was excellent, I loved Steve's songs and all reports I've heard of his solo shows now are glowing, well, some people might be biased, but I've heard good things - there was talk about him doing a solo tour here, but I haven't heard anything lately - of course, they're doing Europe now, so maybe it got pushed aside (maybe best for me if reports are TOO biased and my foot will be in my mouth if he does)- and I have to love his sense of humor, his "rock star" schtick he does on stage makes me laugh out loud >i think the album that really bugs me is tension ; pete writes 8 fabulous >tracks of intelligent , bittersweet pop. stevey baby then piles in with >stuff that's just crass and totally uninspired filler by comparison (i >still can't stand "you know you can't help it" , that is such a load of old >toss). >thank god for programmable cd players.p hahaha - yes, I know what you mean :-) I can't argue that, not that we're arguing mind you - you don't like what you don't like, plain and simple - and like I said, I don't necessarily love all of his music - knowing that Pete is constantly writing, and that songs put on albums are not necessarily new songs (Modern had some songs that have been around for quite a while but never released) - I can only think that filler is not an issue - and I don't see Pete as the type to put songs on there just to be nice to Steve - now I'm not saying it's a question I'd ever ask, I'm a bold wench but not that bold - and I'm thinking that somewhere it must be agreed that a certain percentage of an album has to be Steve's work - - I'm also thinking that Pete had to like the songs pretty well or they wouldn't have gotten on there - but I'd have to agree that a few of the songs on there that are not his best work Laurel ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 13:47:49 -0400 From: "Katherine Pouliot" Subject: Re: misc. digest comments - now Thin Lizzy and then I ramble not too sure I remember Firehouse, but I remember Firehose - have a CD by them that I listen to here and there, still. - ----- Original Message ----- From: Laurel G To: Sent: Friday, June 09, 2000 2:25 AM Subject: Re: misc. digest comments - now Thin Lizzy and then I ramble > >From: obie > > >If we are going to go there with this : how does everyone feel about > >Thin Lizzy? > >I mean, when all is said and done , they weren't that bad for the genre. > > > > I liked Thin Lizzy at the time, still do, although I don't own any > records/cds anymore - I can still hear their songs today and like them - the > music brings back a very nice period in my life, so maybe that has something > to do with it too - I also think the music has "aged" better than some > others - when I hear it now I don't go "oh my god, that sounds so outdated" > - must say when I saw Joe Strummer there were a few moments like that when > they played old stuff - different music altogether I know, but I did have > that reaction when they did some old stuff > > I have to admit I like Firehouse - now don't bother to point out to me that > if I have something against 80s hair metal pretty boys, then what the heck > am I talking about? - they write some really sappy stuff, and they are > SSSSOOOOO genre, but hey, a girl's got to have her weird "things" - talk > about music being outdated though *L > > Laurel *now there's MY musical skeleton > > "When I first laid eyes on you > I knew that you were trouble and just too good to be true" > > > ________________________________________________________________________ > Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com > > ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 09 Jun 2000 13:14:01 CDT From: "Laurel G" Subject: Re: misc. digest comments - now fireHOSE/House >From: "Katherine Pouliot" >not too sure I remember Firehouse, but I remember Firehose - have a CD by >them that I listen to here and there, still.

I know a friend of a friend named Laurel who lives near Boston, so I keep thinking you may have been her. You never know, right? Yeah, I am sure the Firehose CD that I have is not their most "punk" or whatever you call it, but I like it. I think it's called "If'n". I have a friend who I've known for over 20 years, and she loves the hairy heavy metal bands. She has one of those cheeseball compilation sets (cassettes no less) in her SUV for her drivin' tunes. I rank on her quite a bit, but I really can't say much. I saw a lot of heavy metal bands when I was in my teens, as my boyfriend's father was on the police force and did security for a lot of the concerts, so we got in for free. Stuff like Dokken, Black'n'Blue, and even Kiss, which I don't regret seeing (although they were not in make-up, so it doesn't count, I've heard.) So, I know that I can't stone you or anyone else for having a few heavy metal hair or otherwise 80's music faves. I've already been stoned to death for mentioning that I liked ELO back in the late 70's! hahhahaa later, Kath ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 12:07:21 -0700 (PDT) From: Creatured Subject: Re: now Thin Lizzy and then I ramble DEFINATLY Different bands.

The newsletter is incredibly large (122k), what with all the activity with Wire's May tour of the US, many reviews, interviews, etc… so we've decided to send a link instead. It's an eyeful of Wire, so be sure to visit the site: http://www.wiremailorder.com/site/june.htm BUT QUICKLY… WMO has just released Gilbertpossstenger "Manchester London" (WMO 16CD). This CD contains a recording of Bruce Gilbert with Robert Post and Susan Stenger from the Band of Susans from a Disobey performance in 1995. Best described as a "guitar summit". The album also includes a remix by Paul Smith and is licensed from Mute/Blast First. This is the LAST WMO release. In stock and shipping now. LAST RELEASE? It's been five years and eleven albums since we started Wire Mail Order. Our mission of releasing archival material from the Wire catalog is complete, and, with a reactivated Wire, we've put the lid on all further releases (the band has an agenda)... MAIL ORDER But don't worry, the MAIL ORDER will continue to operate! Having said that, be advised that some titles are in terminally short supply (less that 50 copies worldwide!) They are Lewis/Gilbert & Mills (WMO 3CD), Bruce Gilbert The Haring (WMO 5BOX), P'o (WMO 11CD) and Dome Yclept (WMO 9CD). Also, stocks of the Dugga Tshirt are low! Don't be disappointed - when they are gone - they are gone! All WMO releases may be ordered from the website www.wiremailorder.com with a credit card over our secure server. PINK FLAG There are also 2 new Wire items available from www.pinkflag.com, with the impending release of the Wire/Albini sessions also imminent. That's all for now. As always, thank you for your patronage. ------------------------------ End of idealcopy-digest V3 #178 *******************************
