Oh MAN, that's so 80's! Ever hear Rainbow Dome Music? Fish Rising? Legendary drone. Anyone who's ever appreciated any of the Wire solo stuff or Ravi Shankar ragas would love Hillage, except perhaps the overtly hippy lyrics and the occasional crummy Beatles cover (how about Colin "doing" Blue Jay Way). Hillage got a bad rap from the punks in the late 70's. But then again, so did the Beatles, Pink Floyd and everything else that wasn't punk at the time. I'll never understand how people who are dedicated music fans can't get past anything labeled "prog rock." - -fd - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Keith Knight" To: Sent: Monday, September 02, 2002 4:36 PM Subject: Re: [idealcopy] [OT] FSOL > Ah, Steve Hillage, early Gong! > > On second thoughts you probably don't want me to start this thread... > > another the Keith > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: > > > The Isness raises the question: if you took seven years off to travel the > > world and find yourself, and you found out you were Steve Hillage, would > you > > come back? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 03 Sep 2002 01:01:35 -0400 From: Eardrumbuz@aol.com Subject: [idealcopy] two q's anyone heard celebs by roommate? anyone here, besides me, going to the irving plaza show on the 18th? - -paul c.d. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 03 Sep 2002 08:54:30 +0100 From: Ian Grant Subject: [idealcopy] Re: Brighton (will) Rock At 21:45 02/09/02 -0400, Fergus wrote: >This means Wire will come on about 10.

A twenty minute walk? Man, I must be getting old or something. I'd be very wary of that, especially if you plan to spend some time in the bar before legging it. The Concorde II is on the seafront, east of the pier and along towards the Marina...and, although Brighton's a small place, the station is still quite a distance away in the centre of town (sorry, City). Apart from anything else, it's also at the top of a considerable hill. You might want to sort out a taxi in advance. As for B&Bs, I've no particular recommendations...but it's a Thursday night in November, so I can't imagine you'll have too many problems. Somewhere like http://tourism.brighton.co.uk/accommodation/ ought to turn up something suitable.
