NOW as for the new CD "Five Stories," there have been a lot of exciting things going on, foremost among which is that as we speak some mysterious machines somewhere are churning out terrifying numbers of copies which i will very soon have available EXCLUSIVELY on krisdelmhorst.com for your perusal & listening pleasure!! how soon, you ask? it's always dangerous to make plans based around those machines which are prone to flightiness, but i feel pretty sure that sometime during the week of august 13th you will be able to surf on over and grab the goods. then you will be extremely cutting-edge as i will not be playing CD release shows until late october (the 20th at the somerville theater is the big one!) and the album will not be in stores til after that. it seems some of you are really itching to know what songs ended up on the record so here ya go: 1 .cluck old hen 2. damn love song 3. broken white line 4. little wings 5. words fail you 6. just what i meant (has never been played live) 7. yellow brick road 8. garden rose 9. mean old wind 10. honeyed out 11. gave it away (has hardly ever been played live!) 12. lullaby #101 i'm so thrilled with how it has come out and i can't wait to share it with all of you. besides these matters, the summer recess continues here at big bean music, but we're looking forward to a most excellent fall full of tours, CD release shows here & there, new & old band line-ups, a revamped website, and a new relationship with the fabulous women of Bulletproof Booking which i expect will finally get me to some of those uncharted regions out there (you know who you are!) hope everyone's summer has been & continues to be a magnificent time. *kris ---------------------------------------------------------------- i've got 2 cd's available by mail, a full album 'appetite' from 1998 for $15 and 'oddlot', a 2000 ep for $8. send a check to big bean music po box 440283, west somerville, mass, 02144. you can also buy them from my website at www.krisdelmhorst.com. ideas on clubs/schools/coffeehouses near you that might be good places to play? radio stations that might be interested in playing me? etcetera? this kind of info is always awesome; feel free to email me at krisdelm@aol.com if you have notions. thanks y'all --- www.krisdelmhorst.com ------------------------------------- to remove yourself from this list, send a letter to: Majordomo@swiftmail.com. in the body of the message, write: unsubscribe krisgigs or to get back on the list, write: subscribe krisgigs to talk to a real person instead, write to: owner-krisgigs@swiftmail.com
