Plausible - although I'm wondering now, that "but" doesn't really make sense, unless the line was meant to bear a heavy load of irony. Anyway, the line keeps recurring in the track, and after a while I realize that - kind of like that website with Pavarotti supposedly singing about elephants - I can almost hear the line as "no more bananas." At this point, of course, the light goes on: and I remember that there *was* a track called "No More Bananas" on the comp (by Infinite Livez). So my joke line was the real one, and the "real" line, the sort-of joke line... On a completely other note: is West Anthony still lurking hereabouts? His piece on Kurt Cobain (at www.toneandgroove.com) is a heartbreaker - nice work there. - ------------------------------- ...Jeff J e f f r e y N o r m a n The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com/ :: crumple zones:: :: harmful or fatal if swallowed :: :: small-craft warning :: ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 01 Apr 2004 21:45:40 -0600 From: "Fortissimo" Subject: [loud-fans] impending apocalypse!
