Advance tix from TicketMaster and TicketWeb. http://www.ticketmaster.ca/ http://www.ticketweb.com/ Sarah News: There are many new articles up on the website, go checkem out! http://www.sarahslean.com/ssxrev.htm - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------------------------------------------------- I will probably try to make the January 30th show but the 19th is at the end of my reading week, so it's unlikely I'll be at Lee's. Although Moxy Fruvous sounds tempting... What's www.ticketweb.com anyway? Is that another attempt by Ticketmaster to distance themselves from themselves? - - Julian [ Julian C.

The series (six films) was entitled "Inspired By Bach" and actually was a whole exploration of Bach's work for cello, and it won a bunch of awards including two Emmys. >Did he do anything from the Goldberg variations, Julian? Unfortunately he did not, but he did Bach's Suite No. 1 in G maj. The concert was actually him and this young violinist named James Ehnes, who was very talented as well. I'm told that Ehnes' signature piece is the Paganini Caprice #24, which he played (and I adore it :) ) >Wouldn't be surprised if Sarah saw it.

Sarah Harmer is >also quite good as Mr. SteveIto will attest. :-) I will indeed attest. I've been waiting 4 years to see Sarah Harmer again play a solo acoustic show. She's amazing, and her solo stuff is very different than the Weeping Tile stuff. At least it was, 4 years ago! I can hardly wait... By the way, I was saying to Heather that after this tour Sarah will have played with two of the "Scrappy Bitches", the first being Kinnie Starr and now Oh Susanna (aka Suzie Ungerleider). Can a show with the third scrappy bitch, the amazing Veda Hille (the l'il Volcano) be far behind? >> I don't have the date, sorry.

The new tour dates are now online... http://www.sarahslean.com/ Also, GREAT NEWS! As some of you may know, Sarah and Heather have authorized me to put up a song from the upcoming album onto the website. "Twin Moon" will be up on the site and ready for download either today or tomorrow. If you have an MP3 player, you'll be able to download a *CD-quality* track, in its entirety! Otherwise you're stuck with a lousy quality RealAudio file. Get an MP3 player now, you won't regret it! Try WinAmp, it's a great one (for those of you with Win95/98): http://www.winamp.com Or MacAmp, if you have a mac... http://www.macamp.com Steve ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 18 Jan 1999 13:12:06 PST From: "Tab Siddiqui" Subject: Re: Sarah at Jane Bond Steve wrote: >I will indeed attest.

At least it was, 4 Yes, very folky and totally stripped-down. I heard a wonderful solo set of hers on CBC Radio's "Heartland" last month that sounded so good. Now I'm excited to see her live! I've seen Weeping Tile before, and always thought that she basically carried the group, so I bet she's great on her own. >As some of you may know, Sarah and Heather have authorized me to put >up a song from the upcoming album onto the website.

Veda used to come to Guelph all the time,... ...but hasn't for several years... maybe we could tempt her back :-) She has a really, really cool track on Lit from Within (Nettwerk), um,... ...ok I forget, but its really cool, sorta spoken-wordish. > The new tour dates are now online...

If you have an Twin Moon is one of my favourites of Sarah's, probably in the top five any how... ...I'm very happy its on the album. > Get an MP3 player now, you won't regret it! If you don't hate MicroSoft, IE5 Beta (but a stable beta) uses an updated Windows Media Player to autoplay. Its not as cool as WinAmp though. I was disappointed not to find Sarah (or Emm) Skins for WinAmp (for the uninitiated the "skins" are the panel covers, WA allows you to use different and random faceplates.)

So you guys can get a sneak preview of the sneak preview. :-) Plus you can be my guinea pigs. It looks like the RealAudio clip might not be playable using the RealPlayer v5.0, you may need RealPlayer G2 in order to play it. Anyway let me know how you fare.

I don't think there's anything I can say about this song that will do it justice. It makes me shiver.
