Perhaps I missed a memo or two, but how was the evening of misery? I saw the photos on the del-amitri.org weblog, but didn't see any reactions from anyone in attendance. Thanks, Rachel PS One more question: forgive my ignorance as a non Scot, but can anyone explain to me the etymology of "hogmany"? _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

First time I saw it I thought it was Joe Brady messing around, but it recently had the missive re the Monday Night Misery Club which Justin sent to Alison, and now it has a tale of Christmas shopping written in an unmistakably JC style. Worth keeping an eye on these sites. Jane Wow. Reminds me how at one point in my life the discovery of lyrics a la Currie touched such a chord inside; the sense that here was someone else who had looked into the blackness & stood there gazing as I had. But now here we are 10 years later & he's stepped even closer to the void, sitting there dangling his legs over the edge. Thanks for the heads-up, Jane, I'll sure check these sites from time to time. There's always hope. TTFN Susan ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Jan 2006 01:09:42 -0500 From: Michael Mitchell Subject: Re: OV: Goodbye 2005, Hello 2006 Nice to see your mail pop up. I'd echo your words. I'm still holding out hope we'll hear one day Justin's solo record, or maybe even something of the record he was working on with Iain early last year. Any of you 'insiders' on the list actually heard any of that stuff? I'm always stunned when I realize how much these guys are still on my mind. I'm sure I hear something of Justin's every day, and two or three of his tunes always pop up when I pick up the old Martin. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 31 Dec 2005 13:16:36 -0800 From: Susan Gore Gardner Subject: OV: Re: oppositeview-digest V7 #142 oppositeview-digest wrote: Hey its Canada's birthday again!

From: NIGELBLUES@aol.com Subject: OV: Goodbye 2005, Hello 2006 Wouldn't it be good if D.A., in some guise, could come out of long-term hibernation. I see so many groups from their ere, many lesser, still performing live, doing well and I just don't know how Justin makes a living these days... We've always got the music, we'll alaways have our memories but it's a shame it all seems to be history. Good on all of us for staying here and sticking together. Mmmm, Nigel, I second that emotion. What a treat its been to see the clips of Justin singing that are online right now... http://www.dropshots.com/Ginnie I do wish all y'all a terrific New Year! See you on OV!
