It's called Not Just Another Space and a new topic will be posted every month. What happens is, you guys join the mailing list, then the webring, then I add you to the ring and it's all set! Anyway, go to http://www.geocities.com/sarahvox/space And see if you'd like to join. By the way, I got some addresses from my Stories From The City webring. Nothing wrong with a shameless plug here and there [IMAGE]. *************** http://www.geocities.com/sarahvox ICQ: 131558324 "I was reading about what was going on in Afghanistan--the way women were being oppressed, the destruction of religious statues. And when I heard that song, I just imagined a huge juicy vagina coming out of the sky, raining blood over all those racist, misogynist fuckers."

As I said: filler, filler, filler, three >catchy little choons that have some memories attached so I don't mind >listening to them occasionally, filler, filler, filler... Okay - had to add my opinion in for a second. I can see where your coming from with the filler comments but then hello i think half of SLG (album) is filler crap with a couple of good covers thrown in there. I however happen to like Dido's "filler" crap and listen to it a hell of a lot more than SLG's. One song i take exeption to being called filler though is Isobel. It is *such* a good song!!!! Highlight of the album for me. Oh - and live the highlights were Take My Hand (you just had to get up and dance to it...) and All You Want - because that song took on a completely different meaning - - it was a scathing song live. A big fuck you. On the CD it doesn't sound like that at all. But again - please - listen to Isobel!

Hence my not having bought SLG. I *almost* did, when I found out they were giving away huge posters with it, but I got to the counter and found out there were none left so put the CD back in the rack and left, lol. KF> I however happen KF> to like Dido's "filler" crap and listen to it a hell of a lot more than KF> SLG's. For what it's worth, I guess I do too. No, I lie, I've probably listened to both about the same: long enough to decide that while neither are painful to my ears, there are many many things I'd rather spend time listening to. KF> One song i take exeption to being called filler though is Isobel. KF> But again - please - listen to Isobel! Damnit, you're asking me to turn off Radiohead here.... a big ask!

But again - please - listen to Isobel! Actually, I'll give you 'All You Want'. I should have put that in my list of "catchy little choons" with the other three. 'Isobel' isn't really grabbing me, I'm afraid. Sorry, I'm trying, but... no. I'm not saying it's horrible. It just doesn't stick out and grab me by the guts, the way I like music to. ~Becc. :) - -- witnessed: www.barbaric-yawp.com/journal ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2001 14:57:20 +1100 From: "Lavenda" Subject: [oztori] care package? Hey all, Has there been any word from Rala about the care package? I've jsut read the thread on the tour forum about the London show and there's no mention of a girl from Aus with a parcel for Tori (though there is mention of an Aussie guy with the Q mag with PJ, Bjork and Tori on cover), but they only seem to cover the pre-show m&g. Anyway, just wondering what Tori said about it all, whether she commented on coming to Aus and what fun Rala got up to!

Or was that Rachael's? Or are they both the same people? Or are there aliens? Or gorillas in the mist? Anyway, I though that's what the G-O was with the Oztori care package, but I can't be sure. But I don't know how true any of the above comments are, so this email may just be a waste of yours and my time. Heeeee.
