I have posted about this once, but no one seems to have caught the post, so here it goes again... Has anyone seen the Blue Garbage single & tell me its origin ? I have seen this at my local CD store(Dingleberry's of Centerville, Ohio) and I've also seen it in the San Francisco area too. It is in a case similiar to the import singles & its cover is a bunch of blue feathers w/a black "G". It contains about five songs, which are all remixes, including a Milk one, Stupid Girl(Red Snapper, I believe) & Dog New Tricks Pal Mix(I'm quite sure of this)....just curious about this mystery single type disc...
