Excellent recommendation! I was a bit dubious because I'd never even heard OF them, let alone heard any of their stuff, but I got hold of the Secret Society EP you recommended, plus an album called Where Have My Countrymen Gone?, and they're both pretty damned good! If anyone else hasn't heard them yet, I strongly suggest you give them a go. By the way, I was on holiday all last week, and have spent this week catching up on things, hence my lack of input here, but I'm up to speed now so look out! ;-) ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2003 11:04:51 -0400 From: "Charbonneau, Peter J" Subject: RE: seven-seas OT The Sheila Divine Sheila Divine are a really good band... Boston-based. Their first album, "The New Parade" is probably their best IMO, but the EP and "Countrymen" are also up there. I dig the guitar work and Aaron Perrino's singing. Sadly, they are calling it a day and are playing 2 farewell shows at the Paradise in Boston on Oct. 10-11. Sad to see 'em go. - -----Original Message----- From: matt.harkness@bt.com [mailto:matt.harkness@bt.com] Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2003 11:00 AM To: seven-seas@smoe.org Subject: seven-seas OT The Sheila Divine May I just say.....thanks Henry!

I honestly thought you might have left the playground over Barry's critique of T3. I must admit to being curious as to your reply :-) - ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2003 11:01:56 -0500 From: Amy Moseley Rupp Subject: seven-seas OT: okay, it's NOT Friday yet, but.... THE TOP 15 THINGS YOU WISH YOU COULD SAY IN WORK 1. I can see your point, but I still think you're full of shit. 2. I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a shit. 3. How about "never"? Is "never" good for you? 4. It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying. 5. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public. 6. Ahhh, I see the fuck-up fairy has visited us again. 7. You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers. 8. I'm already visualising the duct tape over your mouth. 9. The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist. 10. Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject. 11. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you. 12. I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce. 13. Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental. 14. I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid. 15. I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant. - ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ Of all coinicdences a friend just sent this, Especially for those of us who've ever had to work in any variety of customer service job...
