I'm just really (unexpectedly) busy right now and am only haphazardly reading messages both private and from the list. This is partly why I've been so insistent in the last week or so that people post in such a manner that their messages will not bounce to me on their way to the list. Although the majority of the time it's not really an issue, there are times when I am busy and just can't deal with these things in a timely manner.

And the wonderful Jason is just about right. The CD lists the first track "Unheard Music" as performed by "Elastica (with Steve Malkmus). So there you go. Leslie ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 23:05:42 -0500 From: Peter Washington Subject: Jealousy No, this isn't about the Liz song, but about how some people out there will probably feel when they hear this anecdote. My friend went to LA recently and had two brushes with celebrity. For him the highlight was meeting Nicholas Cage in Tower Records. But what will make certain people jealous is that his friend took him to a taping of the X files and David Duchovny, after walking past him and giving him weird looks several times, apparently stopped in front of him, gave him a head-to-toe going over, and then turned and walked off. Okay, so he didn't talk to him or anything, but he got to see them taping the X files (personally, I'd rather have Gillian notice me, but you gotta take what you can get).

Subject: More on Tom Petty, less on Liz I'm not one to change what I say for someone else's pleasure, but I realize that I kind of... was wrong when I was talking about Tom Petty. WEll no I wasn't, actually. I really really don't dislike Mr. P, but I just couldn't see myself as like... immersing myself in his music. HOwever, I really do think I want his greatest hits album. But it would be more recreational type music than... music I can really... get into. Maybe not. I don't know. SOmetimes you ahve to listen to things for a long time. Anyway... I finally found an mp3 of "refugee" and it just made me think of all the other songs I like to sing along with on the radio and I concluded that I should buy just the greatest hits album. Provided, of course, that I procure money. Or a rich man who will buy me things. Just joking, of course. I think I'll listen to John Lennon now. bye, Nicole ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 16:45:38 -0500 (EST) From: "Stacey Wirt" Subject: columbia house and mtv Hey everybody! Guess what? liz in the newest Columbia House catalogue ( page five if you must know). It's a little blurb about EIG...nothing terribly exciting, but still, they mentioned liz! She was also in the last catalogue, but they gave her a half page article and review thing. Hmmmm..... there was something else too... Oh yeah, the Real World for Katie.... I'm not sure, but I don't think that mtv has ever used a liz song in the backround. I know they use a lot of non-mainstream artists for thier "soundtracks" to these shows, but I've never heard liz. And speaking of mtv... I still think one of you out there with a video camera should send in a tape to the "fanatic" show. Come on, don't be shy!! you'll get to meet her!!! - --Stacey ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 17:26:50 -0500 (EST) From: liza kosciuch Subject: party of five hey this is kind of dumb, but last night i was procrastinating and doing anything possible to avoid reading my political science homework and i was flipping channels. i got to lifetime and party of five was on, a rerun, now i don't watch that show, but something i heard caused me to stay tuned. scott wolf and some girl were talking on a couch and "whip-smart" was playing in the background. i thought that was pretty cool. i remember people posting when they played a song off wcse, so i thought i'd post and let people know they're been playing liz for a while. liza ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 20:13:23 EST From: LULU428@aol.com Subject: Re: support-system-digest V2 #27 I confess that I am a real world/road rules junkie, and I've seen like every episode of every one (don't even say it), and unfortunatly no, they have not played liz. but I agree, it does seem like the perfect music to bring some edge to the real-life soap opera that is the real world. on another note, I was reading Time Out New York, the one with Hedwig on the cover, and I was reading the article about hedwig (my bro's company happens to promote this show as well and he said its amazing) and an album is coming out produced by Brad Wood. So thats what he's doing these days. He is described as indie-rock luminary Brad Wood. happy friday Lani ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 22:34:05 EST From: AngelLieb@aol.com Subject: KaTiE's Amazing Eggventure For some strange reason, I had a brush of good luck today and everywhere I went, I was able to get really close parking spaces. Kinda odd huh? But anyways, I was able to check out this really easy, but stupid game at work. I sucked really bad at it, but hey, I'm a girl and girls don't know how to use guns. What's the game called? Eggventure....... Serious! I just HAD to check it out. It's one of those stupid shoot-them-down games. Darn....if my movie theater only got pinball games so I could try that X Files game. Sigh.... *scratches head* Ohki....I'm really working on making a Phan out of this friend of mine. He knows how much I like listening to Liz and I think he's getting it. Me: Now, guess who this is? Friend: Um....Liz? Me: YAY! Good! Good! Sigh.....if only he gets the chance to listen to WCSE. Oh yeah...and then I get this lady who laminates my stuff saying: Where did you get all of these beautiful pictures? Um....ever heard of magazines? Sooooo...I'm guessing she's saying Liz is pretty. But anyways, X Philes...don't worry! I'm working on starting a list! I couldn't get to it tonight.

(not that it needed validation.) his music is very different from hers, but i think they share a certain musical playfulness, especially in their lyrics. sometimes lyle can be pretty serious; other times it's like listening to a stand-up comic. and he's amazing live, if you get to see him with his "large band." (solo on this last tour, he was a little dull, i thought.) i love everybody (which is acoustic), joshua judges rush (which is a little jazzier), and the road to encinada (which tends toward country) are all excellent albums. ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V2 #28 ***********************************
