Have you ever read anything Gerard Cosloy has ever written? There can be some pretty funny stuff. Brett "But then, Liz Phair's tale itself is a fairy tale. A distant descendant of Marie Antoinette, Phair spent her formative years in a preparatory academy for girls in the south of France, 'where I was taught to be a well-mannered young lady and aspired to a suitable marriage. I knew how to wear a strand of pearls at just the right lenght," she recalss, somewhat wistfully. "But of course, I fell from grace. I'd taken and independent study in wine fermenting, and was caught in a compromising position with a barrel boy. Then there was that wacky incident when I set free a whole kennel of impounded pups, crying 'for shame, for shame, run free my brothers, my sons.' I was like Heidi with a little more money and a penchant for substance abuse.' Happily, Phair was extricated from disgrace by a prominent suburban Chicago family, and she went on to recieve the kind of first-class liberal arts education requireed to play the rock 'n' roll game. The rest-her self-released "Girly sound" cassettes, her signing to Matador-is history." Also, another section reads:"Frankly, we didn't expect to be sending you this record, as Ms. Phair became the toast of A&R Departments everywhere. When she was spotted around Los Angeles towering over the Artist-Formerly Knonwn as Prince the idently of her new record company was no longer a secret, but then Paisley Park went under. The collaborative composition "Supernova" is all that remains of that star-crossed coupling. Matador was happy to have her back, and fortunately, after much cajoling, Atlantic President Danny Goldberg agreed to distribute "whip-smart" in exchange for CD-Rom rights to the next Chain Gang record. I leave you all with this for discussion.... sarah _______________________________________________________ Say Bye to Slow Internet! http://www.home.com/xinbox/signup.html ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2000 17:01:59 EDT From: "Just Another Girl" Subject: Re: hey you guys i was wonderin <> Yes, I am from the relative Allentown area. Depending on how big the area is. I live in Warminster, so, I don't know how close you consider that to be. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

One of my all-time favorite bands the Go-Betweens (anyone ever hear of them?) have reunited after 10+ years and have released a new album called "The Friends of Rachel Worth." They are a band worth checking out if you've never heard of them. Their albums dates back to the late 70s up until the late 80s when the band broke up. Interesting note, on "...Rachel Worth" the core of what was the Go-Betweens, Robert Forster and Grant McLellan are backed by Janet Weiss from Sleater-Kinney on drums, Adele Pickvance, on bass, Sam Coombes from Quasi and Elliott Smith on keyboards. Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker from Sleater-Kinney play guitar and sing on one track. For more info on the new album and the band check out http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004XSRY/o/qid=970088425/sr=2-1/00 2-2758541-2763221 Also check out their last album "16 Lovers Lane". Fuckin beautiful stuff man... Sorry for no Liz content, but I did happen to come across the info above only because I was checking to see if Liz was listed on any upcoming releases lists. Ah, I love music, Al :) ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V3 #260 ************************************
