(july issue) about Immortal: i begged and pleaded with my friend from Chapel hill to get me a copy. "rent it and send it to me. i'll copy it and pay late fees." "no," she said. "but i NEED it!" i said. "guess who did most of the composing of that soundtrack," she said. "squirrel nut zippers!" i replied. "no, not them. Joe!" (Joe Caparo, her roommate, ex-doleful lion, and guy-mentioned-in-a-bff-song) "woah" i said. "he said that movie is total crap and not worth getting, even if the Zippers are in it for a second." well that's the word on the MOVIE "Immortal"...as for the soundtrack well i believe Shaun "I love the shrubbery!" Smakal when he says it's good. i tried to order it (the sndtrk) from permanent records and ya know what? THEY NEVER SENT IT! nor did they tel me they got my credit card #. and to that i say... "EVIL!" (to quote mc simon milligan, of course.)

Prettiest male Zipper in a dress?: >> Stu wins hands down. In the Perennial ECD, if you go to the SNZ's section & then to Stu's section. Click on his book & then go to page 17 (the last page of text) click on the "S" in Stu's name on that page. That will bring up a "Glamour Shots" picture of him in drag. The funny thing about that photo is that Chris Phillips told me that he had seen that picture hanging in a bar in Chapel Hill for years & never realized it was Stu. cw ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Jun 1999 11:10:36 EDT From: ClayWalk@aol.com Subject: Re: the-landing-digest V2 #143 << So Clay, how did you like yelling and singing on "She's Allright"???? >> I'm confused about that one. I don't remember singing on that one but I was throwing up in the background during the recording of one song from "Songs For Rosetta." I got food poisoning and had to put the cameras down for awhile to hug Glen Graham's toilet. cw ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Jun 1999 11:18:07 EDT From: ClayWalk@aol.com Subject: unlocking << Yes, yes, you've had this info on your web site since Perennial Favorites came out, with the promise that hints how to accomplish this trick would be forthcoming. Well Mr. Smarty Pants, it's coming up on a year since we where all blessed with PF and there's been no word that anyone's unlocked Shorty's little secret. How `bout a hint? Is it an Adobe like trick where some arcane combination of keys reveals a hidden pop-up window, or is it stranger still? >> really, it's very simple. First of all, Shorty can be seen in one of the video clips in "Hot." In PF, I can say that you simply have to click somewhere on that screen to get the blocks to go away & it will bring up a picture of Mr. Shorty. It just takes one click. Of course I realize that if you don't click on it just right it will make the book go away.... cw ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Jun 1999 09:18:06 PDT From: Lindsay Pummell Subject: Re: i hope i did this right!

'97, Bogarts again Sept '98 free front row bar/balcony seats (out of a total of 20) courtesy of Ken. Got to hang around with Ken for a while plus also met Je, Stu, Jim, and Tom.

Also Sheryl Crow (Ken told me he once met Sheryl... I've just got the T-shirt and all the CD's including every single and import variant). Other current bands I'd like to see: Barenaked Ladies (wouldn't we all.. but I meant the band of intellectuals from Canada), Brian Setzer Orchestra. Not bad taste for a 41-year old phart, eh? Add me to the list (9.4 million strong) of middle-aged fat guys who want to meet Sheryl Crow. > 7. If i could rename the band, i'd rename them: I wouldn't.

Zipper I'd most like to be stuck in an elevator with: That's more of a question for the ladies I think since the only female Zipper is already spoken for. Although if I ended up stuck in a 'vator with Tom and Ken and we all had our saxes with us... could be an interesting jam session. > 9. Zipper who's job i'd most like to have: Ok... supose an imaginary 22-year old sweet blonde 5'5 100 lbs joins SNZ as a backing vocal and falls in love with me after meeting backstage and so I go on the road with them as a backup sax player. How's that for a fantasy? I wouldn't want to take away anyone's job, they all do it better than I could... but would be fun to be part of the band. And bring along my "friend"... > 10. Prettiest male Zipper in a dress?: Well if I joined the band, it certainly wouldn't be me :-) My ex-wife used to say in my bathrobe I looked like Marge Schott.... eeeeewwww!!

As far as the moving sucking, is really a no brainer (no offence to those involved in its production). I mean, it's an independant film! 99.9% of those thing suck HARD! but 99.9% of them don't have the Zippers either. It's just somethin i wanna see... Concerning your order to permanent records, During my search for Immortal based stuff, I came to be known slighty well with them. I got an order out to them a while back too and it hasn't gone thru yet--I sent them a check though and according to my bank statement, it should be the next in line. I drop them an e-mail tommarow and see what's up. Yes, the Immortal sndtrck is good. not hugely zipperific except for Danny Daimond but it's got some great college bands (particularily Vertigo Joyride) that i wish were still playin' (many are but with different groups). I think I'll repost my review of the CD tommarow too Awww shucks, I do like the Shrubbery!
