All I ask is that you mail back, either privately or publicly, to comment on it. I personally find it... (omicron scrounges through his somewhat limited repertoire of superlatives) ...entrancing. Unfortunately, Geocities won't let me upload the file with its true extension (or perhaps I'm just too web-illiterate to know how) so right-click on the link below and save it with .asf as the extension. Also, make sure you have the latest MS Windows 98 Media Player (http://microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/download/Win32IE4x86.asp) to listen to it. The first time you run MS Media 4.0 it will go online to add a few Codecs before playing the song. This will only be required the first time. The clip's location is http://www.geocities.com/~voxweb/Balligom.wav Cheers. - -- omicron ____________________________________________________________ "Things aren't what they were.

My first comment is that proprietary file formats suck, a sentiment I'm sure all of those not using Windows 98 probably agree with at this point. Anyway, as for the clip itself, I liked it well enough, but I was by no means blown away. I should probably state at this point that I'm not a fan of Delerium and similar bands, and my reaction to this clip was like my reaction to what Kristy has done with Delerium... I love Kristy's voice and as long as the rest of the music doesn't interfere with me listening to that voice I'm content.

So, here comes my question, which is a little trivial I'm afraid. Is Kristy left handed? Also, I've never seen her in concert, so does she play guitar a lot? I know these aren't great, or even interesting, questions but it isn't really likely that I'll get to Canada or the US to see her live, so could someone humour me?

It's possible the image was flipped before posted to the source I got it from. Plus, I never really checked at the last show I went to (which was an embarassingly long time ago). > Also, I've never seen her in concert, so does she play guitar a lot? Yep. I'd say more often than not. - -- omicron ____________________________________________________________ "Things aren't what they were.

Okay, now I'm interested! I strongly urge you to get this sound clip in a format that those who do not belong to the dark empire can listen to. - -Tony ------------------------------ End of vicious-thorn-digest V3 #36 **********************************
