        Here's a partial list of the bands that Fixsen has worked with:
The Breeders, My Bloody Valentine, Throwing Muses,Ecstasy Of St. Theresa,
Rollerskate Skinny, Moonshake, and Dog Faced Hermans. It should also be
noted that Fixsen and his Laika co-hort, Margaret Fiedler, have done
re-mixes for The Wolfgang Press, God Is My Co-Pilot, and will also be
working with Stereolab. He did a really wonderful job on the Air Miami
album.

It might be hard to find in a record store, but since I just ordered a
copy from 4AD a couple of months ago, and have since seen a copy in a
neighborhood record store, it's sure not impossible to find.

My dear boy, if you did look like a hom buying one, I'm sure it would have
been a great improvement.

My guess is you look like all the other straight middle class boys
staggering out of the Poly discos on a Saturday night, unable to be as
popular with the girls as the course queer in the feather boa, snazzy
threads and right dance moves.

I do despair of the younger generation sometimes.....

An update on the bidding for the 4AD calendar and poster sets.

The current highest bids are:

Poster set:  $237 (approximately equivalent to 150 UK pounds)
             Brendan McCarthy 

             MACLEOD 

Please note that the currency conversion calculations include an element to
take account of commission charges (it costs me 8 pounds = $12 to convert a
cheque in US dollars to UK pounds).

All further bids should be sent to [email protected].  From now on, I
will only email updates to the people who currently hold the highest bids
and anybody who outbids them.

More instructions are appended after my signature.

I am selling the following 4AD items.

1. Calendar, 1990, XAD0001.  Excellent condition except that cover has a
little physical damage (probably due to someone using the calendar as a
base for writing a note or two! --- there is no ink as such on the
calendar).

2. Poster set (15 in all), 1986, WAD23.  Eight of the posters are in mint
condition.  Seven have, at one time or another, been blu-tacked (blu-tack
is a sort of sticky plasticy substance that is not supposed to damage
either poster or wall) to walls.  Hence they have a few minor creases,
slightly worn corners and blu-tack discolouration on the back (not the
front).  Overall I'd give it a "very good", rather than an "excellent".

I am holding an open (bids and bidders will be made public) auction for
these items.  When making your bids, you may like to note the following.

1. I will not charge extra for postage and packing.  Bidders from outside
Western Europe should note that unless they specify otherwise with their
bid, I will send by airmail.

2. Bids should be in U.K. pounds sterling or U.S. dollars.  Those who bid
in dollars should note that I will accept payment only in cash (not
recommended!!) or by cheque, which will cost me about eight pounds to
convert.  This cost of conversion and current exchange rates will be taken
into account in deciding the winning bids.

Bids should be sent to [email protected].  Any bids not sent to that
address may not be seen by me.  Every few days, I will post an update
giving details of the winning bids to date and the relevant bidders.
Bidding will close at 12pm (noon) GMT on Monday 7 August (bids have to be
received by me by that time).  That same day, I will post notification of
the winning bids and bidders and attempt to swap snail mail addresses with
the winning bidders.

Hope all the above makes sense.

If memory serves me correctly, this is the newest (Fall '95, I assume)
sampler from 4AD.  It includes songs by Lisa Germano, Heidi Berry, Air
Miami, Tarnation, Liquorice, Lisa Gerrard and others.  I only saw this
for a few brief moments at my friend's house last night, so I can't give
any particulars on it.  I'll see if I can get my hands on it (or get my
own copy) and post more if possible...

Hello Everyone:

Allow me to clarify my earlier posting.  I already have all official releases fr
m Pale
Saints, Spoonfed Hybrid, and Cocteau Twins.  I am desperately seeking anyone who
might have live tapes or other bootleg tapes of these bands.  Please note that I
have
no interest in the horrible travesty  that Pale Saints became after Ian Masters 
eft, so I
guess I'm talking about material from before 1994.  Somebody out there must be a
fan
of these bands!  I'm sure such tapes must exist somehwere.  I already have 2 Coc
eau
Twins bootlegs but no Pale Saints/Spoonfed Hybrid bootlegs.  If you're intereste
 in
trading for other tapes, I have about 230 tapes of various bands (Dinosaur Jr., 
ure,
Hawkwind, R.E.M., Thin White Rope, Slowdive and many others).
