I believe so. It seems that every bootleg of any band I have ever seen
has several misspelled song titles. One 10,000 Maniacs bootleg I have
doesn't even have the band's name as 10,000 Maniacs! I guess this
protects from copyright violation in some way, or at least all these
people think it does.

ummm, i'm not sure! all i know is that it is white, it is a gibson
ES335. it has f-holes, black pickplate, etc. i'm not sure of the
hardware or anything. does this help???

I have never heard a Cocteau boot I liked. In fact I have never
heard ANY boot I've liked, period. I'm not an expert on bootlegs
but I have always been disappointed by muddy/muffled sound
quality with absolutely no dynamic range. Obviously soundboard
recordings would eliminate the problem. I know of one these
for the Cocteaus: the Columbus, Ohio show from years ago
(1987?) set up by Tim Anstaett of the Offense Newsletter.
The problem here was with the sound mix being put out
from the board-- the vocals were too low for much of the show,
overall the mix wasn't too good.
Before anyone asks, I'm afraid I have to say that I can't
make copies of this tape. Besides now having absolutely no way
to duplicate tapes, it would be a conflict of interest, having been
given the responsibility of working out a fan club by Robin Guthrie
himself. I don't know the band's attitude regarding live tapes,
so until I do, I need uncategorically to decline any requests.

clue me in?

jazzMASTER jOHN will be in attendance if anyone wants to wave and

please...preferably with f-holes and SILVER hardware}..then a nice
les paul {black or a nice deep green stain...yum...}. from there, i'll
move on to the fender jaguar...muahahahaha.....

This week's NME features a pub chat between Kristin H, Ian McCulloch
and the Boo Radleys' Martin Carr. KH has gone for the Dolores Cranberry
haircut, i.e. slightly longer than Frank Black's, but not much. Pram's
latest LP gets the worst review I have ever seen in the magazine, too.

this is a new track, yes. ....and i suggest you listen to it again,
preferably at a high volume. to me, it's nothing like the pleasant
trilogy of BBK, HOLV, & FCC. they've moved on.......it's more like
seefeel, if you must know, but it's also very much a work of
robinlizsimon. this is the single most amazing piece of music the
cocteaus have done in some time (and i _liked_ FCC). be looking forward
to the two new eps as it seems they're going to be brilliant......
thanks be to einexile.thanks be to neil.thanks be to spiral.thanks be to
seefeel.......

someone posted that this was a new material, well not really...just
stuff released as singles which were for the most part available in the
US. this is just a happy package of this stuff. i now bow out to a
more learned Sterelob-aholic than I to fill in the gaps or beat me with
their words.
