 Mark Eitzel was not so hot. he is more or
>less a jerk and not at all ashamed to display it.

The SF and Sacramento shows were absolutely fantastic! In reality, Mark
isn't a jerk. I heard about the show and it seemed more like he was
frustrated with himself but I don't think that makes him a "jerk". What are
you basing your conclusion on? That he became angry when his guitar wasn't
tuned correctly? That after all that, he broke a string and became more
irate?  I don't know of not one performer who hasn't had a bad day/show but
I certainly would reserve my judgement unless, of course, he spat on you
and/or barfed and then left never to return ...

 I think the best part
>of his band is his horn player.

I'd have to disagree here. If you'd been at the other shows you'd say the
real talent, aside from Mark E., is former AMC member Bruce Kaphan who
plays the steel pedal.

The "half a cow" comment was an aside by me, referring to Damien "Dave
Stewart's my best mate" Hirst, the enfant terrible of British Art.  His
works include a cow and calf bisected and pickled in formaldehyde, and a
shark pickled in formaldehyde.

I grew up in a household where the British Medical Journal was left
lying around, so I don't really have a problem with pictures of "gross"
things, but I think there's a difference between the Pale Saints cover
(which is recognisable as some sort of meat, even if we can't decide
what), and a straightforward picture of a lot of embryos - one is
intriguing, the other is just a feeble attempt to be controversial and
shocking (see also pickled cows, above).

The two songs do *not* sound exactly the same - they may be related, but
there's a big difference ("Childcatcher" doesn't have the catchy chorus,
and the tunes of the verses are quite different, too).

Twenty minutes of A-grade BSE-free Kim Deal heaven, and a lot of trashy

Did you really think I was implying that the cover was literally a load
of embryos?  Of course it's a photo.  "Disgusting" wasn't meant to be
taken literally, either - as I said above, I'm not unaccustomed to such
images.

And (for those of you who have struggled this far) has anyone else
noticed how 4AD-ish the vocals on Orbital's "Snivilisation" are?  Alison
Goldfrapp has worked with Tricky in the past, and she's on the new
Orbital single "The Box" as well (also has some heavy duty harpsichord
hammering like the solo in the Brandenburg concertos).  She does that
"abstract wailing" Lisa/Liz thing rather well.

One of my favorite new band discoveries right now is
Eight Page Story from Claremont, CA. They have no releases
yet except demo tapes, so the only way to hear them is
to go see a show. The next one is this Thursday April 25
somewhere in Claremont (Motley at Columbia and 9th) at 10pm.
I want people to see this band, so I'll be providing
transportation if anyone here in the greater Los Angeles area
is interested. How to describe the music? It's kinda indiepop,
but not overly twee or cute... lots of happy, upbeat energy...
female singer named Bethani who I'm sure most people here would
like... an overall Sundays kind of feel.

Too many bands, too little money.

Don't know if Henry Frayne's reading 4ad-l anymore,
but I thought some others would be interested as well
to hear that last Friday, out of the blue, I got a letter
from Stichting Xymox Control in The Netherlands, which I
thought probably some Xymox fan club. Someone was asking for
a copy of Thurtene because of The Moon Seven Times' cover
of "Michelle" on there. Then I read who it was signed by:
Ronny Moorings-- the vocalist for Xymox himself! So that's
one more of the bands covered that'll hear what was done to their
song (very few left now-- looks like I'll have another chance with
Modern English coming 'round soon, speaking of which they play
at the House Of Blues on May 29th).

Well, as I live in Kansas City MO, where they are kinda from, I get to hear
about them constantly.  I shouldn't complain, they really are OK (saw them open
for Luna).  Probably the most intriguing band to come out of this town in a
while.  If you think they sound like Spaceman 3, you're right on the money.
Sonic Boom produced an EP for them, and a couple of tracks on the new CD
(actually, they may be tracks from the EP, I don't know, cause I don't own any
of their stuff).

There is a website for Shallow at:

It's a fairly new website and still under construction.

i've got one of their tapes; it's an 8 song cassette called
"lackadaisical."  really good stuff, it reminds me quite a bit of the
cranes, but the singer's voice doesn't quite as childish as alison's,
imho.  they also have a cd out called "3-D stereo trouble" which i
haven't heard.  personally, i'd try and go to their concert.

What is this?!?  The Please SPAM us list?  Unless you're selling graphic design
software that will deconvolute album cover art into it's original animal
carcasses then i'm not interested.

Note that this was sent to several lists:

from header:
>   From: Terry 

>   Subject:      shareware offer
>   Comments: To: "[email protected]"
>   <[email protected]>,

>   "[email protected]"
>   <[email protected]>,
>   "[email protected]" 
>   To: Multiple recipients of list 4AD-L
>   <[email protected]>

Anyone else gonna send "Terry" a polite but verbose reminder that this is not
the place for this?

Subject: New Stereolab reviews?


Doesn't anyone want to share a review or comments on the new Stereolab
album? I've seen a few one-line comments on it but nothing more
descriptive. I'll certainly end up buying it, but MAQ was rather
disappointing so it's rather lower on my shopping list than it would
otherwise be. I listened to the first few seconds at Tower the other day
and the first track reminded me strongly of Tortoise(!).

So if anyone would like to post a review, mini or otherwise, I'd greatly
appreciate it. Ta.

Subject: Dealing with spammers [Re: shareware offer]


The way to respond to spams posted to the list is to complain to the
spammer's Internet provider, which is typically "postmaster" at the same
domain as the spammer, e.g. "[email protected]" in the most
recent case. Put "spam" in the title and include a copy of the message.
Explain that the message was sent to an entire mailing list and that it
was inappropriate. Don't be rude, it's not their fault. Urge them to
reprimand the spammer. If you're feeling extra cruel, cc the spammer.

Sending responses to the list, like:

>        Don't do this, Terry!  No one on this list subscribes to be sold
>whatever the hell your selling.

is useless -- 9 chances out of ten this idiot doesn't even subscribe to
the list. But when a postmaster gets flooded with complaints as a result
of a spam perpetrated by one of her users, her wrath will be fast and
terrible. I've gotten some very gratifying responses regarding some
recent spammers... (evil cackle)

        Thanks, Frank, for a response that not only doesn't give an
answer to the question, but does so in a very tired way.
        Thanks for wasting my time.

Subject: lush notes


You'd think that with a dissertation due on my chairperson's desk
in five months, I wouldn't being doing too much work on my WWWeb
page dedicated to a silly English band (then again, perhaps it
explains exactly why I just spent an hour tidying things up :-)

So, new on the Lush pages, two different reviews of the recent show
in Houston.  Find out why Lush may never play the great state of
Texas again!

Find new links to the "official" (and very slow loading) Lush
pages!!

Find new links to the recent Live Chat Interview!!!

Also find info on how to subscribe to both "starlust" and "4AD-L".
I was getting so many email requests for info that I decided to
put the info on the pages.  I promise to remove it if we begin to
be swamped by addle-minded lush fans...

Reality

p.s.  I haven't been siphoning off the reviews people have been
posting here.  If you want your review added to the pages, feel
free to send it to me.  Though don't expect an immediate reply,
please.

Not my idea of massive or "World".  I know I've whinged about this before, but
given that they began in Melbourne, why not include Australia in the tour?
