    I think someone posted here about Miki's huge house. How huge is
Miki's house and how can she afford such a house? Did she just buy it?
How much money do Lush make? How much money do 4-ad artists make in
general? How much to they tax in Britian?

So I'm at a party, and I'm mingling.  Drink in one hand, left hand helping
out with various descriptions as I'm (surely) making witty conversation.
I'm smiling with folks they're smiling back.  Ohh, take a glance at my face
(subtly) on the back of this spoon.  My lord I look smashing, if I do say so
myself.  Enough of this.  I must spread my manner on this gathering like St.
Nick spreads Christmas cheer.  Who shall I floor first? Ta-ta-ta
da-da-de-dum-dum-dada-de  eeeyow, there we go.  I've eyed my (victims) err my
"company".   I slide with brisk confidence to a group of people in which
Descartes is a part of.  They're commenting on the upcoming elections, which
I am very interested in.  I nod my head to various points being brought up in
silent agreement.  Smiling like a pro with a lengthy pearl drops contract.
 There is a pause in the action, and I add my two cents.  I look at Descartes
directly and ask, "What chance do you think the Republicans have in a unified
concord in Mr. Dole?"   He chuckled mildly and condescendingly I might add
(at my obvious absurd not to mention mundane question) and answered glibly,
"Well, I don't think that..."

and he disappeared.

Now who's chuckling?  On with the show...

Yes. "I think, therefore I am a waffle" would be "Cogito, ergo Eggo sum",
which kinda destroys the structure.

How about: "Cogito ergo spud" - I think, therefore I yam

And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart

        i think it was big NOSE. as in nasal organ. nadiz.
        altho im not sure i agree.

        grabbing the 'lush' ball and running with it, did
        anyone catch 120 minutes last week? matt pinfield
        (aka uncle fester) interviewed lush who were playing
        a festival in D.C.. as is his custom, the questions
        all required a simple yes or no answer, and revealed
        little about the group.

        they played the ladykillers video after, and i must say
        that the shaving the pavement tape, coupled with
        seeing this video often on 120 minutes has changed
        my opinion about what lush seem to be doing, sound-wise.

        its growing on me. i presently own no lush lps, and
        would like a referral.  being a rabid CT fan, is
        spooky the natural place for me to dip my toe
        in?

Bemused beyond belief !!! - How about talking about something novel like =
the artwork on the SCHEER album - Most CD stores here in SA are afriad =
to put up the poster - so the backing boards (which are great) are being =
used instead. Personally I think it's great....

Subject: no foretene


Based on some soul searching and conversations with
the bands involved, Dewdrops has decided NOT to release
another 4AD tribute. Even though we're sure we could
completely surpass Thurtene in quality, we reasoned that
a compilation of original material would be taken more
seriously, and the bands would be heard on their own
terms doing their own thing, without the baggage of trying
to live up to the original 4AD track and being judged by
their relative success (or lack of...). So, there WILL
be a compilation of bands we admire, but it won't be
Foretene. We haven't completely given up on doing
another tribute, but for now it has almost zero priority.

This compilation will be the next release on our label,
and it may be out by the end of the year. There are at least
20 bands we'd like to include, and most have been contacted
already by us. There is the possibility of including a
"big name" or two, but everything is still very uncertain.
We have several bands committed already, and in a month or two
we should be closer to having a better defined list, at which
point I'll post it here.

At least one band is working on a 4AD cover, and
another has already been recorded and released, so there may
well be a few covers included. It will be strictly limited
to "a few" though.

In the meantime, all of our other five releases are still
available, and all the ordering info is at our web site.
All copies we owe of Dewdrops fanzine #15 should have been
received already. If you're a subscriber and didn't get yours
yet, contact me. A few have been returned from bad addresses.

Faith and Disease did a cover of "Louise" by Clan Of Xymox
on their first album.
I think it's definitely worth hearing, and it will be included
as one of the possibly "few" cover songs on "not foretene".
Another band is working on a Lush cover of "Thoughtforms,"
my favorite Lush song, so I'm letting them do it for a
possible spot on the compilation. Other than that, circumstances
would have to be really special to include any more covers.

Unless you're This Mortal Coil, I never felt that 4AD songs could be
covered and at the same time be given a fresh take. No offense to the
Thurtene bands, but like many fellow listies I was very disappointed with
the first tribute CD and am somewhat relieved that there will not be
another one. I agree with Dewdrops that a regular compilation will be much
better received.

On that note, not counting Thurtene, have there been any good covers of 4AD
songs (by non-4AD artists)?

If all we discussed on this list was good music on or loosely associated
with 4AD, the list would come to a grinding halt and we'd all forget who
each other is. Just think of these stupid messages as the online
equivalent to those useless television ads that just tell you the name of
a corporation without supplying one iota of information re what they do,
etc. Sometimes it's better that way.

On a more enthusiastic note, we have a new The The album to look forward
to in about eight months.

Political messages like the recent "mission impossible" post are not
necessarily inappropriate to the list, but should be added onto the end
of a relevant post (if any) or simply as a pointer in your sig, etc.
There's no reason to post a huge message like that. I doubt the
alt.politics.* hierarchy wants to see our auction information, eh? My
assessment of the Russian situation is that the real reason the election
upsets Americans is because a politician who in the US would be thought
of as a moderate "conservative" is gladly (and appropriately) calling
himself a communist. You can be a communist without forcing the masses
into farmin co-ops and so forth. Tax incentives and regulatory arm
twisting count, too. Zyuganov, unless he is a liar like Zhirinovsky,
presents mainly a threat to corrupt former members of the Communist Party
who have used their power to get away with murder in the poorly-named
"free" market that has emerged. I don't agree a bit with his politics,
personally, but I seriously doubt we have in this man a monster on the
order of Yeltsin. Folks ought to calm down some about this election.

Hi you all,

at first thanks for the replies to my problem.

I finally found a pretty easy way: Drop Eudora and use the MS Internet Mail

I put in the [email protected] address as reply address and used a

This worked with MS software, but not with Eudora...

Hope this might help some others....

Someone posted that it was Miki's nose instead of house they were
talking about. No! No! No!  Some teenybopper mag in Britan had an
interview with Miki in her house and stated something about how huge
her house was at all that good stuff. I guess I read about this
somewhere else, sorry for the mix up!

Are you joking? Lush are from Camden England. Maybe you have Miki and
the lead singer from Garbage mixed up, she's from Scotland. Get your
damn facts straight man! This is the 4-ad list!

(1) Scotland is part of Britain. It's not part of England. Northern
Ireland is not part of Britain (it's in the UK.)
(2) If Lush are Scottish that's the first I've heard of it! None of them
have Scottish accents and the band was formed in London...

I have heard, on the other hand, that His Name Is Alive are actually from
Michigan, which is not part of America; apparently it's part of Canada.
Michigan, as you may have heard, is the Canadian province that's been
arguing about secession due to most of its people having a different
accent from the rest of the people in Canada and supporting different
hockey teams.

Scott, Mari and/or Brian asked:
>How much money do 4-ad artists make in general?

I'm told that 4AD artists earn 500 pounds a year, which in England (or
Scotland) is enough money to buy a palatial house stocked with slaves.
(See any Jane Austen novel, esp. "Clueless".) The reason the Cocteau
Twins left 4AD is that they wanted Lucy Belle to draw a salary as well,
as she'd been giving Liz voice lessons, which Ivo refused. At Fontana
they got this written into their contract plus all the haggis they can
eat.

>How much to they tax in Britian?

Britain has no taxes as such -- Margaret Thatcher abolished them while
she was Queen, in favor of a new law (the "Magna Carta") that allows the
Queen to come visit your house unannounced and take anything she wants if
it'll fit in her handbag. This explains why British (and Welsh) currency
is so large and hard to fold up.

You may be confusing them with Cocteaus

Well she is but its North Ireland which is

on its own. Which reminds me. Would anyone

They are more snapshot in quality, but there

ha ha this is hilarious...as a native of Canada. I can assure you
that Michigan never was nor will be a province of Canada. Everyone
knows that the Leafs wouldn't stand for the Red Wings sharing
their turf. Thankfully now that Mulooney is gone, Canada will
remain the country that it is and not the new acquisition of the

Erm, wrong, dear Jens.  The dearly beloved mitten-shaped state of Michigan is
not a part of any country; rather, it is the center of the universe.
Livonia, in fact, is the absolute spindle around which all things revolve.
Plato has philosophised over it, Nostradamus has foreseen it, and Robert
Tilton has spoken in tongues about it ever since 1973.  Grand Funk Railroad
hails from Michigan, along with the J. Geils Band, Ed B. Chaffee, and the
mighty practitioners of post-post-pre-post-rock, Ohio.
