No, perhaps some people (myself included) just REALLY REALLY LIKE the band. I listen to their music so frequently and so intently, and get so much out of it, that maybe you COULD call it a religion. If you don't get into the band as much, that's your own business, but don't slam others for their enthusiasm.

If you're not interested in this band, then unsubscribe from the list. For some of us, they are not so much a religion , but a force that puts a feeling of goodness and well-being, zist into our souls. Personally, I started watching this band when I was 16 (I'm 28 now), in my home town (and theirs), Portsmouth. I've followed them ever since. I watched other bands, sure, and I've been to more gigs than I care to recount of other bands. But when I go and see Level42 it's different. To me , they are a touch of my home town (I left when I was 19, and worked all over Europe), and a good memory of my formative years. Remove the chance to go and experience the band live, and you remove something beautiful. Kinda weird 'cos I'm not that usually die-hard about anything else. A Fan. ------------------------------ From: "Robert S. Kadel" Date: Tue, 4 Oct 1994 13:50:51 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: W.A. Richie's comment To W.A.

Can someone > confirm or deny? RCA have never stated any intention to release the album in the US, and now that the band's disbanding, they certainly have even less reason to. I suspect that if anyone is waiting for a US issue, they're going to be waiting for a long time -- blow the extra five bucks on the import, it's a good album. -- Lazlo (lazlo @ rt66.com)
