THANK U ------------------------------ Subject: Updated Site From: "Lisa Devlin" Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 11:14:02 +0100 Hi everyone Hope all that went to Mike's shows had a good time. From the reviews it sounds like you all had a blast. I was so bloody fed up I couldn't go that I spent the whole weekend ripping down my site and starting again (sad isnt it, I really need to get out more). So anyway, go to www.starchild42.freeserve.co.uk and take a peek. There's a few new bits and pieces on there. I'll have the Sounds page up and running as soon as I can work out how to get my realaudio streaming instead of downloading........:) Dont forget to sign the guestbook! Cheers TCOY Lisa ICQ 14616970 ------------------------------ Subject: thank you Level 42 From: Jody Mann Date: Sun, 14 Mar 1999 11:52:45 -0800 Hey..I was just curious if I am the youngest digester here at 17 yrs old....I became addicted about 10 years ago with the release of RITF wich I still believe to be a masterpiece with my two favorite songs of all time..Children Say (listen to the keyboard at the end..i love that!) and Two Solitudes..(just a beautiful song..the most beautiful I've ever heard) I just want to thank Boon..Phil..Mike..Mark for their music..my memories..and absolutely beautiful music..i can't thank you enough..your music affects my life everyday..depending on what i feel like..i choose the song and it becomes a part of me..I just wish i could meet you..all of you..hear you live..anything to get closer to the music I love so much. Are there going to be any gigs during June..July..August..because I will have travel money and I have a dream of seeing any one of you live. I just want to say thank you..your music will be in my life forever..bringing happiness and good feelings (what life's all about!) Jody Mann ------------------------------ Subject: Be jealous From: Daniel James Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 07:28:00 -0700 (PDT) I was just pouring over some of the mementos from the last trip to the UK this winter and came across my ticket for the Shepherds Bush gig. My ticket number? 42, so there. ------------------------------ Subject: MK in Skanderborg...part deux - From: Annie Lysebjerg Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 16:33:35 +0200 Hey all, I got an even better idea than meeting Søren in the Crazy Tequila Bar! Why don't we all (those who are going) meet at the bar about 1 hour before the concert. This way we can be nuts together. Gimme' your thoughs on this!!! :-) Annie Lysebjerg "People sit and they worry about the future, doesn't realise that now is all there is" ------------------------------ Subject: Love is The Answer From: L.F.Green @ shu.ac.uk (Laurence F. GREEN) Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 15:55:22 +0100 I kid you not I have had Mike's song 'Love Is The Answer' on repeat for 2 hours - WOW this is astonishing, surely one of the all time greatest songs. Three cheers for MIKE hurrah - hurrah - hurrah what the heaven Hurrah LOZ 'The Machine Stops and It's Over' ------------------------------ Subject: Mike Lindup gig From: "Marcel Hoogervorst" Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 19:39:15 +0200 Hello everyone, I would like to say hello and thank you to everyone that I met at the Mike Lindup gig on thursday and fridaynight. It was the first time for me to visit a gig in England and I really enjoyed it. You were all very kind and I hope to see you all again in November in Birmingham. A special thank you to Nigel for arrangeing my ticket (Do they export that NewCastle beer also to Holland?), Christien and Alexandra for their company, Kim for traveling a long way and the owner of 'Wagons and Horses' for taking pictures. And of course a thank you to Mike and Gavin for two great shows. Did anyone record the show on tape, minidisc or video? Would it be possible to get a copy? Greetings, Marcel "What's that? A fire-alarm? So what?" ------------------------------ Subject: Definitive Biography From: Birdnig @ aol.com Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 16:12:19 EDT Hey MicroKiddies! I fell over an interesting URL for anyone still searching for The Definitive Biography should LOZ have sold out of his stock. http://www.uk.bol.com Use the search engine by typing Level 42 (no surprises there) and hey presto!

Silly things: The farther away in time from Jaco Pastorious death - the poorer sound quality of the live double cds from various venues with the same old songs yet again. Don't they ever run out of tapes to make cds from? Also, I picked up Incognito's Jazz Funk LP a few days ago. Sounded like EWF more than Level42 to me. Carl and Winston, keep those realvideos coming... They're great... Lars ------------------------------ Subject: Tired of Waiting From: FortunatoX @ aol.com Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 16:55:39 EDT .till the MK alblum hits the states.. ahem... ok bad joke.. but seriously folks, I have been listening to the above track and I could just swear I hear Annie singing in the background. Hope Mike gets his record deal. I hope he talks to 0(+>. The Artist has been helping out a lot of good artists who have been pushed around by the record companies. From what Ive heard they record at Paisley Park studios for free and the Artist won't hold onto the masters. The added bonus is that NPG records hits more record stores and at least gets a bit more airplay then other independants often do. Check out GCS2000 by Larry Graham to see what I mean. (My other favorite bassist.. nope.. no it would still have to be Mark King.) -Jonathon "In these alien years" ------------------------------ Subject: It's not my problem... Woo-hoo! From: "Gaetan Duperron" Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 14:30:26 PDT With no Mike Lindup or Mark King shows to go to way over (here!), I must resort to buying CDs by other artists (GASP!) in order to satisfy my musical cravings. So prepare yourselves babies, for a NON-LEVEL POST!!!!! (AAAAAUUUGH!!!!!!!!) What am I listening to lately, you ask? (Yeah, I know... Nobody asked, but if we let that stop us from posting whatever bullshit we liked, the daily digest would be pretty empty, wouldn't it?) 1) Tom Waits: Mule Variations. Tom is back!!! What's it been? 7 years? I had forgotten how much we need this guy! Still twisted, still brilliant. 2) David Sylvian: Dead Bees on a Cake. Another 80s shipwreck survivor. With Talvin Singh, Marc Ribot, Bill Frisell, and others. This one is easily as good as the collaboration with Robert Fripp and perhaps his best since Brilliant Trees. Now, _here's_ somebody who has really evolved with the times. He sounds as fresh today as he did 15 years ago. Bravo! 3) Los Amigos Invisibles: The New Sound of the Venezuelan Gozadera. I've mentioned these guys before. I implore you all, since I know you're all into the funk, CHECK THESE GUYS OUT!!! They record on Luaka Bop, David Byrne's WorldBeat label. Think Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Jamiroquai and great latin percussion. It's summer - perfect! Question to our English subscribers: I was dragged to the Robbie Williams show on Saturday evening. It was a fairly small club, but he managed to fill it (< 1000 people, I think), and everyone seemed to really be into it, except for me and the rest of us industry people (i.e. all the free tickets). This guy's popular, right? My question is, why? He acted like the perfect shit, had no voice, seemed uncommonly obsessed with his penis... The best part's of the evening were the covers of Hey Jude and Song 2. The rest was bollocks. Am I missing something?
