I'm not holding my breath for strategy though. >And he wonders why I call him Laurence I just went on my stag weekender (Torquay) and just about everyone was calling me Laurence for just about the first time in my life. I am almost getting sued to it now. But Andy, you have got to work on your comedy extraction technique, it should have been: >Andy wonders why I call him Laurence!!!!!! Oh how they laughed. I must admit, I didn't even read the reply about Horoscopes. Suffice it to say, for the past thirty years, there has been on offer, by the James Randi educational foundation, a prize of 1.1 million US dollars, for any person who can do anything 'supernatural' under observed conditions. (many have tried) Any astrologer can go along and take the test. See 50 people, ask them any questions you like that don't pertain in any way to the time of their birth, and guess when they were born more accurately than chance, or alternatively predict, more accuartely than chance things that will happen to people. Thats all the best astrologers in the world have to do, and they can walk out with 1.1 million dollars. Suffice it to say no one is too keen to take up the offer. Imagine walking up to a busker and saying 'come and prove scientifically that you can busk, and I will give you 1.1 million US dollars'. I wonder what he would say? I wonder why astrologers don't take up the offer? Maybe they don;t have enough faith in their 'magic powers'! Predetermination, wishful thinking, placebo, etc yes Brian, I agree. www.skepdic.com. Did I mention Placebo on the digest? Oh no, that's worse than Status Quo. >After "Nothing More To Say" (thanks to John Mooney), >now after 20+ years, another rare live track surfaces >called "Morning Silence"! It was recorded in Gillingham, >Kent in '81. Thanks to Tony Tewes for, whose father Dave >Tewes recorded it and mixed it. I don't often swear, but this is certainly a 'f*** me' moment. This must be the mysterious 'Morning'. I did write to Radio 1 about this track, because Boon said they recorded it for an unreleased Radio 1 session. He thought it was called just 'Morning', I got a reply saying they had looked it before, and looked again but had no record of a Level 42 session, who cares now anyway? >I would never do that, with the obvious and justifiable exception of London. Yes, it's a 'maggot ridden cess pit' according to Alan Partridge and who am I to argue with that. Time to add to the deluge of 'I got my DVD' mails. If this 'Strategy Live' recording is decent, couldn't we actually give it to crockford and get him to do a proper job with it on his WFR label, instead of burning out digest ones. That way the boys will get what they're owed as well. If we're selling copies, can we make sure the boys get like, at least a couple of quid each for every copy sold?

My old man gave me two bits of advice when I was a sprog: Never eat anything you can't pronounce and never argue about anything you can't spell. He also said don't trust anyone who wears sunglasses indoors. Win, you've seen Parliament/Funkadelic live - that would have been gnikcuf awesome! Have you ever seen Maze, Tower Of Power or Earth Wind & Fire? Talking of music we enjoyed when we were slim-hipped youths capable of drinking 10 pints without a single visit to the bog and following up with a Ruby Murray that would set your arse on fire later that night .... who listened to Morrissey Mullen, Slipstream, Beggar & Co, Light Of The World? Does anyone know whatever happened to Smiley Culture of Police Officer and Cockney Translation fame? Does anyone in the UK know if the album Fabrique by Fashion is available on CD? Does anyone remember a band called Level something or other (just threw that in as a test to see if you were concentrating!) Seems to me there's a few 'gesters in Oz these days (me, RJ, Jeff, Tim, Nigel) but where's Spaldo these days? I was watching Big Brother tonight and I think they should change the rules: If someone annoys you a bit, then you should be able to vote them off. That's fine. However, if they really get on your tits over an extended period, you should be able to vote to drown them in the swimming pool then dance around doing Red Indian noises. Same deal with The Weakest Link - as you do the Walk of Shame, you should have the option of turning around, selecting the person who made the worst comment about you and kicking them square in the arse. Level 42 content - have they supported anyone on tour apart from old pointy-tits? Don't worry - I've finished now.

I recorded a song for it. It was supposed to be half digesters and half established acts. I'm sure he will contact you to tell you more about it and get you involved, right Morgan? Andrew, I am throwing down the gauntlet: show your face in NYC one day and you will never want to go back to London again. It is fantastic here these days, I must say. With the notable exception of the day of the Puerto Rican Day parade, which was a week ago. The Seinfeld episode is completely true - I live very close to the parade route and I basically have to leave my house for at least six hours to escape the madness. At any rate, come on down!

The video CD was awkward as you can't watch it in one go unless I am missing something, but the DVD is great! As an aside, I bought the Incognito CD "Life, Stranger Than Fiction". It's great and funky! Also, I got the Bond CD - nice, fit (and talented musically!) ladies and not a CD of James Bond theme tunes! Pretty relaxing stuff after revision for my finals. Very moving too!

Some of us pony up the dosh for the ticket so we can listen to the musicians on stage, not the off-key howlings of the audience. *********** >From: "Brian Flint" > >Then, if you look atall the teen bopper wantabe >wicans, they do all sorts of candle burning, chanting, making imaginary >circles in the nude, Now you're talkin' my language!

Okay, okay! I apologize for Brian Adams, but only for everything he did after _So Far So Good_. At least he writes his own stuff.

Funny teaser trailer (not the full trailer mind you, just the teaser which BTW featured a kick ass version of Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks"), but a very crappy movie.
