| Good that you made it Mikey! I saw the Groningen (NL) gig, which was way above expectations: excellent setlist (with a number of goldies), awesome crowd (but it's no news for Groningen) and fantastic venue. Too bad I didn't spot too many familiar faces (save for Rob and Willem who never seem to miss a shot). Did the guys eventually turn up at the back of the Osterpoort? I got "tired of waiting" and indeed Tuesday morning's wakeup at 6.15 didn't top my list of life's most amazing experiences. Cheers, mac PS: the other day I was thinking how a couple of live performances have turned "Sunbed song" from my least favourite to one of the songs I couldn't attend a gig without.

>Incidentally, a nod of appreciation to Pete
Willis for a write-up of his gig
which eschewed the standard "the guys were great, atmosphere was great, set list was great, what a great bunch of mad guys we all are too!" review and went some way towards trying to explain WHY it was such an enjoyable night for him.> hey no problem, happy to help
cheers

| Well, with AG's liner-note quality musings still fresh on the brain, I feel motivated to get me some of that Haircut 100. I assume some things are still in print, on a moldy oldies backwater label (Resurgence, perhaps?) You left out anything in the "where are they now" department. Have they disbanded? Did one of them die of a smack OD in Boy George's apartment? I've seen soooo much VH-1 it all sort of blends, you see. If they are still extant, then they'd be in their fifties, age-wise? Do they still have their hair? An odd site to see balding men playing as Haircut 100. Is their a Rogaine Remix? Yes, I am being silly. AG, please treat us with how they got their name - I don't remember anything in Douglas Adams dealing with Haircut 100. A very happy turkey holiday to you all, even in England! -Tom that infernal racket: my original music! mp3's at http://www.emeraldsoul.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
