| Ok, now the webdigest is closed for a few days I will update some people about the festival. Hmmm, what can I say, I had a great time although the sound wasn't too well and the band had a few problems aspecially Nathan, Sean and Lyndon. I think something went wrong with Sean's microphone and Nathan had problems with getting his guitarsound out of the boxes. But the guys only had a little time to do their soundcheck. The sound was too loud all evening. Level 42 came on stage after 1 o'clock wich was 1 hour later then they suppost too. Gary was amasing like always and had a drums, all the guys where great. The setlist was the same as last tour 02 - started with almost there, but to be with you again, seven days, hot water and the chinese way where left out. Mark ended this gig with Mr pink, wich was great ofcourse. Some people where throwing with beer and half a pint ended on some other people wich gave some funny reactions. But I must say I had a really great time and it was nice to see the band again. ____________________________________________________________ Get advanced SPAM filtering on Webmail or POP Mail ...

Terry Arnett > So, in essence, there are times when two drummers > working together CAN work. Excellent examples, Terry. Yes, clearly 2 drummers can work well together. Be it gits like Tommy Lee (who could probably use some assistance), to proven vets like Chester Thompson, who could blow Phil Collins away, if need be (has PC recorded a decent drum track since Brand X?). And outstanding job with taking it back to the old drum-duel days; essential history in the lore of hittin' the skins. j __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!

| ian > I don't think Mark will use songs he has already > used on Trash under the name of Level42 (though to > be honest, some of them are good enough to do so) >If I were MK and had > all this material sat in a cupboard somewhere, I > would use some of it, the question is... will he? This raises, albeit highly hypothetical, some interesting ponderings. _IF_ MK is to pursue a studio recording under the banner of L42, without the inclusion of ML, let alone 'the twins'...what will it be like (?). Judging on solo MK is a bit different since there is a span of 15-ish years between the first and then the later 2, both of which are quite different from each other. With the L42 name, will MK (etc) try to stick to the mold of the past; extended harmonys/backing vocals (usually provided by Mr. Lindup), keyboard lines that quite often mimic the bass line (sadly), minimal (if any) guitar solos. etc. It's kinda dangerous either way -alienate fans who have no ability to change and expect, basically, the same slop over and over, or - have very subpar backing vocals with not great key playing. So, speculation throws it all back to the more probable situation: there wont be any new album... ...unless after a year or so of Newlywedness ML gets tired of it and needs something to do and MK, at this point finishing up "The Collection Tour" decides (since we still are uncertain who is the chief behind all these power-games) that things are a bit (understatement) mo' betta' with ML. etc, j __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

| Greetings everyone, My name is James Sutton, a digest member since 1997. As of the past couple of years I've been more of a lurker than anything else. But I do like to keep up with both the Digest and the Web Digest as much as possible. Over a year ago I opened level42forum.com, another discussion board dedicated to Level 42 and related topics. I was (and still am) very frustrated with the grade school antics of a few of the Web Digest members. People that seem to think the internet is different from real life and are free to insult and disrespect people from behind their keyboard. So rather than complain about it, I decided to start my own forum and run a much "tighter ship". After a month or two of having it up, I had to take both my Level 42 and Rush forums down due to personal reasons and a lack of time to maintain them properly. Well now that life is a lot better for me and my relocation to Baltimore, MD is over, I've decided to give it another go. (I'd like to mention that my Rush forum has been such a pleasure recently. The active members for the most part are nothing but mature, intelligent people celebrating Rush. It's a rare occasion that I ever have to delete a post, ban a member or give somebody the "grow up or else" warning. It has proved to me that there are actually people out there who know how to use the internet! Go figure.) If you decide you'd like to sign up, the URL is still http://www.level42forum.com I'd like to point some things out right up front... Please read the agreement letter carefully when you register. There are three of the ten "rules" I want to stress: #1. Tact and common sense should be used at all times, #2. Please keep the idea of "quality over quantity" in mind when posting, and #7. Keep the thread topic in mind when posting. I'm a nice guy until I have reason to not be. I'm using the the Perl version of YaBB so most of you Web Digest members will feel pretty comfortable with how the forum works. In regards to avatars, you're welcome to use one of the album covers I have available in the profile settings or you can email me your image and I'll set it up for you. I did not put this forum up to step on any toes. I know that Dan is dealing with serving the Web Digest from his home and I know first hand what a pain in the butt that can be. So you can view my forum as just an alternative, not a replacement. I appreciate your time and please email me privately at james @ jamesrsutton.com if you have any questions or comments regarding the forum, James -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . | ||
