| > Hey Jay, does that make me a true fan or just > stupid? Wait, never mind. I think I just answered my > own question. Trent, if my diagnosis is so important to you, I would have to say, since you have no "possessions" (i.e. clutter), like the original mailing invoice from when you bought the CDs, or the sticker that was on the front that stated "nice price," or cigarette butts once possibly inhaled upon by any band member, that you, seemingly, are safely *not* a "true fan" (congratulations). Sadly, you just had to deal with the times. As you say, pre-boom of the internet, CD-Rs, eBay and the like. So, sometimes if one wants something, one has to pay up. Hell, I just forked up a fat wad o' francs the other night for a stack of asparagus. Thankfully, I enjoyed them and felt that 'I got what I paid for'. Unfortunately your sonic purchase didn't turn out that way. On behalf of MK, I apologise to you that you were not suitably satisfied. j(ay) whose "my most prized possession" will be AG's aforementioned, now used, Level42 Sick Bag. (come on, AG, I gotta have it! What's your price? And please, when autographing the bag note what the contents are, I mean were (pre-mastication) and approximately what the digestion time was). I am on my way to becoming the happiest Level42 nutter, um..."fan" EVER! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

re: faves, other
than the barf bag (I've got one too, AG), I'd have to say that my favorite Level
42
items are
Digest-related... pins, t-shirts, CD's (AYGB), and much Levelfest stuff
(Funky Bus
mousepad,
etc.) And in particular, my 29th birthday card signed by many fellow
Digesters in 1999:
Sorry for the
non-sarcasm... or perhaps there's a hidden jibe in there
somewhere... ;)
cheers
folks
Eric

| Yesterday I made the assumption that I was the only Level 42 fan in the great state of Iowa. I was incorrect and hereby eat my words. Got any ketchup? I received two e-mails from fellow Iowans. Thanks for the dialog fellows and I hope we can get together sometime. Trent |
