1. Return of the handsome rugged man

Hi Thanks to the chap who responded to my email, sorry I didn’t catch your name, before inadvertently deleting. So, ‘Return of the handsome rugged man’ live. Is it true, that such a stonking track has never performed in front of a live audience? Does this mean that I will never blag a copy from a fellow fan? This is terrible news! I reckon that the people on this digest who have any persuasive powers, should use them to convince the up and coming tour of L42, to play this mighty tune, before I get too old and start saying things like, “just sounds like a load of noise, there’s no melody, too loud, it’ not like the music of my day”. Now that would be a tragedy. 41 and still 42ing Cheer all David

Wow, I am sitting here with tears in my eyes and with a surprising amount of emotion welling up in me. I've just read the last of the original digests, #265 and after all the pleas and entreaties to save the digest....well its gone. But, I am happy to report that unlike The Dead Media Digest which I am still a subscriber of and which hasn't sent anything since 2002 I am able to look forward to a new digest. Long may the digest live. Again, thanks Eric for being such a trouper..... Doug

Hey, the Digest (now 12.5 years old!) really has its own life at this point. I might be a caretaker of sorts, but the folks that subscribe and continue to read/post after all these years are the ones that keep it going... and I'll keep the light on so long as this continues. The least I can do is provide a home and a few bits of bandwidth. :) Anyways, back to our intermittently scheduled blip of conflict... cheers Eric
