The airport came first...the song is a reference to the airport. Many airports have strange letters, but I have to admit there see to me numerous less obvious ones in Canada than anywhere else I know of.

Well, I've been listening to the album my whole life, and have always been a huge fan of The Point. The ironic thing is that the band didn't know this (I don't think, I never told them) but a major event in my life ended up being based on it. I was pretty gosh darn cool for me.

Personally I have to say I have been totally put of by his attitude. He basically came off sounding like he thought he was the most talented and intelligent individual in the world and that "he" *was* the band, and if you didn't "get" what he was saying that's your problem. I also remember him commenting that he doesn't give a something or other as to whether people like it (the new CD) or not. This isn't the first time I have been put off by his/their attitude though. When they toured the UK (1992/93 i think)for the first time, no one had a clue who they were. They played Rock City in Nottingham, the city's largest Bar venue, to a house of about 125 people (it holds almost 1,000). The tickets were pricey, the show was lethargic and after the show I asked the sound guy if they would come out front and sign autograhps. His comment to me was something like..they don't do stuff like that, they are big stars in thier own country. pfffft I say! Stuff 'em. I saw the Indigo Girls, Spin Doctors and Saw Doctors all in the same venue...they all came out.

I will send videos and pay for postage. Unfortunately Ross, it can't be you cause PAL does me no good. I already have RD series 1-5 on PAL and can't watch them, as well as all the Black Adder's, Young Ones, Murder Most Horrid, AbFab and Bottom. :( I am keeping them in the hope that one day I will be able to buy a universal system VCR.

NO!!!! I don't care about the space that it takes up. I care because my computer at work has "issues" with those CDs and won't let me listen to them. This troubles me greatly. (If anyone wants details, I'll send a more technical reason as to why.) I like Katie's suggestion to put the KoS remix as a hidden track on the CD. :) - -- chad at radix dot net ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 14 Mar 1999 04:14:45 GMT From: jkpolk@ntplx.net (Andrea Krause) Subject: My little Frmoment My Frümoment du jour....Went to see Tanglefoot tonight (great Canadian band, I highly recommend them) and they did a song with the probable title of "When the bass players take over the world." (The setlist said Low End Megalomaniac, but all the other titles were unreal so that probably isn't it.) It was a totally cool and funny song, and it led me to visions of Murray staging a coup and taking control of Moxy. :) Complete with evil grin.
