fanzine drivel (drrroooooool)

[Hofmann@AMSAA.ARPA]

Well, how about that!  That "handsome cabin boy" is a rewrite of Jack O' Roe (listed
in the album by the Dead as Trad.) ... the whole theme of the woman posing as
a boy seems to be a retread from the fabled Cloudbusting appearance by the K.  But
has she been listening to the dead now too?

On to something else and that something else is this problem, albeit overblown,
with the independent record promoters.  Just so there is no confusion, independent
record promoters have little to do with independent record companies or artists.
They are basically "hires" in various regional areas by the major labels and
I'm sure by the indies to run from station to station and promote songs usually
on AOR.  This problem some grand jury in New York is investigating has to
do with some of them offering untouched kneecaps in return for airplay and has
strong organized crime overtones ... well, I wonder if EMI hired anyone to promote
Kate's music....

Second - too bad Sue, I heard a phone interview with Brix on WCVT and she sounded
really nice... her Californiaisms don't even show through and at times she sounded
English.  The interviewer had some really good questions for her, so you might
want to try and get a hold of the tape now that you are good buddies with him.
