Subject: "Just a studio band", hah!
I just saw the Woodentops live last night (Paradise theatre, 10/29/86) and they were fantastic! They were tight, energetic, showed and incredible range of styles, and left me quite impressed. I think I like them live even better than I like their records, which I like quite alot... Go see them if you get a chance! XTC update : Send letter bombs to Geffen. 'Skylarking' was released in the UK last week. Geffen (a subsidiary of Warner Bros.) is holding off domestic release until DECEMBER FIRST! It is likely that they will be pressuring importers to keep the foriegn versions out of the country too, so that they can release an inferior package whenever they want and know that the fans will be forced to buy theirs. So much for free trade and the benefits of a competitive marketplace... (Disclaimer : the preceding call to violent action should not be taken as useful advice. It is merely the ranting of an incensed fan of XTC). Pissed off at American record companies, -Peter Fuligin%UMass.bitnet@WISCVM.WISC.EDU ----- "Why? Why? Why?" - The Woodentops
