]I checked into this news group a month ago to see what kind of
]progressive music discussion was discussed here.  All I found was talk
]of Kate Bush's new album.  I figured, "No problem, I'll check in
]later." So I did and I still find Kate Bush babble.  Aren't you guys
]taking the description (ie: Kate Bush, etc.) a little literally?  I
]mean, Kate Bush is good, but does she really deserve to have a whole
]newsgroup dedicated to her? 

Actually, if you look closely there is discussion going on other
topics besides Kate Bush: other "alternative" female artists such
as Jane Siberry, Sinead O'Connor, Enya and so on.  I actually
like the name of the newsgroup, since I think it encourages discussion
of women artists, while the other newsgroups concentrate on
interminable discussions on Pink Floyd and Rush.
Any k.d. lang fans out there?
Also, anybody secretly believe that Michelle Shocked and k.d. lang
were "separated at birth" (copyright Spy magazine)?


Went to the Pixies concert here in Chapel Hill last night.  Walked
out around the middle of the show, couldn't get into it - mostly
because of the crowd, who were loud and drunk and obviously not
there to listen to the music.
