        It's about time! It's been awhile since the last one.

        Since Adrian is playing guitar for Bowie on his tour, maybe we'll
        get to see some of these songs (Please!!)

        Yes -- he played _Heartbeat_ at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz last 
        time he was there. He opened the show with _Three of a Perfect
        Pair_, and played _Thela Hun Gingeet_ (also King Crimson songs).

        He covered _Pretty Woman_ as an encore.

        It was an *amazing* show.

        Yes, but nothing is the League :-)

        Never, ever miss an Adrian Belew show.

        Has anybody heard anything about Fripp & Fripp? Bob was supposed
        to be starting a new band with Toyah Wilcox and a member of the
        LoCG (playing Chapman Stick!!), but I haven't heard much about this.

        Regarding Danielle Dax, yes, she is on _The League of Gentlemen_
        (the liner notes say "Hamsprachtmuzic on _Minor Man_ by Danielle
        Dax, courtesy of the Lemon Kittens").

        Somebody asked if _Lone Rhino_ is available on CD... well, I can't
        find it, and I've looked a long time... I am willing to pay mucho
        dinero for a copy of _Lone Rhino_ on CD... don't get me started!
