I certainly know why Vishal Markandy writes: >>Folks, this Happy stuff is getting to be sickening. I am tired of wading >>through endless streams of Happy posts to find the occassional Kate article. >>While I have always appreciated reading about artists other than Kate on >>Gaffa, and consider Gaffa an important source of information for expanding >>my musical tastes, this barrage of Happy related material is a bit much. (I agree 110%!) Steve VanDevender replies to Vishal: >>Let's face it, there are a lot more interesting things to say >>about Happy Rhodes right now than there are to say about Kate. >>There may be an impending Kate album, and an even impending tour >>(SeKond Koming indeed!) but there is little more than the >>rehashing of old arguments and occasional rumors of what is to >>come. So some of us are choosing to use this forum for its >>long-agreed-upon secondary purpose of discussing other >>alternative musicians. More interesting things to say about Happy then KaTe???? Well then I strongly suggest your in the wrong newsgroup! I DON'T care about Happy and I'm getting *SICK* of having Happy info clutter my screen every time I come up here to read and ask questions about KaTe! I have been a KaTe fan since '78 and have never ran out of interesting things to talk about concerning KaTe. I have seen LOTS of Kate related questions go unanswere here in this newsgroup in the past few mounts and yet I have seen no shortage of Happy info. Frankly right now you could not _give_ me a Happy record or CD! Vishal go on to say: >Those of you who want to talk about Happy, please consider setting up a >mailing list or forming a separate news group. Spare the rest of us. (Again I agree 110%!) Steve replys: >_If_ it turns out that discussion of Happy Rhodes really starts >to overwhelm the group, _then_ it may be necessary to split off a >new mailing list. Well Steve if it has not reach that point by now when will it??? Every time I call rec.music.gaffa I'm bombarded with h.r. info! Do it now! Pretty please??? Steve adds: >Frankly, I'd rather see discussion of Happy Rhodes (and not just >because I'm a fan) than IED and Drukman slugging it out over some >other bit of rehashed Kate trivia. No disrepeKT to the goddess >that is Kate Bush, but I think even She would not want us to dote >so ceaselessly upon her and her music. Frankly I think you may be in the wrong newsgroup! This _IS_ after all rec.music.gaffa! _*NOT*_ rec.music.happy. If you don't call whats been going on here concerning Happy "doting" I don't know what the hell you can call it. Oh by the way every one is welcome for the *KaTe Bush* gifs there are more to come. Thanks Richard for getting them up and available :-) Ken SaintJohn Ken.Saintjohn@bbs.oit.unc.edu "I think quotes are very dangerous things!" KaTe Bush...
