Speaking of Sakamoto I met someone who saw him in London the other week and
no one other than David Sylvian appeared on stage at the encore.........
AAAAAAARGH!!! 
Anyway this guy writes to old Dave the rave and the Ember Glances installation
due out soon will be a CD/Book, or CD & video..

Also anyone wondering what Sylvian's polaroid collages are like, well they're
pretty similar to David Hockney's recent work - originals are available at
a mere 350-500 pounds....
