KATEMAS SAN DIEGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rhill@netrun.uu.nix.com (ronald hill)]

        Well, it was here and gone!  We had several people.  Me, Ray 
Russell, Jackie and Adam, and Patrick M.  The highlight was listening 
to a few new Kate songs plus watching "Moments of Pleasure" and Rocket 
Man and Wogan Rocket Man (which were new to most of us).  It was great 
to share in seeing/hearing Kate stuff for the first time in a group 
situation.  Then we had a Kate Kake and watched (barely) The Red Shoes 
and an annimated version.  It wasn't very compelling on first watch, 
so I have a feeling it's something that requires some study.  My 
immeadiate impression is that it may have drawn Kate due to the 
conflict in the film of having artistic aspirations VS the reality of 
trying to bring those out in the cold world, though we really didn't 
watch closely enough to say.  

        We're hoping to have either a party a few weeks AFTER the album 
OR a "First listen" party on the night that it comes out so that we can 
share listining together, which, again, was a very nice experience.  

        So Happy Katemas everyone and thanks to all that were involved 
with the video for getting it to us!  I hope someday we'll see a single 
video with all the "Very best" of Kate Bush performances, simuluar to 
the tape that distributed but also with Saturday Night Live, the "Mrs' 
. Mopp" and Babooshka, Under The Ivy, Wogan Experiment IV, and a few 
others, all in the very best quality!  :-)  

         Anyways!  Happy Katemas Kate and everyone else!
