I'm a bit late on this (editing digests for archival reminded me) but
I definitely want to welcome Keith to gaffa/Love-Hounds!  Keith is
another BreakThrough person. Hi Keith! There are a few of us here.

Peter Morris (from Homeground)
Andy Marvick (his gaffa alter-ego IED wasn't around back then) :-)
|>oug Alan (who started Love-Hounds/rec.music.gaffa)
Lori in Columbus
Chris and I

(anyone I'm forgetting or don't know about?

BreakThrough was a short-lived but glorious Kate fanzine that was
published out of Winnipeg, Canada from 1983-1985(?).  It's crowning
achievment (besides letting a lot of American and Canadian Kate fans
know that they weren't alone out there) was the infamous "Bush-Con 84"
which was the very first Kate Bush fan convention in North America.

It's always nice to see old familiar names pop up!
