Hi, I tried getting onto the love-hounds list a week ago and got a message back saying that the server was not responding. Someone mentioned in this group that the address has changed as of October, but I was using the address I found in the FAQ that was posted to this group just last week. Needless to say, I'm confused. So how do I get on this list? And is there a digest form?

(Note: For those wondering, "Major" pages have significant content, while "Minor" pages are specifically about one topic, usually on just one page. That is not to say the Minor pages are in any way inferior to the Major pages - some of the best Kate pages are the minor ones - it's just that they simply aren't as big). Anyway, this site started out as just a handful of scanned images, but has grown into a beautiful resource. All of the album covers are wonderfully scanned, plus some digitized songs (all taken - with credit given - from the Kate Bush Musical Extraveganza), lyrics (including a VERY small number of non "official" album lyrics), this is a must-see stop for all KateFans. Also it has lotsa links to other Kate resources, including one I didn't know about! To top it all off, there is a LARGE number of jpeg's ftp-able directly from here (thumbnails or an image index file would be nice, but it's still top-notch without it). Warning to Yanks: This site's in Australia, so it's often VERY slow.

As [stev0@zuni.chaco.com (stev0)] says.. yes .. My web page IS out of date.. and has crazy links.. and yes it is poor.. its all true ! :( I still intend on it being THE web page for Kate Fans across the Internet.. I have had little support - most of it my fault unfortunately, I would like to gather input from people on what they would like to see on it and I WILL start implementing it. I have invested big bucks in computer hardware ( HP color scanner Gigs of disk space - etc etc. and possibly a digital camera to come soon.) to put towards this site - it would be cool if people could photocopy the CD covers of their rare CD's so I could scan them in for people to make a complete DISCOGRAPHY web page for example. I would like to see some constructive criticism so I can make the pages a testimony to all the true Kate fans out there. ** Direct all ideas for what YOU would like to see on the w web pages to r.frost @ adl.dmt.csiro.au Note that I have changed jobs and this is my old address - I will be purchasing a personal internet account soon and I will quote that email address as soon as I can.

Hmmm. I can't hear a real Steely Dan simmilarity here, but I'm not an expert. What I'm really interested in is, which songs did she wrote before and which after her mother's death. This seems to be one of the greatest, if not THE greatest break in her life and it might be interesting to know which songs have been created after this traumatic experience. Though she wrote "Alive and kicking", I'm not completely sure about this. At least not around 1993/94. But time is a great healer. I hope for her.

My first step to become a knowledgeable fan: German HiFi magazine Audio had Kate Bush among their "midprice tips" in issue 1/96: "The Dreaming" wasn't one of her hit albums, but in songs like "Suspended In Gaffa" she demonstrated impressively, how modern music should sound to delight head, belly and feet.

She had heard that the emailaddress has changed since october. As you guys might know I have been trying to get off this mailinglist for 6 weeks now. Surprise! I haven't succeeded to get off, no, you're kidding me. Bill, just one tip (if you are out there). I have seen on other mailinglists that they put a little header at the top of the digest version how to unsubscribe. Well, it might be handy to do that for people who want to unsubscribe and you change the emailaddress on them. How else are they going to find out? So, please, please, please, with sugar and a cherry on top, can SOMEONE (HELLOOOOOO) out there tell me HOW I get off this list. And please do so by emailing me at pruijn@cclink.ivv.nasa.gov, because I am not reading the mailinglist anymore.(you know why, I don't want to be on this list anymore, that's why I don't read it.) Barbara FYI, I have tried Bill Wisner, root, postmaster, majordomo, majordomo-owner, this list directly and the normal way(ofcourse this was my first 3 attempts) and guess what, nobody is helping me out here. And you know what is really ironically, somewhere in time (20 dec 95) I received an automated message from majordomo informing me that I was NOT on the list. Well, let me tell you , when I am getting mail from this list each day, I am DEFINITELY, ABSOLUTELY AND POSITIVELY on this list.
