thanks for the tip steve. one of these days we'll have a tribute cd similar 
to one of his shows rather than this blandishment. i want 'Pedro the 
Fisherman' sitting next to 'A Shield For Your Eyes...', Shitmat and Stella 
Chiwesha... 

yes, i'm back. haven't posted since 1999. joined the list when it was first 
mentioned and then lost job and associated internet access about 3 months 
later... the last couple of weeks, what with the book and radio shows (and 
mr domestic empire) prompted me too look it up again. hello. 

peel box documentary was nice. hadn't seen those wedding footage clips 
before, the best man chasing the (four-legged) bridesmaid around the grass, 
sheila looking radiant, rod talking to the aunt. and sheila in a vaults 
t-shirt (book says john had planned to wear one when they got to macchu 
picchu to give them a bit of publicity). Sounds Of The Suburbs repeat 
anyone?
