Well it hasn't even 24 hours since I have posted my first thing on the Net,
and  I have already been bombarded with responses to the wonderful tape I
have.  I'm sorry to dissapoint(however you spell it) some of you, but there
is no way in hell that I am going to be able to distribute this tape very
effectively.  I guess some of you will just have to be patient and wait untill
I send it to some people and then get a copy from them.  Does any one else
have a copy????????????????  Well enough of that.  Hey I got Bloomsburg tix
today.  ALRIGHT
T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  hope to see some of you there.  Maybe
we can some how work out some tape trading there of the 'TAPE".  That will
make it a whole lot easier on me.  So let me know and I'll try to help you
out as best as I can.

To all you elitist net people out there:

 	Hey man, I think I'm entitled to a little respect from you pseudo-
worshipping foolish doggies.  I consider myself a true Phish fan, and I happen 
to think that the phishnet (or however you weirdos spell it) is an almost
pointless organization. What makes you so superior? Do you doggies rock any
harder during Weekapaug? Do you yell out the Simpsons signal louder than I do?
I think not. I'm sure that a lot of you people are nice people, but I'm feeling
left out, and it's just not fair!!!! Are you the Phish elite? Are you more en
aware of some Phishy aura or special vibe that I'm just not aware of? I don't t
think so! I think you're all crazy!  I love Phish, god damnit! I'm not going
to feel inferior anymore! I'll see all you freakazoids at the next show! And
I'll probably enjoy it more, because I know how to have fun, and I don't 
consider fun spending an evening alone in front of my computer, typing away
pointlessly at a dream that will never come true. Prepare yourself, netters.

The Rebellion has begun.

Re: OverLand

I was lucky enough to catch OverLand over the weekend.  For those of
you locals here in the SF Peninsula, this was the band that played
a rockin' couple of sets at a party for Phish after last April's
Stanford gig.  I was impressed that they have added a bunch of new
songs to their repetoire. Some highlights for me were The Feels Like
a Stranger opener (with apologies to Joel), On Fire in the first
set...Strange Thing just smoked to open the second set and Musky
Shuffle to close that set was also a real crowd-pleaser.  Fun to
hear Jack O' Row added to the song roster as one of the encores.  I
think OverLand played about 15 songs (7/8) with a 4-song encore.
Hope y'all get a chance to see this band someday :^)

I think the "getting hit by a limo" story originated a few months ago.
There was a story on one of the tabloid shows (A Current Affair or Hard
Copy, can't remember which) that Roger Daltrey of the Who accidently struck
a young man while riding in his limo (in New York, I think). It turned out
that this young man was a musician named FISH, and gave Daltrey a cassette
of his music. Daltrey listened to it, was impressed, and was quoted as
saying he would try to get the young man a record contract. This happened
last fall sometime.

The incident sticks in my mind because there was a rumor that this was how
the group Marillion originated (Fish is the former lead singer of Marillion).
So it is a different Fish, not the Fish of Marillion or the Fish of Phish.

Earlier I said "*never* send a DBX tape to somebody if they don't have

and not use DBX on the recording deck.

Unfortunately, Jay's entire post is INCORRECT and is based on myths.
All cassette decks made today have heads that are made of materials
that are not affected by metal tapes any more than they are by Type II
tapes.

Also, no tape deck manufacturer would specify tape head life in years.
It is specified in thousands of hours.  You can expect between 3,000
and 10,000 hours from your tape heads (if properly cared for) before
you start getting frequency response errors.

My apologies to anyone who senses bad vibes in my post.  But it really
drives me crazy to see hundreds of tapers led astray with incorrect
information.

In all fairness to our new President Mr. Terminal whiteboy, the clip I saw
on the news showed him on stage with Joe Henderson -- even if his own
sax playing is, shall we say, rhythmically different.

Evan Parker is probably one of the few musicians who could really do

A few: romantic yet restrained types like Johnny Hartman, Nat Cole,

I think Madeleine Eastman does some nice things, as does Kitty

Of course, one's taste in singers is always incredibly personal.

Lord, yes! Although there are those quirky, interesting player
like Sonny Fortune, who have oddball sounds that somehow work
for them. But my observation is that they don't always age well.

Again, I confess to being completely crabby on the subject. And I'm
