To all you Doors fans out there..

I just came across a few titles of Doors CDs in a CD list. I have never heard of these. Does anyone know what's on these albums and whether they are available in the USA.

	REM's is good, but the songs are all the same speed and beat.
I had always enjoyed REM because they could make you change attitude
in the middle of the album, but this one failed in doing so.
	Again, it is a good album, and I stood in line for quite a
long time to get it when it arrived here.  (Easy way of saving 5
bucks, though!

No flame, but I think you are mistaken as to her point.  Sinead has been
outspoken in her attacks on the Catholic church and its leader. This was
not a generalized message, as you say.  Rather it was extremely pointed,
as it was directed towards a specific person and the group he represents.
And, speaking from the heartland of conservative middle America, I can assure
you that NOT "everyone is familiar with her religious beliefs."  Indeed, I
would wager that very few people over the age of 30 even know who Sinead is
(short of "that bald female singer who didn't want the national anthem played
before her concerts").  Her actions were meant to shock viewers, and in that,
she succeeded.  I find it sad, however, that she chose to promote her own
religious and political agenda instead of her talent as a singer.

I just finished listening to the new REM also - pretty cool. 
Especially "Try Not to Breathe" and the little mimic of "The Lion
Sleeps Tonight" in "The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite".  

A lot more keyboard than I expected, but great nonetheless.

Somebody mentioned it was done by the London Boys...

  Check your facts, bud.  "Cabo Wabo" is the name of VH's bar in Cabo San
Lucas that has live music.

  When I saw them on the Hysteria tour, prior to the show I was watching the
goings on around the stage, wondering how the band planned on getting out onto
the stage, or if they might already be out there under it.  I noticed some of the
crew pushing these LARGE canvas covered wheeled "baskets" towards the stage,
which I figured contained more equipment.  From where I was sitting, I was able
to watch them push the baskets under the stage, and open them up.  One or 2 of
the band members came jumping out of each basket.  Looked like a pretty cramped
trip to me, but heh, it worked!

  I was watching for the same thing on this tour.  Sure enough, about show time,
they started pushing the same big canvas baskets out to the stage.  As they
pushed them out, they appeared pretty heavy.  They pushed them under the edge of
the stage, and then back out in seconds.  They seemed surprisingly light when
they were pushed back out!  :-)

  They did raise a curtain and darken the arena as the show started, to let the
band take their places up on the stage.
