How DARE you cut down BB just after I toasted my credit card buying a
new copy of the movie???

Yep, Howard the Duck was much campier. But it was OBVIOUSLY campy...
self-consciously campy. What's so great about BB is that the actors
performed with such grace that it comes off much more smoothly. And
with a lot less smirks.

The most recent "Fiddle Fever" album, release in 1991, has it. There is also a

There's wasn't much news about L.W., but I thought the monologue was one of
GK's best.  I was about how Florian and Myrtle Krebsbach went to visit their
son Wesley in Pomona because they had an argument back in January that didn't
go the way it was supposed to.  (To "How come it is that we never go any place
any more?" Florian replied "Ok, we'll go, just name the place, we'll go.")
So they went even though it was already time to work on the garden (I think)
and they were scared, being away from home, even too scared to fight.  I found
it rather touching.

Thought the whole show was rather good, too, with a great New Orleans jazz
clarinetist, a bit on old-time LA-area cults (safer than talking about any
current ones, and interesting for history too), and (on the radio theater
segment) a nice "getting in touch with the inner child" drama.

Nope. It doesn't work.  On my drives to Chicago from C-U we could get 
WILL all the way to about 40 miles from Chicago, and WBEZ was largely
unintelligible until practically inside city limits.  Rather frustrating
when you can hear the show while driving and then it fades out somewhere

Garrison Keillor announced on Saturday's ARC (a good show, I thought)
that this Friday, April 10th, PBS will show "Lake Wobegon Spring Weekend"
at 9 PM.  This must be the third of the three TV specials someone mentioned
he was doing this season.  (The others have been ok, worth watching but not
wonderful, to my mind.)

Also, for those of us in the NY area, GK is doing some sort of program on
Sunday, May 31st, at the Museum of Television and Radio (25 West 52nd Street,
NYC  10019, 212/621-6600), from 2:00 to 3:30 pm.  I think it's a performance
(that's what the description said, but it was on the order form and I don't
have it any more).  Any way, I'm going.  Tickets are $25, $20 for museum
members, $1 handling charge, and they're available at a surcharge through
one of the ticket services.

P.S. Emmanual Transmission is back!

WILL-fm *used* to carry PHC, but dropped Garrison when his new show
became too expensive.  I don't think there is any way of hearing
GK in the CU area.  :-(

Check out WEFT (90.1fm).  They're the local community radio station
(not to be confused with public radio), and they play a lot of
alternative music -- jazz, folk, rock, ethnic, blues, new age,
experimental....  While they don't carry GK, they do have *a lot* more
variety than WILL, including radio dramas.  And what's more, you can
take their training class and become one of their dj's!

If anyone else sent in a priority ticket order for the American Radio Company
show at BAM on May 30th--it's a tribute to Walt Whitman, with Robert Bly--and
is wondering where their tickets are, the BAM box office says they're only
now being processed because the box office just got the tickets.

If you haven't already ordered, they go on public sale this Wednesday through
TicketMaster (212/307-4100 -- there is a service charge), the BAM box office,
and the West Side Ticket Agency at 251 West 45th Street in Manhattan.  Prices
are $25 for orchestra and front mezzanine, $20 for rear mezzanine.

I don't know of any recordings they've made as a duo (though they
have played together for years and are married), but each has recorded
extensively. Off the top of my head I can think of: Jay's several
albums with Fiddle Fever, and one with Lynn Hardy; Molly's album
with Blue Rose.   They tend to play backup on other people's albums a
lot, too.

Yes - it's on one of the Fiddle Fever albums.

There have been editorials in the San Francisco Chronicle, the San

There is a review of the Pertwee Years video in DWM 186.  The 
general opinion of the review is that it wasn't worth it.  The
tape includes the following clips:

Test footage for the aborted title sequence from Season Seven,
which is reportedly interesting to see.
Material from Longleat which is pointless, as is the clip from
the Five Doctors.

Also 3 complete episodes are shown (as on the Hartnell and
Troughton tapes).  The choice of these is disappointing.

An episode from Frontier in Space (I don't know which).
The last (7th?) episode of Inferno.
An episode from The Daemons (again, I don't know which).

As all these shows exist as complete stories and (except for 
possibly The Daemons (I don't know if BBC shows black & white
stuff in Britain), can all be seen elsewhere.  Why not put on
the first (black & white) episode of Invasion of the Dinosaurs?
Why not do something similar to the Tom Baker Years video, where
clips of each story are shown?  Seems rather pointless to show
these complete episodes.

Interestingly, it was also noted that in the first week after its 
release, The Pertwee Years had sold 13,000 copies and the BBC was 
in the process of producing more copies to meet demand...

another article with a lame subject floating around: "question". Oooh, how

Appearing in NUMEROUS sci-fi TV programs AND MOVIES narrows the field quite a
bit.  I don't think that Paul fits this billing.

In fact I can only think of two people who do.  Either they've asked Jon
Pertwee to resume the role, or it's Brian Blessed.  (Hmmm.  The regeneration

I know he had a role in Blackadder; I'm sure there are people on this

More recently, he was Kevin Costner's father in Robin Hood: Prince of

Brian Blessed also played Herakles in The Aphrodite Inheritance and the
