Sadly, the first 2 releases do not have lyrics enclosed. So, you must 
listen many times to get all of the words right. I checked in the 
'Phonolog' at the local Wherehouse record store and only found
_Girlfriend_ listed for Matthew Sweet. I had found the other 2 albums at
used record stores. 

On _Earth_ there are guest appearances by most of Trip Shakespeare
and also Kate Pierson.

According to the linear notes on _Girlfriend_ - fan club info can be
found at

On a side note, I am going to see Matthew Sweet the 23rd at the
Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA. He is opening for the Indigo Girls.
If I get any more information, I will be sure to let you know.

WHOA, J.C. Goh! I suppose you didn't consider that my posting could have been
supporting the opposite premise, did you?

As I posted a week ago, when this thing began, I think folks who lose all
respect for a band once they sign to a major aren't interested in the music so
much as their egos. HOWEVER, there is something to be said for a band who uses
their "clout" to give something back to an indie label or local scene. That's
all. That doesn't have to have anything to do with the whole "punker-than-thou"
ethos.

I don't know that Killing Joke has gone on record as feeling this way, but a lot
of people here and elsewhere have mentioned the similarity.  The guitar parts
are similar, but I don't think Nirvana's was a theft of Killing Joke's.  If
you want to get technical, Billy Joel's "Big Shot" has a similar rhythm line, as
well.  Am I the first person to notice?  ;-)

If anybody's going to sue somebody, it's Billy Joel--we'll have to wait and see
if _he_ notices.  My name is Joel, but I'm sure not Billy...

 A story in the August 12 Boston Globe reported that Lollapalooza
will not be booked again at Great Woods in Mansfield, MA. That's
the "Boston" stop on the tour. The article cited over $3000 worth
of "vandalism" for both nights, mostly due to the bonfires that
were set on the lawn. The fires were fueled by ripped up sod and
wood from a nearby fence.

 The story went on to say that they had not experienced this type
of damage at other types of shows, ranging from classical to heavy
metal. A spokesman for Great Woods said the "alternative" bands will
be allowed, but stated that Lollapalooza will not be booked next year.
Also mentioned were similar incidents at other venues along the tour.

 I think it's too bad that the reputation of such a great tour may be
marred by such incidents. Hopefully, we'll all get a chance to see it
again next year.

You never forget your first Lollapalooza. Thanks (again) Perry.

When I first saw the cover, I just started laughing.  It seemed to me
Morrissey was sticking his tongue at all his enemies..."See, I made it!
I made it!  Hahah!"  There was just something about seeing a billboard
on Sunset Blvd. with a 20 foot Morrissey sticking his tongue out at
all passerbys.

Also, his last single, "You're The One For Me, Fatty," also has a
concert shot.  It's also interesting that he released "We Hate It..."
as a single, since musically that was one of the weaker tracks from
the album, and a very poor choice as a single.  I suppose he just
wanted the whole world to hear his success story.  He also put in live
songs as B-sides.

I don't think the whole album is meant to be poking fun at Marr and
the Smiths.  But, ever since Morrissey found his current band, he has
taken every chance he gets to hurt the Smiths and recently he just
seems to like showing off his new found fame.

I would just like to hear Marr's comment about this album...

Interesting...were they part of the "Strangeways" session?  I heard
that they recorded quite a few tracks, but I thought everything was
eventually published.  I would have thought Rough Trade would have
published everything they could have to make more money, seeing how
Rough Trade basically was the Smiths :-).

Say, doesn't this remind you of the song "Paint a Vulgar Picture"?

	At the record company meeting

	And ohh, the plans that they weave
	And ohh, the sickening greed

I don't know what most people think about it, but it seems like just
a ploy for WEA to make some big bucks off of the Smiths.  I saw it in
the record stores today, but it was on import (ie. from the UK), so it
was going for $25.99!!!  Does anyone know if it's coming out domestically
in the United States?  I don't really want to pay that much for songs
I already have.  BTW, it was under the title, "The Smiths: BEST...I" and
actually had a good photo cover, like almost all of the Smiths albums
(one thing I really miss about all of Morrissey's work).

Oh yeah!  The first time I heard 'Come as You Are', I immediately thought
"Holy SHIT, that bassline is a TOTAL burn of 'Eighties'" (slowed down to about
half-speed, of course).  But I find the idea that KJ would sue Nirvana kinda
ridiculous.  Unless Jaz Coleman is behind it... he's probably jealous that the
rest of KJ are doing moderately well after the break-up, and decided that he
needs to get his name in the news somehow.  Heh.

I believe you mean Altered Images.  Their second LP (at least the second one
released in the US) was called "Pinky Blue", followed by "Bite", which I think
was their last.

I don't know much else about them or what happened to them.  I have all three
LP's (plus a greatest hits import which contained the song "Dead Pop Stars"
which is not on the other LP's), but I am not willing to part with them.  If
you get really desperate, you can e-mail me, and we can work out a way that
I could tape them for you.

Also, has anyone heard why the shows are being postponed?  From

with the baby coming, this mini-tour, the live performance at
the MTV music awards and all...  Hopefully it's not a binge like
