Just got back from dropping off some treats for my poor minion (with her two herniated disks).
On the way back home, I was with minion and her friend on a street corner at 16th and Valencia in the Mission. Minion's Friend is standing there on the street corner reading my book as I try to hail a cab, and a woman came up and said, "Is that the book about records? I just heard about it on the radio." She was ordering a copy for husband for Christmas.
Also, Minion's Friend was looking at the back cover blurbs, saw one of the names and shouted out, "Blag Dahlia! No fucking way. I had a...uh...thing with him once. And another woman."
I will be posting the info as I have it on the CD exchange later today or tomorrow. If you have recently mailed out any CDs or if you have recently received any CDs, please email me that info at rlb14 AT columbia DOT edu.
Sue, I saw where you received my mail, so no need to email me.
And I think she'd like Adam Ant in makeup and highwayman gear and tight pants.
Is there any doubt? He was the start of my lifelong obsession with pretty boys in eyeliner.
Similarly just threw on Concrete Blonde's "Dancing Along the Edge" because Johnette waltzing around in a ruined wedding dress in arty b/w? Close enough for this tape.
Concrete Blonde is
always
a good choice. Always.
Sooo, when do I get a copy of this tape?

If you'd like to send your mix to anyone on the list who does not have it, please let me know. I will get you their address to you and also notify other people on the list so they will not double mail.
make sense?
Attention Pixies fans: if you're in NYC, or can get here by tonight, I know where to get two tickets. $50 each, but the owner (friend of a friend) may be willing to negotiate rather than risk taking the whole loss. Let me know if you're interested ASAP either here or at my profile address.
msbelle, I've got a copy of my mix here at work to send to Angus. My recent schedule between work and the book has sort of pushed it to the back of my attention. I'll see if I can get on it this week, but I'm still pretty busy at work.
Sooo, when do I get a copy of this tape?
I'll try to dub you one when this is filled out.
Jon, you're bogarting mixes from Joe, Erin, and Tommyrot? Tsk, tsk.
I'd like to hear mixes from everyone whose mix I haven't received. I'm willing to trade those that I have or other sundry mixes to anyone who wants to finish it out.
