Right you lot. I'd really like to have something nice to say, but unfortunately i don't. Paul has done the most fantastic job possible with this list and i think it's an insult to him as to how we are all using it at present. Of course people are going to have differing opinions and of course people are going to want to air said opinions, but we should all do as Paul suggests and "pause for 10 seconds and think of cliff before hitting that send button". I can't say that i am without blame too, but after flaming someone on the list, i received a reply from this person and their original remark ... well, i won't bore you with the details, but needless to say, i felt pretty shit for having a go IN PUBLIC in the first place. I'm bored with the list at the moment. It upsets me as it used to be a source of happiness in my days. Maybe i'll just stick to posting official stuff on the list from now on ... I know this doesn't apply to everyone, but i do hope that those who are abusing this "privilege" get the message. Can we all take a leaf out of Susannah's book ... revenge is sweet, but does not have to be nasty and horrible. Don't get me wrong, i love the current non-b&s topics (fave gigs especially, even though i'm too embarrassed to admit mine), but the flaming and fights just have to stop. I can't be bothered to organise a picnic or tell everone about b&s news if all i'm going to get is grief and a zillion questions demanding info. I 'spose i kind of feel that "the providers" are being used. I don't demand that we (paul, david & myself) be treated with respect, but maybe we should all just be thankful that the band exist and make such beautiful and inspiring music that we use as the soundtrack to our lives. (notable honours must also go to the extra special keepers of the faith andy dean, the duke and wicked susie). oh fuck, am i making any sense? i can't make anybody do anything and i don't mean for any of this to sound like a threat, but things have got to change if you want the list to continue in the way that it has been in the past. that's me finished then :) ohmigod they killed kenny! cheers, Katrina. -- ******************************************************************** jeepster recordings ltd. - jeepster.uk@virgin.net 217 canalot, 222 kensal road, london, w10 5bn ph - 0181 964 9432, fax - 0181 964 8600 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
