Hello again everyone. I once said I couldn't wait for uni to start again; well, maybe I should reconsider. The work is piling in on me, yet I'm doing enough. One of my projects this semester is a website (which I'm working on at the moment), and part of it is to be on The Divine Comedy. My favourite band for the last two years. But they are no more, I hear most of you cry. Yes, I know (I have been around many DC sites in the past few days) but I'll proceed with the site anyway. Ah well. What a shame. What was it that caused the split anyway, I wonder? Was it the poor sales of Regeneration? Then again, Liberation and Promenade never did that well either. Some of their albums don't seem to get the credit they deserve. I'll admit I was annoyed to see Regeneration selling for only £9.99 in Virgin a few months ago. OK, tonight I'm off to sing in my first concert for the local Operatic Society. I'm going to need a lot of luck. Before I go - good to see you are all paying tribute to TDC in some way or another. And Stu - You said "..apparently Neil Hannon will still be recording for the same label, and since he wrote all the songs anyway, it shouldn't be too traumatic, but still." Yes, it shouldn't be too traumatic. TDC have had different line-ups before, and Neil will be recording for Parlophone. But if there is a new line-up, will it be as good? And, that was a good title for your message - you can see I've borrowed it.
