Real quick, Alan, and then I've got to unsubscribe to this list there's just too many messages and I'm, at work and the boss is riding my ass about it): If I had another cat to name (my first one's named Mattingly, after my childhood hero Donny "Baseball" Mattingly), I'd name it Larsen (after another Yankee named Don; perfect game in the '56 Series) or Bell, a reference to the late Chris Bell but also sounds like "Belle & Sebastian" or "belle" as in "beautiful", which might be a sweet name for a cat, don't you think? Well, folks, its been real. --Sammy

slowdive, eh? hmmm... [...] well i've got the first album, and it's not that bad. i was just thinking of all that shoegazing stuff, and all the bands.. i think mark gardener out of ride was in select one month in the summer of 91 listening to snatches of various songs and trying to identify the relevant bands (and i saw ride twice and they were crap both times). telescopes, moose, ride, chapterhouse (1 good song, and that was because of a zeppelin sample: saw them live as well, and - yes - they were crap too), slowdive, swervedriver, pale saints (not bad, and i can't wait for the all saints cover pale sainst tribute album) and various others i can't remember.

that's interesting, 'cos i think Moose are a really good band... Does anybody else own their three albums, especially "Honey Bee" which i think is ace... Oh and i saw them live twice, and they were...erm, alright i suppose...and i saw Slowdive as well, who are now Mojave 3, and they were/are not that bad...except for that last Slowdive album "Pygmalion", well weird... As for the Pale saints, i still listen to their first album...

oh and another thing... i've benn given this kitten... but 'i'm struggling to find her a name... being a posy twat, i'm looking for something with a subtil cultural reference. Or something.

Any ideas?

alan, in france, and it's too bloody hot...
