that does indeed sound like fine festival fare. Sure beats seeing
Lawagon at midday in a field in Berkshire."

Well I forgot to talk about Primal Scream, Placebo, Yo la Tengo, The Jesus 
& Mary Chain or Spiritualized at the same festival. This festival is being 
made for the last four years, and it is sit in Benicassim, a seaside town 
near Valencia. This year me and 24.999 more went there. But, oh, in 
february-march, when I first heard the name of some bands for this last 
edition, B&S WERE INCLUDED ! Can anyone tell me what happened then ?

Another question related with B&S: The "Acid House" soundtrack has been 
released also in Europe (obviously, not including UK) ?

Lately I have been hearing to Jack, The Fall, the first R.E.M albums, Nick 
Cave, Ani di Franco, and the wonderful spanish band LE MANS. If you come to 
Spain and want to buy a really lovely record, buy their latest "Aqui vivia 
yo" ("Here is where I used to live"). I know, they sing in spanish, but 
does it really matter ? it?s a shame, because they had disbanded recently. 
If Spain had a musical press like the british one ( I know that their 
tastes are quite debatable, but in Spain it would be impossible to see 
bands like Radiohead or Portishead reach at the highest positions in the 
charts) they would have had a bigger success. The musical scene here is 
basically shit. You can only find good bands at the independent resources, 
and they are quite excluded from the media.

Finally: can anyone tell me why always that I write "I?ve been" appears the 
"?" symbol in the apostrophe ? should I change something in my computer ?


Bye.Lordy Jordi.
