three of their videos. I had only heard about one of them, and had never

even seen it, so he offered to make me a copy of those three, and fill
up
the rest of the tape with other videos he liked. There was a lot of
Kraftwerk, some NiN, Prodigy, Squeeze, and others, and the very last
video
on it was Safety Dance! >>

Are there other MWH music videos beside "Safety Dance?"  For which
songs?

How about Ivan music videos? Are there any out there? What songs were
used?

I would love to see any or all of them, but they appear to be
exceedingly difficult to come by. I would be grateful for any help with
sourcing these. Thanks.

Subject: (hats) questions

Hats off to the new threads started lately!

Does anyone know where that line about the old man and the boy and the
village came from?
Thanks for the Rational Youth CWNL recommendation.  I've been wanting to
try some old synth stuff and now I know where to start.  If I was going to
buy a Kraftwerk album too, what should I get?

The inactivity on the list became apparent to me when November 14 passed
and no one mentioned "Men Without Hats Day."  A couple years ago someone
on the list told us that a friend of his and he declared Nov. 14 "MWH Day"
in reference to the song "Things in my life" from ROY:
"Things like polyester pants and shoes don't make it easy to remember
Was it here or yesterday, or wasn't it the 14th of November?"

Then, on New Year's Eve, I played the entire "in the 21st Century" album
driving to my friend's house.  It was fascinating to think that ten years
ago, as the 80s passed into the 90s, MWH was thinking about ten years
ahead, the new century.  One of my all-time favorites is "Here Come the
90s", so here's to "dreaming on the other side" of the millenium.

I'm still interested in helping with the cover album, Aaron.
hatlessly,

Subject: (hats) cover album

  Hi, everybody!  I expressed interest in the cover album concept before,
and now I'm relocating to New York City (from rural Minnesota) so it might
be easier for me to physically interact with anyone that's around NYC and is
also interested in covering MWH....I know the odds of finding a fellow
aspiring Hats cover band member isn't too good, but I thought I'd give it a
stab.  Out of curiosity, do any of you hatters live in or around New York?
Just wondering....

Subject: (hats) Folk3 German release

Hi everybody!


It was great to read so many hats-related messages after a long time...

To celebrate this event, I decided to share a discography update with you:
Long time ago, German list member Frank Spinath (still around?) sent me a
photo copy of the back cover of his Folk3 CD. The Catalogue number is
CDST18, but it has "Printed in West-Germany" printed on it. This suggests
that there has been a German release of Folk3 on CD!!

However, I do not remember if he told me what was written on the disc
itself, or even what it was. So it might be possible, that the disc was
made in Canada, and only the cover was made in Germany.


Best regards,
Thomas Bieler

Subject: (hats) Update on Lexicon poll

Well, I went back and looked at that Lexicon "100 Best Albums Of The
80s" poll to see if our beloved Hats were on there, and guess
what? They weren't. "Rhythm Of Youth" was nowhre to be found.
I was really really surprised. And disappointed.

I was going to post a question on the list about that! :)  I was wondering
what everyone thought about the album and it's message now that we've passed
the 90s since the album came out.  I mean, it's pretty obvious we'd mention
that, right? :)  I don't have any thoughts now except for some negative
ones;  Ivan's message, to me anyway, was for the environment.  Well, it was
in style to be green in the early 90s but I'm afraid it's old news today
( But I'm hoping we do change our minds this DECADE (not millennium becuase
that could mean 2999!).  And be nicer to each other.

Subject: RE: (hats) (we're kinda) In the 21st Century

I think Ivan's partial message was about equal rights as well.  It seems
we're doing better now than we were.  Women are more widely accepted in the
workplace and in the military.  They are also becoming more dominant in the
household.  It seems we're on the right track.  We're also TRYING to spruce
up our ecology, but I think that has a ways to go.  All in all, Ivan's fears
were warranted, and even partially addressed.  Also, his worries about the
government (Such as mentioned in I Like) which were warranted during the
Cold War have seemed to become less relavant.  He should write a new song
for his next album about the media being the ones to spread the lies and
propaganda -=).
