I'm here! Mostly lurking. I have been around for about 2 years now. I wish I had known about this list a few years ago. Sounds like you guys have shared alot. (T-Shirts, MP3's, etc.)
I only have the albums that are currently available. I was able to pickup ROY and FOTE on vinyl, but no Freeways.
Anyway, I am really glad to be a part of this!

Hats off to the Hatless!

Subject: (hats) I'm still here

Hi all,

I'm still here, and I'm still in negotiations with Stefan about the
tribute. I'm also waiting for a couple new songs and hopefully some
cover art.

When everything is done, if Stefan doesn't let us release it
commercially, I'll start burning copies myself. I don't know how much
I'll charge, but It'll be just enough to cover expenses and
wear-and-tear.

If anyone else wants to contribute a song or artwork, let me know. I
especially need artwork.

Thanks,

Tony Reed

That's exactly what I wanted to suggest after reading the first
paragraph. "Still in negotiations with Stefan", PAH!!! I'd say, chose an
appropriate four letter word and do it with Stefan, our little wannabe.

See, apart from MWH I'm very much into Sigue Sigue Sputnik and also on the
mailing list (at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sputnik), and apart from
releasing better stuff than ever right now (not just talking about it)
they encourage ANY fan contribution. There has been a fan made remix CD,
another one will follow, and they look into it THEMSELVES that their stuff
gets put up on Napster. Tony James will spend a hell of a lot of his time
to personally answer every fan email (I myself made a very brief
technical remark about his newsletter and got a personal reply to
that one, too). I could list more than that.

Okok, I'm in a bad mood, but I still think I have a point here.  ;-)


All the best,
Thomas

People have strongly divided opinions on this issue.  To those who
desire the art, it can seem only right that they should be able to do as
they see fit with it, whatever that may be (copying, championing or
celebrating the artist).  But how can artists survive if they receive no
reward for what they do?  No reward means the artist can't devote the
proper time to creating quality art.  By taking things into there own
hands, the fan can dilute and saturate the art, and bypass the artist
altogether.

Some artists are very serious about what they do.  We appreciate the
Doroschucks for that very reason and I can understand why they feel
protective, maybe overly protective, of their creations.

In any case, today's artist exists in a world where they are losing
creative control over what they do and that's just life ...   Good or
bad, that's simply the way it is.  And it's just going to get worse.  I
can see a day when maybe the artist will produce one exciting piece of
work and the fans will then take over in that vein and leave the artist
begging on some street corner saying "I started that!"

Oh wait, that's today!!

(Now, where was I, oh yeah... Ideas for Wa ha ha, ha ha ha, ha ha
haalllls)

Spooky isn't it?

I am.
Dave Krupla, formerly of Ohio, currently in Indianapolis, Indiana.  I
joined up in '95, I think.  I check in and read all my mail on this
account about once a month normally.

One of the recent list posts mentioned Ideas for Artwork.  I have one,
but I have absolutely no artistic ability.  Last Fall, while driving
back to Indy from my parents' place in Ohio, I saw a beautiful site in
the sky.  It was in the late afternoon/early evening hours, and in a
patch of blue sky there was a purplish cloud.  I wish I had my camera
with me because it had the almost perfect appearance of the man with
the bowler hat from our beloved symbol.  All it needed was the circle
and the bar and it would have been perfect.  That image would make a
good album cover.

Although I would personally alter it to be a view of a cloud in the
morning, as in the Rising Hat.
