Subject: (mobility) some questions

Hi everybody,

I have some questions about remixes Moby did for other artists.
I hope anyone can answer (some of) them.  thanks!

- - Are there also any Moby mixes on the Only Time Will Tell CD single
  by Ten City?  (there are 2 on the US 12")

- - How many Moby remixes are on the OMD remix 12" (not the promo)?
  And which one(s)?

- - Is there also a Moby remix on the UK release(?) of the album Orbital
  by Orbital?  (the first album)


Bart


PS. I got my 100th. Moby sound carrier today, pretty sick huh?
It's the US Go remixes CD, one of the best Moby CD singles ever!

Rob Skipworth and I, and some friends of Rob's are making the trek down to
Dallas from various points in Arkansas saturday morning, and it ain't to see
JR. We're headed for Moby's show at the Lizard Lounge in Deep Ellum. I
bought my ticket Tuesday from Ticketbastard. And I'm itching with
anticipation to get there.

Is anyone else from the list going to be in attendence. it would be great to
have a little listee get together at the club before or afterwards and put
faces to names we see all the time.

I haven't decided what I'm wearing yet. *Maybe* my white/green ringer
"Revolver" tshirt with the cover for moby's SubPop 7" on it. Or if I don't
want to be "that guy" -- you know him, he's the loser at every show that
wears the band's tshirt to their own show -- I may go in basic black if the
texas heat doesn't kill me.
Anyway, look for me. I'm shortish, brown hair in a buzz cut and glasses.

Subject: RE: (mobility) No Animal Rights???

I asked Moby after one show why he doesn't play any Animal Rights stuff
live.
And he simply said that he hasn't teached that new chick bass player the
bass lines yet.
So I doubt they will find any time during their tour to teach her the riffs
unless they got lots of rehearsal time inbetween.  Cause, I always wanted to
hear Come On Baby live...but guess not :P
Later,
Chris

Gee, I wonder if she doesn't read music or if MOBY just doesn't have the bass
lines transcribed.  But which ever it is, it seems kinda weird.  When my bf and
I were watching her play, we didn't think she was really playing most of the
time. Odd.

Okay, hate to bug you all again, but can anyone explain how English Pounds
translate into American Dollars?  I'm looking at the Action Records site and
I'm wondering how much things cost but ofcourse (*giggle*) it's in pounds.
Does anyone know the conversions?

About 1.60-1.70 American Dollars per pound. And then dont forget to add the
VAT (Value Added Tax) of 17.5% on top of the price, unless its already
included.

     OK, I finally got ahold of WBCN radio to confirm the Moby show. MOBY will
be playing at the Hatchshell August 26th for FREE! Opening acts start at 6:30pm
(they didn't say who). They guesstimated that MOBY would be on at around 8pm.

     The Hatchshell is right along the Charles River in Boston. You CANNOT miss
it. If you are in Boston, ask ANYONE where the Hatchshell is and they will point
you in the correct direction.

     Any other questions??

No info on the Boston Show? All these people writing how awesome the Moby
shows are, please help us all out who want to go see him in Boston. Oh, and
those of you who missed Moby in Denver, don't feel too bad. I missed my first
chance to see him in Hartford a few months ago and I even spent 60 bucks on
the tickets.

And Frankz, once a get a better copy that doesn't skip I will give yo a copy
of that UTAH SAINTS 2nd album (Wired World). But it would have to be MD since
I don't have a tape player.

And Kimbalina, I don't have any trade rules except you give me something and I
give you something. All I want is something I don't have, no matter what it is
or how much it costs. So, if you have anything I didn't list or good stuff by
other people, (email me) then it's cool. And also, BT is just one guy - BT
Brian Tran... He is awesome, just wish he would start working harder on a new
CD.

And Bjorkdoll, what is the deal with this Bjork movie?! That is awesome. I
could sit and just watch her ramble for 2 hours.
Anyway, Later.

Subject: (mobility) Moby in Minneapolis

As it gets closer to Monday I just get more excited.  I've never seen Moby
in person before and I have been waiting years for this.

I am interested in meeting anyone who from this list who is going Monday
night.  I'll be the guy wearing the blue t-shirt that says Oldskool on it
like the one that Moby's DJ was wearing when he performed on Conan O'Brien a
few weeks ago. I am going to get as close to the stage as possible.   Anyone
who sees me is more than welcome to come up and talk to me.  I've already
talked to Andy.  I know Xaq is going to be there (Xaq find me I want to know
what happened during the interview).  Jason if you are seriously going that
early maybe we can hook up and flag Moby down.  I plan on being there no
later than 6 or 6:30.  If anything to get in line.  Melanie come find me.
If I don't see any of you there then I hope you have a good time.

Xaq, I think kimby came up with a good question to ask Moby in the
interview.  Ask him about "Thousand" and if it has significance to him or
why he always ends with it.  Other than because it sounds like it would be
cool.  Guess I'll know on Monday, won't I.

Tim

p.s. Xaq, thanks for replying to that email I sent you.  I hate to ask for
things like that but I couldn't resist.  I understand.

For those of you that have waited patiently for an opportunity to buy Moby
merchandise, unfortunately, we will have to ask you to wait a bit longer.  We
are currently working out an arrangement with our merch company to offer Moby
stuff on the web.  Hold on a little longer.  Thanks for your support and
patience.

Oh hey, if any one finds out can they let me know?  I'm really curious now that
I've been thinking about it.  As I said, I think we can all conclude that
"Thousand" is his finisher.  Why?  Okay, that's all I want to know, then I can
die a happy girl....:-)

Yo!

I've read before that Moby feels that Thousand is his only complete song.
 This is probably why he feels most comfortable finishing his set with it.

That's what I think.

I can't believe I finally get to see Moby tonight!  Woo Hoo!  Course, like
some others I'm a little disappointed that he's not playing anything off
Animal Rights...but hey, that's okay!

I wanna meet other mobility folks!  So if you're gonna be at the show
tonight, look for the guy in the green Doc Martens and the tomorrowpeople
shirt...we should all congregate by the buses after the show and give him
hugs and Hi's from the list!

oh well..only 7 1/2 hours to go!

Me again...heh....two things...

1)  Can someone who's been to one of the shows this tour tell me what kind
of stuff he's selling?  Need to know how much cash to carry...any CD's?  Are
the T-shirts pretty cool?

2)  Here's a quote for everybody's general amusement.  England's New Music
Express has a strange love/hate thing going on with Moby.  Every review of
his CD's they start out making fun of him, then grudgingly admit that he's a
genius.  This is from the review of "Everything is Wrong: Mixed and Remixed"

"And here he pulls off the double whammy of demonstrating near-genius in yet
another field, and validating every concept of remixing in the process.
Don't you just hate smart-arses? "

Incidentally they also gave one of the best reviews I've seen Animal Rights
get...check it out at:

moby questions--

due to the new press 'popularity' of your vegan beliefs, do you feel a need
to be a leader of the vegan lifestyle?  do you ever feel a pressure to
change people who do not want to be changed? or do you just whip up a batch
of chocolate chip pancakes and forget about the whole thing??

what is your favorite new instrument to Play (bad bad pun) or compose with??

when you decide to release a single, who decides which remixes are
selected?? do you have total contol on which singles/remixes are selected?

thanks xaq! see you there!

Jason

Heh...if you had the fastest techno song ever written which is only based on
beats per minute
accelerating from 1 to a 1000 bpm's and back down to 1, which is the soul of
techno, the BPM.
Wouldn't you use it to close a show and use it as a perfect way to end
something.
That's all she wrote...

the t-shirts are ok.  there are some long sleeved ones with his little
drawing of himself on it.  i bought a small yellow one because all the other
shirts are always too big for me.  then, there are Play t-shirts, a black
one and a white one.  i believe that there were also hats, as well as the
Play CD.  the t-shirts cost $15, as well as the CD.  i think the long
sleeved ones were $20.

so, it depends on how much u r looking to spend.  i took $40 with me and i
bought a shirt, still having $ left over.  the venue i was at was selling
drinks and stuff, too... so u may want to bring $ for water or whatever.

i hope that answers your Q's!

Oooh...I nearly forgot to answer this!

Let's see

1.  In light of recent political climate where non-politcal figures are
making waves in the politcal arena (Jesse Ventura, Warren Beaty)  would you
ever consider running for office yourself?

2.  When you're doing remixes for other artists, do you tend to work with
them a lot, or do you just pick up the tapes and drop off your mix?

3.  What's your favorite and least favorite things about being on tour?

4.  Do you have any plans to release a collection of your videos?


Okay, that'll do it for me, thanks xaq!
