Subject: (mobility) MuteBank Mail Order

Hi gang,

Have any of you ever ordered from Mute's on-line
mailorder in the past? They are having a
fantastic sale on Moby's catalog items, as well,
Natch Blooz will be available there later today
for residents of the US. But I can't find any
listing for what they're shipping rates are to
the US and I was wondering if anyone had ordered
from them before and knew what the TOTAL bill was
per cd, etc., for shipping.

Subject: (mobility) Homelands Festival @ Winchester

Pollstar.com doesn't list Moby playing the Homelands Fest in Winchester,uK or
Scotland, but fwwt.com does.  fwwt lists the Homelands Fest as taking place on
the weekend of the 27th of May in the UK (Moby on the 27th) and the weekend of
the 3rd in June in Scotland (Moby on the 3rd).  Does anyone have any more info,
like how tickets are going to be sold, when, etc, especially for the Winchester
date?

Where is Winchester, anyway..

Oh, I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, so I'll mention it.  There's a
little Moby blurb in Q magazine (the one with that Gallagher bro on it) on
page.. um.. 141, I think. It lists the dressing room food requirement of one of
his Spain shows.  (Um, allright.)

Subject: (mobility) Moby on UK TV

This was painful to see now, since it was too late to watch any of it, but I
thought that incase anyone could get copies for themselves, they'd like to know
that:

Watch out for Moby on TV & on the radio this week:
              Ian Wright (Fri 3 Mar, ITV 10.30pm)
              Exclusive (Sun 5 Mar, Channel 5)
              O Zone (Sun 5 Mar, BBC2 11.50 am, repeat)
              Heaven & Earth (Sun 5 Mar, BBC1 approx 10am)
              Planet Pop (Sun 5 Mar, 10.30 am Channel 4, repeated Tue 14)

That's actually from Mute's website (http://www.mutelibtech.com/mute/). I wish
I had known that they were doing that before!  At least the Planet Pop will be
repeated, if anyone knows exactly what time, please let us know.

Subject: (mobility) GO 2000 is here !

How many remixes were done after 91 of our man's underground major hit, the
smashing track known as Go ? We got the 92' mixes with Jam & Spoon remixes
and my favorite mix, the Arphathoski one (for the piano, superb) on Cd and
12", we got also Go Remix'98, a promo Cd single release in France but
available for everyone on the I Like to Score Cd. And i just found the 2000
remix of Go, totally unofficial on this page:
http://www.volny.cz/meettechno2000/music.html
Search for Ferris Bueller - Go 2000 (original Mix) and download

Trancey stuff, disappointing at the first listen but i begin to not dislike
it.
Well, despite being released 9 years ago, Go is still appreciated by remixers.
See you
