hey,  u  know  i  was  thinking...  i  really  dig  moby  and  his  music,
and  i  love  film,  (actually  i  plan  on  making  them  in  my  future)
but  i  really  like  the  pulp  fiction  soundtrack  and  i  was  thinking
how  rad  it  would  be  if  he  did  something  in  the  way  of  a
"theme",  with  dialogue  and  watnot.  ok  just  thought  about  that  and
wanted  to  say  something  ;)

i don't know if this has been mentioned or if people
know, but there is a great cover story on moby in
"interview" with some really fabulous pictures.  also,
there is a piece and picture on him playing the
keyboards in "teen people."  a little less impressive,
but superb nonetheless...natalie.

Subject: (mobility) 'animal rights'

hi everybody,
backstage at the 'hurricane' festival in germany.
it's cold and grey outside, but it's a nice festival, nonetheless.
i was browsing the 'mobility' archives and i noticed
a few comments about 'animal rights'.  some of you
were vexed that the elektra re-release didn't have
any of the guitar-based songs.  i wanted to put
'face it' and either 'revolver' or 'say it's all mine' on
there, but, alas, it didn't happen.
in concert i would LOVE to play some of the
more guitar oriented songs off of AR, and to be
honest with you i don't know why i don't.  perhaps
in the future i'll focus on that some more.  i do try
to play 'revolver' when we're doing our own
shows, and i alway play 'new dawn fades' in
manchester...
but i, too, love animal rights.  i listen to it often.  and
i kind of like the fact that it hasn't been 'discovered'(gee
that sounds kind of arrogant, huh).
ah well, time to let other people use this phone line.
thanks,
moby

Well, all I can say, Mr.Hall, is that as an artist, you should do what you
want. I know for a fact it would be a brilliant thing if you played some
songs from AR live. Not only would I hear be hearing some songs from my
favourite album of all time - it would also, if sandwiched near 'Bodyrock',
amke an excellent contrast to some of the 'Play'-songs...

Subject: (mobility) my glastonbury

Glastonbury 2000 certainly isn't what you'd call a conventional festival.
Overlooked by a  spiritual tor, awash with world-avoiding hippy scum and
chancing scouser selling booze, fags, and E's, as well as trying to break
into your mud drenched tent, this, truly is, the beginning of the summer.
Avoiding my quota of such, and looking for decent food amongst the 1000's of
market stalls, is no small task, but one I can tackle. Especially in my
festival outfit. To avoid contamination, by anything, I have arrived, and
been kitted in ever since Thursday lunchtime, in a military, one piece,
Tyvek, chemical warfare outfit. Waterproof,  mud proof, particle proof,
splash proof, and most importantly - for this is Glastonbury- acid proof, I
begin to wage war on the slacker in the most slack fashion possible.

Friday is a strange day, with stranger to come. the first band, I managed to
see, are A PERFECT CIRCLE.. America industrial supergroup that manage to
combine the worst elements of Led Zeppelin and Rush and make it strangely
listenable.. and then LIVE. the year 2000's answer to the Grateful Dead,
without the songs..FU MANCHU meanwhile, remind me of driving in an open top
convertible along Californian highways in 1971, something I have never
done..

The major band of the day are Tommy Lee's METHODS OF MAYHEM. Tommy is more
famous for a dodgy video of him fucking his then-wife than any record he's
made. And deservedly so. This band are a triumph of rhythmic moronicism over
talent.  Tommy espouses the wonders of public nakedness, whilst his
Faux-red-inidian Rapping buddy offers no more than random shouts of
muthafugga and crowdsurfing. This is the year 2000 in full effect. The
overall effect is excerbated by, not lessened, by the absence of illegal
drugs, and Stephen Perkins, of the worlds ex-greatest ever band, on drums,
who seems content to play spudrock for dollars. Naturally, when the drum
duet between him and Tommy Lee., Perkins wipes the floor with glam rocks
greatest ever Thundergod, and nary even a mention of the, umm, metal classix
Dr.Feelgood  or Girls Girls Girls

So where are we now? Oh yeah, The BLUETONES. Rocks least offensive
alternative act are so bland, it almost offends. They even end with  theme
tune from  thirty-year-old TV show.  From where I'm standing the reaction is
so enthusastic I can hear hair growing and dandruff falling

Next up? CYPRESS HILL. I'm not a fan, at the start of their set, of their
one-dimensonal stoner hip hop, but by the end, I'm convinced they are the
shape of future rock. Especially when they amnage to bring on their very
own, heavier-than-god, metal backing band and resemble the amazing FNM vs.
Boo Yaa Tribe material from 1993, all crunching, crushing metal riffs and
gangstah rapping indeed,.

Five minutes in the presence of ROBERT PLANT and I know the man has to make
a ambient album, with his voice as the only instrument, super powerful,
backing super dull songs and other, unadventurous songs..

UTAH SAINTS:
1993's model return in the y2k form for their first ever show in five years
... and what a show it is. No first night nerves, no hesitation. The Utahs
are running on full speed tonight... offering a set of their unique brand of
stadium trance and techno. Love Song fits like a familiar glove, all
pulsating, energetic sleek synth lines and vocals, before the supercharged,
superpowered Power To The Beats emerges. Bookended, by vitrioliic, vital
Chuck D samples... Power To The People.. and Power To The Beats!, is a
ultra-Utah trrack.. Linear, all-conquering basslines, minimal, tranceish
synths, and DJ Tim's familiar, long missed, awesome scratches make this a
dead cert single.. even though it's been a week to the hour since I last
heard it it still strikes me as an awesome, collosal song.

Next up, WCYDFM? appears,.Jaz, obviously humbled with appearing in front of
some 10,000 people, opts to ponder... wander... nervously in  front of the
masses... but the famjilar samples of Annie Lennox, extended, looped,
pitched whip the capacity crowd to a small frenxy.. before the track takes
off, with all the grace, and power, of a 747 and transforms one of the
biggest Tents in Europe into a mass of sweat and adrenalin. Sometimes, this
stuff, this feeling of being strong, like music, is beyond words... beyond
language... beyond anything but feeling.

Morning Sun is next  I can't remember much about it. except that it sounds,
at first strike, like the rest of the newer material, sleek, slinky,
streamlined, and a lot of other things, all starting with an "S". Jez
bounces across the stage like a man possessed, seemingly overjoyed that the
sounds that he and Tim have made in their respective bedrooms (Planet Utah
indeed), seem to be so well received. And onto Funky Music. Edwin Starr. a
narvellous presence graces Glastonbury with his very own star,. and offers
us some  legendary vocals. 'let me hear you say. Glastonbury!. we like the
sound of.. Glastonbury!' with Edwin, again, losingthe plot but makingthe
song somewhere in the middle thereof.

I can't remember Punk Club. I think, since they were late on, this song was
hastily replaced by Something Good. And my god, was it good. Irresistable
rhythms and heavenly chords. And last, the long last classic Rock. Rock Your
Body, Rock Your Body, to an inescapable mantra courtesy of AC/DC's Brian
Douglas. and then it's all over.

So what did we get:
Intro,
Love Song,
Power To The Beats,
What Can You Do For Me?,
Morning Sun,
Lost Vagueness,
Funky Music (featuring a live appearance from Edwin Starr)
Punk Club,
Something Good,
Rock

THE THE :

And then running across a burning field in sunset, I manage to get catch
most of The The. Matt and Co. seem to be mining a bizarre field tonight -
looking less for the more populist material of old and instead heading for
introspective, acoustic material more suited to backrooms and bedsits than
sundrenched fields. And whilst some of it - the punk-rock Infected, the
awesome, improvised, organic Global Eyes, Weatherbelle, appear to be
appreciated - though not necessarily enjoyed - judging from the comatose
crowd. Whilst Matt appears to enjoy himself, flirting heavily with the
crowd, and drummer Earl is a mass of arms, legs and sticks, The The's
strength appears more insular, within themselves, than aimed at anyone
else.. but my god, what songs they have. Infected, Heartland, True Happiness
This Way Lies, and the most poignant, beautiful song of the weekend. Love Is
Stronger Than Death.. that shows anything can survive the demise of the
simple,. physical body. The crowd swells. waiting for the weekends most
important draw.. everybody's favourite techno thrashmetal blues house vegan.
MOBY!

MOBY :

My Weakness,
Machete,
Porcelain,
James Bond Theme, Bring the Noise, Say It's All Mine,
Go,
Natural Blues,
Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?
Ah Ah
Bring back My Happiness
The Sky Is Broken
Bodyrock
Honey
Feeling So Real
Thousand

At this stage it rapidly becomes apparent that Moby is everybody's
favourite. In fact, I spend most of Sunday dodging people who are convinced
that I AM Moby. He taps into the collective unconsciousness of the masses,
with the slightly exhausted anger of Machete, the apathetic beauty of
Porcelain, the stupid dumb rock of James Bond, which tonight, like every
night, is melded into a kick-ass medley with PE's Bring The Noise and his
Say It's All Mine from his neglected, classic Animal Rights, and the
futuristic, techno rock of Go. As "007" swoops in, the site is lit up by a
bizarre.massive smokebomb thrown from a wanker in the audience.

Meanwhile, the spell of Natural Blues and the beautiful Why Does My Heart?
Are broken with the incessant, unrelenting rhythms of Ah Ah, and the
ravetastic Bring Back My Happiness. From exhausted heartbreak to estastic
dancing in minutes. and the unstoppable Moby continues. He slits
fromnguitar,. To vocals, to bongos, to his keyboard, and back to yelling
"ROCKYOURBODYROCK YOURBODYYEAHCOMEON!" within 20 seconds for Bodyrock's
frentic start to his frantic, infectious pogoing of the downright dirty
Honey, the most beautiful rave song ever written, Feeling So Real, and
finally, for the predictable encore of 1000.

Finally NINE INCH NAILS, play to a less than capacity crowd due to the
Stadium techno of the empty CHEMICAL BROTHERS in the other field. NIN appear
late, on full 100% hate, and play a bizarrely retrospective set, with just
three songs from 1999's Fragile album in the 16 song set, which bristles
with post-adolescent loathing of everything  In some respects Trent appears
completely in connection with the year 2000, offering a timeless critque of
society that is that is wrapped up in introspective self-hatred and
misanthropy it is heard to tell if he hates just himself, or everything in
the entire universe. As a release, an exorcism though, it truly is essential
in purifying the souls of the disaffected masses.

SATURDAY

Thankfully I manage to catch forgettable minutes of most all bands until I
get to ELASTICA, a set of funky, punky, spunky material, with 20 songs
squeezed into 60 minutes with fag breaks included. New keyboardist Mew
bellydances sexily throughout the set, a brand spanking new congo player
adds depth and colour to some of the newer songs, and crowdsurfing is ago
ago. The most bizarre sight of the weekend is when a dancing tap jigs across
stage during the penultimate trio of early, silly songs such as Stutter and
Waking Up.

Then onto the PET SHOP BOYS, who, despite having a castrated set of 80
minutes manage to seduce every single person in the field with their
infectious brand of camp electro pop and irony. Hits essential to the human
condition re casually tossed off, with the class of the rulers, Neil Tennant
's infectious enthusaism,. And Chris' bizarre comical dancing during the
entrancing Paninaro.; Best moment? Cerys Mathhews joins for an inaudible
rendition of What Have I Done To Deserve This? And Chris can't help but
smile.

I Don't Know What You Want, Suburbia, Can You Forgive Her, Left To My Own
Devices, Se A Vida E, Drunk, Rent, Paninaro, Young offender, New York City
Boy, Positive Role Model, What Have I Done?, It's A Sin, I Will Survive,
West End Girls, Go West.

I manage to sleepwalk though, through the loved, but dreary sounds of
TRAVIS, and the bizarrely empty stadium techno of LEFTFIELD, who despite
making some of the best records of the past decade, manage to produce a live
show as exciting as watching paint dry.

SUNDAY

HAPPY MONDAYS. Are a joke band, a apathetic, unconstituted mess of a band
that seem to exist solely to make money and remix old hits for festival
crowds. At least, unlike most reformed bands, they have the guts to admit
they never like each other anymore or want to record material again.
instead, showing their ugly heads for as many summers as they can. In fact,
a fistfight between Shaun an his brother meant that the band had to draft in
a very short notice replacement from John Squire's old group THE SEAHORSES..
In the meantime, Shaun quits the group on stage and leaves.. Bez appears to
be the very own Bozo Skeleton of Lard's folklore, and I go crowdsurfing for
fun.

DAVID BOWIE is the final and biggest act of the festival. Playing just about
every hit anyone has ever heard of.. Ashes to Ashes, Absolute Beginners,
Rebel Rebel, Heroes, Let's Dance, he manages to silence his critics and stun
his fans by reprising material he promised never to perform again a decade
ago.

Ok, it's too late to carry on,.. Except to apologise to anyone I offended.
and the bizarre incident where I lost the keys to the tent I was borrowing
and had to cut my way into as I needed sleep.

This Is My Glastonbury, Share Me Yours.

I had trouble going to the sites I was sent by music mag, but you can go to
their home page and see moby's face if you scroll down just a bit.
There's also something about Sasha & Digweed that I haven't found yet.
