There were seats... until the third song, by which time they had all been demolished. What a gig! A year or so later I went to the same venue to see Siouxsie and the Banshees. Same chairs, same result. Another amazing gig. Now, in both cases the smashed chairs ended up being thrown towards the stage. Not at the band, but in their direction. It was a respect thing. Just like spitting. Anyway, given Moby's punk sensibilities, and in honor of Animal Rights, why don't you all do the same. Makes moshing more fun and the scars will be conversation openers for years to come. "How did you get that scar on your face?" "Smashing up chairs at a Moby gig!" OK, so the reality will be more like: "Hey, how did you get your piles?" "From sitting on an uncomfortable chair at a Moby gig." Which story would you all prefer?

Was wondering if anyone had read the book yet. Glad you enjoyed it.<<<< I enjoyed the book, too, Martin. I thought you did a good job of highlighting both the positive and negative aspects of Moby's outspokenness, and your closing chapter felt like an opening chapter, which inspires optismism. The poduction of the book was excellent, it was very attractive and the dull matte (is that the right name for non-glossy?) surface was nice. I learned a lot about Moby's younger years that I didn't know before. It was also nice to learn what the whys behind the messages Moby repeated in interview after interview. A couple of minor beefs. You put "The Blue Light Of The Underwater Song", which should have been Underwater Sun. Also, you wrote that the John Spencer Blues Explosion mix of Into The Blue was the only worthwhile one. Into The Blue #2 is my favorite Moby CD, mainly the Simple & Spiritual mixes. If you haven't, give them a listen. I think they're among Moby's very best.

METALLICA drummer LARS ULRICH has written to Icelandic band SIGUR ROS to thank them for inspiring his work on METALLICA's new album, after going to see them at a gig in SAN FRANCISCO. Ulrich wrote the band a note saying: "Thank you, thank you, thank you! We are in the studio right now struggling to make some sort of album. I'm going to go back after this completely inspired." Metallica began work on their new album at a secret studio location in San Francisco with producer Bob Rock on April 23. Ulrich described the sessions in his studio diary as more adventurous and experimental, adding that they'd kicked off the recording session with "sick, ugly new fucked-up jams". Joining Ulrich in the audience at Sigur Ros' gig at San Francisco Fillmore, part of a brief sold-out US jaunt which began at Coachella Festival, were 'X-Files' actress Gillian Anderson, who told the band she wanted to come to the UK to see them support Radiohead at Oxford South Park on July 7, and the Kronos Quartet. Celebrity guests at their New York Angel Orensanz Center show, which sold out within 10 minutes of going on sale, included David Bowie, Moby and Laurie Anderson. Sigur Ros, whose album 'Agaetis Byrjun' is released in the US tomorrow (May 15), returned to their own studio - a converted swimming pool just outside Reykjavik - to continue work on its long-awaited follow-up. They are expected to tour Japan later this year, with further US dates expected around October. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com - ------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to majordomo@xmission.com with the line "unsubscribe mobility" in the body. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 May 2001 18:55:35 +0100 From: martinjames <martin@martinjames.demon.co.uk> Subject: Re: (mobility) Replay Biography Thanks for the feedback Steve. Strangely enough I actually picked up the book the other day (its good to re-read a few months later to get a different perspective) and noticed that mix up between Sun and Song. I must have been tired when I wrote/ proofed it, although my sub-ed should have picked it up too. As with all of my comments about Moby's music that summary of 'Into the Blue' was simply my point of view. The song in its original form remains, to this day, my favorite Moby track. The remixes just didn't live up to the original for me. But I will listen to them again, especially the Simple and Spiritual Mixes, which I haven't listened closely to for pure pleasure for sometime now. Listening to the tracks when I was writing the book can't really count as pleasure (although it was enjoyable). You tend to listen to things with a critical distance when its to do with 'work'.
