===>Hey, speaking of GEMM.COM....  Anyone ever try to
find something by New Order on there?  It will NOT bring up
a THING by them for some reason.  Orb?  No problem.  Future
Sound of London?  No problem.  Joy Division?  No problem.
But it does NOT have a single listing for New Order.

Can someone else check this out for me and confirm?

Later!

Vince

greetings all
my name is chicken and i have been lurking on here for about 2 years
i just never felt that i had any new information and any questions i can
think of have been answered
i am ever grateful to this list because i know when to hit the shops
looking for that certain remix, etc.

anyway, yes the orb played twice at woodstock ( the main reason i went )
they finished saturday morning around 6am
i was driving by the festival at this time and could see the reflections in
the morning sky from the stage lights, but could not go in to the festival
then cause of the police road blocks at all the nearest exits
once in to the site, i confirmed with someone the orb did play that morning
oh well missed it but at least i knew what i thought was the orb was the orb
spent a good amount of time tring to find out more about orb set and the
ravestock thing but it was very difficult to get any info from anyone
most people had no idea what i was talking about
i thought i might have a chance to meet dr lx in the tent with the
light-goggles relaxation type thingie,
but didn't see him

after a crappy rainy muddy but interesting weekend with a few unconfirmed
rumors of orb playing again sometime during the festival, it happened after
peter gabriel on the big stage (the last scheduled performance)
i was worn and tired and stumbled over to the second stage (long walk)
i could here outlands in the distance, you can imagine the rush i felt
the orb was playing again!
excellent outdoor show (my favorite kind of orb)
i think muddy mudskipper was played cause of the mud ( ya gotta love the
orb's sense of humor)
surrounding the stage was a field of tents being blasted with heavenly sounds
people either being orbed for the first time or annoyed cause they were
trying to sleep
i never did see any listing that the orb was playing this second show, i'm
just glad i was there

all i know about tapes/cd's of this show is dipping into the cyberworld cd
(playing now)
and i later read somewhere that the orb were much more pleased with the
sunday show
i love this band
chicken

Subject: (orb) GEMM

To whom it may concern, I do not have the post handy, but whom ever asked
about New Order on GEMM, I checked it out, and I too found nothing. You may
wish to send an email to the SYS-ADMIN, as they recently implemented some
new changes in the program code of the GEMM system. For a while I could not
even find ORB, system kept saying to use 4 or more letters to search. They
fixed it, but now it only brings up exact matches, so I have to check "Orb,
the" in case anyone has posted their stuff as "the Orb".

Slight Change of subject,

Also I might add, as I check GEMM frequently (as well as a large number of
other individual dealers). I have had very good results finding Orb items
off GEMM from Tony Bale @ Hotspace. He specializes in queen related items,
but he has come through for me on a few rarer Orb items (e.g. Perpetual
Dawn UK BLRD 46, Orbus Terarrum Promo CDORB1, and Assassin Doble digipack
UK  BLRDA 81 [still searching for BLRDB 81]. From what I understand he has
a couple extra copies of the Perpetual Dawn single, as well as a few
others. He also accepts want-lists and will search out items. He almost got
me the Blue Room Double Digi-pak (the main one that started me on my online
quest for the 40 minute version), but the CD he received was damaged,
however I payed nothing for it, and any used stuff that he gets he checks
out the entire disk first. He is very reliable. For the most part I usually
only request UK or other European releases, as from what he has told me, US
releases are rather hard to come by over there (also the fact that any US
releases over there are going to be more expensive than here in the US).

Also, if anyone is looking for a copy of Morphology, Isolation Tank has it.
I just received my copy on Monday and its great. Chech them out at
http://www.isotank.com/show.sql/ambient/o/orb.html.

Also again, I recently place an order with these guys, my stuff is still on
order, but in any case with rarer items I am apprehensive. I will believe
it when the item arrives. I ordered Anthology II, they also have a rather
large list of other Orb goodies, but if anyone else has info about these
guys let me know. But here it is to check out for
yourselves...http://www.cdeurope.com/  ...I make no recommendation for
these guys as of yet. As my stuff has not arrived or been indicated as
shipped yet. But if they come through I will let y'all know.

If I find any other good ones I will post them, I have been doing a lot of
Record/CD/Tape dealer searches for the US/UK/ and Europe, but so far these
are the best ones I've found. Anyone esle with info please post.

Happy Trails (the good kind),
- -Jeremy

I order Anthology 1 and 2 from CD Europe over a year ago. Every six weeks
or so, I got a "sorry, out of stock, do you want to re-order" message.
At least they never hit my credit card like some companies (Tunnel
Records comes to mind).  I re-ordered a couple of times but to no avail,
so eventually gave up.  Let us know how you do, and thanks for the other
tips.

Thanks,
Rich

Subject: (orb) youth news

from music news of the world:
http://www.addict.com/MNOTW/hifi/

                     The second album from the Fireman, an incognito
                     ambient side-project from former Beatles
                     bassist Paul McCartney, will be released in the
                     U.K. on Sept. 21. No U.S. release date for Rushes
                     -- which comes five years after the release of the
                     first Fireman album, Strawberries Oceans Ships
                     Forest -- has been set yet. Although he would not
                     confirm that the Fireman was, in fact, McCartney,
                     or that the producer was Youth (Verve, Tom
                     Jones), a representative for the Hydra Records
                     label releasing the album did confirm that the
                     effort will feature eight songs, including "Bison,"
                     "Appletree Cinnabar Amber" and "Watercolour
                     Guitars."

This week is was reported on Jason Bentley's "Metropolis" show on
KCRW-FM (National Public Radio) that The Orb would be playing here this
fall  with Meat Beat Manifesto and Talvin Singh.  He did mention that it
was not confirmed yet.  Any info from anyone?  Smiley, this one may be
for you.  I'm getting my hopes up.

Cheers,
