I've been listening to Lee Hazlewood today too. Great minds. | ||

Ride - Lannoy Point. First track on their first album in 21 years, and it sounds like the Go-Betweens with synthesisers. Seriously. | ||

Sternbuschweg - Ich erzähl dir was Now there's a sweet surprise!: "Hey Stuart, this is Benjamin from Sternbuschweg. Found you on the web while searching the band. Sending you an unreleased version of „Ich erzähl dir was“ (our first single) , if you’re interested. It exists an earlier release of it, you may look for, but this one is quite rare (and good as well). Best regards from Berlin, Benjamin." | ||

Stuart, Versions of the song appear on a CDR ( No Label ) released in 2000 ( Ich Erzahl Dir Was ) and a CDR Promo ( No Label ) released in 2001 neither of which I have ever managed to track down. | ||

That's amazing Stuart! I wonder how he knew you were looking for their material. | ||
| Stuart Wilson Member Username: Stuart Post Number: 1372 Registered: 10-2006 |
I know. And is it so easy to get hold of my e-mail address, too?? Still, in a world of random internet insult, so nice to get a gesture of gratuitous kindness. | ||

My best guess would be this forum. | ||

What a lovely thing to happen, Stuart. | ||

All very cool anyway. Awright then. Dom A, the ball's in your court. | ||

My friend and I had a young French waitress serving us in London the week before last. I and my friend mentioned we were going to Paris in a couple of days and hadn't been there in quite a while, except I mentioned I'd zoomed through for a single night to see a show last year. She asked me who I went to see and I told her Dominique A. She didn't know who he is. I asked my friend if I'd mispronounced his name but he said my pronunciation was fine. She was a millennial and Dom A is a Gen X'er but still I was a little surprised and saddened by that. | ||

Randy Dominique A is not exactly a household name in France. But I have friends in the city of Nantes and recently on 2 different occasions they have been sitting on a café terrace and he has cycled by. The first time they didn't say anything, but the second time one of them shouted his name and got a friendly wave back ! | ||

For a lecture near me, there was less than 50 people in the place.. So we could have a drink with the guy. Like with Robert, you can chat with him at the merchandises place, even after the bigger concerts. | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 3770 Registered: 03-2005 |
So I found, Andrew. I realized he wasn't huge but I guess I expected people to have at least heard of him, perhaps as an artist popular with snobby indie types. The Trianon show I attended last year was pretty well attended, with between 200 or 300 people. But of course that's in the biggest city of his home market. Oh well, I should be accustomed to being totally off people's wavelength. | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 3772 Registered: 03-2005 |
Trou, I was too cowardly to stick around and try to talk to him last year. I realize he can probably speak English but I feel total shame about not being able to speak French. | ||
