awesome idea there.
a friend of mine recently saw Heaven 17 headline at a small club in
London, and they remixed all thier old tunes - more electronica though
than AJ. they were opening for Erasure in the UK, and i hope they
come along with them to the US (i've got tkts for the Erasure show
at Radio City Music Hall, June 3).

on the Alison Moyet note, i remember seeing her back in '84 at
the Beacon Theatre...whatta voice.
you're right Elson, back in the 80's, i thought that was the shintz ;->

peace,
