DEAR TAMMY BAKER (RE BLISS BY P. CAREY)

What absolute tripe! The first 250 pages of the book are pure drivel and it is only the last 50 which redeem it at all - and obviously what Neil Finn wrote about.

If you want to compliment the band (and we have no qualms about that) then be true to them - BE ORIGINAL - not copy out the blurb on the inside of the book.

All our combined loveliness,
The Crowdie in the Lowlands & Sister Madly

Well! That deserves a reply, Tammy!

REPLY TO CARL McCOY

Not everyone who voted for River Phoenix did so merely because of his death.

I voted for River because he was a great actor and (like me) a vegan - not because of his death although his spirit lives on.

However, it's true that River can't appreciate the praise from his grave - he was cremated.

Are vegans from the planet vege?

 

EARLY SINGLE REVIEW: DISARM by SMASHING PUMPKINS

The release date of Disarm is Feb. 21 - and it's one of the most intense tracks off the Siamese Dream LP.

There's no guitar sounds on Disarm, just an acoustic guitar and Corgan's heartfelt lyrics based around a painful childhood. Buy this for the B side, too.

And remember kids, Smashing Pumpkins aren't grunge!

Cheers,
Geek, USA

That's a beauty - a top b-side as well!

IT'S BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS FOR YOU!

 

A POEM ABOUT BEANS

They're orange and round
And are sound as a pound
Vic & Bob they love beans
From the start it was in their genes

They give you wind power
Specially whilst in the shower
The more you slurp
The more you burp

Whether it's Heinz or Cross & Blackwell
If you don't eat beans, go to Hell!

Mr Maceiter's Register, Marine

Passionate about beans? Good to hear!!!

BEANS MEANS 'ZINE!
