schizoid reissue
maybe this is old news, but downtown at Fred's Record's, scoping out the selection of 7 singles, i came across a 10th anniversary SCHIZOID 7, a reissue of the 1985(well duh!) release, the beer thief(i think), with 4 rad songs in all, including possessed to golf and death deliverer. the original copy, i am pleased to announce, is still going strong up at CHMR-FM-your only alternative in st. john's. SCHIZOID, if anyone would like to know, included phil winters of BUNG on guitar, production/sound engineer boy don ellis, formerly of TOUGH JUSTICE and RISE(resposible for some HARDSHIP POST recordings and the BUNG CD _and_ will turn the knobs for the POTATOBUG recording) who is also a new dad, on bass, and mountain bike king chris jerret on vocals(i think). i don't recognize the other 2 guys, but maybe i do know them(or maybe not). i think wallace hammond, who recorded most of DANGER: FALLING ROCK and was in DA SLYME way, WAY back recorded it too, and it all took place back in march of 1985(ah, grade 2...). mysteriously(not really), it's on some punk label out of ontario; does anyone(hub?) know what one, i forget? anyway, it's only $4.98 for 4 songs, from one of the best bands to come from these pine clad hills, and you should pick it up cause it's got balls. ooo yeah. lust, jc destroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroyd jeremy clarke naughty by nature, st. john's NF Canada and white by choice, [EMAIL PROTECTED]the sound of my voice makes your panties moist-the bloodhound gang everythingeverythingevrythingeverythingeverythingeverythingeverythingeverythin
A Band By Any Other Name
OK, for the benefit of the newbies, I'll post it to everyone. This came out in the Coast last spring, the infamous Sloan edited issue. Set your screens to 80 column and no word wrap! Andrew ps.

Chris has them located right next door to Registered Vote but not connected to anyone else. His note reads: Chris Murphy's my name and I'm taking credit or blame for this Halifax music scene family tree. The tree itself was actually more twisted than this so I ended up eliminating some lines as it was getting too messy and hard to follow. I didn't put every band I could think of either because I couldn't connect them to anyone else or I didn't like the band. But the lines I did draw I think are true. I was relying on others near the top in the 'before my time' section. Sue me if I'm wrong. He also writes a list of Honourable Mentions: Null Set, Redd Leader, The Nerve, Next X, The Quirk, Cooter Family, Roland Blinn, Basic English, Phycus, Aimless, Donner Party Reunion, Merge, Tetris That's 68 bands on Chris Murphy's chart and I can claim to have seen 17 of them live (=25%). There must be some longtime scenesters on this list who have seen many more than that. Anyone? james _ _ James R.

Re: The Jammin' Monkey Again..

orange glass releases
Hello... boy I'm up early. Uh, I was just wondering, b/c I'm always really ignorant about things like this, if OG has released anything else besides that 7 w/ Fate, Wait a Day, etc on it... I bought that at the Eric's Trip show a few weeks ago and have sort of looked around for more but not found anything... curious, Shanan BTW... Alex, I'm gonna kill you for that Michael Bolton reference... you deserve to spend New Year's at the OLP show. ...speaking of New Year's... I haven't been in the city for, oh, the last ten years or so on the 31st of Dec, any suggestions for what to do in Toronto for a good time? Any cool all- ages shows? So far my only invitation has been to partake in an orgy, which... hmm, well we'll see ;)

Re: Sloan Lyrics-Medium Rare
someone asked about the song american groove and i wrote: american groove is an MC5 song. and then chris trowbridge corrected me... don't mean to be picky but...american ruse is an MC5 song. New York Groove is an Ace Frehely song. Groove is in the Heart is a Deeelite song. We're an American Band is a Grand Funk Railroad song. I don't know any American Groove, though it would be in good company as a song title... hey chris, you're absolutely right. actually, jay corrected me after i posted that. i think where this all stems from is the sloan cover of that song which you can hear them do live in that concert that is being rebroadcast on dec 23. if i remember correctly it sounds like they are saying american groove. anyways. yeah. american ruse, mc5. that's the song. james - _James R.
