The first thing I thought of was KKK. Mainly cos of the costumes and the constant focussing on the drummers. (I love the fact that jimmy has his shades on outside the hood btw) The point I was making is that the KKK may not be controversial in the UK because UK society is full of racist c*nts! To sum up, the whole performance is completely tongue in cheek by b&j, but is meant to represent the kind of elusive underworld mysteriousness of the (RAW) jams & the KKK and other organisations (real or fiction) which believe they have some connection to practices from hundreds/thousands of years ago. I think b&j were intentionally being provocative in a mischievous kind of way in order to gain further publicity for their record. (no really?) It can't just be dismissed as a 'novelty no.1' by bruno brookes, with imagery like that. -----Original Message----- From: klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Adam Wolfson Sent: 16 September 2007 22:02 To: 'All bound for Mu-Mu Land.' Subject: RE: [KLF] timelords at totp 88 Well, when I saw the costumes, it didn't really remind me of the KKK completely. Now that I look back on it, the only similarities I see between them are the pointed hats. Otherwise, I just don't really see the KKK when I see the JAMs performing on stage. The KKK probably isn't as controversial in the UK as it is here in the USA. I don't believe they really branched out internationally. They reached the apex of their power in the 1920s, and saw a sort of "revival" during the Civil Rights Movement. Other than that, I'd probably see them as a fringe group today, compared to what they once were in the past. -----Original Message----- From: klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of RiCh!

On the bbc at Christmas?! I would expect that the costumes were supposed to be reminiscent of an ancient occult organisation (the jams), but I am surprised that they were not interpreted as being cross burners by the uk public. This would appeal to the 'you what? you what? you what?' aspect of uk society. Perhaps that is not controversial to the uk society? -----Original Message----- From: klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Adam Wolfson Sent: 16 September 2007 21:40 To: 'All bound for Mu-Mu Land.'

Last I read, Gary Glitter is still locked up in Vietnam for all that disgusting crap he did over there. -----Original Message----- From: klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of RiCh!
