Bless You in Canada
by Rob_King 17 Jul '02

17 Jul '02

Does anybody happen to know of any good mailorder record stores in Canada that I can order "Bless You" from, without having to pay an arm and a leg for it? On a completely unrelated note, I picked up DJ Shadow's "Private Press" last weekend. It's great! Actually quite awe-inspiring what the man can do with his plastic, being as he explicitly uses records for the source (and I think vocals were added on one track, but that's it). Also recently read an article about how he happened to luck in and get thousands of European new-wave records from the 1980s that were vaulted up for 15 years or so. Anyhow, I fully recommend it. Cheers, Rob

A (hypothetical) Orb convention...that's the best idea/suggestion I've read in a long while on this list! Should be nice to meet all you Orbheads...

I didn't realise that the 2003 event was intended to have big name bands. Who is paying these costs? No offence but this sounds more like a "cool dream" to me. I thought that we were just getting a bunch of crazy orb fans together to play CD's in a field - "Orbstock - 2003" In defence of my cool dream: 1) cut price tickets from Europe to Australia are advertised everywhere, 2) we don't need any big named bands, but they are certainly welcome (there was a hellova turn out of European bands at the last African Eclipse), and 3)I always though Alex liked visiting Oz in the summertime. Anyway, maybe you are right, but I cannot wait until 2003, so see the rest of you at both events. (I'll e-mail individuals nearer the time with our groups details)

BOB MP3 question
by John Goelzer 16 Jul '02

16 Jul '02

First of all, I'm super excited about BOB14. The tracks sound great. On a practical note, I'm interested in using one of the tracks in my set on an upcoming tour, even if it means playing it from MiniDisc (there's no way I'll get the vinyl in time). I'm considering ordering the MP3s for this purpose, but am wondering about MP3 "turnaround time." When you order a BOB as MP3, do they email you a password to download it right away, or do you have to wait for a certificate to show up via snail mail? I need to jump on this like this weekend or next week, so immediate access would be ideal. I also don't want to place the order and still be waiting for the access codes when we leave, as then the MP3 money will be wasted (I'll be ordering multiples on wax regardless). Any info appreciated. JG
