Whats the difference between gold and silver? What is Lazlo compensating for by invoking "emergency moderation?" too funny. When the nerd from Charles Schwab steps in and cuts fans off from an actual member of a band then its cause for mutiny. OT or not, you are making a grave error. Anyone else see the self-defeating result of this? Do we want new people to step in and tell us what we have been reading for 10 years is too revealing and lively and therefore should be censored? _______________________________________________ give back you slags: http://mentor.org _______________________________________________ kermit kerm for children with special needs: http://www.heaven666.org/images/own3d%20by%20kermit.jpg _______________________________________________

Agreed, this song should be 9 min instead of 18, shave off the beginning gunk. Oh, and Ernie, this is about the orb. Thats an Orb song. There is a gold tin as well as silver? Is it better or whats the deal? Happy Holidays everyone, except 'the mole.' -- http://hydrallus.blogspot.com

Re: [Orb] Orbert Question Mark
by bytesizenun 14 Dec '04

Just speculation here, but I wonder if Orbert is a reference to Fripp's first name: Robert. Typical of The Orb - many mixes, albums, and names always have a twist. I wounldn't be surprised. Oh Thrash?

I know the answer is somewhere in the archive if you have the time to dig around. I vaguely remember someone saying it was from comedy record from the late 60's. I could be wrong.

Has anyone got any comments on this? In case the moderator doesn't know that this is a relevant topic, its the newest release: Orb vs Meat Beat Manifesto.. Mr moderator sir. How bothersome. Anyhow, its decent, but not exactly worth 20 USD unless your a collector of such things orb. I agree , the delete key works fine, even if you burn it with a lighter... i know this for a fact. We have an ACTUAL member of the band posting on the board, and yet brand-new people see fit to wine and thus censor it. How many fan-boards can boast that, and how many can boast they shoo him away. Live a lil' people. -- http://hydrallus.blogspot.com

I've undone the emergency mod hold on the list. Any further personal attacks or perpetuation of seriously-offtopic threads (e.g., political flamewars, your favorite videogames, etc.) will result in the posters being moved to mod-only status or booted. -- Ernie Longmire (http://www.studio-nibble.com/)

Hi. I want to know something. What is the sample in the version of Towers of Dub from U.F.Off? It starts approx. 5 minutes into the track and lasts a couple of minutes. It's a dazed "yankee-hippy" being questioned by a Bernie Mac / swampbilly type a' guy. What is this sample & where's it from??? Much appreciated, Imakilyu
