I'm a secondary school teacher.  And in my 12-year-olds class just before
Christmas, I asked them all what their favourite song/band was.  About 60%
of the whole class said Scooter!  Personally, I found this rather useful,
and the following day brought in a CDR of KLF singles and showed them some
of the musical similarities.  This lead on to a discussion of how pop stars
can write books (they were amazed by this!) and for once I seemed rather
"cool" to the class! So Scooter DO occasionally have their uses!

On a slight different topic, has anyone on the list ever brought up the
topic of the band "V/VM"?  I don't claim to be an expert, but they seem to
be quite indebted to the KLF.  Their website can be found here:
http://www.brainwashed.com/vvm/ and one of their "various artists" albums
contains a track called "@3 AM Paul Robeson  Says - No to Eternal":
http://rock-music.mainseek.com/114211/94/Vx2F8xVm_Test_Records.html.  Sadly,
the track does not appear to feature any KLF samples.

Have a good weekend, everyone.
