http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=875071579 Not me. I wonder how high this will go...(especially given the prevarications (also note how the seller doesn't mention the website's address)) I hope the "real" packaging is better than this. Chris

Just a quick comment: Granted, Cydonia's spotty. I stopped listening to it after a few weeks, but I have to say there's a few gems there: Ghostdancing, Thursday's Keeper, Terminus... but it's actually Hamlet of Kings that surprised me in the long run, it's quite a grower. Another fan waiting for the Orb to become relevant again... (Aubrey 2... barely "ok", but most of it is basically all the second-rate stuff that was excluded from the first for a reason.)Get more from the Web.

i picked up a copy of a promo cd(r) today of the new S7/Derrick May album. according to the S7 website (www.a-wave.com) this is: "...a compilation of all the tracks System7 has made with Derrick May including unreleased material, remixes and remastered versions of the originals. Planned release date in the UK is now July 15th 2002." as there's not a tracklisting on the site yet, here it is for those interested (as written on the colour insert included with it): _SYSTEM7-DERRICKMAY_MYSTERIOUS TRAVELLER (AAWCD008) _001_altitude_maydaymix (7:42) _002_mysterioustraveller_groovyintentmix (8:04) _003_bigskycity_maydaymix (9:29) _004_icon_montagemix (rhythim is rhythim) (8:48) _005_prototype1_electron mix (6:45) _006_fractal liaison (2:09) _007_mysterioustraveller_firemix (6:30) _008_bigskycity_abovethecloudsmix (6:27) _009_e-merge (6:38) _010_overview (6:06) cheers, --- Smiley __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [Orb] Pink Floyd Orb Connection?

sorry for posting on a very old post, that is really cool its the same guy pratt, seems to make sense. do people in the UK share their names like that is they have kids and get married? like the "wright-pratt" comment. i mean ive heard of people doing that here in the USA but usually is only when children are had out of wed lock and the mother does not want the children to only carry the fathers name. just curious cause you said it may not travel well and did you mean that it is a common custom to split names like that in the UK in marriage? i know this is so not anything to do with the orb but it did spark my curiosity. anyway let me know if youre not too busy smiley or anyone else who could answer that.

Well, the show i was reffering to was the show they did on july 6 2001 @ DOUR festival in Belgium.. I fucking was looking forward to it a lot!! At one point Alex was trying to match up a record with the playing sequence, and it was sounding freakin' horrible! this went on for a pretty long time, but fortunately LX was fed up with it and took the record from the platter and BROKE it! Cool... It was kinda sad actualy in the end.. The weather was turning into a typhoon and they stopped the show and played 'singing in the rain'... Too bad.. PS, did anyone catch LX spin in Amsterdam last week? i could not make it unfortunately..
