Not for everone I know, but I'd hate to see something as important as the "Orb List Top 10 (Not Including The Orb) List" go by without a mention of Simple Minds. Throughout the years and all the wierd temporary obsessions their (middle era) stuff has always seemed to get a play. (and they sure beat the reggae/marilyn manson/tchaikovsky crunch I'm doing at the moment). Thanks everone for the heads up on music missed cheers bb P.S. anyone know why Dub Squad only made 2 cd's? _________________________________________________________________ Wonder if the latest virus has gotten to your computer?

10000 Maniacs = lamest, most boring concert I've ever seen (my date fell asleep) as well as most annoying music ever made by humans. _________________________________ www.psychicreform.com Change your mind. _________________________________ "Life is a round of miniature golf only larger, and with a more ambiguous final score." -- Zippy the Pinhead _________________________________

Can't remember what they sound like (and cannot download at work). Can someone give me a reminder? eg: "I love you baby....oowwaaaa..aaaah, dah, dah, da, da," etc, etc. Hey Alan are you to get a mention on the thrash/simon's new stuff? which track? cheers, bbroo _________________________________________________________________ Wonder if the latest virus has gotten to your computer?

riviting scoop buddy. No seriously I'm jealous of your job. I never get even closed to the public limelight, except on radio for some odd reason. I was told I was going be interviewd on a radio show in River Falls Wi last night and they'd cb in 5 min (a friend's show ending). I slammed a hot-toddy and a spleef I was so nervous, now I know how cattle feel when going into slaughter chute. No orb topics came up though... once I asked Art Bell about the Orb on air... see Feb 13th 2001 episode I think... about LSD and the likes. Anyone notice Daytline NBC use LFC now alot, just last friday during "Tricks of the Trade: Used Car Buying Tips."

Get yer mullet on!
by Mick Szucs 11 Dec '03

My top ten: 1. Motley Crue 2. Poison 3. Quiet Riot 4. Scorpions 5. Warrant 6. Cinderella 7. Skid Row 8. Killer Dwarves 9. Whitesnake 10. Guns and Roses And some artists that aren't quite as good as those but still get listened to occassionally (in no particular order after Shpongle and Tool) Shpongle Tool Hallucinogen Growling Mad Scientists Infected Mushroom Dj Food Kid Koala Skinny Puppy Rage Against the Machine Beck Gong Tori Amos Bob Marley Burning Spear Aphex Twin u-Ziq Monolake and it goes on... Narrowing to ten seems near impossible... Peace out. Mick "The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate." - Noam Chomsky
