Oh!
(dumbfounded silence)
Oh!
I had *thought* that Jay's and my courtship was suspiciously strange, but
I never *expected*...I never *knew*.
Gosh, this explains so much!
If we're all part of a collective, what are the benefits--I mean, besides
being part of The Drew (tm) consortium? and having perfectly arranged
marriages? Pitch it to me, baby. I'm part of a competitive nation and I
just need to know what's in it for me.
like, will the HiveMind take on all Drew and OtR related medical expenses
(I have some of those, actually...) and ticket costs--and travel
expenses--or, what if we swap--the HiveMind takes care of these costs and
I would buy OtR merchandise of equal or greater value and distribute it
amoung the masses. as I'll eventually run out of friends that need OtR
discs, I'll just start leaving them around town, with a post-it stuck to
the cover: "for you" in a perfect forgery of Linford's handwriting.
although, he doesn't seem to be the post-it note type...

It's not exactly banned, but I have an imported American copy of "Avalon"
by
Stephen Lawhead, which was repeatedly turned down by UK publishers, and
has
still not been published in this country. I assume the reason is that it
deals with a highly immoral UK monarchy and a corrupt government.
Controversial? I think not!

Hi Everyone.
I'm kind of new around here but I wanted to tell you all something. This
weekend I found a rare OTR cd that I bought for 4 dollars! It's an advance
copy of the Films for Radio album and the versions are a bit different.
Sounds like a rough mix or maybe demos or something...and there is a
secret
track: A funky and really cool version of "If nothing else".
I was thinking that if anyone wants a CD-R copy of this, I'd be willing to
send it to the first 5 people who respond to this email address:
greenbelly@hotmail.com. Put "OVER THE RHINE" in the subject line so that I
don't delete your e-mail. I'll send it for free but you'll need to send me
like a check for $5 or something to cover shipping because I don't know
how
much that would be. Plus, I think $5 is fair for my trouble and cost of
CD-R
plus Shipping. I'm open to negotiate that, though.
Here is the tracklist as printed on the CD. You'll notice the sequence is
different too:
1. The World Can Wait
2. If Nothing Else
3. Whatever You Say
4. Fairpoint Diary
5. I Radio Heaven
6. Give Me Strength
7. When I Go
8. Goodbye
9. The Body is a Stairway of Skin
10. Moth
11. Little Blue River
12. Secret Track: Give Me Strength (Alternate Version)
Have a good day,
James
