Fantastic Si ! Used to have this one,good to see it again ! Ta for the last few youve put up as well ! Any news on when the all the madmen launch gig is ?

Cheers Chris - yes, it's a decent fanzine this one - some ace interviews - I particularly enjoyed re-reading NMA - I don't half miss Rob, he was a great bloke.

I've not seen an announcement about the ATM launch gig yet - it must be soon coming. I know Mark is currently embroiled in a legal issue about his gaff and I think that is rightly their major concern at the moment. Will you be along to the gig?

All the best

Hello Si.....hopefully i'll get along to the gig,depending on when it is,ive got quite a few gigs lined up between now and december,so hopefully it wont clash with something ive already got tickets for ! I eventually invested in a share in all the madmen.....it will be good to see some new releases from them especially if they are all done as well as the Andy T cd ! Chris

Hi Chris, excellent, glad to hear you took the plunge with the share - money well invested I reckon - especially if as you say it results in quality product such as Andy's debut long player. I saw yesterday that they've only have 10shares remaining up for grabs - I expect they'll be snapped up soon.

Btw, next post - Voice of Buddha will need to be consumed with a hearty dose of salt since it sticks the boot into The Stranglers and Buzzcocks!!

Take care
