Hell, that's only 6 people max on one list. I'm not sure how many we had

Umm... forget about what I said about Musikjournalen Pop on monday.
Seems like they won't broadcast any live music after all. They'll
just be there partying. Though live broadcasts from Kulturhuset will
be a reality soon, they say.

Yeah, that might be usefull. i was just thinking what some pervert might do
with a list of adresses of people on this list.... if he's like, a
scan-indie fetisist.... or something ;)... no, the truth is that if i start
typing in all the email adresses and snailmail adresses it will be full of
typos, and then evrybody will be sending me corrections wich i again have to
send to the list... and the end result is a total mess. so i'm posting the
trees with the email adresses again + i'll put it in with the tape, and then
you will contact each other and find out the adress of the person next on
your tree.... ok?

Okay, that sounds reasonable. A good way to handle it if people move
around, change internet suppliers etc. as well. One always gets the
correct address.

I'm not an expert on The Idyls, so I guess there can be people on this list
that might be able to give you some more info. But maybe I can give you
some help.
I think that Idyls is a band from Linkoping. At least they come from
somewhere in this neighbourhood. I saw them this summer, as opening act
when Broder Daniel performed at Skylten in Linkoping. They didn't really
sound like Broder Daniel, though. I haven't heard the bands you mentioned,
but I would describe their music as some kind of american-influenced
"not-to-serious" punk-pop. They built their performance around some sort of
jungle theme, with monkey imitations and bananas thrown at the audience
(didn't Union Carbide do that in the 80's?). I also noticed that they
didn't use a bass guitar, they used maracas instead!!
Guess this wasn't much of a help. As I said, maybe someone else can tell us
some more about the Idyls. Right now I look forward very much to the debut
(mini-)album from another Linkoping band - The Pusjkins. If it sounds as
good as their performance as the opening act for The Posies did, I would
advice everyone on the list to give it an ear (or two).

adresses of Erik and Mo. send 'em to me, so i'll get the tapes going.
Because of lack of time, money, a copy machine (is it called a xerox or
something) and willpower i will not make individual inlay sheets to all the
people who are getting the tape. i'll just send it as email, wich you will
then save if you want to know what you're listening to. boogie.

I'll do up an inlay for it (as I have for the other chain tapes that have
passed through my hands - aren't I nice?) and pass it on in the package,
then people can copy it or not as they wish.

I'd first recommend the simple, but complete (as far as I know) discography

Second - the hard to find question... That's a good question in fact - I
haven't seen any of their early singles for ages anywhere. Record fairs,

I have no information at all about the single, though I have also heard
it on the radio several times, so I suspect it really has been released,
though I haven't seen it around here either. :-/

The single is called "fishtank" and it got three + in a review by Per
Bjurman in Aftonbladet last week.

I saw Semi-naked yesterday on ZTV:s Abra Had Abra, reruns today and on

Shouldnt be too hard to find their early singles at all. Dont know where
you live. But in Sweden it shouldnt be that hard to find them. Nahh ;D
Get the new album it was released last week, pretty good. A bit Cardigans
sometimes of'cuz. Just get the "In lemon grove" single or ... theres alot
of good singles.

Hmm, as people helped out the last time I asked about a band on the list,
I thought I'd give it a shot with another band: Moonshake. They play with
Archers Of Loaf here in Linkoping, and all I have ever heard is one song
on an "Independent Top 20" compilation CD from 1992. I didn't realize they
were still around.. Do they still sound the same, kind of Sultans of Ping
FC-like, or have they ... umm, gotten better?

Oh, good you reminded me to post a small note that this video is shown
on this week's Z-TV show "Abra Had Abra" as well as a small segment
from the video in yesterday's Z-TV Nytt together with an interview +
report from the re-mixing of their album (now moved to March).
About the video:
Wasn't too impressed by the video, though it's pretty funny at times.
And Tobbe was right about the beard thing. :-)
Another thing I also meant to say was that I'm disappointed with the
version of "Semi-Naked" on their CD single. It's really not at all as
good as it is on their demo (and the 7" promo single) - it has definitely
been "over-produced" or something. So the lucky winners of the 7" single
in the Scan-Indie Fidget contest (and those on the Scan-Indie Swedish
Indie tape chain) will actually have / have the best version in their
hands. If you ask me. Hopefully the re-mix of the album now will take
care of the strange first production. The CD single version of
"Teddybear Baby" on the other hand is a gem. And if you get a chance
to see the band live, that's when they sound the best, with added long
guitar-orgasmic heaven ends. Yummy!
