Peter Gabriel
| 
Jul 17 15:44 UTC 2000 |
For the last few years I've been poking fun at the slow production
rate of "former rock star" Peter Gabriel. He had a studio album in 1986,
and then another one in 1992, and then... anyway, import copies of
his new album OVO are now in stock at Tower Records in East Lansing
for $25.
Any news on a USA release? I don't feel motivated to pay the $8 premium
to get the import a few weeks early. An ad I saw in a UK publication
says there is a Special Limited "Millenium Dome" Edition with a complete
bonus disk, but no news on what is on that second disk.

I was mad when he played at Hill Auditorium ... and didn't do
"Games Without Frontiers"

As long as I hear "Mercy Street", "Red Rain", and "Kiss That Frog", I'll be
happy. He can just forget to play "Sledgehammer", "Big Time", "Steam", and the
other Top 40 hits. Blecch.

The exceedingly annoying site design caused my browser to GPF,
but have you checked www.petergabriel.com for a release date?

well, the music is all for that Millennium Dome in london, so I wonder if it
will make it as a release here.

I'd like to hear him perform "Don't Give Up" with Kate Bush live. Of course,
she's still a FORMER rock star.
Hopefully, she'll record another album too.

re 6 - Mike, Tony doesn't look anything up on the internet that he can ask
on Grex or M-Net.

You never know what silly question will spawn a discussion.
I couldn't get any useful information out of www.petergabriel.com.
I was hoping for a description of what's in the Limited Edition
-- I can't even find a confirmation that what Amazon is selling for
$29 is the version with a second disk which was advertisted in FOLK ROOTS.

re:10 Didn't Kate Bush die a couple of years ago? (that's what somebody told
me...)
I have heard that song with Paula Cole singing her part.

I'm reasonably confident that if Kate Bush had died I would have heard
about it. She was listed about a year ago in a silly 'Q' magazine article
about Britain's Wealthiest Rock Stars, that's the last I heard from her.
