*  I tend to be very forgiving of artists, especially of Steven's caliber,
because he is so great it is just mindblowing, and if he never did another
thing I'd never forget*
* I was just so happy for him to see he made the major label........(they
made)*
*Good god am I glad I still have all my original PT CD's.......it looks to
me like he's not only razor-clever with the music but with the marketing as
well.......it looks downright DANGEROUS to collect them.....you'd need to
buy each album in about 6 different versions right???*
*I have only played the new one about 3 times and indeed it may still impact
me, not concerned though....I'll pick up anything by those geniuses so long
as I can afford*
*it still ain't (isn't, don't know whats with me and the "aints"
today) Hawkwind though!!!!!  *
*Is the Radioactive Toy promo CD single one of the collecters bombs???  I
had 2, but at least "F*ckhead"  Eric Johnson (who _is_ lucky I have not
removed his limbs, I'm still debating) left me one*
*did the mystery of the name Porcupine Tree ever get "solved"???*
