Those of you lucky enough to be heading for the Budget Rock festival in San Francisco on Sunday night (Oct 5th) will be chuffed to learn that Cyril Jordan's new band, Magic Christian, are taking the stage directly before the Fleshtones.

Kids, Chip Zepp, who is one of our brethren in Dictators/MWK fandom, has undertaken the noble project of trying to compile a complete list of all the dates and venues the guys have ever played over the yrs, with set lists. This is an open plea for help - search your memory banks, where did you see them back in the day? Who opened, or who did they open for? Any set lists in the bottom of drawers anywhere? Old ads or listings? Please give him a shout if you can help in any way. He's at cwzepp@yahoo.com, his results thus far are posted here.

RIP: Paul Burlison.

Just my luck; for whatever reason my e-mail program wiped itself clean, which means I've lost all my previous correspondence and the contents of my address books !. So if you're waiting for a reply from me, please let me know. In any case I'd appreciate it if everybody I'm contact with would drop me a line so at least I'll get your address again.
What a way to start the week........ (contact me here).
