I'd offer my place, but...well... There are certainly enough Love-Hounds in Austin (and the rest of Texas, I suppose) to pull something together for this twice-a-decade event. I may be able to come up with some rare videos and maybe a new promo EP or two, along with the totally unrare 12" import EP and matching 3-song CD (both available at Waterloo Records since last week). Maybe even a European (German) copy of the full TSW CD a few days early. If someone could provide an open house and a loud stereo, we could welcome the new music to Austin. By the way Austin Love-Hounds, John Aielli played side one (from the promo cassette) Tuesday morning on Eklektikos, and he won't say when he's going to play the rest. Keep that dial set to 90.7... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Williams ...!cs.utexas.edu!halley!steve (512)-244-8252 (has recorder) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
