Greetings to one and all from Tranquility Base.

Just a few items to note:

First off is the FINAL concert of the Romance of Sustain tour in
Leeds this coming Wednesday. For those of you still unsure of
yourselves about this, take my word for it: GO SEE THE SHOW! If
you don't want to believe some American check out the posts at
the 'Northern Dreamer' message boards [you must register to use
this service]. Everybody who has seen a show has loved it. Plus,
it's Bill's first concert tour in a couple of decades or so.

Second up is that there are a VERY limited number of copies of
'Luxury Lodge' still available through Rooms With Brittle Views. This
is a superb album. And it's surprising just how songs just keep
getting better every time i listen to the album.

Finally, Be Bop Deluxe has been heard on XM Satellite Radio.
Specifically, the tracks 'Fair Exchange' and the live 'Shine' have
been heard on XM channel #40-Deep Tracks. Ah, but you don't
HAVE XM satellite radio and don't want to pay for it. There is a
solution, you can go to the XM web site and listen to the feed of
your choice. At least, that's what i've been doing for the past
week or so.

Bookkeeping - Fixed the problem with the "August 31" date on
the Start page so that the date reads correctly. [i'm embarrassed
to admit what i did wrong, so i won't.] Updated the Live section
to reflect recent shows and added updates to the 'Where Are They
Now?' page in the Discography with added entries for Ian Leese
and Ian Nelson appearances at Nelsonica.

That's it for today, good luck to Bill on Wednesday.
