Hmmm... last I heard (18 months ago or so), Andy West was against ever reforming the Dregs. It seems this all came out when they got the former band members together when whatever label released a 3-inch CD of some Dregs tunes... not sure if they were new tunes, or re-mixes of old tunes. I think this was supposed to be a collector's item, of some sort. Speaking of the Dregs... what is a "Drexe", Tapioca? Was that just a typo, or am I missing something? :) Herb: The only thing I have to add to your comments on Hank Jr. (besides the fact that I agree wholeheartedly with your summation of him) is this: if you ever hear even *one* of his songs, you have a 89 percent chance of discovering who his father was... not because he sounds like him, and not because you know his name, but because in 89 percent of all Hank Jr. songs, he tells you who his daddy was...! Damn proud, that boy. Dawn: In regards to "Bananarama splits" (you should have seen how I typoed *that* one the first time, folks!)... I can't tell you how much whipped cream goes on one, because this is a family-oriented list. :) Rando: Har har... 15 years is way too long to agonize over two Rush tunes. Someone help Rando resolve this. Please! Mark Hessman: Eureka! I wish I had a failing memory like yours. You were correct all the way 'round on the Atavachron, even down to the name of the character, Mr. Atoz (At Oz... is *that* the pun?). Turns out Holdsworth is a real Trek fanatic... he'd be right at home on BitNet, eh? ... who else? "n.n."
