Hi Nancy, The best place to visit in London is the St Johns Tavern. Most of the UK garage bands play it (correction ALL of them) and you can find a September gig listing and some reviews at: http://idun.unl.ac.uk/~hfa9colemas/western.htm The next Headcoats/Headcoatees gig is on Thurs 26th September. Look out for an idiot in a Fleshtones T-Shirt. He occasionaly buys drinks. :-) Steve ------------------------------ From: Hitomi I Date: Thu, 19 Sep 1996 20:09:25 +0900 Subject: RE: Tokyo Beatles & sake Hi Glenn The 4 Beatles songs CD of Tokyo Beatles is not good. Because in truth they didn't play temselves at the time. They sung only ,with old styled studio musicains playing. I said about one more new CD which was performed by themselves! (The sound of 1965 solid record CDSOL1031) In this CD they played Slow down,Eight days a week,She loves You,Ticket to ride Don't let me be misunderstood,The last time, Any way you want it I can't Stop,True love ways,All day and all of the night(this is including Banzai Freek Beat >comp of Japanese '60s from Australia) Mrs. Brown you've got a lovely daughter. All in English. This is something strange ,but I think this is a oldest garage stuff in Japan. And more foolish name in Japan,Tokyo Ventures,Crazy Beatles. in '80s Tokyo Sex pistoles (I think this is a joke) I don't know these sound at all. Hitomi(from Tokyo) >> From: Glenn Sadin Sent: Thursday, September 19, 1996 3:14 AM To: Bomp@bolis.com Subject: Tokyo Beatles & sake Hitomi sez... There was a band named Tokyo Beatles in '65 Japan. They released some flexi disk and disappered with unknown. We thought they are not cool because of theri foolish name for long, Anyone didn't care them, so the disk was not reisuued. But in this year their disk are reissued as CD. And we astonished to find they are cool !! There is a 4-song CD by the Tokyo Beatles that's been imported to the USA. Pretty goofy versions of Beatles songs, some sung in Japanese! ------------------------------ From: dothepop@ix.netcom.com (Lisa Lindstrom) Date: Thu, 19 Sep 1996 07:55:37 -0700 Subject: Re: Bomp V96 #95 Actually, I heard that the Minstrels are living in Seattle now and play around here quite a bit....they've moved around alot in their career.

But hey, there are actual musicians on this list, and maybe they can help. I*m the proud first-time owner of a NEW ELECTRIC GUITAR. In order to keep my costs down, I opted to purchase an inexpensive *gig bag* rather than a hard shell carrying case. Here*s my problem. I*m leaving town by airline--and I*d like to take my instrument with me. Friends and co-workers have suggested placing the gig-bagged instrument into a hanging garment bag and asking the flight attendants to place this in one of the on-board compartments. I wouldn*t even think of checking this thing via regular baggage handling. Is this a reasonable approach, or should I just leave the instrument home while I travel. Clearly the guitar is too large to stick under the seat, and buying another ticket is out of the question. Feel free to respond to me directly if you prefer. Thanks for any advice you can provide. You can be sure I=27ll be reading alt.guitar from now = on.
