There is nothing to be compared in Europe to the black and whites relations (or general absence of relations) in the US. To put it in a nutshell, people flirting with extreme right in Europe are generally more xenophobic than racist, while it tends to be the other way round in the US. Also, people termed extreme right in Europe have a political agenda which is pretty close to the ones that, say, Georges Wallace or Newt Grinch had or have. Real extremist things like white supremacism or aryan shit (not to mention militiaes, which are not possible here where arms are actually banned) are very specific to America, as they are dealing with subjects which are still touchy in Europe, where actual memories from the nazi times are still vivid (except in the UK, something which can explain for the childish provocations like Siouxsie's swastikas or New Order's name, bands which are not having an ideology anyway). This said, people in Europe can at the same time be xenophobes and have leftist or communist options, all the more so in the UK which owns the toughest working class in Europe, or the thoughest classes relationship, should I say. Hence the surprising lyrics in some of the Smiths songs: in a Jean Genet (read: homosexual) way, Morrissey is fascinated by the brit working class and allows himself, from time to time, to revel into some of its most dubious beliefs. Pretty immature, if you ask me. P. >I think this whole associating white supremacy with decent rock n roll >act is quite disheartening. I like to listen to (early) Siouxsie and the >Banshees myself.

Yes, they were involved in the Red Wedge thing back in the 1980s, an anti-racism campaign using rock music to take the message to "the kids". However, being supporters of the Labour Party *these days* merely makes you a another shade of blue...not red at all. It's always been the case that whoever you vote for you're still voting for capitalism, but nowadays the so-called Labour Party are doing things that Thatcher only dreamed of doing. Anyway, this isn't a politics list so I'll shut up now. -- PJ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2001 05:51:54 -0800 (PST) From: Iam Fuzzco Subject: Re: Fleshtones & Neckbreakers Feb. 16 & 17 - --- "T.

Fleshtones/Neckbreakers are a powerful 1-2 punch. These two bands are good pals and play off each other during their respective sets. For a sample of what this is like, go to: http://www.wfmu.org/jones/archives.html And click on: NOVEMBER 26, 2000 - "FatPack 2000 Tour" Live from THE LOOP LOUNGE featuring The Fleshtones & The Swingin' Neckbreakers __________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2001 09:16:10 -0500 From: "Evan Davies" Subject: Re: Fleshtones & Neckbreakers Feb. 16 & 17 > The Swingin' Neckbreakers are not playing the Iota show. Dave is correct; they're doing a (free!) show at Manitoba's in NYC that night. And the next night, Sunday the 18th, they're playing in Philly with the New Pornographers. That's the night before President's Day... did somebody say "road trip?" And while we're on the subject, the Neckbreakers and Woggles will be at Maxwells on Friday, March 9!

Of course, a former Labourite like Ken Livingstone is also an indication of Labour's socialism. There are those that want RED KEN to come back. You are right about the Tony Blair control that bastadised the socialist message of a once noble political party. In America, I am a member of the Socialist Party USA which is America's version of what Labour once used to be. By the same token, Billy Bragg is still a committed member of the British Labour Party. British Labour Party are doing things they should't be doing. But like you said, this is not a political list, so I am going to say that's my two cents and that's it.

The Count (A.K.A. Joe Viglione). I have an old ep he did from the mid-seventies (50p in the Record & Tape Exchange) complete with b/w photos where he is wearing a Dracula cape and sliding down a bannister. In another he is strumming a guitar under a tree but is without the cape posing à la Jonathan Richman. My fave track on the disc is a tune called "Whisky Mama" which has a nice'n'cheap keyboard sound. IMHO a song waiting to be rediscovered and covered by a savvy beat combo. To bring this one up-to-date, I believe that Nancy Neon is now producing his show and this weeks edition could possibly feature a re-run of the interview he did with the Flesthones in '98.

I was playing guitar along side him. The show was called Visual Radio and was hosted by The Count, also known as Count Viglione. He runs Varulven Records and may have a copy of the show. I don't have a copy myself, but he's the person to see on that one. Highland has popped up on a few shows for Somerville and Cambridge cable. I know he and I have backed up a few people at Stone Soup Poetry and the shows have been broadcast. His Alice Highland show once got broadcast as well. Kenne has been quiet here, but he has been staying busy with music. He may not be on the Bomp List as much, but the 15 or so emails I got from him yesterday lead me to believe he has been online. Maybe cuz it's Valentines Day he's feeling a bit blue, I don't know. Email him at HighlandNews@webtv.net if you dare.

I couldn't believe that an odd, innocent question that no one could add a grain of "truth" to resulted in so much speculation, with each reply containing the unfortunate association of initials. It seemed like we were creating a horrible rumor out of nothing. My intent was to "stop the madness."
