Re: Shilling for myspece

oh HELL!

While we're at it....

(sigh)

'in for a penny...in for a pound!'

OK-
Show of hands now, folks!

How many of us Dinosaurs, Tecnodweebs and Analuggers have succumbed to
the irresitible lure of -free- and joined the trawling
child-molesters, and
middle-schoolers-experimenting-with-virtual-promiscuity on myspace?

(Doc (sheepishly) raises hand , Grant raises hand, Gary Numan raises
hand...)

MY excuse is that it is MUCH easier to keep a leash on my 13-year-old
daughter's exploits with a myspace ID than without one. This was , no
doubt, part of their marketing plan. (BTW myspace has become MUCH
savvier about security just in the last two weeks!) 

for my part....
Of the 4 mp3's on
http://www.myspace.com/toryzstarbuck
Only "Rings of Saturn" has no Wiard content (since it was recorded in
the early 90's... that an Oberheim Matrix 1000 BTW) 
I help Tory record most of his stuff and so there's always SOMETHING
wiard in the signal path.
Also (at last look) The main photo on the site has Tory & Venus**
flanking one of my electroniums at a Halloween gig at the St. Louis
Art Museum last year. (The electronium , dubbed "Viaggio Di Marconi" 
is a theremin controlled contraption with no Wiard components... so
it's officialy OT!). Images of yours truly are among the band photos
folder . I'm the fat, gray-bearded one, in the shriners hat.... not
hard to spot.

there are some good listens out there folks ... bravo! If there are a
bunch of myspacers among us, perhaps we should consider pointing to
all the 'Wiard on myspace' in the links section of this group. 

if nothing else, it might mke prof. Richter feel more relevant

** Tory and Venus are also the primary voice talents on the Wiard
'commercials' i sent to Grant
("they make me...")
