[avihay robin <aftertheflood_2000@ya...com>]

hi all friendsloversplanes
while u  all sitting and relaxing in your nice european houses (shity 
weather though),there is some people in this lovely world off ours that 
suffers badly from terrorist and from this old-new wave of islamic 
terrorist groups.
u can sit down with your famillies and watch in the c.n.n about all the 
evol of this world  that u may think happends far far from u...but it's 
not.
nobody likes war and nobody likes to see death but sometime u have to 
think a few steps forward and to do something before it will be too late 
and before sadam will have a nuclear bomb that can reach london and 
bristoll or any other european city,so next time before u protest about 
something,sit down for a moment of deep thinking or if it is to hard for u 
,u can allways catch a plane to visit israel or ground 0 in ny.
nobody likes or want wars but sometimes u have no choise to be sure to 
open your eyes and mind .......

Hi all,  I must say I know all this, because I'm e real big 
Marillion-fan... I even paid for that record in advance (and my name is in 
the booklet of the limited edition album...)Now they're trying to do the 
same thing all over again for the next album. One difference though... 
They're trying to raise enough money to pay all promotiom-stuff 
themselves.... This instead of one or another recordcompany.They just 
asked their fans what they all think about the idea... Hans. -----

Happy New Year all. Did anyone read the Doors supplement in the Sunday 
Times this week, especially the Marillion article? For those who didn't, 
it ran something like this: 
The example of pomp rockers Marillion - not the hippest of bands - 
suggests a new business paradigm. Dropped by their record company for 
being unfashionable, the band had to cancel a US tour, until Jeff Woods, a 
fan from Raleigh, North Carolina, took matters into his own hands. Woods, 
who had been to 75 Marillion concerts, raised £37,000 online from other 
fans and the tour went ahead. Realising the power of the internet to build 
a like-minded artistic community, within months 13,000 fans had each paid 
Marillion £16 in advance - totalling more than £200,000 - which allowed 
the band to record their recent CD Anoraknophobia. Suddenly, Marillion had 
the biggest recording advance of their career and no record company to 
call their tune. 
"We were the first band to recognise the potential of the internet," said 
the singer Steve Hogarth. "We have cut out the middle men in suits, who 
have been taking most of our money for the past 20 years. What is so 
brilliant about the net is that we can ask 40,000 fans at the touch of a 
button what they think about a proposed release. It makes music incredibly 
democratic." 
Having sacked their manager and fired their booking agent - fans now book 
the shows - the band employ a full-time web editor to keep 
www.marillion.com up to date. He sits in the office next to their 
recording studio - a fan could not get much closer without being on stage 
- and band members visit the site's forum twice-weekly to contribute to 
the debate. 
"Sure, the net threatens the record industry," Hogarth said, "but it 
doesn't threaten the artist. It frees the artist." 
 
You can't say we didn't try with Swagger but an idea worth pursuing, 
maybe. Steve B
