Oh, Lordy.
I've not been contributing much lately and as a result I've just sat down
and waded through the accumulated 70-odd emails. I've noticed two things.
1. Tension. Can something which brings extra publicity to our favourite
band be so terrible? I hardly feel qualified to comment, since I have no
idea what MySpace is or what it does. I have followed the link to a website
but I'm none the wiser. Still, if Lisa's setting up what sounds very much
like a website dedicated to the Aeros, well that's great. Isn't it? Well
done, Lisa! I think.
2. Technology. "MySpace". "Torrent". "MP3". "Copy Protection". "Creative
Labs Zen". What a strange and terrifying world we live in. I wonder what
it all means. When did I get that old? Still, I understand enough to know
that when I read the bitter comments from a customer on the Amazon website
about copy protection it was enough to put me off of buying Swagger for the
moment. Anything that makes life difficult is not worth bothering with.
It's hard enough for me to keep up with all this tech as it is.
Right, that's me back in my box for a spell.

Thank you all for lots of information.
I have made a huge leap forward, burning mp3 files on to CDs. I can now
listen to (almost) the whole Blue Aeroplanes output in the car as I drive
to and from work, which is a ten minute journey or so (so I'm not very far
in yet).
The huge leap forward is that the car's mp3 player displays the title of
the track. So tracks I know as 'the quiet one after the loud one with the
tinkly guitar and the mandolin' now has a name. (I think that one is
called 'James'.)
I may now be able to identify '88 Out'. (You never know.) So thanks for
that.
What is really weird about being a Blue Aeroplanes official supporter and
amongst the challenges facing the Lisas of this world and the problem of
fixing a website is that we don't know the answers to straightforward
questions such as the following:
(a) Who is in the band?
I drove through Swindon the other day, but I did not notice any guitarists
hitching.
