Saying "This Woman's Work" is "sadly overpriced" is an understatement!
Has anybody found a better source for this CD set? My girlfriend and I
will be looking in Arkansas on the theory that lower prices prevail
where there is little demand... (She grew up there.)
Also, I noticed a lack of Katemas parties in the Los Angeles area.
Since IED announced his moving to the City of Angels recently, I
wondered if perhaps there were anyone else in this area interested
in starting one (unfortunately, I don't have the space to do it).
On Vickie's report that
> Warpaint is in the Rhino Records _store_ in LA"
Really? How disturbing not to have found it first! And to have
to admit to the chagrin of an non-local knowing about something
as useful as a good record store. Additional info?
Here in LA, we are working on getting better radio stations, since
Kate airplay seems to be at record lows (so to speak). MARS-FM just
started broadcasting (one infamous (?) Fredrick J. Snakeskin as
program director) but so far very little Kate...ed@DAS.LLNL.GOV (Edward J. Suranyi) (06/01/91)

Of course, I can imagine that demand is SO low there that there's not a single copy in the whole state! I would be delighted to be proven wrong, though. Ed ed@das.llnl.gov

Aren't CDs in Britain 12 quid? 8 CDs times 12p is 96p, or roughly $192. Imported and sold in US for $199 makes sense, although I'm sure they're sold for less in _some_ US locales and Canada. The box is severely overpriced for domestic CDs, but imports are normally $22 around here, times 8 is $176. It seems to make _some_ sense. It would be nice if EMI-America would put out a set. Ha. Champaign-Urbana being such a Kate-fan town (intense sarcasm intended) the one and only shop here that carries the Box sells it for $199, $140 for the LP set (which sold out.) Now the only LP set that exists in town goes for 200 bloody dollars, too. I'm certainly not going to pay $200 for two CDs. On tape is fine with me. Thanks for the lyrics, Vickie. I'm still Happy-less, but when Rose get's in her CD... Happy KaTeing. Ken. -- Ken. Kenneth R.
