I just called up Mark Hamilton, a KITS DJ, to tell him the news from
the convention. Here's how our conversation went:
Me: I've spoken to you a number of times, and you've given me
the impression that you're at least somewhat of a Kate Bush fan.
Mark: Oh, I am! As a matter of fact, I'm going to be featuring the new
box set tomorrow [Tuesday, Nov. 26] on the UK Cafe [his 12 noon
show].
Me: Really? That's wonderful! I'll be sure to listen!
Mark: Yeah, I'll be plying a couple of tracks from the non-LP CDs. I
think I'll play the live version of "James and the Cold Gun"; I'm
not sure what else I'll play. I'm a little disappointed with the
liner notes, though. I wish we could have gotten more information
about the source of these extra items.
Me: Yeah, that's what a lot of people have been saying. Anyway, here's
why I called. [I told him about the incredible convention news.]
Mark: That's fantastic! I'll be sure to mention this tomorrow!

Hmmm, one would wonder if Ms. Bush would be happy about the leakage to the press. No doubt she considered this before the convention, but I would think that she would be more comfortable with the info in the hands of a respectful fan, instead of a hungry newshound. Peace, dNb

Well, Kate didn't tell us that she wanted us to keep this secret. She said she wanted us to be the first to know! I don't think it should be kept secret. Consider all the fans who aren't love-hounds and who didn't go to the convention. Shouldn't they hear about this wonderful news? Anyway, Mark Hamilton *is* a Kate fan, as he's demonstrated to me several times. He was the first American I know to see the video for "The Sensual World". Ed ed@das.llnl.gov

It seemed from the descriptions I heard that she was either in the process of making up her mind, or working out the details. In either case, I think if I was an artist I might tell my friends that I was considering a tour, but not the press directly so they didn't force decisions or details from me. I have not doubt about Mr. Hamilton's fandom, I just hope he presents it as nebulously as Kate presented it to you so this doesn't snowball out of her control. Peace, dNb

I think it was melody maker I read it in, but I can't remember. So maybe there was actually a low key press release? Gary Hill, gjh@uk.ac.soton.ecs

When I was in London last week, I read much of what Kate told us at the
Konvention in a small insert to the Tower Record News. The interview was entitled something like "The First 15 years". I'm pretty sure she mentioned the intention to tour in there, too, although this is from memory.
