Somebody said that the video that they showed will never be sold. Is that
something they said at the convention or a guess or what? I (and I am sure
all the people who wern't at the con) would love to see it.

I seem to remember that someone in the audience yelled out that the video should be sold or made available or something like that. I think it was Dave (?) (the MC guy) who kind of rolled his eyes, looked at the other Homeground people on the stage with I kind of "O my god, wouldn't that be a task" look on his face, and said that it would probably never happen. I don't remember if he said why not, though.

I don't remember if he said why not, though. I think it was something to do with getting the rights to include film from all the different TV companies across Europe being VERY difficult (ie. impossible) to arrange. Alas. A huge hello to all the fine Love Hounds I met at the Convention! In no particular order: Ed, Chris'n'Vickie, Larry, Phil, Rick, Greg, Andy Marvick, Andy Semple, Evan, Jorn, and everyone else! It was great actually seeing you all and it made the day really special! Hi also to the rest of the Love Hounds 'B' team! Shame we were only second... A Love Hound asked who Alan Murphy and Gary Hurst were: Alan was a guitarist who had played on *most* of Kate's albums, I think he was also in a band called Go West, but I could be wrong. He helped Kate write 'Waking the Witch'. Gary was one of the dancers in the Tour of Life, and may have done some BVs on a few albums as well. They both died from AIDS last year.

I don't remember if he said why not, > though. (Sorry for the ugly quote) The reason announced at the KonvenTion was "imagine how difficult the international copyright clearances would be." So, to me, this means that we'll never see an "official" version, but I'm sure that we'll see an unofficial version available at some of the Record Conventions within the year. Further, the entire Kon was video taped, and I wonder how long it'll be before we can get our hands on that!? Cheers!

The Homeground people (Dave, Peter, et al) have some absolutely incredible stuff that they simply will not copy for anyone at all. They explained that they are in the wonderful situation where the Bush family actually trusts them, and they don't want to do anything to destroy their trust. You'll have to trust me when I say that they have some things many love-hounds would kill for! Yet none of it has ever gotten out of their house. Ed ed@das.llnl.gov

Well, waiting for it's not going to keep me awake at night. What made me think that it might become available is simply the fact that the project of releasing this thing officially will be mainly insurmountable. It might be in the Bush family's interest to see it "leaked" Yeah, I know.... Suffering from the conspiracy theory again! Maybe if I wish hard enough, it'll happen anyway. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Bollar - via FidoNet node 1:133/411 UUCP: galbp!gisatl!110!Richard.Bollar INTERNET: Richard.Bollar@f110.n133.z1.FIDONET.ORG
