Really-From: manfred@swi.psy.uva.nl (Manfred Aben) Hi there, I'm quite excited in seeing two postings on the Cocteau Twins in this group. I have been a delirious fan of the Twins for about 7 years! This brings me to the point: Do any of you music lovers care for a new newsgroup entitled "rec.music.4ad" in which all the (wonderful) music produced under the British "4AD" label can be discussed. Famous groups at the label are, besides the twins, This Mortal Coil, and Clan Of Xymox, and Pixies --if I'm right. I know requests for new groups should be done elsewhere, but maybe anyone of you has experience with setting up a new group. Reactions to this group, or: manfred@swi.psy.uva.nl See Ya! =;-I ---------------------------- No fancy Logo's here... | Manfred Aben | SWI | University of Amsterdam | Herengracht 196 | 1016 BS AMSTERDAM | ----------------------------

Something like rec.music.4ad seems an appropriate name. You should read news.announce.newgroups to see how to get a new newsgroup. The basic rules are 1) post an article on why and how, and start a Call For Discussion 2) after a while, when things settle down, start a Call For Votes. if you receive 100 FOR votes more than AGAINST votes, a new group can be generated. See appropriiate news.* newsgroups. pooh (A great Cocteau Twins Fan!)

Really-From: Doug Alan <nessus@gaffa.MIT.EDU> Yes, I would be interested in a 4AD group. But I doubt that there are enough people out there to start one. Still, ...

rec.music.4ad??? I'd *definitely* vote for it. It's absolutely incredible how
they manage to release only good albums. My current favorite is "Livonia" by
His Name Is Alive. If anyone knows anything about this group, please let me
know.
