 AndrewMFC here. No Leo, I am not attempting to gaslight the list by
impersonating any of the other Andys.  I am sure all of these fellows are
upstanding gentlemen of impeccable taste, but Andy the Luna fan is quite
clearly a scholar and a squire of the highest order. :-)

Hi Andy,



I'm a little confused (but what else is new  : >)   ).



Are Andy [andy@notaworry.net] and Andrew [andrewmfc@aol.com]



the same andy/andrew or different members of the MM List  ... you are
different

people right?

(And then , of course, there's Andy Ferguson and Andy Fekete?)



RE: > huge Luna fan since Penthouse release...have seen them maybe 80-100



Egads!

I envy you; I have only been able to see Television and T.V.'s solo

career bands a total of 23 times (not counting a "Music For Film show).



As has been stated on the List many times it is maddeningly[sp?] frustrating

to enjoy the music of Television but have no way to see them or listen to any

new musical

'output'.

Is the only way to get this (2006) from Rhino or by trolling e-bay?

(I was hoping a big public library like the BPL might have it if it hasn't
been

stolen.)
