:) well, there is so much in what you've written, Lizzy - and, as ever, you're insightful, perceptive and sensitive ( : it's a tiring time I'm in right now, and even at the best of times, I prefer to comment more on the process(es) and let others' words reveal the effects of Allison's music on them;...

Yes, my leg started to "necrotize" I believe they call it, but, I acted quickly, and I'm fortunate. The leg is still looking a little rough, but, it should not get worse. I actually like spiders - though this experience is making me a little less inviting. For now anyway! I live in the dee...

apparently it's not as unusual an occurrence as one might imagine - having lived my entire life to this point without being poisoned by a spider's bite, I didn't realize what had happened, until my calf swelled up in intense pain, and I became "spaced out" and ended up in emergency at the ...

vinyl version?

does anyone know, (perhaps this question has already been raised...), is Dear Heather going to be released on vinyl?

cheers, Adrian

Indeed, what a wonderful idea and reality ( :

I am only sorry I've just heard about it! (I've been sick - after being bitten by a spider. Bizarre, but scary.)

It's a terrific inspiration, Jarkko! Hooray for all the contributors, and the birthday boy :D

no one will stone you for having your own opinion! :D (unless you mean stoned a la 'Rainy Day Women #12 and 32' - and want to be :wink: ) we all know taste in music is highly personal and subjective! some folks prefer female, even male, vocalists to be softer or pretty-ier in their approach, whereas...

perhaps it's a premonition - like my Mom would say when your palm is itchy, you'll come into money (something like that - right now, it's likely to be mosquitoes :wink: )
