I understand and respect the band's decision and Rob and Cerise's efforts in getting the CDs re-released. I'm also aware of the logistics surrounding a reissue.

Bonus tracks are tricky. Many fans want the extra material, but you also have to consider and respect the band's original intentions; maybe Foxx and the boys just didn't like the idea of, say, "My Sex" seguing into "TV Orphans" on the reissue. I'm okay with that. Still, as an obsessive nut, I hope the remaining tracks will eventually see the light of day.

Intentionally so, I'm afraid. Some band members were in favour, others not; we didn't want to reveal any specifics in case of blame-slinging, particularly as the band visit these forums (more than would appear).

Eek. For the record, that Warren Cann is one handsome fellow. Also, Midge's sideburns are looking mighty lovely as of late.

But seriously, I'm a little surprised the band reads forums like these. If I were them, I'd find reading about myself unbearable. I guess they've had more practice than I have.

Nice to finally meet you, by the way, Cerise. I've seen your name scattered about for years now.

Understood...I re-read it thoroughly and my brain must have shut off at certain points during my initial vising, in which I was looking for this key phrase: "these unreleased tunes will be released in a couple weeks or at that kooky guy in Los Angeles's discretion" or something to that effect. As for my declaration: "let's petition," it's just a passionate reply. Finally, as for the preceding sentence in this paragraph, I hope to slip more obscure Foxx/Vox references into future posts.

Cheers, and thanks to all who clarified the thread.

Nice to meet you too!

And the "kooky guy in Los Angeles" in question is...?

Mrs. X

'Tis I! I live in Looped Los Angeles.

I'm online friends with a girl who calls herself Telekon. When I met her, I assumed she was a guy. When I met you, I assumed you were a girl. The next Telekon I meet will be a hermaphrodite.

Random gender.

Ah, when I was a man and you were a woman...
