OVAL SHOW CANCELLED!!!!!! we are sad to announce we have cancelled the oval show this sunday october 15th at 7hz in san francisco with kid606 and lesser. this is not a joke or some kind of publicity stunt and we are truly saddened by the stupidity of the situation. we were asked to do the show, we accepted, and it wasn't until recently that we were told markuss popp would not play with lesser because he says he does not want to support anyone or share a bill with anyone who endorses mail order brides and he wanted it to be known that he is against mail order brides. kid606 would also like to add that he has absolutely nothing to do with the cancellation and is sad we had to do it. please spread the word and accept our apologies. but don't miss tigerbomb October 22nd at the bottom of the hill with Cex, Electric company, Blectum from Blechdom, and 2x4 batlle dj's kid666 and lesser it's gonna be a big fun party with lots of candy!!!! Here's an announcement from j lesser:

show? well it ain't happening. markus popp has said he will not play with lesser because of the problematic cover of "welcome to the american experience". he thinks i am 'promoting' mail-order brides... which i am not... and besides, what if i am, why is that wrong? anyway.. moral high horse. when asked if maybe it was because there was a song called 'markuss popp can kiss my redneck ass' on said album, mr popp claimed ignorance. more likely i think i caught him on two fronts... those cold german nights get lonely... long for some hot, exotic action, eh markus. popp saod he wouldn't cancel the show, just that lesser couldn't play. we, however, are cancelling the show and putting out a nice press release. 'fuck that motherfucker' is one possible title. 'maybe that shit will fly in deutchland...' is another possibility. thanks for listening... i can't tell you how funny i find this situation. <end of line> + steadystackingconfetti jlsr + 157 http://www.lsr1.com .MM. ----- Sent using MailStart.com ( http://MailStart.Com/welcome.html ) The FREE way to access your mailbox via any web browser, anywhere! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I think you have to understand that Markus has had some personal issues with Mail-Order Bride companies from South-East Asia in the past... these experiences have left him sour with the whole process, pardon the pun. Meanwhile the fear of having to kiss redneck ass's is understandable, especially in a city like San Francisco where question's of Markus's masculinity would inevitably arise... question's which would only be addressed if he just gave the Mail-Order Bride thing one more shot. Jeeze, it's hard to find ego's this big in rock music even... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
