So, the rumour mill churns some more. Few weeks ago Hawtin was supposed to perform live at a party in the US somewhere (NYC mebbe?) Anyways, he didn't get across the border, and isn't allowed over anymore (this isn't the rumour BTW), being the swell guy he is, he graciously sent a video of him performing down (dunno how he made the video so quick). Think of that, a live Plastikman video, just itchin' to be bootlegged (not that I EVER condone this, I am just pointing out that it is available for such an action). So the question is: has anyone heard of such a thing? Did John even let the video out of his sight all night long to prevent just such an occurance? Rumours, rumours, rumours...

The party was in NYC. it was called Voyager (voyager 2?)..(if not voyager it was the same promoters..) anyway he sent a DAT and not a video and the promoters were instructed to destroy it, which, presumably, they did. (but knowing the promoters, they probably didn't) mikebee
