This isn't too on topic but "Dig Your Own Hole" was the name of an album by a group called Gaye Bikers on Acid maybe 7 years back. Yes that's how it's spelled. I think they were a sort of punk/metal band but I never actually heard it. ************************************************************************* * "Anything that makes your mother cry is fun.

It was a great album! I saw Mary Byker w/ Pigface (actually sang 'suck' with him and Genesis P-Orridge...) sort of punk-rock, but extremely wild... one of the few albums w/ vocals I can listen to nowadays... __________________________________________ sfwd@sonic.net wasted time in mass abundance

sorry to post an anal little correction (but what could be more thislisty?) i believe the record was called "Drill Your Own Hole" and was so named cos the orginal pressing on vinyl lacked a pre-drilled spindle hole... so that the buyer could (im)properly drill their own hole at their leisure. i recall the big buzz over bands like them, and pwei, the tag was "grebo-rock"(!?!) anybody else remember that short-lived hoopla? suffice it to say the gaye bykers (aka lesbian dopeheads on mopeds) completely failed to reach the mainstream, as will most of our beloved idm artists with any integrity. the one similarity between the gaye bykers and the chems that i've noted is the very apt titles they've chosen for their releases ;) /// solemn *IT's a FaCT!!* The average sixty minute audio cassette tape has 562.5 feet of tape in it.
