I recall a story of someone successfully getting a package addressed to
AND
HILL
JOHN
(John Underhill, Andover)
I heard that anecdote as

HILL
JOHN
MASS

John Underhill, Andover, Mass[achusetts]

Americentric, natch. ;)
Nope, you're right.

Ah, I think it was to contrast the otherwise inept service he got from the US PO (sending something to a big and famous publisher in California, and getting it returned). An American(born) travel author going back to the states after a long time living in the UK and writing about it, IIRC.

Their stuff is pretty okish, but let's just say I'd love to see a live show, but wouldn't be buying the CD unless I saw them live and wanted to remember it.

Too much like the Dubliners, too little like Steeleye Span or Silly Wizard. (And a distinct lack of the Pogues too.)

Interesting music, interesting people.

Hey, any of you guys like more modern stuff? I have a friend who has a pretty good band. Wanna hear?

reminds me a bit of the Delays. Quite good, but maybe a little soulless/generic for my tastes - there's not anything that makes me jump and go 'hey, there's a hook!'.

Hmmrah. Sounds like everyone is a critic. Haha. :p
But of course.

To be fair, I do have some incredibly tenuous connections to the music biz via my former work. Which means I still know bugger all, but can pretend I known someone who knows someone who met someone who once slept with someone who once met a photographer who shot the manager who first had the idea of becoming manager of someone who used to be a roadie for a band fronted by someone famours.

Or something.

Suddenly it all makes sense.
Aldo is obsessive compulsive. Hahaha.
