decisions?
decisions?
who is in for deciding the 7 inch...
closing date was 13oct, 3 weeks ago now, perhaps it is time we meet again, no? meeting this week, wed or thurs?
if anyone has yet to listen to tracks, they are on i tunes in the office puter, folder named forest records.
i also burnt some cds to take away and listen to in the comfort of your own home, plus they are on the cafe computer upstairs to whistle while you work.
the pressure is on if we are still heartset on a stocking filler....

Making Your Mind Up
Has a truer word ever been said (while whipping off a skirt?)MAKING YOUR MIND UP - 18/04/1981
3 weeks at #1 - 12 weeks on chart
You gotta speed it up, and then you gotta slow it down
Coz if you believe that our love can hit the top
You gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up
You gotta turn it on, and then you gotta put it out
You gotta be sure that it's something everybody's
Gonna talk about
Before you decide that the times arrived
For making your mind up
Perhaps the people who entered are wondering what is going on...
I've had some people ask me what's happening with the 7 inch.
Seeing as it was so widely hyped we should see this thing through.
What are your top picks Dai, Chris and Jane?
Anyone else who wants to help make a decision go to the office computer and listen to the tracks under "Forest Records" on the itunes (by the end of this week perhaps??)

the pendulums are good people (folky stereolab has got to be good) and krumins are old-school forest so i would support both of them although i havent heard any of the tracks

just thought I should bring it to your attention that team turnip maybe in the process of changing their name to romulus - they were in last night and asked me to amend the events book with a new name.
it may be that they have just changed the line up though and are using a different name for that reason. might want to chekc it out though.

sup peoples!
can someone please zip+mail or yousendit me (dirkmarkham@hotmail.com) the other three tracks so i can hear what i'm up against?
Park and Ride is not by "markham" - rather the Hemulen...
spoke to gazza about this in dezember but: the seven inch should be a series - with a snappy title like "my beat is a forest", or maybe just "Forest singles club #1"
look 4ward to hear the stuff.
peace,
drock

the more you think, the more you stink
oh, hey, if you have selected the pendulums tune to be on the record, martin says they have a better mix of it... so you should get it from him.
