It reads, "NOTE: Everyone should >order these 2 CDs through a Canadian record store and should NOT >buy the CD from Oglio records." yes, I also noticed this, but for me it was too late because I ordered MWH "Collection" CD from an used CD store, then the "ROY" from Oglio Directly. I don't know what's the problem between the band and Oglio, maybe a licensing question. But it this is the case, I don't know why MWH didn't call their lawyer to fix the problem legally.

Yes, methinks this would have been the *first* course of action on Stefan's mind to take. Shoot first, ask questions later...

Mike UPDATE September 9th, 2001: There is becoming an increasingly good chance that once this album is finished, we will then do a whole album dedicated to Safety Dance, as in, a techno mix, a drum and bass mix... done by different DJs, to bring the song a bit more up to date with today's club scene. It'll also include a new version by us. UPDATE September 9th, 2001: We've been doing lead vocals and guitars. Things are going well, Ivan's in very fine vocal form, we even have a title and a concept for the cover, although we haven't actually settled on the exact cover yet. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info hats" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email hats@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Men Without Hats discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?hats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Angela Tooley" Subject: Re: (hats) News from MWH.com Date: 10 Sep 2001 12:15:16 -0400 It's a good thing "Safety Dance" is one of those songs you can hear a million times and never get sick of it.

The newest Hats fan is my 79-year-old grandmother. I was driving my grandparents cross-country (long story), and I brought some CDs that I roughly divided into three categories: stuff they would like (classical, big band), stuff they *might* like (Enya, Chronos Quartet), and stuff I figured they'd hate (MWH, MWH, MWH, U2, Duran Duran, MWH, MWH, MWH - you get the idea). So we get about to South Dakota and I'm about ready to scream from boredom, so I put in the ROY demos. Grandma asks, "Is this that Men Without Heads that you like?" Yes, grandma, close enough. Grandma continues, "Wow, this is pretty good." I managed to not drive off the road. So then I put in The Spell, PGTW, and the Freeways boot. Grandma was totally jamming. Grandma put in her requests for Xmas presents: PGTW, most of the ROY demo (she didn't like Treblinka or Rhythm of Youth), and from The Spell, "That song that his little niece is on." She really liked "Editions of You," and preferred the heavy guitar mix. To save Grandpa's ears from bleeding (he "didn't care for" MWH), I then put in the Glenn Miller CD that I brought. It opens with "In the Mood," and Grandma sighed deeply and loudly, put her right hand to her forehead with her index finger and her thumb extended, and proclaimed, "This is SO LAME!"

Let's hear it for Grandmas! They're the greatest! Now how do I introduce my 84-year-old grandma to MWH? I have no cross-country road trips coming up... :-) I should also mention that my 2 1/2 year-old daughter LOVES Safety Dance. Not the extended version, though. She bops up and down in her car seat while we drive. So cute!
