Date: Wed, 25 Nov 1998 15:29:15 +0100 From: Xavier Cristina Pau Subject: The Green Room Here are the the details on this sampler: THE GREEN ROOM, ever2cd98 The booklet includes the following comment by Kristin Hersh (translated from spanish): "It took around 10 years to my band, Throwing Muses, to reach Spain. We had drooled over the films of Almodovar and gazpacho, although we still believed that spaniards wouldn't welcome us. Our european tour seemed endless; same clubs, same audience, same stages. Finally, Spain opened its doors and allowed us to get in, it was an adorable mixture of 70's hotel rooms, old churches and nudist beaches.The rest of Europe vanished in the distance while we ate ice-creams in front of an apartment building designed by Gaudi, and then we realised that we had a lot of lost time to redeem."
