What's the process for buying from the ABC using US dollars? Do I have to convert them to Pounds myself somehow, or do I just pay however many dollars are equivalent and they take it from there?
Wayside also sells most Cardiacs CD. Might save you a lot of shipping costs by ordering through them

Agree about Wayside being a good option for those of us on this side of the pond. ABC does offer some cool merch that's unavailable anywhere else, though, so what I've also done is wait until the itch for a shirt or something else strikes me and then tack a cd or two that I don't have yet on to that order.

Great news btw from Jim re: giving 'On Land/Sea' the deluxe box set treatment. I'm in for all of it....every last speck of sand on the beach.
Gun to my head - absolutely one of my favorite tunes of the 80s ever by anybody. Incidentally, I never heard it until the 2000's.

I blame Wynton, what was the question?

A very nice piece written by a "new" fan. He gets it.

I love Mike's choices here, especially "A Game for Bertie's Party" live from The Garage Concerts.
I played Cardiacs on my debut radio show last Saturday. Okay, so it was Stoneage Dinosaurs, the 'entry-level' Cardiacs song, but I had to ease them in gently LOL! It's a broad show and range of listeners, so not all prog and certainly not all challenging material (but not the same old-same old either, as I don't see the point in that). I plan on incorporating them in at least every other week if I can make the space... perhaps an 'artist spotlight' 3-pack kind of thing would be fun to do.

Love it, bought it. I also appreciate the quote from the article where the writer's wife says of Maresnest: “It’s all starting to sound like one giant song.”. That's surprisingly apt, and I sometimes feel the same way, that the entire catalog is comprised of movements from one giant opus.

Holy crap - what I wouldn't give for a recording of this, video or audio, with decent sound. The four-guitar army - what energy!

It looks like Kavus is playing at Gouveia Art Rock Festival on May 4 with Gong, the same day as the second Sing to Tim show in London. I'm a bit disappointed, since I (perhaps mistakenly) thought he would be a part of the Sing to Tim concerts.
Outside of Jo Spratley and Jim Smith (in the interview linked above), I realize I haven't heard much either way about which Cardiacs alumni might be a part of these concerts. Does anyone have more information?
I have tickets for the 4 May Sing to Tim event as well and it is a pity Kavus wont be there.
Gong is probably his mail source of income now and bills have to be paid.
I hope she's going to bring along her wonderful husband to play some guitar, especially since he's responsible for co-composing some of my favourite Cardiacs' tunes.
And I hope this event will be filmed at least amateurishly by some kind pondie for everybody to enjoy.
I would love to attend, but it's somewhat troublesome these crazy days to get to Albion from my motherland.
In a few days I hop on the train to London for the Sing to Tim event on Saturday. Any others are going?
I'll be the one with the big daisy t-shirt .
Oh wait, that wont be very helpful.
