CBJ to split Content-Disposition: inline Hi all, Just got an email with the depressing news that Cloudberry Jam are splitting up -- Jennie going back to university, saying "Music started to become a job where I couldn't feel that music was the main thing. It was hasseling about everything surrounding it. I can't feel that glimpse of honest joy right now when I go down to the studio and without that I can't have any good music at all". And I never got to see them... why didn't they come to the UK? very sad, Mo ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 21:55:20 +0200 From: Henrik Engstroem Subject: Cloudberry Jam signing off...

If anyone know about any cool concerts, events or anything else that I just *have to see* - I would greatly appreciate if you would like to tell me about it! I guess that's it.

I recieved the Danish Pop tape-chain today. I'm listening to it right now, it seems quite nice. Since there was no cassette sleeve I made one, I'll send it with the tape. I made it in black + white so it will be easier for people to make a copy. Anyway, I'll post it to Mo Holkar in a day or two. Oh, and does anyone know the status of Scandinavian Indie (For Your Soul)? I have been looking forward to hearing Mew as well. Regards, lian. PS. Speaking of Denmark... I hope your football team stuffs Brasil... Just phone Drillo for some advice. ;) * * ---ñ nowhere, redesigned!
