have u got some ebay stuff of these CDs? (except for Bad Dude in Love) no, sorry... I don't think that Rare Trax tape ever even made it to eBay... same goes for that t-shirt (which can be read about in that flyer that comes with the Bad Dude album) THE BLUES: E recently performed Skip James' "Little Cow And Calf Is Gonna Die Blues" for Martin Scorsese's PBS documentary The Blues, a six part documentary to air in the fall of 2003. I actually did the liner notes for the dutch version of the dvd box that had all the different episodes of this series in it. Nothing too fancy, I just had to translate the original English liner notes and give a 'dutch' feel to it. Anyway, I really don't recall E being on the documentaries at all. He was most likely to be (I guess) in the Wim Wenders episode, but you never know... Maybe I should take the time one day to watch the entire series. It's supposed to be really good! Aaah... lack of time! |

That does exist. Yeah, this bloody LP. I watched it for like 4 days and then the guy pulls it and wont tell me why. I even made a tentative offer of £400 for the thing!!!! Grrrr! Private pressing, not many around. Now begins the waiting game! |

we are talking about an lp what means there are more pressings damn i just got the feeling e's playing with us and he's putting this stuff up more pressings yes. but back then you could get as few as four hundred pressed for a reasonable price. |

Bert, I don't think all the money in the world could buy us that LP. Looks like the Eels management were faster again. I think, in the future, when someone sees some rare jewel, he or she should convince the seller to sell it immediately before Vagrant or whoever can stop the auction.

I know I don't at least... If someone tries to stop one of my auctions by offering a high amount of money, I usually take the gamble and leave it on eBay anyway. 9 out of 10 times the money for which the item sells exeeds what the person trying to stop the auction has bid. |

he he he.. I also have a signed copy... from back in the days that they were actually happy to have fansites around  but I tend to enjoy unsigned copies better, so I bought another one at a gig... like the Fokke and Sukke cartoon "Oh no, he ruined our beautiful book by scribbling on it with a black marker!!" |
