Sent by Dick Greener, 7 Sep 2011

Hi folks

A quick Strawbswebnews after the resurrection of
the list (Topica just quietly put it back without
any communication at all). Apologies there was
nothing in August, personal reasons.

More to come later in the month.

Unfortunately the date in Worcester on 16 Sep has
had to be cancelled. All other dates as sent out
in July. Details on website at:

==================
KOREAN CD REISSUES
==================

Watch out for Korean "slipcase" re-issues of Two
Weeks Last Summer and Old School Songs - these
are legitimate and fully licensed by Witchwood
Media. Whilst the latter is the same as the UK
CD release, the Korean Two Weeks Last Summer has two bonus tracks:

* See How They Run - an early Cousins/Lambert track from the same period; and
* The Actor - an alternate mix
