BANANA Splits, JAIME King, SUEDE, St. ETIENNE: FEB. 1994 !!!

BANANA Splits, JAIME King, SUEDE, St. ETIENNE: FEB. 1994 !!!

Body: feb. 11, 1994 juliana hatfield played the academy. that was a great medium size venue near times sq. its weird how juliana was an alternative darling in 1994 and 15 years later shes comp0letely obscure. last year she wrote a book about how her brush with fame made her severely depressed.


feb. 23, 1994 nick heyward was at irving plaza. [former leader of haircut 100]. I saw haircut 100 at the ritz in 1982. i saw heyward on his north of a miracle tour circa 1984. here's nick's 1994 setlist supporting his 45 'kite' & the LP 'from monday to sunday: caravan. january man. on a sunday. fantastic day. again & again in my heart. cant explain. ordinary people. kite. blue hat for a blue day. he doesnt love you like i do. dr robert. i got a feelin'. rain. [3 beatles covers!!]. love + 1. favourite shirts. sounds from the streets [jam cover]. whistle down the wind. of all the 'cult' artists, nick remains one of my favourites, he's produced a series of amazing english pop LPs & he is only remembered for 3 haircut 100 hits in 1982 & their woolly sweaters.
no fair
* nancy kerrigan's ice skating was a top story at the olympics.


1 of my favourite LPs in feb 1994 was the lemonheads its a shame about ray. suede's extraordinary 45 'stay together' was released 2/14/94. st etienne's 'pale movie' 45 came out the same week. and madder rose on tvt records.


my favourite tv show in feb 1994 was the banana splits reruns.
I heard there's a new splits series somewhere?

some of my business meetings in feb 94 incl mark kostabi, jed root, & company mgmt, whose models in feb 1994 incl jaime rishar, james king & beri smither. jamie king became an actress. jamie rishar was a super-model and as short as kate moss. and beri smither was a fab dutch model whose heroin addiction prevented her from becoming one of the top supermodels. her comeback was so brief it didnt really happen.
