August 1999:
My old faithful 386 just died, leaving me with three computers that
can't access the Internet. Fortunately, I now have a job, so updates
will still be happening, just on someone else's time.
August finds Ani no longer touring, but entering the studio to put
out yet another CD. There are also
rumors of two poetry books coming out of Righteous Babe
Records. One by Sekou Sundiata, and the other by Ani herself.
I'm already twitching at the Jewel comparisons.
In other news, Ani continues to damage her credibility by touring
this August with Alanis Mor . . oh wait, that's not Ani, never
mind. I wonder what it is with money oriented musicians having
my name in theirs . . .
If Righteous Babe stays on schedule, we should see the
Sekou
Sundiata and Arto Lindsay CDs in September. A pessimist would
place their release dates at late fall, early winter. I saw a Lindsay
CD in a local used CD store and picked it up. Ani groupies might
want to stay away. People with good taste will not.
In page news, I've succumbed to popular web culture and started
a poll. The difference is I wrote the scripts that run it myself, so
there's sure to be a lot of glitches, (but no ads!) Go vote!
And finally, most exciting and the least to do with Ani, Andy
Stochansky has a new CD! E-mail PopSixty@aol.com for
ordering information. If anyone's is going to Andy's Rochester
show, I'll be there with bells on. Well, maybe not with the bells.
Damn, I haven't said that much in a long time, so I'd better just
shut up. Enjoy the waning days of summer.
As always, the cartoon in the logo is Zach's, so contact him
before you use it anywhere.

That's about it for now. If you have any questions, first check the
FAQ.
Second, look at the Righteous Reader for the latest info from Righteous Babe,
and third, go to the WWWBoard, where a multitude of Ani fans are kept on topic
by a fascist dictator. If your question still hasn't been answered, then you
can mail me.
