Sorry this issue's so late, but I've been a touch ill lately. Then
thosedamned classes keep getting in the way of all my fun... Anyway, myapologies. I mentioned my beloved YOGMAIL today in class. We
were doing oneof those lame "Get to know your class members" things, and we were asked totell something about us. So I
told everyone about our YM. And they gave methat look of disbelief--as though there's something wrong with being a Georgefan. They
were however, pretty impressed to learn that in 6 weeks, it was upto almost 200 subscribers, and I was quite proud! I have more
ramblings foryou this weekend, stuff along the lines of "I think, therefore I'm single..." One thought for you though, my
parents run a restaurant, and so I pop by fordinner on my way home from school, and what do I get? SANDWICHES!!!! Whatis wrong with
this picture?
AND AWAY WE GO...

AG Rambles:
A guy
in England has come across a cache of old George posters used toadvertise a newspaper feature on him. I'm awaiting my copies so I
candescribe them, but is anyone interested? He's only got 25 copies of the 20'by 30' size, and 45 of the 14' by 20' size, so anyone
who really wants one,should let me know, it's gonna be first come first served. As soon as I getthem, I'll post a full description.
But you may well want to pre-order. Noprice as yet, I'm waiting for him to send one. You'll be dealing directlywith him for shipping
and payment, I'm just sending him the list of who wantsto prevent a bidding war. Anyway, let me know...

Having gotten over the *extreme* jealousy I felt
when I learned that Georgeis to do un Unplugged in the US (why doesn't anyone do anything inAustralia!!), I have this question to
ask... can anyone find it in theirhearts to not only tape the show, but to also send a copy of it to me??? Yousee, Australia axed
MTV a few years ago and as a result, we get NOTHING onGeorge except video clips. No interviews, concert for hope, etc... I'll payfor
all the costs, of course, so can anyone do this for me???? Please!!
(Who's gonna help her out? Do you need a copy of the
Concert For Hope? AG)
Thanks a lot! Zoe Disco Diva

MEKAINC-at- from the songwriter--but I thought > that one was "a traditional", so I
don't know. ANYONE? AG)
I think that a problem with the songwriter is not possible because Brian Maywrote this song in 1975
for the Queen album 'A night At The Opera'. I havealso heard that song (and I have it on CD (from a bootleg)) and all I have tosay
is that I really love that song and George shows (as normally) hispowerfull voice. Has anyone on this list also heard to this
version??????.
(I forgot that Brian had wrote that one, oops! I have no idea then. Maybehe just thought Five Live would sound
better than Six Fix? AG)

Just one comment... does this mean that the Unplugged will
be done onNovember 24th??? If so, I'll tell you that that day is the 5th annyversary ofFreddie Mercury's death.
(It's set to
air that day, likely not a co-incidence now that you remind me. It's being shot next Friday in London. AG)
I got some questions about
the GM Unpugged-session: Is November 21st the datefor MTV U.S. or for MTV Europe or both? If it4s just shown in the U.S. thatday
could anyone tell me when it is gonna shown on MTV Europe?
(To the best of my knowledge, it's set to air on MTV US on that
date, no wordon the MTV Europe date. AG)
One more thing: I own a unplugged version of Freedom 90 on video tape whichwas
broadcasted in 1992 on MTV Europe in the 10th anniversary-show of MTV. And i even think that he did a whole unplugged-session which
was just neverbroadcasted completely. So i assume that this will not be his first unpluggedgig. Has anyone seen the 10th
anniversary-show too? Has anyone more infosabout that?
(I saw the 10th anniversary performance of Freedom. According to an
AOL chatboard contributer, who was there, there was a full unplugged recorded, butno, MTV never aired it. AG)
I even wrote a
letter to MTV in which i asked them to show a GM-Unplugged ifone exists - but i never got an answer. But since it is very unlikely
thatGeorge Michael just sang one song that evening there must exist a previousGM-Unplugged! But why did MTV never showed it?
(Has
something to do with Sony I believe. AG)
Well, anyway i4m very excited about the unplugged-thing and i am reallylooking
forward to it! That's all for now
(Read on, there could be bad news about the it... AG)
"Oh
yeah..."
Congrats on one month anniversary. I'm really enjoying YOGMAIL deliveredevery other day.
(It makes my
life a lot easier too... AG)
Kelly, you know, promised to send the copy of LWP interview album I wanted. Ireally appreciate
Kelly and you.

On issue #24, someone is preparing for GM's homepage. I think she is Sharon.She is
making his mag-Freedom but she will post only part of Freedom on theweb.
(She's not the one, it's Josh's actually. Sharon
just signed on to YM, butit currently without WEB site. I'm awaiting further info on Freedom to post. AG)
I live in Korea. DJ
said "There will be pop quiz on Oct.7th and two winnerswill have the luck to attend GM's unplugged concert in London. Total
expenseswill be provided by EMI/Virgin." Can you imagine to see him in concert? Onlyif I can be a winner... Surely I attend the
quiz.
(Having had the priviledge of seeing Mr. Michael thrice, I can assure it'snot a sight to miss... AG)
