................................. To leave Commie, hyper to http://commie.oy.com/commie_leaving.html ................................. Greetings from the Official Roger That Fanclub Internationale! ### Marry christmas, and live happily everafter! Merry xmas from the whole Roger That Fanclub staff to you, our loved spam-list member! Kisses and hugs. "Tiko tiko nami nami!" as they say in Posio and Puolanka. ### Fishing villages EP "Excursions in norwegian nature #1: Fishing villages" (EP) � 1974 Roger That This fella is a live recording from some happy village fishing festival Roger obviously attended by his journeys in Scandinavia. The year seems to be 1974 or 1976, sleeves are slightly worn-out so can't say for sure. Vinyl is in astoundingly good condition though some hissing and cracking can be heard on the B-side. Musicians on the record: Roger That, Harp (2), Flute (1). Hans Jansson, Guitar (1). Olof Hansson, Bass (1). Sven Olofsson, Drums (1), Kettle (2). Jan Svensson, Sax (1). Somehow - even on the road - Roger That manages to get all the leading musicians on his side. According to various norwegian music history books Hansson, Olofsson, Jansson and Svensson were all in the groundbreaking jazz-orchestra "Norsk Torsk" and won the first prize of Torsk Fest'69. Festival in question seems to be respected highly over the local jazz professionals. No doubt.

A very dark night indeed. We were walking along an anonymous black river here in our native town, Vannesl. Then suddenly out of the dark, these two members of my species appeared. They took him, they took him to the dark! I was crying, stricken with terror. I tumbled down and just trembled for hours. The other one was wearing a black leather coat and blue suede shoes. I think it was Presley in a disguise, it had to be. The other one was a woman, a tall beautiful member of my species who sang old tales with her bright soothing voice and every rock around her turned into silver, glowing in the dark and making my life seem worthwile. But just for the moment. When I closed my eyes filled with enjoyment and opened them again everything was gone. I was alone. Still trembling on the cold and hard face of the Earth. I started to see, born again in this moment of loneliness. This was not my home. This was my destination. I love you. Green circles surround my head and everything is clearer than ever before. I live. From now on I am to be called Reima, and my life has a meaning. A meaning brighter than the stars I looked at when I was young and everything seemed to be allright. That was just childisness. This is the reverse side, my feelings for you float on our common pond. I shall follow Raivo's footsteps, I bought new shoes already. They fit. Reima Yrj�n�, Rovaniemi 17.10.2000 (social security number removed) ### Fc Rovaniemi incident, part 2 Because of the heavy resistance by the citizens of Rovaniemi, Reima Yrj�n� has moved to Tornio and taken over the Tornio fc. The citizens of Rovaniemi claimed that Reima had been dishonest in the press conference concerning Karhu's mystical disappearance and after an terrible disorder in the assembly hall of Rovaniemen Valinta-keskuskamari an election between Reima Yrj�n� and Khai Henry (Sdp.) was won by mr. Henry. ### Are we dead? As you have probably noticed, we haven't been very busy releasing stuff for a while. But that doesn't mean we have been lazy. Oh no, you silly little thing. Something BIG is about to come. Very soon, just you wait. More about that in our next newsletter. Now go celebrate Christmas! ### Selected official fanclubs: Roger That Fanclub Internationale WWW: http://sik.oulu.fi/~roger/ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, dj/live gigs, general & club joining information, questions, etc.) Roger That Fanclub Helsinki Contact person: Antero Tallberg Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, general & club joining information) Roger That Fanclub Oulu Contact person: Andy Lumper Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, general & club joining information) Roger That Fanclub Espoo Contact person: Pete Thorne Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, general & club joining information) Roger That Fanclub Vaasa Contact person: Albert Luotola Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, general & club joining information) Roger That Fanclub Rovaniemi Contact person: Khai Henry Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, general & club joining information) Roger That Fanclub Tornio Contact person: Reima Yrj�n� Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fanmail, general & club joining information) Roger That Fanclub Karachi Contact person: Greg Wildston Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (rocks, pieces of wood, peanuts & club joining information) ---- With wet love, Stephan Warkeros (David is on vacation) Marketing Department / Roger That Fanclub Internationale living at http://www.rogerfun.net and Alanya
