The Possible Productions catalog [ This posting is also on the Web at http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/aig/staff/toby/et/possible/index.html. On-line form-based Web ordering is not yet available, but will be soon. But you can email orders direct to Possible. Please direct all orders and queries *directly to Mark Perry* at Possible Productions -- PossProd at aol dot com -- and NOT to me, or to ET! -- Thanks Toby ] Dear ET'ers, Here is the new Possible Productions catalog with a few items I know some of you in the states have been waiting for. Most obvious are the 3 new releases: B'Boom, A Blessing of Tears and Intergallactic Boogie Express. And for you in Europe we also have the RFSQ video on PAL format ( finally). We also have the Gaucho's "Hot Fat Fish" CD and Adrian's "Acoustic" CD and Tony Levin's Papa Bear Records T-shirt and hid World Diary Poster. For you computer users, check out the 21st Century Screen Saver for Windows. (Definitely cooler than flying toasters). And to round things out, we have the Crimson and related catalog items. (We are always working to obtain all related catalog items.) A big help to us when you are ordering is to include your phone number in case of a problem. We will never pass on anyone's personal data to an outside source. Please take note of our new phone numbers. Phone - ( 310 ) 435 5901 & FAX ( 310 ) 491 1945. Also, our e-mail address is now:( PossProd at aol dot com) Please change from Dinokiller to PossProd as soon as you can. For you ET subscribers outside of the US/CANADA/MEXICO please email us for shipping costs when you order The Great Deceiver and Frame by Frame Box sets as our shipping costs vary a great deal from country to country. Thanks to everyone! This band sure has some great music lovers who support them.
