It’s the same in OZ there are fans about but most aren’t very active, I call them Ghost fans. there might be one in your community. you can tell when say you go to your local record shop and there’s a couple of new roxette items and the next time u go back some are gone.
Cheers

And you find yourself labelling your friends when you’re a Roxette fan... you’ve your “normal” mates and your “Rox” mates... lol The two don’t mix, but everyone knows that I love ’em and some even laugh :) but we can’t all be the same, liking the same things! I am a UK fan from London, btw ;)

@ Vix: Okay, will do. Didn’t you get my last mail? Bloody thing!

Hey John! I will be down to visit you soon too - but I won’t be coming for fish and chips, ’you know what I’m saying!’

Paignton - I hear it’s nice there! Never been!
Mathew - I know what you’re saying, but all these false promises and no sign of any wet bedding!

Here’s another one representing the North East from Cleethorpes, near Grimsby, Lincolnshire.
I don’t care what anyone thinks of Roxette, I think they are absolutely brilliant!!!!!!!!!

U thing ur bad? Try livin’ in Ireland... it’s as dead as a ghost town... Roxette wise anyway! At least you get singles!!!
onlywhenidream said on July 9, 2002 10:15:
well, that’s debateable...I mean, we got M&T&H, but only about 3 copies per county by all accounts!
But I do feel for you in Ireland, although I have to say I would prefer to be there than here, I think Irish people are a very nice lot.
JohnUK21 said on July 9, 2002 14:26:
I’d rather be anywhere then fucking Torquay!!
GRRRRR!
Mat - when are we going to run away!?

I couldn’t even get ’I want to be you boyfriend’ and also, To get the album-Room Service takes 10 days delivery from the Virgin Store!
onlywhenidream said on July 9, 2002 14:34:
you poor thing!
@john: lamb, the way I am feeling about things...soon, very soon. Did you get my OUT message? Goodness, close to tears I was!
In actual fact, it is so bad, that I have taken to listening to the gorgeous Ronan Keating day after day - he really knows how to belt out a sad sad song. *sniff*

Bloody Whinging poms, :)
It’s good to see some people from the UK with musical taste.
Don’t Worry about Roxette, they outlasted Oasis, they Outlasted the Spice girls, hell they even Outlasted Savage Garden, they’ll still be kicking around in the UK.
Cheers
Dave
P.S. Hows Our Lleyton :)

Bloody Aussies win everything.....except the football....and then its the bloody Brazilians :P
Oasis are still going ;) all be it with a shit album ( the sort of crap that sounds like their last lot) but hell they’re still here.
Rox has died here....and unless EMI has any idea about what to do about it then it will remain the same.....I may be whinging here....but atleast Sweden is only 1hr 45mins by plane from us !! >;)
Commonwealth games next....lets see what we can loose in that.

ditroia: “your Lleyton” as you put it... has Welsh Parents. He was also named after a famous Swansea City Football player in the early 80’s named Lyton James...
Fancy that... my little old Welsh town having a hand in creating the World Champion Tennis Player :)
