Nothing earth-shaking to report this week.... But I do have 5 chunks of random info you may digest if you wish.
1) The tentative date for our transition from BIG-VHUS-site to Little-VHUS-free-site is November 11th.
2) I'm considering setting up a public Dropbox folder where interested parties can download ~15-20 of our better episodes. If you have any suggestions on what (or not) to include, drop me a line.
3) Nice to see so many of you getting off your butts and taking advantage of the Classic Encore episodes on offer. I also appreciate the letters from new listeners expressing their new-found appreciation of VHUS, as well as their dismay at being WAY too late to the party.
4) There's a new album out there called RHAPSODIES IN BLACK from a coven of well-known female gothic/symphonic vocalists calling themselves EXIT EDEN.
The vocal lineup includes Clementine Delauney, Amanda Somerville,
Marina La Torraca and Anna Brunner (Epica's Simone Simons also guests on 2 tracks).
The gimmick: 11 goth-ified, opera-metal-injected covers of what most of us would consider God-awful POP songs (maybe a couple of exceptions).
I bought it. I listened a few times. I didn't hate it. And I'm not ashamed. Here's an Amazon link if you're curious.
5) Twitter & Uncle: Soon to be DIVORCED. The shit and the politics are just too fucking deep.
