	The last report I heard of Orange Goblin was that they'd lost 
Chris Butler the drummer, and what with him gone and only one guitarist 
they'd basically become a pub band with a big following. Do you reckon 
they've still got something special after all? They keep being on bills 
which I'm halfway convinced by and I don't really want to turn up and 
find that a band who were such a good live experience aren't any more, 
so I don't decide to go in time. All reports gratefully received, yours,
									 
Jon (who would of course go and see them anyway if they were playing 
pubs rather more)
