The Brain Donor promo cd single finally made its way to the
mp3 format, after much scurrying around by several parties. Anyone
wanting to check it out can now do so at: http://www.bov.clara.net/music/
It is agreat track that leaves you begging for more. Rumours
abound that there may be an album sometime in the spring and
even a live album. And talking of live, the post-tour discussions
seem very positive. Here at Trampolne, we have heard tapes of
the St Albans and Southampton gigs, with the promise of more
to come. Both are truly excellent, with Cope on top form and
boosted by the addition of Donald Ross Skinner. The St Albans
version of Sleeping Gas has to be heard to be believed.
At the final gig at the Shepherds Bush Empire, Thighpaulsandra,
Doggen and DRS also appeared with Cope and by all accounts it
was a truly memorable evening. Wish we could have all been there...

Lots of activity on the Cope front recently. A British solo
tour almost at an end, a new cd, a new look Head Heritage site
and a bit of a spruce up round here too. Here at Trampolene we
recently received our copy of the 2000 Tour Programme cd, An
Audience with the Cope, beautifully packaged with 5 completely
new tracks from the Arch Drude, and the live tapes of the shows
are slowly coming in. Those of you who were able to see the man
live seem suitable impressed. As always we encourage you to go
to Rail On and Head Heritage sites (after your done here of course)
to hear the full story from those who were there.
Also recently aquired a copy of the Brain Donor promo single,
which features only one track "She Saw Me Coming".
The track is a mouth watering tease, leaving us eagerly awaiting
the release of a full cd by them and who knows, a tour maybe?
New additions to this site are:

Rumours coming from the Head Heritage site of a Cope tour later
this year. No set dates as yet, or as to whether he will make
across the big pond either, or even whether it will be a solo
or full band experience. Let's hope all these are true!

Today's screaming not-so-secret is that Julian is up for grabs
at eBay. No doubt he will be snapped up by a Japanese business
conglomorate for an unimaginable price and then be kept behind
closed doors where only priviledged board members will ever be
able to see him, denying the world of this great work of art.
Don't let this piece of true British (Head) Heritage leave the
country!

The fallout from the Cornucopea weekend festival in London.
On going discussions can be read either at Head Heritage or Rail
On. Unfortunately Trampolene wasn't able to make it to the weekend,
so we are having to live vicariously though the impressions of
others. Sound like it was a great weekend though.
The following have also been added to Trampolene:
