The place of Gabmiration
(welcome to an unstructured page)
***Recent Stuff June 2, 2005*** I update like a dead rock. One
of these days I'll fix the broken links.
I still exist. Just wanted to let you know that.
Help Lith with the news! If you know something I don't tell me!! Which
amounts to.. basically anything.
(what have we here?)
You have found a cool thing.
Have I?
Oh, yes. Lith's etapas page is really quite cool--
'I was amazed at the coolness!': Mrs. Janet H. of Bournemouth --
You can look at cool stuff and read funny things and cool things and go
places and stuff.
This is just one facet of etapas.. the index and Peter Gabriel page.
Etapas
links include:
pete-based art by Lith
Cool photos computer manipulated by, but not taken by
Lith - a concert photo from the SW tour.
- A concert photo from the AI tour.. during Shock
the Monkey.
- Rael.
- Okay, it becomes obvious I like young pete. Another
CE'd pic.. from the era of odd hair.
- Did I say odd hair? This one's from an Italian interview. The guy has
asked pete where the fantasy comes from, and he
replies, "Well fantasy often comes from the sole," takes off his shoe
and starts playing it like a little drum. Everybody in the group just
stared at him except Phil, who thought it was right funny! playing the sole
- The young pete shot I promised.. You may
recognize it
from the climax of "Supper's Ready" ..Well actually a bit after..
- a screen capture from the famed Oxford Show.. He can always hear them
talk. Gosh I love those eyes! Oops sorry.
Showing my bloody age again. I have a medium quality copy of this show
but if you've not seen it I'll send you a copy for postage cost..
- The cover from State of Mind. Do
Not buy State of Mind. This photo is the coolest thing about it.
- Just a little shot of Rael-era pete singing muchly. Two mikes are better than one.
- Ditto of even younger pete
Well, it took a while but I fixed it.. this is a
linked index of photos of pete.
linkity link! good pete related links.
- Radio Realworld has a section
devoted to Peter Garbriel.
- Solsbury Hill is a
Fine page. They do so much cool stuff that I gave up trying to be cooler
than them long ago.
- And Through The
Wire's the usual pete page; its pretty definitive. It has tons of
links and information, including links to some more pete photos, and
John, the extremely keen guy who runs it, he also runs
- the
chat room.
- Angel's page..
It's
awsome cool. Great RARE soundfiles too.
- There is this incredible old singles and boot discog at Willow
Farm. It includes scans of the covers of every single and boot
this cat has, and lots of them are KEEEEEEEN!
- Lith's
tradey-stuff
- recommend-a-link, your own or
whoever's.
Kali's back from Brazil, btw.. Kali's cool letters have been moved to their own page.. Go
there to read Kali's translation of 'Lilywhite Lillith' into Portuguese
and her Poem Of Toast And Pete!
Thanks for coming..
If you want to give me some feedback, please drop me a line at

Til then I'm filling this out with a scrap from one of Armando Gallo's
books.
Gallo is an also cool guy who likes Genesis and he talked to pete and
pete talked about being a kid which appeals to me because I'm a kid.
Well you'd probably guessed that too.
"... any money you could get at school was like gold dust.
You could buy records and sweets with it, which were
the two most important things in life!" (Lith nods vigorously)
"I liked burning things. I used to go and make fires. I used to
build dams too in the river that ran through the farm, and swim in it.
But these people called the Thames Conservancy Crew used to come
by in a punt once in a while, and they would destroy my dams. We
would sit on the bank of the river and flick acorns at the two men as
they worked. . . . I used to look at dragonflies 'butterflies,
flutterbies,
gutterflies...' " sang Peter. "They used to fly around the river on the
farm
and now, fifteen years later, they have all disappeared, which is sad."
