RE: AP (HP on Human Touch Tour)

I was just talking to Matt's brother and his belief was that HP would 
still be on the tour but Matt would not be with them. Hey Joyce, are you 
there? What's the scoop? 
I should be able to provide more details tomorrow assuming I can get a 
hold of Matt (and that I am allowed to tell you this stuff).
As for that AP review of HP, well, that guy who reviewed it must be 
wandering around with his head up his hole. How can he compare them to 
Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson, & Nirvana and then say they have no hooks! 
All the people he compares them to are awesome and write very simple 
identifiable catchy hook laden songs. You can't place Hardship Post in 
company like that without thinking they've got something catchy on the 
go! Perhaps the reviewer was hoping for some sort of Human League New 
Wave style and was disappointed with the lack of Keyboards on the record. 
I guess Mike's piano playing wasn't good enough for him. :)
Love, HUB
