Fop.

I was faced with a choice, at a difficult age. Would I write a book, or should I take to the stage

AT $66, CLEARLY TAKING THE PISS



It would potentially be quite special to go and see Shouty Kelis playing at the Metro in Melbourne. But the tickets are breathtakingly overpriced. It simply cannot be justified, for Fop. Even if she does have an all-girl band, and even if it is unusual for Melbourne to receive overseas artists who are not indulgent and difficult (playing the Corner Hotel) or playing in an arena. It does seem wasteful not going to something like this. However, after the Missy Elliott debacle, it's just not possible to take any more chances since we do not have money to, eg, burn.

We will just have to make do with the video for "Trick Me", which is a very nice shade of orange, a colour that everyone should like.

Dear Fop;

Been waiting desperately for a review of the "Missy Elliot Debacle". Is it there but I havn't seen it?

Yours sincerely;
Dan P

We did do a fairly half-hearted (to match her performance you see) review. It's down the page a bit. Basically, her performance was insuffient, but she had some very good dancers. And she's a tiny, Kylie-sized lady, too! Whoever would have thought.
