Oh and while I'm here haha... who added the Fantastic Plastic video? And why? Sure it's got the word 'fantastic' in it, but it's not The Fantastic Leslie...

Thea: None of the songs can be played from this site, only Andrew's songs can be streamed from the site. You can free download 5 of the Leslie songs from mp3.com.au and as you can see Larissa kindly uploaded 2 Leslie and 1 Mending songs to download here.

yeah I reckon, I wish someone actually had these songs, they all sound so great! the pics didnt work on my comp. either I think its just because its an old site

DrummerGirl6788
Wow thanks for that link AndrewsHair! Shame most of the images don't load anymore (Or is that just me not installing those pop ups?) So those extra songs listed in the 6 month area are genuine Leslie songs, not just incorrect tagging or different band with same name - I want to hear them!! Superstar Stole My Girlfriend sounds like it'd be good!

I have three songs, on top of the other ones that I have, that many other people seem to not have. These be 'at the chime of a city clock', 'moving right along' and his mending song 'last feasible instant'....I shall try to work out how to post these as soon as possible :)

Does anyone have any idea what those last five songs (over in the top tracks, last 6 months section - ones such as Habit In My Head & Superstar Stole My Girlfriend) are? I mean, I only thought that they had recorded (& released) the ones off A Tiny Mark & Moving Right Along & At The Chime Of A City Clock...any help would be much appreciated.

Laylabenning: That's alright don't be sorry! It was worth a shot! I checked play4me today and they still had it listed so I guess us questioning it doesn't make them get rid of it off their site!! Trish: Yeah exactly right, I would have thought seeing as they do still have it listed they'd atleast make an effort to get it in seeing as we've been lead to believe they have it but they don't

I guess that music retailers have such a huge catalogue that they can't keep up with everything that is/isn't available, and don't know to remove an item until someone tries to order it. Pain in the bum though, you'd think their suppliers would tell the retailers, Uh, yeah, sorry, not selling that, that or that anymore. Would make our lives a lot easier (and lead to less disappointment!)

Ohhhhhh, sorry for the bad steer there guys, I assumed like you guys that if a website has it up, it ACTUALLY HAS IT!! Crazy I know! Stupid Red Eye...

DrummerGirl6788
I'm a bit suprised that both the play4me and Red Eye even listed the TFL CD if they know they don't carry them and can't get them in stock for us! It'll be interesting now to see if they delete them off their websites seeing as we've asked about it and know we can't buy them.

DrummerGirl6788
Ha ok weird, well I'll save you the wait - they said back to me RE TFL that they don't appear to have it on their system anymore therefore can't order it. And RE Mending, they'd never heard of them and their best advise was perhaps they only sold their CD at their gigs, but who knows if they even did any gigs. Soo case in point - bugger all luck.

...nope! But expect it will come soon. :`-( PLEASE, TO THE T.F.L. LISTENER WHO HAS 'MOVING RIGHT ALONG', I IMPLORE YOU, PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE (WITH A CHERRY ON TOP!) UPLOAD THE MP3! WE WOULD BE FOREVER GRATEFUL AND WOULD SUPPLY YOU WITH INTERNET COOKIES AND PIE! *puppy dog eyes*

And can I add, which has nothing to do with anything really - how funny and mesmerising it is when both our avatars are moving together LOL, could watch for hours. It's like Andrew's cheering on Chris and Craig HA!!

DrummerGirl6788
Well, there's someone still out there with the Moving Right Along song..it's back on the top tracks last week list. I think Mending will be impossible to get but cross fingers Red Eye will be able to help!

I've given redeye a shot too, but not too confident. Looks like it's on the impossible to buy list! :-(

Jeez..they shouldn't have it on their website at all then!! Not happy Jan. Well, I e-mailed the site laylabenning kindly posted so hopefully I'll have a reply tomorrow and I'll let you know. I asked them about Mending as well.

DG: I got the email today - they are unfortunately unable to get it from their supplier, or something to that effect. *sigh*

Trish: Gah we're getting conflicting e-mails! I e-mailed play4me lastnight and had a reply this morning - they said that A Tiny Mark has been deleted off their database and is no longer available to order! I'm confuzzeled! Laylabenning: Cheers for the link! I'll check it out right now!

Hi guys Try www.redeye.com.au - they reckon they can ship within a week. Good luck!

it's horrible compared to TFL which has 5 songs to download compared to the one Mending one. If I get time tomorrow to e-mail play4me I might ask them too about Mending, mention the 18 track album and see if they know anything...they'd have more 'contacts' with people in the know of older bands surely.

Lol think of it this way - it's really only 1am but because of stupid daylight savings it's 2am! I've never posted on the Chaser forums but I've read posts about Mending on there and people have only said how they've got the 1 song and can't find anything more. Mending gets a bad review on the mp3.com.au site so I'd be a bit more prone to think Mending was before TFL but got added in later because

And HOLY SH!T it's 2am, I need to get to bed! I blame Andrew for keeping us up late!

MissTrish1984
I noticed that TFL artist # on mp3.com.au is something like 346,whereas for Mending it's 7 thousand and something,and I don't think they're numbered alphabetically which makes me wonder of Mending appeared on that website later?(And therefore is the 'newer' band?)I'm still a newbie on the Chaser boards so I'm a bit scared to ask if anyone has any Mending stuff!But that may be the place to find it.

DrummerGirl6788
I think Mending may have been *before* TFL...I'm not really sure but I think we'd have more of a chance of finding Bin Laden then the Mending album lol.

MissTrish1984
Felt the need to adjust Andrew's Wikipedia page to include a reference to Mending. :-D

MissTrish1984
Why have I never heard of this other band? I'm missing out here! How long ago was Mending around? If they're a bit more recent than TFL we may have more luck getting their album. *is hopeful*
Actions
-
DrummerGirl6788
Oh and (nothing to do with TFL), but I'll add it here seeing as no one posts on Andrew's other band Mending last.fm page. I had a look and found that Mending had 1 album called Songs To Ignore with 18 tracks...but again I've searched for the album but came up with nothing. And there's only the 1 song off it that's available for free download.

Ooh yep play4me is where I saw it and was going to order it from too. Dang.. I think I'll still e-mail them and ask them what's the go - perhaps if they notice there's more then 1 person after the EP they'll do more of an effort to get it in. I'll keep you posted!
Actions

MissTrish1984
play4me.com.au is where I ordered it from, though I have a feeling all places that have the EP listed get it from the same supplier, meaning chances of getting it legally are zilch. I dearly hope someone who listens to those extra songs reads this message board and can provide the mp3s! *fingers crossed*
Actions
-
DrummerGirl6788
Where'd you try and order the EP from? I know of one site where it's listed, I can send them off an e-mail asking about the availabiity or the process of trying to order it. I want to order it too but I haven't got the cash for it at this moment.

MissTrish1984
Hmmm, not looking good re: purchasing Tiny Mark EP - got an email saying they were waiting on the supplier. Exact same thing happened when I originally tried ordering from JB, so looks like I won't be getting it. *is sad* However, have made a request over at http://community.livejournal.com/audio_room so hopefully someone will have 'Moving Right Along' and 'At the Chime of a City Clock'.

I think it's fletchjay (3rd top listener) with the new songs, I already commented to him but I haven't heard back from him. I also found someone else while googling with the Moving Right Along song but they too, haven't replied. =(
Actions

MissTrish1984
Alas, no luck with the googling. I would hazard a guess that they're actually songs from another band, or maybe live recordings of TFL, which is why it is so hard to find any info on them. If the person who listened to these tracks last week could post here, preferably with links to download the mp3s, we would all be most grateful! :-D

have you tried googling those song title tracks to see if they are the fantastic leslie?

DrummerGirl6788
Oooh hello MissTrish! Yeah I noticed thoes new songs appearing as well...never heard of them either. I hope you have luck ordering the CD! I actually ordered a CD from one site and I noticed they had A Tiny Mark on there to order but it's only got the 5 EPs on it which we already have.

MissTrish1984
Ooh, and going through old posts on the official Chaser boards, At the Chime of a City Clock (Nick Drake cover) is another one to get. Damnit I will find these songs!

MissTrish1984
...I've never heard of these songs, are they even from TFL? Or has someone got their artists confused? Or are these live songs that I must absolutely get my hands on? Oh TFL listener with these previously-unheard-of tracks, please answer us!

MissTrish1984
I've tried ordering the album from JB HiFi Online, but they couldn't get it, so now I'm trying another site, will upload for you if I can get hold of it. But what are these other songs that have appeared? *looking at top tracks, last week* Grow Into Me, Habit in my Head, Superstar Stole My Girlfriend, Burn Enough for Me and I'd Better Not Say...
