manintherain Group: Members. Posts: 546 Joined: Mar. 2004 Posted: April 01 2011, 04:30 As far as I´ve been told, he was here just once and said nothing but "Hello" but nobody seemed to care. Back to top

Matt Group: Admins Posts: 1186 Joined: Nov. 2002 Posted: April 01 2011, 04:46 Forum post wasn't actually as long a message as "Hello" two visits as far as we know: "IMPRESSIVE" "hi" -------------- "I say I say I say I say, what's got three bottles and five eyes and no legs and two wheels" Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: April 01 2011, 19:54 Back in the good ol' days when this very website - yes, tubular.net - had a chat app which actually worked on its own, in September 2002. MusicallyInspired, Korgscrew, Mike Oldfield and me had a chat right there. He was very kind and answered to all of our questions. I remember every little thing of it as if it happened only yesterday, and no, I'm not quoting. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: April 02 2011, 18:46 @ Syd: yes, seriously. I was wrong yesterday - it was Tim Highfield, not Brandon (a.k.a. Musically Inspired) who was in with me and Korg and Mike. @ oGUH: no, I didn't save anything. The app was very simple back then, it didn't allow me to save anything. @ nightspore: when the site was redesigned by Olivier, the app was gone. So ask him... -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4770 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: April 03 2011, 02:04 Quote (oGUH @ April 03 2011, 00:09) don't you remember any questions you asked back then? It was probably "When will the next album come out?" or "Would you be interested in using Vicki as an avatar in your next game?" Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: April 03 2011, 07:20 I asked: - Whose vocal was that on the Sana Rosana section of Taurus II. (Answer: Mike, using Maggie's voice as a vocoder input.) - Where did the bent bell idea come from. (Answer: Mike dented a tubular bell by hitting it very hard with a sledgehammer, Trevor Key did the rest. ) - Whether the words in Hergest Ridge Part II mean anything. (Answer: No, they don't.) - Whether the words in Ommadawn Part I mean anything. (Answer: Yes, they do. ) - How was MVR conceived and what was its purpose. (Short answer: MVR was conceived as a game for virtual travelling, exploration and relaxation as opposed to "shooting people and things all the time".) I also asked him whether his long nails (which he never cut) caused him any problems when playing piano or keyboards. He said they didn't. These were, more or less, my questions. Korgscrew's and Tim's were more technical, and I don't really remember them - in spite of what I wrote above. Vicki wasn't in my house yet - that was 2002. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top
