Yohooo and welcome to another edition of :

SPREAD DA WORD

Once again jam-packed with public announcements
for and from the scene. Maybe someone remember the
previous issue and its 'Spread da word'.. Last time I
made a mistake and deleted the chapter so I had to
write it all over again. But his time I have been more
carefull, so you should better be ready.
Ok let's get it started.

--------------------------------------------
The first one is from an old scener who have a great
offer for all of you who have a Pc and a CD-rom. But
why don't you check it out yourself ??
--------------------------------------------

Have you ever looked at your hundreds of C64 disks
sitting in the corner of your room and thought to
yourself "I wish I could have all those files in one
place"

Well now is your chance, we have spent the past 6
months slowly transferring Bod's entire C64 collec-
tion over to the PC to blow onto CD-Rom.

Now you have a chance to own a copy of this CD-Rom.
The CD contains 600mb of data including:

4400+ Games dated from 1982 to 1995
7700+ Demos and Magazines from 1985 to 1995
700+ Utilities. Everything you could ever think of.

The newest files on the CD are those I received this
weekend (14/4/95). Also many Tools in Amiga/PC for-
mat to manipulate/convert the images between for-
mats and to/from your 1541.

This is a great investment for any C64 user whether
your still active or just for nostalgia purposes.

All the files on the Cd are in C64S (PC) .D64 format
but and transferrable to any format you require in-
cluding to yer 1541

If you are interested in getting a copy of this great
CD for yourself, you can place an order by doing the
following.

The CD will cost 35 pounds. We can't accept payment
by personal cheques. Pay by Cash or Money Order to
the value of35 P ounds. I advise a Money Order which
are available worldwide from your local postoffice
or bank. Make sure you send UK Pounds and NOT your
local currency.

Make the Money Order payable to "XXXXXXXXXXXXX"
and mail it to this address :

High Voltage,
XXXXXXXXXXXXX

The CD will be shipped to you within 24 hours of re-
ceiving your order.

This is a genuine offer and not some scam to get your
hard earned cash. After being involved in the C64 for
so long I am just happy that I can now give all you
great Crackers/Coders/Musicians etc something
back for all the enjoyment you have provided me
over the years.
If you know Bod/Talent personally then feel free to
contact him to ask if this is a hoax. He was the one
that pushed me to get the CD completed.

If you have an Internet Account then feel free to
leave me mail with any questions you have to:

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This order is available up until the 13th of september
1995. So you have 5 months to place your order. I
hope you agree that the CD is a good idea.

Lastly if you also need a cable to connect your PC
to your C64 drive I can supply you with one of those
also. I can only supply PC cables & not Amiga
The PC to C64 Drive (1541/1581) cable costs10 pounds.
Just send a money order for the appropriate amount
and a letter stating you want the CD & cable.
Cable and CD totals 45 pounds

Dave/CDL/Hotline (1985-1988)
--------------------------------------------
Next one is another sad story. Another old legendary
group are dead. Which one you ask! Well read on and
find out!
--------------------------------------------

THIS IS A NOTE FROM SHUZE ALPHAFLIGHT

It has become apparant to me over the recent
months, that after Steve of Avantgarde and Laser
quit the scene, the group LASER, of which I am now
the leader, will not get back to its feet.

I tried, but I am not cut out for the leader material.
I do not wish to pass the leadership over, as all the
current members are too new to the group, so, as of
the 1st of may 1995, I, Shuze, declare LASER dead,
something I should have done a few months ago.

Laser was the longest surviving cracking group of
ALL TIME on any system, having been around since
1983, When steve started it on the c64, but since
about 1980 on the old Atari machines. that is no more.

The Laser member status before I declared da group
dead was:

SHUZE (now in Alphaflight)
JP (now in Mayhem)
KHAN (now in Avalon)
JUPITER (now in Powerage and Dle)
EDDIE THE HEAD (now groupless (I think))
RAZOR RAMON (now in Bronx/Lepsi)

And that is it.

I hope you realise what a bad time this is for the
scene, and will spread this file, and use it in your
magazines, just so that everyone knows. i can be con
tacted for swapping, both legal and illegal, and for
anything concerning SKYHIGH at this address :

SHUZE/ALPHAFLIGHT (n.o.e.)

XXXXXXXXXXXX

and there is no more to be said on the matter.

Hmmm, god knows what went wrong.. I have choosen to
believe that they are all active. Becoz if they have
left I presume they would have sent out a final send
to let me know they quitted.
But then again, maybe I'm wrong !!!

I hope to hear from you soon - my friends..

--------------------------------------------

Once more I would like to ask all the composers out
there to think about doing a tune for me and Skyhigh!
I have just been on the phone with Echo of Plush and
he promised to do a sending with some, immidiately.
Hmmm. let's see if he really does (he he, Kay!!)

Well SKYHIGH is looking for single player tunes with
the 'normal/ordinary' datas :

Location : $1000 - $1fff
Init : $1000
Play : $1003

Don't mind the style, I'll check them out and choose.

I would especially like to get some work from the
Polish scene. This time I got some from Lepsi Develop.
but that deosn't mean that I won't have any more. So
all you Lepsi'er please send me more of your work!!

And where should you mail it to :

BIZ KID OF CAMELOT

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This also the addy you should send all your letters,
reactions, ads and so on, to!!

Don't delay - send today

--------------------------------------------

Ok, you have reached the end of this chapter. If you
have anything you want to tell, or inform the scene
about then don't hesitate sending me a note. Ya know
where to send it!

It doesn't matter how you send it. I prefer if you
could write it in an up-scroll editor, or a simple note
maker.

Ok I gotta go!!!
