16 Apr 01 - 05:59 PM (#441999) Subject: RE: anyone heard of Blackbush? From: GUEST,sssbean1@aol.com There is a group from the north of Germany, around Kiel, named Black Bush. They record primarily in English and have performed in Germany, Denmark, UK and US. After recording 2 CDs, they changed personnel. Their only founding member and lead singer is Detlev Wittenberg. I don't have a current address for the group, but one can be located if anyone is interested. |

From: Peter Kasin If you'd like to find the German group, Black Bush, to see if there would be any conflict with your new band name, you might want to contact Mystic Seaport in Connecticut, where Black Bush performed at the 1999 Mystic Seaport sea music festival. Try them at: www.mysticseaport.org/communicate/tell.us.html and put "Attn: Forebitter." (they are the singers who organize the fest) -chanteyranger |

I've since found a porno site called ' Black Bush Spread Wide Open',but I'm sure none of you are interested in that sort of thing....does anyone think we should change the name? Any suggestions? |

Would that be Black or Red Bush?
Wide Open could be quite a good name too... |
