First of all, welcome to the Back Porch, markfisher; may your time here be pleasant.
While I came too late to the XTC party for Limelight, I do remember hearing of its popularity and importance in the fan universe. Congratulations on the new publication and especially the new material. I'm sure many an XTC fan will be delighted to have a copy to call their own.

Maybe I shouldn't have ordered before May 31st. Now my name will be out there for all to see, and I will soon be flooded with people knocking on my door, asking me if I, Introvertigo, would like to join their church. God damn it.
I'm kidding. I'm going to be flooded by such evangelicals irrespective of anything I do.

My copy arrived today. Apparently through some postal service snafu, a number of us Yanks didn't get our copies in a timely manner, but it's here now, so I will read through it as I watch the ultimate game of this year's World Series (World Series may seem like a misnomer given all of the teams are either in the U.S. or Canada, but I say we are generous allowing Canada one team; what can I say? I'm a giver).
