Jim Shiltz writes with updates on the Unofficial OMD Covers website. A new cover version is up: Messages from D Marcs and P Marsh. The website has a new section called OMD Live. This section will keep fans updated on when and where they can go to hear OMD covers live. There's also details of planned performances by Invisible College and Roger Erickson.

Plans are also under way to develop the Official Covers section. Jim adds: "Our plans are to develop this into a comprehensive discography of all officially released OMD covers including cover art and audio clips. We have some good content up there already, but are asking everyone to contact us if they know of anything more".

There's also a new monthly newsletter which will keep people informed of updates on the Unofficial OMD Covers website. Click here to sign up: www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~usasw/newsletter.htm.
