Hey, are you too on the Kinks mailing list, Magnus? Or have you just
found this mail by "accident"?
I was going to send in this bit myself!

It's great to be both a Kinks and an Oils fan, more than once either
band has been mentioned on the other's mailing list. Stories like this
also prove that it's not strange to love both bands!
