New Site Policy

The intention of this site is to give accurate data about Scientologists who are celebrities. In doing that myself and the other authors have sometimes written articles about people who have not themselves come out and announced the fact that they are Scientologists. This is violating their privacy and is what tabloids and gossip web sites do. It also leads to arguments of the "No he isn't!" "Yes he is!" style (Is this a five minute argument or the full half-hour?).

So to avoid this I'm instituting a new policy to only blog about celebrities who are openly Scientologists. That way we don't violate anyone's privacy or get into silly arguments.

I'll be removing articles that violate that policy over the next few weeks.

And one last thing. This site is nothing to do with the Church of Scientology. The authors are private individuals who have an interest in this area. Just thought ya'll should know that.

Beck Reissue's 1994 Album With 16 New Songs!

For its 15th anniversary, Beck will reissue his 1994 album One Foot in the Grave on April 14th, with reportedly 16 additional songs tacked onto the original track list. Interscope Records will handle the reissue. The LP was originally distributed by K Records and recorded before — but released after — Beck’s breakthrough major label debut Mellow Gold.

The news of the reissue first appeared in Japanese paper Daily Yomiuri, which interviewed Beck before his tour of Japan this month. “Well, it’s been out of print for a few years, so it’s something we’ve been planning, but I knew that we had these extra tracks. I’ve actually been working on this for the past two or three years,” Beck told the newspaper. “[On] the original tapes there were an extra maybe 30 songs that weren’t on the record and I picked the best… and added them on there, so it’s got about a little over a dozen extra tracks that no one’s heard before.”
