...Long before Axis was a band, before the demo or even the idea of a demo, Axis was a collection of short stories, art and other media by Mike and brooke. If i was able to persude them to give me access (or axis) to the vaults is this somthing that the patients would be interested in seeing?
Also how about things like, Tabs, lyrics, music recording/playing techniques, equipment set up ect would patients be interested in haveing a section of the hospital dedicated to this sort of thing?
Any comments/requests/pleas of pain regard the hospital leave 'em here

Very cool ideas! Especially keen on the short stories and tabs, but all would be very welcome additions to the hospital library.

That simply would be great. All things concerning The Axis are important.

I do agree.... treatments must be viable in all forms, must they not? Therefore, I believe- as a patient- that I would certainly love to see all of this, especially the beginnings of the institution... and "how to's" onto administring treatment with strings.

Alas, I have been exposed to some of the stories. They are there in the void for he/she who actively seeks them. Very Lovecraftian but Mike, what happened after the copper bashed his brains out??! Question is, do you want me to provide the website link?

To be honest, I was looking for online interviews with the band (none seem to exist) and I stumbled across the stories by accident. I was impressed by them too! However, some seem to be without an ending

The only Axis related story I'm interested in digging out of the vaults is "Daddy Long Legs", which was passable. The ones I wrote earlier were mostly, not to put too fine a point on it, shite. If any axis scribblings are made public, it'll probably be something new.
The band can provide any old material you want, Admin dirt creature - if we choose to.

Ive been doing some of my own digging, would any of the patients care to read such tales as, pulse fear, daddy long legs, the broken seal and the whippoorwill house, affair from the pens of or more accuratlely the keyboards of Myklon and Brooke. All proto Axis tales and quite interesting in thier way. on another note would the patients like a board on which they could post thier own creative writings?

The absolute history and mythology behind the Axis is extremely intriguing to me, and as such, would love to elaborate upon it in numerous other stories of my own (in fact, I have already begun to, yet, the whole concept can not be fleshed out due to the lack of material available from the Progenitors themselves!)

The thing is, the majority of the "history" depicted in those stories was outdated and discarded even at the time of the "Corridors" demo, so anyone expected get a grasp on the conceptual substance behind the music will be disappointed; the stories you can find online are nothing more than curios really, barring "Daddy Long Legs" which fits in with the modern concept (but which like all the older stories is so stupifyingly pompous and pretentious it makes me feel obligated to slap myself for several hours at a stretch).
We have better things in the vault than that stuff; we'll have a look.

Well....here's the link (sorry Mike!). Scroll down and find Michael and Brooke's names under the relevent stories. I think 'Daddy Long Legs' is about the only one I've yet to read so I'll do that. Come on, Mike, they ain't so bad, better than a lot of so called 'horror' stuff out there! pages.prodigy.net/gobackstage/chaos-digest-v31-40.htm(you probably have to copy & paste, I'm crap )

Found the stories. Read a few bits and really like what I've read so far. The stories I can find are;
Pulse Fear The Broken Seal The Whippoorwill House Affair (Chpt 1-4) An Evening With Asmodeus Daddy Long Legs (Part A)
What order do they go in? And does The Whippoorwill House Affair Chapter 5 and DLL Part B exist?
