Online store features Wendy & Lisa merchandise

Madhouse Music Online has a new URL as well as a new selection of Wendy & Lisa products. The UK website specializes in Prince and related artists, and has recently added an expanded Wendy & Lisa section. Some items are listed online. There is also a blurb that to get the full listing of "7", 12", CD, CASS, POSTERS, MAGAZINES, BADGES ETC." to send a Self addressed envelope. There is also a full host of other related artists featured at the site, with tons of goodies for each, and multiple pages for Prince items.

[Miss Katrina wants to point out that Madhouse didn't ask for a blurb, but we thought they were cool and gave them one anyway. Still, we haven't used the site yet, and can't endorse it. Caveat emptor, and enjoy!]
