Left of Cool.

gushes over the constantly these days.

I dunno, Zard, "The Policeman Outside The Tent" song @ Amherst in May
was quite good. :)

/me could probably pass for stage security if I tried. <insert burly

Subject: 8-29-96 on DAT?

Anyone have this show on DAT? (Or CD?)
I'd love a copy... it was, if I remember correctly, my first show!
:)

If so, drop me a line, and we can set up a trade.

Thanks,
nate

Okay okay.... I admit it, I made a gross generalization.
I guess what I should have said was, "The openers *I've* seen haven't
been all that great."

I have to say, I've never seen any of those great bands opening for
fruvous......
Though I DID see the Paperboys open at the horse, and that was quite
alot of fun.
Soooo... I guess I'll retract that statement, modify it, and resubmit
it....

Sure, with the advancements in genetic engineering as of late, we should be
able to develop the ubermench in a couple of years. ;-) (j/k, please no
thread on genetic engineering)

*heehee*  and then there's the gems like "white lightning,"  whose sole
purpose seems to be making fruvous look even more spectacular when they
come onstage.  (anyone at the cinci concert wanna back me up? ;p)

hoping my emissary to canada will bring back a GBS album,

You were at that show? That was my first Frushow. Funny, when you said that
about openers, I thought "Wow, I loved The Paperboys. Guess he didn't see
them." But I was wrong, wasn't I? :-)

Do you (or anybody) happen to have the second Paperboys' CD? If so, how is
it? I bought the first one at the Iron Horse, and I like it. I must say,
though, they have *much* more presence in person.

Right.  "We're [sick and] tired of having that woman's face on our
money."  This phrase never fails to appear in that li'l part of the
banter.  :)

And Tory.  Can't forget Tory.

Speaking of whom, anyone know if he's gonna travel around with the
guys anytime soon?  It'd be really really really neat to see him
again...

And - Torontonians - do any of you know if he has any gigs scheduled
for the Bonus Weekend?  With Fruvous or without?

/me bows

And if any of y'all want to get fed anytime soon, better let me know
soon!  I guess, this is a good time to tell y'all (those who don't
know) that, come September, I'll be Little Slave Girl to graduate
school.  I have recently received a reading list (concentration:
Italian, mainly film and theatre, but you don't get away from the lit)
that I have to get through in the next year or so, and it's twelve
pages worth of titles.  So I'll be disappearing and reappearing again
in moments of sanity.  There are Frushows that I definitely want to
attend (like the Halloween Iron Horse ones, if they happen - info on
that, anyone?), and you can bet I'll be at FruCon Deux, but I will
probably not be nearly as active in ng/e-mail activity as I've been.

Oh, at least don't start cheering til I've finished the post!  "Yay,
she's gonna shut up!!!"  ;)

Wellwishes etc. are always welcome.  Mostly, I'd probably want you to
start saying all kinds of really nasty things about me - in Russia, it
is believed that the more bad things you say about a person, the more
good luck they'll have.  You can really have a lot of fun with that
one.

Signing off (off to Falcon Ridge in... THREE AND A HALF HOURS!!!),
