Apparently, it figured out some way to make microprocessors 1/3 more productive. Starting to sound like it's self-aware, to me. Spooky.

A long rant/improv/diss during one of the shows I saw, Friday's or Saturday's (don't remember which). Who are Semi-sonic? Jian seemed especially bent on spoofing them. I gather they've got a single out that's getting a lot of radio play, but as I don't generally listen to the radio (though Boston certainly has better stations than Ft. Lauderdale did!), I wouldn't know. ceecee ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 13:19:41 GMT From: "Demetriou, Melanie" Subject: RE: Vic Hadfield On Sunday, August 02, 1998 10:04 PM, gorbitron@aol.com [SMTP:gorbitron@aol.com] wrote: > For those of you at Saturday's show, you know that we had the pleasure of > having 70s hockey "great" Vic Hadfield introduce the band.

My poor bewildered husband asked me very quietly after the show, "Did that guy really play for the Rangers?" He meant Mike, of course.

This is the third online column regarding our beloved Canadians, and it'd be nice to keep a tally of the nice vs. not-so-nice ones, just to help justify our addiction. - - Blaze: can quit anytime he wants to. ------------------------------ Date: 3 Aug 1998 15:55:45 GMT From: bodaceah@aol.com (Bodaceah) Subject: Re: Frustock aka KoP show review (really long) >> >(something like Let's Play to the Chief?) >> >> An improv? >> >Actually I think that was the one about Rush Limbaugh -- The Greatest Man >in America?

I wouldn't fret about it i suspect that there are enough of us old farts out there to form our own geriatric ward at the shows. Maybe we could form our own section where they serve nothing but prune juice and enemas. jude ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 16:48:08 GMT From: dacilen@bu.edu (Vika Zafrin) Subject: Re: "Well, bless Canada for bringing us these boys" On Mon, 03 Aug 1998 09:22:43 -0500, Marty Blase wrote: >Is anyone archiving all these reviews on the website, by the way?

Someone on The Nields mailing list posted some comments about the moxy fruvous show on Saturday at SoNo. Generally positive, but there was also this bit: > i have a couple moxy questions though - during the concert, both (but in > separate instances) mike and jian seemingly randomly got mad at the people > in the front. i couldn't get the image of mike cursing directly at me out > of my mind for the rest of the concert, which kind of made the concert less > fun. were there specific reasons they did this, or were they just joking? I'm assuming this was all humor. But I wasn't at the SoNo show, and I'm curious: What was it fruvous said that might have given this poster that impression? Anyone who was there remember anything relevant? -- Cos (Ofer Inbar) -- cos@leftbank.com cos@cs.brandeis.edu -- The Left Bank Operation -- lbo@leftbank.com http://www.leftbank.com/ "We're a bunch of geeks, and so is our audience.

Of course, at the Styleens show they said they were going to back to Albany, which isn't on their schedule either. :) Anyone know any more?
