Harriman) Subject: Directions to the Iron Horse? All - Thanks to everyone who answered my taping question. Now I have another, more general question. Mainly, how does one get to the Iron Horse? (I am coming from Tufts University, which is near Boston) Is it right off of the Mass Pike (aka I-90 for all of you non-Massachusetts folks), or am I completely off? Also, what type of place is it? Are there seats? Should I plan on eating there? etc. Any info would be appreciated. See all of you at the Paradise tomorrow and at NoHo on Friday (I wasn't lucky enough to get a Halloween ticket...)!!! - --Josh. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Oct 1998 22:43:19 GMT From: Marie.Claude@canada.com Subject: Re: Fruv-o-lantern > Question from the ignorant American.....what the heck is Loblaws.

I have meet so many people this year that *have* heard of Moxy Früvous, and even some that are good fans who have been to a couple shows. It's really kinda cool walking by a dorm room and hearing GE&H blaring. later, tom. ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V1 #889 ********************************************
