If you're flying across the border you will need a birth certificate or your passport (although I have done it without, but I think they were being nice since I was back for a funeral....*sigh*). I guess I should look into the special driver license since I am renting a vehicle while there....

(OK, actually I don't like to dance, much, but I was curious and the title just fit...) I've only seen one show. It was at the Birchmere in Virginia. Nobody dances at the Birchmere. It just isn't done or something. I dunno. But I was curious: do people dance at Fruvous shows normally? I've been to quite a few TMBG shows where there is always dancing, to the point where if it becomes too ...energetic... They will ask the audience to not be a danger to themselves or others. Does this happen occasionally -- ever -- at Fruvous shows? I'm asking out of curiousity; I stay in the no-passing zone, but some of the songs are too good to sit still.

Well, there's quite a bit more worrying when you're flying due to the ease of crossing over for *good*. Also, they're kinda worried about bombs for some reason. When you're driving, they're not so concerned. Especially in Buffalo, where a huge number of people are crossing just to visit the sites, NiFalls, etc. - --Novac "It's is not, it isn't ain't, and it's it's, not its, if you mean it is.

"Idle banter" on a newsgroup is one thing. Walking up after a concert and asking is quite another. (And I hope the assembled FruMasses smack the asker 'upside the head. Repeatedly.) - -- chad@ radix.net ------------------------------ Date: 7 Aug 1998 00:24:06 GMT From: fruwench@aol.com (FruWench) Subject: Re: More on K of P >> ladywench >> >> (Mike likes my car!!!!!) > >what type of car is it? > >-- >chad@ hee hee - my favorite topic!! Well, only after Fruvous . . . I am restoring a 1966 Dodge Dart named MiLady de Beast, affectionately known as MiLady. I brought her around to where the Lads were hanging out after the King of Prussia show to show her off, then was too shy to go babble about her. As Mike was leaving he yelled "Great Dodge Dart, she's a beauty!" or something like that. I almost fell off the trunk and hid behind her. I am also ashmed to admit that I froze so bad I didn't even wave. *blush* I hope Mike doesn't think i was being rude and obnixous. Why, oh WHY can't I be a normal human being around the band? *sigh* Ah well, back to the shadows . . . ladywench (Mike likes my car!!!!!)

I laughed so hard, and I'm sure no one else knew why... He actually always does that. If you watch him & Dave together, they kind of nod/indicate at each other, actually. "No, *he's* gay."

Having lived on the border for a long time... (yeah Buffalo!) I have never had any problems crossing the border via a car. I never had to check my insurance or carry my passport (although I guess both are a good idea). Typically the border patrol person is pretty friendly (aren't most canadians?) and all you need do is tell them you're from the states, going to toronto cause you're a Moxy Fruvous nut, and just let you in *wink*.

Yes, Upper Merion Township shot a video and yes, IT WILL BE AVAILBLE. It's been moved to the top of the editing list, but still might take a few weeks. To get your copy, call Video Services at 610-265-2600 during business hours and request a copy. It will cost $25, unless you live in this area and can drop off your own tape (then it costs $20). Enjoy people! Mary, who will be arriving in Toronto in exactly 24 hours. PS Please watch for future posts on this. If the video people become overwhelmed with calls, we'll have to come up with another way to do this. - -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V1 #233 ********************************************
