I've got a costume planned, but just came up with a brilliant idea which I won't be using this year, so I toss it out to those who are searching, since I'd love to SEE it! A flamingo dancer - dressed up sort of like a flamenco dancer, but of course all in pink, perhaps carrying a plastic pink flamingo lawn ornament. - -Zard "www.washme.com" - seen on the back window of a filthy station wagon, heading to Owen Sound, ON ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 3 Oct 1998 01:48:26 EDT From: Srm9988n@aol.com Subject: Re: Frudegreens Ellen wrote: >and then there's bawlamer and 'naplis.

Thenk yew, thenk yew, thenk yew. As my first act as Cardinal of the Southwestern Chapter of the Church of Fruvous, I decree country music to be a mortal sin! :) Anyways, I would like it to be known that I have already begun my conversion efforts of those that I suspect of being susceptible to the sweet tunes and subtle melodies of the Fruvous Four. :) We shall go forth and multiply like so many bacteria. I will endeavour to make Fruvous playing at Deep Ellum Live or the Bronco Bowl (the guys would LOVE that place, someone remind me to tell the lads about it at NoHo), a reality.

Jian rocks my world :P hEY hEY kiddies... So i'm back from day one of Fruvous-bliss (yeahyeah, so i've never seen 'em before... you try living out here in no-man's land) :) Anyways, this evening in Denver was awesome (to say the least). Since I'm only a mere lurker over here I'm gonna review this as if i was on the TMBG-list... sorry if there's some other standard... Location: Denver, CO @ Swallow Hill Music Hall - October 2nd, 1998 Me and 6 of my posse (converts) attended tonights show... we made up a good portion of the audience... okay well, the place only holds what we estimated to be a little over 100 people (if that). very intimate... i loved it :) Everyone was seated... we decided to sit on the nice carpeted floor so we could be front row... let me just say it was worth it... The show started with like 5 minutes of SA's (stage announcements for those not hip with the DJ lingo). The chick mentioned "Moxy Fruvous" and they all ran on stage even tho she still wasn't done. we were all very grateful that they shut her up. First things first... they look so much better in person. don't get me wrong... i'm just a kid and i'm not like after their bods or anything... But it was pretty much agreed upon within my posse that Murray was the man, Jian's a cutie (that knows how to dress reeeeally well.. based solely on the few video boots i've acquired and tonights show), Dave's facial expressions throughout the show made him seem like a teddy bear, and Mike (aside from the fact that i think men should have to wear bootleg-esque jeans as well... ankle-huggers, ugh) looked totally blasted (as in drunk not like drug-type fried). i dunno what that was about. (does he always look that way?) Setlist (just over 60m): - -Message - -BJ (one arm) - -Medicine (they went off the mics here becuase it was such a small place... talk about the nice carpeted stage... and how it was the perfect andrew lloyd weber type stage, Jian started dancing off it... which was really funny.) - -Boss the song that got me hooked on Fruvous... prolly my fave song still (pisco's up there now). "come for the singing, stay for the dancing" - -Spidey what can I say... the pyrotechnic portion of the show was excellent (heh) :) - -Sad - -Pisco - -Hold the three new songs... i love 'em :) without a doubt they're already some of my faves. when's the next album coming out? To my delight, Murray mentioned something about being sweaty and soon enough Jian was singing a bit of sweaty guy/particle man :) yay! - -Michy - -Tureen - -Sauce - -King the turf at mile high... now the 'lanch (avalanche) call me up to drive.... - -Green okay so from what I've heard, i saw the short (?) version... where very little was acted out. I think if i could see any song live the long version of this would be it... - -Potion heh, that was the coolest cover-medley i've ever heard.... (and I thought Homegrown's cover of "barbie girl" was funny) :) ENCORE: - -Gulf i dunno, this live was awesome but Mike was out there... I'm still in awe at all the banter... Anyways, there was a 20 minute "Intermission" after their set before the nields came on... we went out into the lobby and were just hanging around when there we see Jian talking to some people. Anyways, he was super cool, said he saw my post this afternoon and grabbed me a set-list (but i'd already stolen Dave's) so my bud LIndsey took that one... he signed a grip of our stuff, which was cool, cuz like i said, we had a *grip* of stuff for him to sign :) I dunno, perhaps i've just been seeing the wrong bands, but when the members are cool to their fans it just makes me like the bands that much more... Well anyways, I bootlegged the show, it's the best bootleg i've ever produced but considering the fact that the only other show i've ever bootlegged was an eagle eye cherry show a while back... For those of you that trade TMBG boots... it's high quality for TMBG boots which is at best average (?) for other groups i'm sure. I'm totally psyched about seeing them in a barn tomorrow night :) but i should go now because i've got 4 and some odd hours worth of driving to do in the morning so i can make it to this show...
