Even the drummer gets a better shot, and he has >face-obscuring equipment. Just to let you know, I talked to Dave himself about that part of the movie. He said that the reason he wasn't in that shot is because that scene was shot in America and due to some screwups he didn't have a valid work permit. If he had gone to work in America and been caught, he would have been banned from going to America for 10 years.(we wouldn't want that to happen!) He wasn't even present in the shot, it was a stand-in in a wig so they couldn't do a close-up. I myself enjoy this movie although I'm known as the B-movie queen among my friends. I just thought you'd like to hear the story behind that part anyway. *a lurker named Sandy Insight is often mistaken for madness- Sir George Hutchinson;The Awakening ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Dec 1998 23:03:43 GMT From: "P.

What are you talking about, remember dot matrix printers? Up until this Christmas it was all I had to go with my 386 with 8 MB of RAM, runing Windows 3.1 and takes three or four tries to boot. Takes 45 minutes to print 26 pages on one of those things. Thankfully, my begging for a new printer was finally rewarded.

No, actually, in an effort to conserve energy and put all the world's resources towards furthering space travel, we've opted to all move to the polar regions and live off the land. Ok so it wasn't a very funny joke.... My 2cents worth: in Michigan it's pop. in Texas it's all coke (hey hon you want a coke? sure, I'd love a mountain dew) in Nashville, it's coke... sometimes... and soda... sometimes... and pop... sometimes. I think it's the culturally diverse group of country music star-wanna-be types that settle here. :-/ Arabel ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 00:38:44 GMT From: scoper@netcom.com (Scott Perschke) Subject: Re: ????The Bottom line????

Not to mention the rumor that >SRO tickets may be sold, but its not like everyone doesnt get all close >and "buddy-buddy" anyway at fruvous shows.... :) Whenever shows are sold out, as (at this point) the late show Thursday is, the Bottom Line always will sell roughly 50 standing room tickets per show. The only place they allow you to stand is over by the bar to the far left of the room (stage Murray), which is actually not a bad place to see a show. Be prepared to get to know your neighbor *very* well, though! For those attending 2 shows in any night, that area is also the place where you'll hang around while they clear the club. You'll then get a chance to either reclaim or upgrade your seats. As for me, I've got my reserved table in the back.... look for us in the center rear, underneath the light booth. We'll be there for both shows tomorrow, though Ken has deserted us for greener pastures, and will want to sit down front.
