I wonder if it's an either side of the Atlantic thing whereby those on the east tend to take offense at things, esp. religious things, more easily? I'm not trying to take the piss or anything but that's the way it seems to me...at times. For example, hopefully Richard will back me up here, we have a show called "Father Ted" over here about three Irish priests and their erm, shenanigans (?), adventures (?).

Thank you for writing such a detailed review because I'd forgotten a lot of the specifics of the show. All I remember is that the show seemed so terribly short. I suppose I was expecting them to play a full two sets like they used to. Oh well, keep 'em wantin' more, I guess. I also found your bus travels to be hysterical!! I've never had the joy of traveling cross country on a Greyhound, and after hearing of your exploits, I may never even consider it! :-) It certainly sounds like an adventure, though, and I'm glad you made it back safely. My God! Was the show only 5 days ago? Wow. It seems like it's been a month since the show. I think I need to get a job.

Anyway, I don't remember your locale, but every August at Pennsic (SCA weeklong camping event) there's a perfume merchant who can copy just abou= t any scent. My friend Rob had this scented oil that he only had spare drops l= eft of, and couldn't remember where he got it from.

It's a thought, if you have no lu= ck finding Andiamo anywhere else :^) 2a) on a similar vein, re: Natural Jian Scent- okay, here's a sick bit = o' trivia. In the days of the Roman Empire the essence of gladiators was considered quite the aphrodisiac amongst rich citizens. After their exercising and competitions, etc the gladiators would rub themselves down= with olive oil, then scrape the oil off with a dulled knife-like implement. T= he oil, combined with the sweat and dirt, would be scraped into a bowl by a = slave or attendant.

Harvest the essence at all the venues before FruCon and have it re= ady just in time for FruCon!!! Pass some of the bottles to Tobey and maybe g= ive him a cut of the profits... then of course some rinky-dink company in Top= eka will create an Imposter "If you like Eau de Jian, you'll love Smells like= Jean" and the whole thing will go down the toilette...

PLEEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEE don't go chasing him around saying "= Jian, can I have your sweat?", I think I'd meet a most unglorious and offbeat d= eath at the hands of the Toronto Mafia (after all, anyone who's anyone in Cana= da has connections). hahahaha (I warned you, too late to complain now!!!) on a bit more serious note, if he does where any kind of scent (this is a= ll my personal and humble opinion, of course), I would guess it's probably noth= ing quite as strong as Patchouli, but perhaps a subtle scented oil like my fr= iend Rob wears (you can get commercial versions of a lot of these oils at plac= es like the Body Shop). These oils are designed to mix with your own sweat = and pheremones(?) to create a personal and unique scent. I haven't been able= to find a good match just yet, I usually can only test about 4 or 5 scents b= efore my olfactories go on strike for a few hours.
