How many >lines did he have, etc... well, unlike that eddie movie [where i think he has one lines, but a bunch of close-ups & a lot of hair... if what i glean from nicole's posts is correct *grin*], dave had a *lot* of lines. he was the bad guy. he had long hair (ie, chin-length, parted on left). his role mostly entailed him growling, yelling, menacing, and stomping around as a rich young adult whose mansion was being taken away. he finds an evil-spirited mask, wreaks havoc on the local voodoo celebration [where *does* this show take place, anyway?], etc. funny thing is, my mother watched this show religiously when it was on tv originally, yet she doesn't remember this episode at all. we spent the show shouting out fruvous songs in the background, anyway... ["hey, ryan! don't let that crow attack you--get in the car!"] *ahem* similar to the eddie movie, there were *lots* of close-ups. he even had a southern accent. and tho' his character wasn't the type to say "soory," i noticed that his "aboot" was lacking the canadian pronunciation. quite impressive, dave-o. you're an american at heart. oh, & in the credits at the end, his name was listed first. *grin* wondering if this gets me more points on the purity test, ^kat^ "and i had a feverish dream" http://fly.to/the.midway.after.dark ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Feb 1999 22:35:24 -0800 From: cookie Subject: Re: Memories of Toronto, Part 1, Sunday KatieWow wrote: > > what's wrong with being a john denver fan? his work with the muppets was > incredible ;). > ~~kate No argument here!

I've been a fan of Fruvous since 1994 when a freind introduced me to both Bargainville and the indie tape. I fell in love and have been a little crazy ever since. I have got to thank Brent I guess it is (you know who you are - the one who screamed way to go Murray) for directing me here. I've spent far too much time here already reading evey message. So, I just have to say that I had a blast at the Frucon (especially when I won a CD copy of the indie tape) =) yeah! Saurday's concert was the best I've ever seen (it was my 8th show). The energy was great and the guys seemed to be in rare form. Plus, this weekend rocked since I actually ate at the Pizza Pizza for the first time ever (for a while I thought this was a reference to Little Cesears). Anyway, we ate there both Friday and Saturday night, and the guy working ther even recognized us. Kinda sad, huh? Anyway, I just wanna thank those who organized the Frucon. I loved being able to see the videos... the science video in particular.. BTW, does anyone know when that was made? We were trying to figure it out, but our roman numeral speak is not very good.
