Off-topic yet again (oh, there's a big shock, right folks?) I noticed in the Spring Gulch flyer that there is also a Didjeridoo Workshop scheduled. I would LOVE to learn how to play one of these wonderful things. :) And yes, Chad, I do know what a festival workshop is. Usually they are not billed as a Workshop, however, but rather as something like a Didjeridoo Workshop, or a Political Commentary Workshop, or an American Artists Who Made The Trip To Ottawa Workshop, or some such thing.

I would be happy to try and broadcast the concert (I am a fan myself, and I'll be WAY out of town..) but there are a few problems.. Radio station programming aside, there are contractual issues to deal with.. I'm not sure what Moxy Fruvous (and their various managers, labels, publicists, and legal teams) allows as far as bootlegging - and this is approximately what it would be.. Bootlegging live to all of Rochester (or to 60 people via the Internet), or just a compressed recording after the fact.. I will get in contact with our advisor and CAB (who probably is paying for them to come on campus) and see if anything can be worked out. Then it will be a matter of either taping it (and later digitizing and compressing it for RealAudio listening) OR broadcasting it. In that case it would be mono, 1 time only, and someone else would have to run it because I'll be in Boston. :) My current prediction is that Moxy will contractually not allow anyone to rebroadcast their show (live OR taped) for free. It's a difficult request, but I'll look into it. - - Jeff Brand Engineering Director, WITR - - - - - - - - Jeff Brand Information Tech @ RIT v 716.321.9361 p 716.527.4990 - - - - - - - - - --------------A42FB970743336A2269271C7-- ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 01 Apr 1999 21:25:29 GMT From: "kristen fair" Subject: Re: allo, snorting fru-crack in response to chad's: >>You are now, and always will be "Jen."
