Fruvous played here in june 97 at the Rock Garden, was anyone there? I was, but the only thing i got to see was the line! It was a 19+ show, and i had taken the afternoon off school (OOH IM GOING TO HELL) to bus downtown and see the gang at the restuarant where they were doing an interview for the local radio station. I got to have a nice long conversation with them all, mostly with Murray, and i had asked Mike if there was any possible way he could get me in (i was only 16 at the time) but he said something about the really tight security and how he wanted to get his underage niece in, but couldnt, he told me just to show up and see what happens. I was so determined to see the show, so i came back that evening and met up with some older fru-friends, and hoped pitifully that i could maybe just walk in with them. So i managed to convince the bouncer that i had forgotten my ID and he finaly let me in. I was pumped! then i got to the second bouncer who turned me away. i explained to him that the first guy let me in, but to no avail. I ended up walking the whole 10 minutes back to my house. Damn, fruvous playing so freakin close, that if i closed my eyes and listened hard i probably coulda heard them, and i couldnt be there!! BUT AT LEAST IM NOT BITTER ABOUT IT. hehe, anyhoo, thats my story an Im stickin to it. gotta go get ready for niteschool now, where i can learn something more useful than ANAGRAMS. see yall luv jen, queen of the evil cheesemonkeys BTW if anyone wants their name anagrammed, shoot it on over to moi (middle name too-the more letters, the better it is) and i'll do it :) === "Did you know that 1 of 4 people is mentally/emotionally disturbed?

( I bought Smarties!) Funny you mention that. I've had two run-ins with Easter candy recently. One, I was in Rite-Aid and saw the scariest thing on the planet. They were, like, GIANT PEEPS. They were approximately four inches tall, three quarters of an inch thick, and just as radioactively coloured as the originals (they come in both the chicks and the bunnies). How completely frightening is that, huh? Two, I was flipping through Time magazine and came upon the funniest article (maybe it was funny because of the picture - -- Bilby's are freaky looking!) which I will type for you here (it's short). I take no responsibility for the quality of the reporting...: _Elmer Fudd Down Under_ In Australia few animals are as loathed as the rabbit. A non-native, it outbreeds and outeats the local fauna. That's why the Easter Bilby has caught on. The beady-eyed 5lb. marsupial is on the endangered-species list thanks to rabbits, but it's candy version has prospered, scoring 10% of all the country's Easter-chocolate sales. Somehow the Playboy Bilby doesn't seem as cute an idea.
