You don't say how much money, but it doesn't matter.

FM >> perfection is hard to achieve perfectly all the time. they fucking rocked the mics, at least personally for me...especially w/ EMRain. i almost cried as they started GWS i was so excited to finally hear it live. so if Ji couldnt hit every single note, i didnt care b/c they came all the way from toronto on a stinky bus to sing just for me and that's hard and i gave them all major props for just being able to do what they did after almost a full month on the road away from home. lori says that a perfect GWS is hard to come by, but frankly it just adds charm to the performance as far as im concered. im sure that in a studio w/ 27 tracks and full harmonic acoustics or whatever, they *could* do it perfectly a zillion times over. but that's just not as likely after driving cross country for a month and then that day already doing one full set and then a half of another finishing up w/ such a hard a capella piece...oh ok y'all get what im trying to say. - -debs ------------------------------ Date: 25 Jun 1999 03:49:50 GMT From: aleigh992@aol.comBROCCOLI (Aleigh) Subject: Re: huh? > >But don't bookstores HAVE Starbucks in them?

Well, where I work at least, Borders, has its own coffee bar, not affiliated with Starbucks (because it's two stores over). And s/he meant that the bookstore coffee bar had better selections than starbucks.
