Short format, because long format is just _way_ too long. Spot Coffee: Mondo cool place. Great food. I give it 3 stars. I think they should install rocket launchers on the roof so they can take pot shots at the S***bucks across the street. Welcome to a new frufan, Megan (sp?) joined us in our trek to Ft. Erie. Border Crossing: (As best I can remember it ;-) Customs Agent: "Where are you from?" Chrissy: Buffalo Customs Agent: "Where are you headed?" Chrissy: "Friendship Festival" Customs Agent: "Are you carrying any weapons or illegal drugs?" Chrissy: "No." Customs Agent: "Do you know what time it is?" Chrissy: "uhh.... it's... uhh... 4, uh... 4:30..." Customs Agent: "You mean you don't know exactly what time it is?" Amy S: *whisper* "it's 4:43! it's 4:43!!!" Chrissy: "it's 4:43." The customs agent just stares at her. I'm thinking... oh no, we're gonna be pulled over. This was the longest 5 seconds of my life. Customs Agent: "Okay, go ahead." Mount Fujifilm: One of the novelties we saw was a giant inflatable climbing mountain, promoting Fuji film. We watched one guy climb to the top. They wouldn't let him down until the guy screamed the praises of fuji products. Amy S (who is from Rochester) and I (I go to RIT...) were going to shout "Kodak!" Cash Card: They had these nifty little smart cards. You get the card, and you put money on them, and they can be used at the various vendors around the festival. They handle cash conversions (at $1.40, a pretty good exchange rate.) I still have $3.50 CDN left on mine. Oh well. And now, Up With People. (Oh lord, I have but one question... Why?) Poor kids. If ever I have thought about the meaning of "Cruel and Unusual Punishment", I realize now that our (American) forefathers were thinking about this when it was added to the American constitution. Good message, just that these kids were paid a bit too much to be so perky. Tobey: Tobey is da man! we worship the ground Tobey walks on!!! well, sorta :-) After giving Tobey offerings of Pez, I felt saucy and got the jersey. I will wear it with pride :-) I also got to talk to Tobey on the "Other Side"... I remembered that I was legal (ahh, the joy of being 20 in Canada.), and could go into that "other area" where the alcohol was being served. I felt so proud getting carded and passing :-) Roach Motel: Pretty cool show, the Toronto based group dazzled the audience with their Pop/Lyrical Rap mix of music. (I don't know how to describe them!). Pretty decent opener for Früvous. Got the people in the right mood. Set change... and we waited... and waited....... Maybe it's time the guys picked up a second sound guy, huh? It still felt a little long, and it feels like the change keeps taking longer and longer, although I must admit that it was kinda cool to see Cal playing the accordion and the banjo. Früvous Set: after a false-start opening, the guys had the lights dimmed and Murray introduced the band. Lori (sp?) had this little paper-crepe hat that looked like a fish when turned on it's side. It immediately got the name "Pisco". That got my hopes up, but it wasn't played. It was a good frühead showing, with many people, including the reunion of the Trouble Trio, Chrissy, Drea and Fiona. Among others, there were Amy S, Amy B, Dante, Lori, Joe (Tapin), Mike Wood, Michelle, Rosemary, the new Megan, hK, MC... Veronica... Chris (talarin), Maddie (Myla), and their friend Alex... Michelle's Mystery Fruheads, whose names i cannot remember.... three was the guy from the U, registering in at 6' 8"... then two women, one from LA, and the other from France. Probably the people who came the longest distance to see the Friendship Festival. Show notes... (things that I can still remember...) "No Goal!", and Jian's pointing right at me, and then giving me the 'cut it out' look.. or maybe he was just signaling to Cal. Of course there wasn't too much hostility between Buffalonians and Torontonians... (I mean, the two team owners met at the top of the Peace Bridge and raised both teams' flags on the bridge.) What really got me peeved was that Mike won a $25 bet on the Stars. (More about that later.) Cheesemonkey.... Jen, it was a pleasure meeting you, and you saved yourself from becoming lakebait by not wearing your Dallas Stars jersey :-) Monkey! Monkey! This group of people had a big stuffed monkey. (baboon?) Well, it made its way onto the stage. I found out later that the people were really shouting at the stage, and really ticked off a bunch of the people in front of them... (Much like U of R, or Utica shows...) oh well. I guess alcohol + people doesn't mix. Fly: no it wasn't my allergies acting up. I really was crying. Jians' intro to fly. It speaks the truth. After the show: Happy Birthday! Happy birthday wishes were given to Chrissy, Jian, and Murray. Thankfully Jian and Murray showed up after the concert :-) Amy Schrader had a cake made. It said: "Happy Birthday Chrissy Jian Murray", and had a picture of the lads made out of frosting! (Real picture it's cool! I swear! The picture is going to FDC as soon as I have it ready.) I had Amy save me Mikes' head from the cake. "This is Mikes head. Mike cheered for the Stars." *gulp*. And then, Mike's head was gone. Where's Waldo? (er... hK and MC?) well, enough said about that. At least the border-crossing coming back was easy. Probably because it was 3 in the morning. All in all, it was a great concert, and a great experience that I hope we'll repeat next year. So here's to friends and the Friendship Festival :-) - -Paul Mischler ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 05 Jul 1999 03:42:26 GMT From: FruKid Subject: BRB Hey all- i'm going to my granddad's to learn how to sail for a week or so, so I'm not gonna be around very regularly.
