I also bought Trout Fishing in America, but they're more of a "Kids Corner"-recommended thing. So now Jim Infantino is my new hero, and I'm sure I'll be into Uncle Bonsai when I leave the computer lab and go back to my room to listen to them. Also, the Fruvous pics on flybyday.com are great!

I started naming bands, and when I said früvous, she said they were cool, and that she really liked their music, and I also found out that my friend whom I just met in the beginning of second semester (february), also liked früvous. now, just three days ago the art teacher at my school also liked früvous, and I also lent her the "live noise" cd and she really loved it. on monday I'm going to lend her the "bargainville" cd because she wants to listen to the cd during class ( after the lessons are done) and also because this is a privilege for the students (my friend who also likes früvous is in the art class).

We had a cotnest for best song a year ago and I put in the LN version of Video Barginville. It placed ahead of Backstreet Boys (Backstreet's Back), Spice Girls (Wannabe) and The Beatles (Yesterday) but was still ranked number 53rd on the list. I'm not that shocked at the results considering there is only 80 of us in Jr\Sr high and so the proportion numbers are probably accurate to the rest of the country or even the continent. - -- Cara (Laika) Kozack "It's a reference to a _____ that you've never even heard of by\in a _____ that you probably don't even like."

Well, it appears that Newbury Comics (very popular Boston music store) either likes Fruvous' work or is being paid... or both! Today on the radio I heard a very elaborate Newbury Comics commercial in which Fruvous segments were played and the band's name repeated over and over again in an effort to hype the store and Thornhill. It was great -- the first few strains being played were from "I Will Hold On," but it was only the music... and I was thinking "should I allow myself to think this is a Moxy Fruvous commercial on a mainstream radio station?" Then the lyrics kicked in and I screamed (alone in the car as I was!). I'm really happy for the guys that their genius is finally being picked up on publicly, although it made me sad, too, to think that they might get so popular I won't be able to get tickets anymore... *sigh* Lisa (don't mention Lisa) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Sep 1999 22:08:59 -0400 From: Steph Strenger Subject: Re: früvous appearing in school <> You know.....there is a pic of Jian where he's quoting something and it looks like he's doing a Dr. Evil pose...and I did find that photo editor on my computer....oooo evil idea...Bad Pun!
