Is this the same Opera House that BNL filmed "Brian Wilson" at during the weekend of Frucon I? =) Maybe someone can give us where the con, hotels and concert are, all in relation to one another. > Also, I just got my FruCon tickets in the mail today.

Read, laugh, enjoy First off, thanks to everyone who's already voted for the next round (quite an increase) and your welcome to anyone who's thanked me for "organizing" this, if that's what you want to call it. Below are most of the voters comments. A few of them don't include the other song in the pairing, and the formatting is kinda cheesy.. but properly editing the comments isn't really a priority :) If you've got the time, read these through.. There's some funny stuff. 1. General comments: Oh, the heartbreak of these pairings! It's like March Madness ... in December. wow, man, some really tough choices this time. 2. This is tough!: > Pisco Bandito > xxx Kick in the Ass (wow, this one was tough. love both, live and on cd. > would probably change my mind if you asked me tomorrow, then again the > next day) > Darlington Darling > xxx Half As Much (so close I almost didn't vote. almost) > xxx Gulf War Song (this was brutal. LOVE them both) > Video Bargainville (original version) > xxx Video Disco Bargainville (tough one, both good, but this makes up for > ousting original bargainville) > I've Gotta Get a Message to You > xxx B.J. Don't Cry (very tough match-up, both great. sometimes you have > to fall back on old loves) > The Kids' Song X You Will Go to the Moon Splatter Splatter (Aargh! Hard choice.) Darlington Darling X-Half As Much (scheiss, two of my absolute faves again against one another ... but I guess the further we get themore this will happen) Horseshoes X- The Greatest Man in America (Real toughie for me though Horseshoes willprobably win in blowout, GMA was one of the songs that really turned me on to them) >Video Disco Bargainville >I've Gotta Get a Message to You X these two are actually tied...so flip a coin. >You Will Go to the Moon X >Splatter Splatter these two are actually tied...so flip a coin again. > xxx River Valley (live version is incredible, though I also love DFA, > which perfectly opens Wood. almost didn't vote, I like them both so much > Down From Above I love my boss (with an added vote of No Fair! No Fair!) The Kids' Song. You weren't kidding about 'tears will be shed.' this is hard... X-Horseshoes (Tight match, but this is a classic) The Greatest Man in America X-Gulf War Song (Another tough match, but GWS looks unstoppable) Video Bargainville (original version) Heatseeker Boy Misplaced X (2 in my top five) > Nuits de Rjve X (this one is a sophie's choice sort of pairing) > Stuck in the 90's > xxx Horseshoes (one of my top five, tough I love GMinA as well - they're > such different creatures) > The Greatest Man in America> xxx The Drinking Song (easy choice) > Big Fish X-You Will Go to the Moon (the tightest match this round) Splatter Splatter editor's note: at least no one called me out on pitting "The goal judge" against whatever it lost to. 3. Eww! > Bittersweet (ugh) > xxx Jared (The Wild Boy) X-Pisco Bandito Kick in the Ass (You know, I don't like either of these to be quite honest ... ) Bittersweet Jared (The Wild Boy) (abstain - don't care for either) Lazlo's Career Downsizing... bleh. I vote for Nuits de Reve again. > Heatseeker Boy > xxx Misplaced (neither favorites of mine, but I like both ok enough, I > guess. can I get rid of both and keep Pisco and Get In the Car and Down > From Above and Present Tense Tureen and Kids Song and You Will Go to the > Moon and Greatest Man in America? Can I? Huh?) (The answer, btw, was no) 4. I'd like to make a request...? Lazy boy X On Her Doorstep (Chose this because it doesn't seem to get much concert play. But I do LOVE Lazyboy in concert.) > Love Set Fire > xxx Organ Grinder (so good, would love to hear it live) > > Earthquakes (this song kicks ass-hope we hear it live!) 5. I.. choose.. you. Lazy boy On Her Doorstep X (one of their best) Fly X-The Present Tense Tureen (underdog, but cute) King of Spain X (the song that introduced me to MF... memories...) The Goal Judge > X Fly (tough to call! 2 of the best songs off the best album!) > The Present Tense Tureen (contains the women's mantra - "I thought I'd > better fake just to be polite." ;-) The Greatest Man in America ('cause I've never found a better song to intro my friends to the band) Get in the Car (because in a pinch, I'll take the non-Thornhill track. Ouch. I know.) > Gord's Gold > xxx Spiderman (EASY - always loved Spiderman, saw it live at the Bottom > Line recently - so so great) > xxx King of Spain (no contest) > The Goal Judge > Nuits de Rjve > xxx Stuck in the 90's (wish I weren't so clueless about french, but there > it is. LOVE 90's) > xxx Sad Girl (songs are equally excellent, but the first time I heard Sad > Girl, at Maxwell's in Hoboken before Thornhill came out, is a highlight > concert memory for me) > Get in the Car 6. ..and furthermore... My baby loves a bunch of authors X-Psycho Killer (Can't listen to Head's version anymore) It's Too Cold X-Michigan Militia (don't mess with the MM) Horseshoes X The Greatest Man in America (I love Horseshoes, but this song must get its due. As a liberal American, I'm feeling a bit bruised at the moment.) - -adam ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V5 #6 ******************************************
