Being that I'm here in Alabama I won't get to see her there, but that has to be some kind of special evening, her being an alumnus and all. If you like Jewel and live in range of the place, you should think of attending... - -- Doug "Instructions are for people who don't know what they are doing" - Bob the Builder ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2005 19:12:32 -0400 From: meredith Subject: Re: Spare a thought for Bill and Billi Mazur Hi, Vickie noted: >Our long-time friend Bill Mazur is going though some >very hard times.

I'm guessing that only the ectophiles who attended EctoFestWest have had the opportunity to meet Billi in person ... she is one of the coolest people on the planet, and both she and Bill deserve all the good thoughts we can send their way. =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2005 21:41:51 -0400 From: Michael Curry Subject: Fwd: a decade of elysian fields It seems the Elysian Fields shows next Friday in NYC are going to be extra-special.... >Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2005 15:26:59 -0400 >From: ashersand@aol.com >Subject: a decade of elysian fields > >Dear Friends, >OK this is it.

After filing this report, your reporter promptly killed his television set ! But seriously, in the continuing conversation (and irony) about great and beloved music showing up on television shows of dubious value, one can just see some cat-eye bespecled hipster intern at NBC going "whoa, I just scored some big cred points today....". Hopefully , the allegedly mercenary Ms. Buckley ( Jeff's mom and executrix ) made a little money tonight - - Russ ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V11 #110 ***************************
