He'd play on the space shuttle if he got the chance. He'd play on, sort of, lifeless planets where there was nothing except corroded stone. I prefer to stay home. I just do this stuff occasionally." --1986 "Kimberley would, y’know, if you, if you said, 'We’re gonna do a gig in...on an ice floe somewhere in the Antarctic', sort of, y’know, playing only to an audience of buzzards and penguins, ah, ah, y’know, and, 'you’ll have to play nude during a blizzard', he’d be...he’d be happy, y’know? He’s...he’s persistent. He’s...we’re both persistent, in different ways. I just...I think I need more comfort than him. I’m sort of, lazier, if you like." --1999 ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 00:41:43 -0400 From: "randi..aka..twofangs" Subject: sanfran fegs alert! {no robyn} Hi, A quick note ... Will someone take me to the San Francisco Zoo? I've only been to the zoo in Toronto and they say the SanFran zoo is *the best.* {well, my dad said so ...} I'll be flying in to San Jose in the first week of May I hope ... so sometime in June or July I guess. Just a bug in someone's ear - in case someone is planning an excursion of their own ... maybe you could include me : } Merci!

Of course, that will not get you the Disney-style lemming exibit that Fisherman's Wharf has to offer. Furtunately, the City has much more to offer besides these well known bits... As far as animal prisons go, the SF Zoo is a decent one. Kindly, .chris ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 14:43:28 +0100 From: "Stewart C.

The Largo show is up as mp3s now. They are in a different folder so go here: http://mp3.freediskspace.com/Folders/1889804/ . The password remains "feg". I'll add now that I'm new to this list and will likely lurk most of the time, but I will offer a little humorous Robyn related story. I've seen Robyn nearly every time he's come through the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area for the past 15 years or so. On the last tour with Rew and Keegan this past winter I had purchased my tickets in advance, but wrote down the wrong date of the show in my calendar. So I show up at the Cat's Cradle psyched for the show, but I notice that something just doesn't look right about the crowd. They sure don't look like fegs, but the guy took my ticket at the door. The opening band was just awful so after a few minutes I couldn't stand it anymore and asked the bartender just who was playing tonight? The answer, Vertical Horizon. What about Hitchcock? Oh he played here last night! oh well, next time - -Tucker ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2000 07:12:41 -0700 (PDT) From: Doc Subject: Re: fegmaniax-digest V9 #88 >From: Eb >http://members.aol.com/Songcycler2/MLJC.html Hoookay.

The usual small town conflicts between those who like things just the way they are, those who want desparately to escape, and those with secrets to hide.

A really funny list. I can't quote the full list, but I did count five items from my own collection. Actually, it was *more* than five, because one entry was "Every Oasis Album" and another was Yoko's "Onobox" (which I own most of, on individual discs). The list also included the personally owned REM/Monster, Bob Dylan/Self Portrait and A&M's "If I Were a Carpenter" tribute compilation. (What's so bad about the latter? Actually, I think that's one of the best of the '90s tribute-album crop.) Anyway, it was an amusing, well-informed selection of choices. Oh, and Quail, you'll be relieved to know that no Moody Blues albums made the cut. At least, I don't *think* so.... FYI, the #1 album was the soundtrack to the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" film. Heh. I also remember seeing an Osmonds Christmas album (what, no Kenny Rogers?) and a John Tesh/Yanni collaboration among the top finishers.

(What's so bad about the latter? >Actually, I think that's one of the best of the '90s tribute-album crop.) This album is great! Cracker's "Rainy Days and Mondays" is perfect, and who can resist Shonen Knife doing "Top Of The World"? I alone probably have 30 albums that are worse than this! - -tc np: Buzzcocks "Modern", Monkeywrench "Electric Children", Warren Zevon "Life'll Kill Ya" ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 16:56:18 -0500 From: JH3 Subject: Re: do ya hate Love? >Subject: do ya hate Love? >http://members.aol.com/Songcycler2/MLJC.html So am I the only one on the feglist who's posted a joke to this site since Eb sent us this URL?
