Definitely worth seeing. ...Stu - -- And me I can't remember when A pirate smile hasn't made me cry. - - Sally's Pigeons, Cyndi Lauper - -- Cats aren't clean, they're just covered with cat spit. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Dec 1998 13:38:10 -0500 (EST) From: James McGarry Subject: Re: Humble & Fred Spectacular...

Some of us managed to catch them at the very first NxNE, they were hilarious!! They will make waking up that early fun!

That's too bad, it would have been great to have Emm on a bill that included a band as high profile as the BNL. However, that said, I'll echo comments by others that the lowly Worms may not be as flashy as the BNL, but they're just as great IMO. They're a comedic folk band from Kingston (sigh), and a riot to see live. They got their start on the stage (and on the street) doing comedy skits and doing occasional songs, but started doing the songs full time because they were such a hit. Several albums later they're still not that big unfortunately, but they're still just as funny, and now a lot more polished. I'm probably one of the very few people for whom this lineup change makes it *more* likely I'll go to this show, not less. :-) Steve ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1998 05:00:21 -0500 From: rannie Subject: Re: Humble & Fred Spectacular...

Thereason why BNL was most likely removed from the line up.. is because Steven Page and his Wife apparently just got a new member added to their family.. I dunno if it is a boy or girl... but she has been expecting... and from what i gathered.... She has delivered the baby recently here is a clip from the treefort mailing list from Tuesday December 15th >It was confirmed on the radio that Carolyn delivered at 9:52 am this >morning and its a bouncing baby boy! No name yet. He weighed 9 lbs 2 ounce >Congratulations to the Page family!!!!! but for any BNL fanatics.. members of BNL will be at the Tamara williamson Xmas show on the 22nd at the rivoli I will be at both the tamara show (she rocks) and the humble and fred show.... The tamara show is supposed feature a bunch of artists actually... including ron sexsmith and a bunch of others (tix at the door only) **************************************************** Rannie Turingan Toronto, Ontario, Canada ICQ:3857207 AIM:ranzTO http://www.geocities.com/WestHollywood/Park/9850/ "We were looking for a word with ambivalence something that suggested both arousal and fear."
