Well, as the faithful Talk Soup fans know, John Henson is bolting for bigger and better things at ABC. Up for discussion this week: Has anybody heard who might replace him?? Also of note: It is hot and humid in the midwest. The cubs continue to make me drink way more than I need to. That's it. I am getting drunk in the 90degreePLUS weather watching the cubs pitching staff drive me into lunacy. What a life. And you thought Courtney was the bomb. Oh, and I am still trying to find out if I am in some way related to Warren Buffett. And I am getting very ill watching has-beens continue to look like idiots in those 10-10-### commercials. But hey, they're gettin' paid. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

Tonight, rather than my show, I will be seeing Jude play at the Roxy. yay. the Roxy is a much better venue than the Galaxy, which is where Ginger and I saw him play a few weeks ago. so last night my friend and i plotted out a list of upcoming shows that we want to go to, and it's astounding. Ash, Cibo Matto, Looper, Pavement, Davíd Garza, possibly luscious jackson and beth orton at lillith, of course BFF this thursday and friday, and then there's this 4th of July extravaganza out in Irvine with Sonic Youth, Sleater-Kinney, Guided By Voices, LOOPER, Apples in Stereo and a whooooolllle mess of others. that show makes me feel better about not seeing Luscious Jackson, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and Mix Master Mike for free at the Summer Stage in Central Park the same day. ooh, and have you all heard that they're doing a Bowlie Weekender II? well, Belle & Sebastian aren't playing. but stereolab, yo la tengo and scads of others are. *sigh* thie morning the customer service center in my building called me to let me know i had a package downstairs, and they woke me up. so i grabbed a sip of water before i answered the phone, but managed to spill some on my alarm clock and now it is completely wonky. the auto sleep function is stuck on, so it keeps counting down from 0:59, over and over and over. guess it's time to go to Best Buy. but at least the package was a good one. the new Cibo matto. yay! i love those girls. and little Seannie Lennon and his bass guitar. hmm... it's tuesday. i wonder if they'll ever air the season finale of Buffy. ~Courtney The Sultraness of Swing "Well... maybe she thought they were on a break." - -- ************* ICQ: 24901402 AOL IM: CourtSpork Laugh until you wet yourself; read The Shrubbery. http://www.theshrubbery.prohosting.com Listen to my radio show, "Swing and the Single Girl" every Tuesday night from 12-4am PST live in Real Audio at http://kscr.usc.edu. ************* ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jun 1999 18:06:24 -0400 From: "Leigh 13" Subject: I can feel Phoenix. I just wanted to give a virtual high-five to my bud Stacy for her hands-on story about the Phoenix show. Word up, Stacy. :-) I look forward to seeing everyone again at the east coast shows coming up--Rey, Matty, Katy, Anne, and everyone else. Drop me a line if you'll be in DC, Worcester, Providence, or Central Park! - - Leigh 13 "You don't want to be sleeping with this not-smart-but-attractive bimbo whose job it is to go sleep with rock stars.
