"You should have seen the ladies' bathroom. Putting on lipstick next to Milla Jovovich works for me. It was like standing on a fashion set of all your favorite models. There were two levels of women: those that were seven feet tall and the rest of us. But I tell you, the taller lovelies have immense feet. It made me feel much better about my height. As much as I would love to be tall and gorgeous, I don't want to have huge feet." Ms. Phair, who was making as appearance at The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute's Rock Style exhibit (i kid you not) as the Calvin Klein spokesperson, was found throughout the evening at the Levi's sponsored table with Charlize Theron, when, of course, not hanging out with Milla in the facilities...other notables at the event were Puff Daddy who was said to be wearing a white jacket so large he was dubbed 'Sta-Puff' and his ever present lovely Jennifer Lopez looking for all intent and purpose much like a snack food... >I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the last issue of Support System. >It was a welcome shift from the >sniping immaturity of days past. ...who are you and isn't Martha Stewart anxious when you're away? one more time boys and girls, you are most certainly entitled to your opinions and the expression thereof of same, but is not the liz phair of your affection noted for being just a tad bit irreverent, unassuming and on occasion somewhat left of mature? i don't know about ya'll, but i like to mingle with folk of flair just as much as i enjoy songs by the flairish types...not much for the mariah carey clone crowd...so, if you want to refer to me as an immature ass, then by all means do so, but do not be at all surprised when you are asked just what in hell your prim and proper self is doing listening to recordings by 'the blow-job queen'...yano, self-importance has it's place, unfortunately it doesn't usually stay there. and mr. edwards...i eagerly await my copy of this years 'death to disco' and also the answer to my earlier asked question, does membership in the track club necessitate actual running or can it be substituted for with rousing enthusiasm? mild and unspiced MrE - -- "He hates these cans!" - Navin R.

Does this not strike anyone else as bizarre? After all, this is not Billboard (sales) or Tiger Beat (do they still make that mag?) Another thing that occurs to me having been a musician all of my life is that Liz almost never writes with anyone. You would think that in working out her songs she would have come across more collaborators. Of course, there are plenty of solo writers--so why do I wonder about Liz? Finally, a word about acquired tastes. I grew up on Yes and Genesis--partly because I would play their music while doing my homework because I didn't like it very much so it didn't distract me. Eventually, I wasn't doing my homework and just listening. As an adult, it's hard to decide what you're going to invest your time in the hopes that you'll eventually like it. Delayed gratification is getting harder and harder to justify, even when you know it reaps the richest rewards. Should I start playing Madame Butterfly in the car? (I'm pretty sure that's an opera...) __________________________________________ NetZero - Defenders of the Free World Get your FREE Internet Access and Email at http://www.netzero.net/download/index.html ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 2 Jan 2000 13:00:57 EST From: MangoHula@aol.com Subject: katie and brian!!!!

All sins of the past century shall be vanquished! Hopefully another post will occur before the soon-to-be-changed entitled "An Evening With" album is released. Liz Fest (no more "PH" phoenetics - that's a good one) 2000 WILL happen. In Chicago. Someone (not moi) WILL take charge and get things rolling. If Liz is touring, the inevitable Chicago venue should be used as a "stepping stone." Hope everyone on the list here is still alive after the weekend. I know I barely came out of it breathing. Have a good week. TMK NP: Jimi, "Fillmore East Live" After 30 years, there still has been no finer live (guitar) show than this. (Well, Liz playing "Jealousy" at the 1999 Cinco de Mayo show - correct me if I'm wrong, please - came close) P.S. C. King, please put in your $.02 on this. I appreciate musicians' opinions. Plus, you owe me one after I warned you about the infamous "sister post." Look around Do you see anyone for themselves Like you see yourself? So why do you still feel so all alone? - -ECP _______________________________________________________ Visit Excite Shopping at http://shopping.excite.com The fastest way to find your Holiday gift this season ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V2 #385 ************************************
