Actually, I believe it originally derives from the Greek "piskos" (sp?) which was absorbed into Latin at some point. I'll have to look into that to be sure though. ------------------------------ Date: 10 Aug 1998 04:35:01 GMT From: wbsmiles@aol.com (Wbsmiles) Subject: Re: 7/31: I almost forgot my name >Nice to have more TMBG'ers crossing the line and joining >in on our party!!

Vancouver yahoo! Well, It is on Richards Street. Dunno if the owner's name is Richard (doubt it) FYI we Vancouverites generally refer to it as Dick's on Dicks. Don't have much experience with this venue myself but I'll sure be there as this is the only Moxy gig in *years* that I could walk to (OK, so I wouldn't walk but I could). Anyone from Wash. or Oregon planning to road trip? Frucasa -west has some (a little) room. Wish I had time to drive to Alberta and do the whole swing back through to Vanc.

Others have already stated correctly that no they get no royalties from second-hand sales. An issue of practicality versus ideals. Obviously this is a failing of the royalty system and is (or should ) be taken into account in the setting of royalty rates. Taking Colleen's carefully considered stance to it's logical conclusion we shouldn't buy second-hand books, or clothes, or computer software (even though licenses state you may under certain circumstances). From the sublime to the ridiculous: Detroit and/or Oshawa auto-workers derive no benefit from used car sales (far outweighed by environmental issues I know :>)) The answer: I don't know. I like Colleen's stance, particularly with music where so much is gauged by sales figures. - -- Arbie "Brassman" on irc Reply address altered to discourage spammers, sorry for the inconvenience. arbie_fru@bc.sympatico.ca - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ZardSnod wrote in article <1998080905074300.BAA16626@ladder01.news.aol.com>... > Jude (bodaceah) wrote: > > > I > >was wondering if anyone knowsof the legal or profit issues or has any > >opinions > >on buying used cds. > > I'm glad you brought this up, 'cause I'm curious, too.

As Jian put it afterwards.. "It was like, "..refuse yoouu.." PSHHHT " They had to stop for fear of killing the guys. Anyway, it was a good, if short show. My first time seeing Grandpa Fruvous and Minnie the Moocher. And as I Will Hold On has become my fave Fruvous song already (despite the fact i usually prefer the fast ones) the fact that it was the only new song scheduled... well it went like this Jian: This is a short set so we're mostly playing songs from our new live album, but we're going to play one new song (Or words to that effect) Me (crossing my fingers, under my breath) I Will Hold On, I Will Hold On Jian: and it's called I Will Hold On Me: Yes! It's becoming well known, I heard several other than me (and one person rather loudly and off-key although Goddess only knows if i was on key but if I couldn't hear myself few others could) singing it already. Like I said last time.. guys market that song bigtime and it will explode. Other than IWHO, the set was pretty fast and upbeat. BJ, Jockey, bargainville, boss,(when Jian got off some very bump'n'grind moves!) Moon, Minnie (nice rhymes Mike), Hold, then Rain. If they hadn't been delayed 15 mins by a raffle or something onstage we would have gotten more. Anyway, most of us didn't mind the rain, as it was REALLY hot prior to that. People stood around waiting to see if they'd come back, but other than Jian, who again stood around talking for hours (we left before he did and then he stopped to chat when he was walking home past our patio-side table a few blocks from the venue) it didn't happen. So pictures were taken, stamps were gotten, many hugs were given and people eventually went on their merry ways. As I said, Rosemary, Miriam (who was eventually rescued from the bus terminal) Rob, Bill, Catherine, Ingrid, Doug, Sandy, Novac and 3 other people but I'm already running out of names, walked around for a bit and then hit Christina's where we waited ages for food, looked at pictures (those who haven't seen, Rob and Tobey are.. well it's scary) and did some plotting re FruCon2. In summary, it rained but I got to see _some_ Fruvous and hung out majorly with other Fruheads, so I didn't care much. Hanging out with Fruheads is really an addictive thing have you noticed? Especially in large groups. So I'm planning on coming to Iron Horse somehow to see another large group of Fruheads. The Neilds were also awesome at harbourfront. :) Fiona/Nafio (incoherent as usual) - -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum ------------------------------ Date: 10 Aug 1998 06:44:21 GMT From: "Arbie Fru" Subject: Re: I like to go out dancing...
