(Of course, this was before I learned how much to > believe anything that band members say.) Well that wasn't exactly a lie. They didn't do Lazy Boy for years after the Bargainville tour, despite constant prodding from everyone. (I think I started prodding on my 3rd show). They used excuses like "we're not good enough singers. That song is just too hard" (Yeah Right!) ;) When they finally brought it back last year I think it was partly just to surprise (and delight) us. (Notice that Fell in Love came back at the same time). However I have a feeling that they may still be self- consious about Lazy Boy, so I want to take this opportunity to say that I think--all bulshit aside--that Lazy Boy sounds great in concert, and that they should have no fear of rotating it in on occasion.

Yes I've heard that version and unfortunately, it's not the same one. I actually have heard the Fruvous version (not by Fruvous though) - on a syndicated radio show called Rick's Cafe (in my opinion one of the best radio shows anywhere) - but I can't remember the artist. :( Thanks though! jordan - -- "A study in the Washington Post says that women have better verbal skills than men.

LoCicero" Subject: Re: Songs never heard wish list You know, reading this thread I am quite surprised at some of the songs you guys have never heard. I feel particularly blessed. My five would be: Morphee Bed and Breakfast Big Fish Jenny Washington (although I heard Photosynthesis at frucon) and Lee That's it. I think those are the only 5 recorded frusongs that I haven't heard live... no wait... Entropy. Still... Wow. On top of that , the only two unrecorded frusongs that I'm aware of (although I know there are many more) that I haven't heard are Harbourmall, and Tory Potion #9. (Ok guys, you know what to do next frucon!) :) A.J. - -- One of life's tragedies: Given her parentage, Canada could have had American know-how, French culture, and British government.

I wore glasses in 4th grade, but I broke them and my mom didn't want to keep buying me glasses if I would keep breaking them. The solution to that problem was to not get new glasses and to not see the eye doctor. Sounds healthy, doesn't it? Forunately I didn't break any teeth... So, neither =) - Chad ------------------------------ Date: 27 Aug 1998 14:16:31 GMT From: Revell Sara E <4ser4@qlink.queensu.ca> Subject: Re: Songs never heard wish list Gruneberg Veronica J <6vjg@qlink.queensu.ca> wrote: : 4) B.J. - my friend B.J. gets really annoyed when you sing this to him!

Eddie From Ohio. They are a really good folk act. Check out http://www.eddiefromohio.com for more information and get their newest double disc live album (the Portable EFO Show) is really good. I missed them when they were in Bloomington before, but if they come out this way again, I'm there. Oh, and there's some web page to vote for one of their songs to be the new state song for Virginia. I don't remember the link though.
