First of all, the lead singer has a terrible voice and second of all, Kurt didn't seem to be having any fun on stage. He was so focused on being a band leader that he lost his sense of enjoyment which he so had with the Big Ego. Personally, I think he should have stuck with Jim. - -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 02 Sep 1998 09:02:51 -0500 From: Chad Maloney Subject: Re: Where have all the Fruheads gone?

If not, then you need to strike some "a"s. Channel 32? I get 9 just fine, and 54 too, and 60 is grainy but watchable, but... 32? Okay, I did *not* watch the same Square One episode five times in a row. However, my sister and I used to watch that show religiously. We used to tape it, so we could watch it again. I memorized more of the songs than I care to admit. Kate Monday was my personal heroine for most of elementary school. I used to get involved in long-winded discussions about whatever that week's Mathnet plot was. I devoted no small effort to cracking the case before they did. I've never watched much TV. (Honestly, ask my parents.) I could easily and cheerfully live with no TV. But I watched darn near every episode of Square One they ever did, very frequently more than once. In my own life, at least, that counts as waaaay too much. :) > > --nicole the "to cogitate and to solve" wonder nerd > > who also used to like 3-2-1-Contact, but not so much after the > > Bloodhound Gang disappeared. > Oddly enough, after Square One died, the fairly autonomous Mathnet > section was moved into 3-2-1 Contact!'s line-up, being the same sort > of show-ending serial that Bloodhound Gang had been years before. Really? I never knew that! Mebbe I should have kept watching 3-2-1-Contact!. - --nicole the " o/~ Contact!

The latest volume of the Live at the World Cafe CDs (volume 7) comes out next week and will include yet another live Fruvous tune: "Jockey Full of Bourbon." I'm not sure when it was recorded...maybe last year's April Fool's Day appearance...but it sounded GREAT from the little snippet they played on the radio. I highly recommend the CD to those who collect every bit of FruMusic they can get their hands on, but also to anyone who wants a nice collection of live music. It also includes a live version of Francis Dunnery's "Sunflowers" and some Dar Williams and Ben Folds Five, among others. Check http://www.xpn.org next week for info on its release date.

This is much less of a problem this time than it was for F&FFC last time, as they will be playing 3 shows that weekend, only of them (I think) being a pro-choice benefit. Playing 3 shows does much more to make everybody happy (as long as at least one of the shows is all ages *hint, hint*), and hopefully avoids this kind of problem.

Hi everybody! I was just reading some posts for the first time in several weeks, and came across some NoHo related posts, which got me to thinking. I would like to go to those shows. And I guess the word on the street is to get tickets now! Well, I can't get tickets until I have a place to hang my hat. I would like some pointers in the direction of Youth Hostels or maybe a hotel with other frupeople in it, if someone would be so kind. What's a girl to do? I suppose I could camp! That would be fun! Anyone know of a campground open in the end of October? If anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Otherwise I'll be throwing a huge costume party with my pal's ska band "What Would Josh Do?" who happen to rock, but Fruvous are better. I would rather see Fruvous. So, please email me if you could help me. Thanks!

I'm in a very similar situation.... I already put my name (and scott's) on the list, but being the anxious and impatiend sort, I'd very much like to know what progress has been made in finding a place to stay. Would one of the people who voulenteered to orginize this please email me with whatever info has been gathered so far (hotels/prices/room sharing/etc.). Thanks!! Ken, looking foward to getting tickets as soon as possible! ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V1 #397 ********************************************
