Hi; this is Paul from Da Vinci's Notebook. The website is indeed the best place to find up-to-date info about us (shows, bio, recipes, beauty tips, etc.). You can also e-mail the group at info@davincisnotebook.com. Glad you're interested, at least! We are working on finally getting out of the DC area again soon (including possible jaunts to Calif. & the Northeast). We're also looking into the possibility--no promises here, though--of getting up to FruCon II, if we can "piggyback" it off another gig in the area (or maybe Buffalo, or something remotely on the way). Any and all encouragement, suggestions of places to play, and calls to various venues demanding that they book us are welcomed. On a side note, when I saw the following... >The CD is really >great... blew me away the first time I heard it. ...at first glance, I thought it read "The CD really blew the first time I heard it." Och, my self-esteem! See you soon (we hope), Paul from DVN. P.S. Try to get to the Oct. 15th show at Ludlow's in OH, if at all possible, as they'll be playing with another *great* group (and good friends of ours), Eddie from Ohio. EFO and DVN have formed a Mutual Appreciation Society, so be sure to mention our name, and they'll tell you all about how great we are. - ------------------------------------------------------ "If Karen Carpenter had eaten Mama Cass' ham sandwich, they'd both be alive today." ------------------------------ Date: 4 Oct 1998 22:17:00 GMT From: dalevy@aol.com (DALevy) Subject: Re: Da Vinci's Notebook Hi Paul.

Is that wrong? i have to disagree... i mean, sure i'm a chick but i watched them all weekend and i must say that they're super cool to everyone that tries to talk to them.

That's where I met Jessika, a > long-time Moxy fan, as well as the producer of the Northwestern A > Capella competition. Cool! :) 'ka and I have known each other since about 1994, thanks to a mutual addiction to a cappella, and later found out we were both Fruvous fans. Small World Syndrome strikes again. BTW, the official name of the competition she produces is Northern Harmony, not Northwest, and there's a reason I make the distinction besides being anal retentive and annoying: Northern Harmony and the Harmony Sweepstakes are both a cappella competitions/festivals, with the former based in Canada and the latter in the U.S. The Sweeps are multi-tiered with regionals across the country before the final competition. The regional in the Seattle area is called the Pacific Northwest Regionals (why we don't just _call_ it the Seattle Regionals, I don't know... ). Anyway, it's a totally separate competition, produced by different people... although I might add that the Heebie-Jeebies won both the PNW Sweeps and NoHarm last year.... - - jenn ------------------------------ Date: 4 Oct 1998 23:03:17 GMT From: aleigh992@aol.comNOSPAM (ALeigh992) Subject: Re: Recipe book? >(The cranberry and brie thing might very well been mine - I got it off >of another site, I think, and it's one of the best things I've ever >made - prep time about 3 minutes!) > > What's the recipe?

It's so cool to be >able to >experience a distant performance vicariously through others. You did a >pretty >good job of making me feel like I was there, and I sure wish I was. i have a few minutes so i'm gonna try to review last night's carbondale show... hopefully it won't be quite as long-winded as the last one... As we had planned it, 4 of us would be taking the beautiful trip from Denver to Carbondale... Rachel, Lindsey, Lindsey, and Myself. However, the two lindsey's found out they had stomp tickets or something and well they bailed... suckers. So rachel and i trekked it up to Carbondale. Let me just say that i was reeeeally glad that Moxy Fruvous and all the rest of you fruheads that were there got a taste of Colorado in the fall. The drive along I-70 is one of the most beautiful trips this time of year. They picked the perfect day as well... it was 80 degrees out and sunny the whole way on Saturday driving up there where you could see the multiple colors of all teh aspen trees... and on Sunday when we drove home, it was pure white covered in snow (just to give you a taste of how cool Colorado weather is). They also got a cool glimpse of all the awesome ski resorts here in the heart of the Rocky mountains, not just Vail and Aspen but the real resorts. Anyways, we got to Carbondale and checked into a hotel... we stayed there for a bit and decided we'd better head over to the barn (the venue) and get tickets cuz well... there was nothing else to do in C-dale. So as we're walking out our door, who do we see walking down the hall? Jian. we didn't stop them or anything cuz they looked like they were in a hurry. So we went to dinner and then to the barn... very cool place. It was larger than Swallow Hill but because of the way they'd arranged the seating (cafe style on the floor and then up a few stairs there were just chairs along the walls) it held fewer people. The show was awesome... I snagged a set-list again, but they didn't follow it... here goes: - -Message - -BJ (at this point rachel and i were getting concerned that they were gonna play the same set as last night... which seemed odd... but i wouldn't put it past a band). - -Jockey - -Horze - -Boss - -Spidey Jason, recording the show, got to be an active participant of the "pyrotechnic portion" of the song because of it. :P - - Hold this song is reeeally growing on me... Jian looks like he's gonna cry every time he sings it tho. - -Pisco okay so this has since taken the space of my favorite frusong. :) I hope they play it again tonight - -marion very cool... except that in denver the boxes are PURPLE!!! at this point the setlist has -ash - tureen -sauce listed but they didn't play any of them. :( - -Ging (heh, it has a G). They didn't mention Mile High but who cares... the score as i write this e-mail is currently Broncos 41 - Philly 2. This time i think they said "now the avs call me up" which was a lot easier then the 'lanche - -Green - -Darling wow, i was supa-dupa-alice-cooper psyched to hear that live - -Potion - -Drinking I realize now that i'm going to all these shows for the banter as much as i am for the music :P I also got my indie tape j-card signed (in that tiny itty-bitty white portion on the inside) by all of them. They each commented something to the effect of "wow, never seen one of these out here." and i had to explain how exactly i managed to get a copy of it to each of them... :P After the show we went back to the hotel and our room smelled reeeally skanky so we turned on the fan and opened the door. So we're just sitting there watching SNL (yay! Tony Millionare cartoon with the TMBG cover art) and I look up to see Mike standing right outside our room waving :) Then all the Nields started trekking in but they seemed kinda grumpy... anyways, i'm on my way to tonights show. And since the halloween show is sold out already i guess while i'm out there in MA i'll just have to go to cambridge and see Brian Dewan instead... i think i heard he's playing on halloween. Ah well, guess i'll get my keychain or whatever it is at 300 miles :P take it easy, JOrdaN http://www2.netcom.com/~arnot/joda/bootlegs.html http://members.tripod.com/~tmbgirl/index.html ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
