Yay Streetnix! I need to pick up more of their stuff. A band called the Buccaneers, from Winnipeg, did a KoS cover during the Saskatoon Fringe Festival this year. I gave them five bucks just for the choice of song. :-) - -D. - -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 27 Oct 1998 23:14:40 GMT From: "Nowik, George" Subject: RE: Fruvous covers? > ---------- > From: Marie.Claude@canada.com[SMTP:Marie.Claude@canada.com] > Subject: Re: Fruvous covers? > Marie-Clawed went: > > > The Acafellas, from Ottawa, teased Spiderman and did KoS at the > Int'l Busker > > > Fest last year and I got to be the one to shaky-egg :) That was in > a period > > > of my life when I actually HAD beat. > > hKath was all like: > > Um, as someone who was there when this little thing happened...

Marty wrote > The first line out of Murray's mouth is "In Alberta near the Lake of..." andNo Actually it's not. If you remember the intro the song is about Cottage Country in Ontario, which makes the first words "In Haliburton..." So, I played with MapGuide and found that there's a place near Haliburton called "Lake of Bays" ON. So it goes "In Haliburton near the Lake of Bays" Fiona - -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Oct 1998 00:30:45 GMT From: hugrod@home.com (Hugo Rodrigues) Subject: Re: Lake of what?

Speaking of which, does anyone else miss (in the a capella version) Murray's "Gotta... gotta... gotta get a message to you" in the refrain? He still does it once in a while, but most of the time he just follows the others (words-wise) in a baseline, a bit off-beat from them. I personally miss the first version.

On my list of musical one-two punches, I always thought (okay, actually I've thought for about 8 months, which is as long as I've known both songs) that the apropos followup for the Drinking Song would be Great Big Sea's version of The Night Paddy Murphy Died. Okay, so I'm a very sick puppy. Some people actually like that about me. *g*. - -- Lori "...When I am dreaming, I don't know if I'm truly asleep or if I'm awake And when I get up, I don't know if I'm truly awake, or if I'm still dreaming..." ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V1 #878 ********************************************
