(yes, I despise reserve price auctions, but that's another story and I'm not going to go into it now) am I the only person who thinks that's just a little bit tacky? I bought a shirt there because I liked it and wanted to keep it and wear it and maybe some day run into someone who recognizes it and says "hey, I was there!" it is apparent from the posting of one so quickly on eBay that some people bought them with no intention of keeping them, thinking they could rake in a huge profit by auctioning them. that's one less t-shirt that was available at the concert to be bought by someone who was there (I don't know if they sold out, so that could be a moot point) contrary to popular belief, eBay is *not* the only way to sell things or conduct business, either. what ever happened to "I have this, first person to email me gets it for the $20 I paid for it plus shipping?" or "first reasonable offer gets it?" it's not a collector's item. there are probably well over a thousand of them. wait a few years and maybe they won't be quite as common, or easily accessible. - -- lawrence solomon * http://www.fruhead.com/users/zaph * zaph@fruhead.com "You knew it was true, when I held you, there were no secrets.

I don't really expect anyone else to know either, but I'm kind of hoping that writing about it will help me think of something. I have a friend who I met on-line a few years ago. I met her through her boyfriend who I met on-line as well. We were all on Prodigy together and hung out in a certain bulletin board topic. Her relationship with her boyfriend seems not so wonderful at this point. He is not treating her very well. I am very very worried that it may escalate into real all-out abuse, emotional and physical... something that I know just a little bit too much about. She's doing what I and my mother always seemed to do which was to tell ourselves and others that it wasn't really that bad and to make excuses why we can't get out of the situation even if we really felt we needed to... which we did. Her boyfriend has been a good friend of mine, but this is really scaring me. she has no friends or family who would help her. It occurred to me that since she's starting to really dig Moxy Früvous I could point her towards the Frühead community as a means of both früducation and support. I've directed her towards FHDC because it was all I could think of to do. ARGH! major league stress... I really feel like I NEED to help and I'm not sure if I'm doing the right things. I don't know what the right things are. That's about where it stands right now. Someone just please tell me something. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jan 2000 03:11:33 GMT From: Spin0za1@aol.com Subject: The *exact moment* I remember the exact moment I completely fell in love with Moxy Früvous. I'd loved their music since the second I popped in Bargainville for the first time, but when I really fell for them was a year ago 1/1/99 at my first show when Murray said the words "paradigm shift" and within the first two minutes, it became a running joke. That was when I knew that Moxy Früvous was my band. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2000 22:02:29 -0500 From: chad schrock Subject: Re: There must be a joke I'm missing here [was: Re: Murray Kills SugarFly26@aol.com wrote: > > on this ng work for Cohesive Technology Solutions?

Oh my God. What a kickass show to be defruginized at! (Even if the band *is* wretched.) The extended Marilyn Monroe jam with that nice Danny Burns is one of my all-time Fruvous highlights. - -- Lori Glitter Fairy/Tattooing Fru ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jan 2000 04:14:04 GMT From: "Stephanie Hodges" Subject: Re: theatre was band nerds and now waaay off topic Whoa hey.. You Can't Take It With You was, like, the first cool play I ever saw in my life. And that was last spring.

(It is incredibly hard to do all three!) My highschool didn't have any sort of marching or pep band, which was rather odd, but it made it a lot easier for me to do all the other extra-curricular activities I love... But anyway, now that I'm in college, the cycle continues. I'm in a women's choir, mixed choir, the concert band... I wish I could do more, but I do have to study once in a while. One more thing: I agree that Secret Garden isn't exactly the best of musicals, but it can be a lot worse... for example, my senior year's production of "Godspell". *shudder convulsively* :-) ____________________________________________________________________ |Anitra Setchell | "A friend loves at all times, and | |anitra@wpiguide.net | a brother is born for adversity."| |http://www.wpi.edu/~anitra | Proverbs 17:17 | |___________________________________________________________________| ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jan 2000 04:05:53 GMT From: Frances Meale Subject: FruCon Dates Question: Lee's Palace website states that Fruvous will be playing on the following dates: Feb. 18 & 19, as does their email list. I called ticketmaster and ordered tickets for those two dates, as those are the only two available for sale currently. Jude's itinerary states that they will be playing on the 17th as well, as does fdc. Would someone be so kind as to clarify this? Thank you. Also, is it just me or is airfare to Canada increasing lately? I used to fly to Montreal or Toronto from Boston for about $124-$140 two years ago and for about $220 last year. I checked on Travelocity this morning and the airfare for a weekend in Toronto during February will be $320!!!! If anyone has any additional information, especially regarding airfare, I would be most appreciative!
