Any comments? well, I have to admit I do appreciate a good love song, or a good slow song every now and then, but I don't think that the lads are or ever were confined to one genre of music! I love their slow songs and adore their "clown act" but honestly couldn't chose between the two of them! Let them have a few slow albums, so what? They're just as good as the goofy ones! Let them persist in whatever THEY want, not what someone else does. Remember, they're not some media concoction in it only for the money. If you ask me (and you kinda did) the lads's music is just as good as ever, and we should let them do whatever they want. It's their music. You wouldn't want someone tell YOU how to do YOUR job! :D - -Myla Fantastik "Silver's good and gold is better... but silver compliments your hair better, honey." -momma ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: 14 Sep 1999 00:27:01 GMT From: leaben@aol.comBender (Leah Bender) Subject: Re: shakey thingies >in Missa's two pictures >with Jian, he blinked... twice Steph and I feel Missa's pain... at the OC show, Steph's camera jammed, and then the person who was taking the picture with my camera as a backup didn't push the shutter button correctly and the picture didn't take...

I wasn't sure it would be fun without her as my spirited guide through the Land of Fruvous, but I loved it, thanks to all the warm fuzzies extended to ^kat's^ parents (Senior Fruheads! whose actual names are Jill and Julius).

I wish I had a teacher who's heard of Fruvous. (Mwahahaha...I'm > working on my music teacher...) HMmn. That's funny. I happen to BE a music teacher who's also happened to have heard of Fruvous. (They're those guys from Toronto, Right?) I leave the CDs that I'm "currently" listening to, hanging out outside the CD player in my classroom, and the kids are distracted by them from time to time. The cutest thing, in my opinion, is the littler ones trying to pronouce it. They always start by saying "MOE---exiee" and then others start to yell at other ones and finally I say something along the lines of "Hey, it's Moxy Fruvous, and we can talk about it later. Right now, I want you to..." :) ciao, donna ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 02:12:54 GMT From: SugarFly26@aol.com Subject: teachers, classmates, and fruvous (was shakey thingies) maggie wrote: > the one frühead > teacher at my school grabbed me yesterday and asked "did you see any shows? > are they coming back soon?" Sheesh. I wish I had a teacher who's heard of Fruvous. (Mwahahaha...I'm working on my music teacher...) Wait, there's technically one, my best friend's dad, who's a teacher at our high school, but he only knows them cuz we went to a concert last year. Two of my best friends and I are like the only ones in my (rather small) school of about 360 9-12 who've heard of Fruvous. Wait, not true again. We tell our friends about them all the time, and I even got one girl sorta interested, she wants to borrow LN and Thornhill. And every time I wear my Fruvous shirt (battered after a year of wear and tear, but comfy and one of my favorite shirts, constantly refusing my mother asking to use it as a "rag shirt") I get at least one funny look and "What's your shirt mean?" But then again, my school isn't really the type who'd like Fruvous, so who knows. :) - --------------> Ln, who is quite excited because she just found out she CAN in fact, go see Grease performed live this weekend with two of her best friends who have this strange obsession with musicals. :) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 23:44:17 +0000 From: "ellen p. buckley" Subject: Re: both on and off-topic: the nields Kate Leahy wrote: > From what I can gather, Früvous (along with Dar, Jump Little Children, > and a whole slew of other artists) sang backup on "I Still Believe in > My Friends." that would make sense given the performance of it that we saw at falcon ridge, but if you read the newsletter blurb, she mentioned a different song. anyway, either way it sounds good to me. =) peace, ellen ************************************************ Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say... ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 21:22:01 -0600 From: happygirl@fruhead.com (Dorky Spice) Subject: Re: fox thing In article <7rj65c$2c6$2@vixen.cso.uiuc.edu>, jimcclur@ews.uiuc.edu says... > Well according to FDC, it's not today, it's next Monday.

The answers to these questions may be of interest to those of us finding ourselves without a Madison show to go to, debating whether to spend Sunday night in Milwaukee or go back to Chicago, and with plenty of time *later* on Monday to travel to Minneapolis... k@ - -- The Katrin(tm) (white baked epoxy enamel) Toilet Tissue dispensers are made with 22 gauge steel, which assures security and minimizes vandalism and waste.
