My first Früvous show, concert, and folk fest! I don't think I could have a better combination...Ok the songlist Mainstage Thursday YWGTTM MBLABOA Saucep'n IWHO Hearing Voices Workshop saturday morning (with Karen Savoca, Tom Wilson and Church Street) Early Morning Rain Gulf War Song and one other I can't remember Actual Concert BJ Horseshoes Lazy Boy Pisco Bandito Boo Time Michigan Milita Johnny Saucep'n King of Spain\GE&H Love Poition # 9 "This Hour Has 90 minutes" workshop with Christein Lavin, Dar Williams and Al Simmons Kids Song Minnie the Moocher I Love My Boss Anyway on with the review. Thursday, sat in line for 2.75 hours and lamented that I didn't bring my book (ok I'll skip the boring stuff)...well because FDC said Früvous would be playing *Friday* and Saturday I wasn't really expecting them...but after Tri- Contental, Wes Borg (one of the Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie) annouced that the next tweener would be a band that played EFMF 7 years ago, were from Toronto, blew him away, and a bunch of other adjectived, adverbed, verbs finishing with something like Monster Truck mashing...I was sitting just in the position so I couldn't see that side stage. Then I heard Mox...and I was already on my feet cheering, then I heard Ji thanking Wes for the intro and followed up with the inevitable Calgary references. The intro to the song was sprinked with environmental references that had me thinking Marion, but it was YWGTTM - typically wonderful a cappella that we always expect from the lads. Then Dervish played and Lennie Gallant. Now it was dark enough for the screen to be lit up and I saw the frülads behind Wes. I started yelling again...Murray made a comment that the people to stage left would think that Dave looked like a speaker with a head. It was true...then we were treated to MBLABOA - My absolute *fav*! I yelled Authors as soon as I heard the opening solo, and as usual there was the "My baby's hooked on my crucifixion" line and "Who needs a grave?" and there was something else that murray said instead of "my baby's buying brand new novels" that I didn't quite catch. Saucep'n - Started with an intro about how Moxy Früvous is actually paid by the Ontario government to write songs against them and this somehow helps the government. This lead to a comment that the following song was for the 1998 *something* Eat campaign...the crowd just loved it, everyone was literally ROTGLTHO... IWHO - a basic intro that its a song of the album Thornhill..beautifullly sung as per usual...the acoustic guitar version only. Afterwards Jian introduced the next act by saying that he consumated his engagement to one of the members of the Culteral Heritiage choir, and he came out out help sing one song...it was just amazing...as you can proabably tell I don't have the vocabualry to properly do it justice. Friday Night This was the night I was expecting to see Früvous..oh well :) I sat in line for 3.5 hours today and lamented that I did bring my book as it rained and rained. Anyway I went to the merch tent right away and rebought my copy of Thornhill after a bad accident with bug spray and my copy of C and then who saw me in line but Lisa (Carpenter), so after I did my happy dance at the back of the tent where no one could see me I met up with her and we went up to my tarp, a bit higher than the day before but with a full view of the stage and well, we survived the rain and kept and ear and an eye out for Früvous, as well as Erilee. However no sign of either, but I had fun anyway. Saturday YAY the big day! Woke up at 6:30 to try to get a good place on the hill, however I didn't get there till 8:10 and well, I was even higher up than before. :P, but at least I got to the workshop stage in time to get about 3 rows back...I could have got farther up, but I didn't want to...seriously. Anyway I saw Lisa again and a little while later Erilee and we all sat in Frühead harmony *grinz* The workshop was really quite good, I've never heard EMR and loved it. You had to wonder if they were taking workshop names more seriously for they didn't bring any intstuments besides shakers, tambourine, and acoustic guitar...then they all gathered close at the microphones and did an intro that sadly this song is still all too relavant today, then they started into Gulf War Song...oh just so beautfiful, the entire ski hill was silent as they sung...oh I can live that moment in my mind forever. I can't remember much else from the workshop except Tom Wilson mentioning that his song will be used for a Hundai commercial Mike jumped up, it was so cute! And at the finale there was Mike again jumping up on the chair, he has so much energy for that early in the morning...well 12:30 in the afternoon actually. The actual concert...Lisa, Eri and I were kinda afraid that we wouldn't get a good place, Eri really wanted a seat stage murray, I really didn't care cause I was just so estacic to be there! We ended up between stage Dave and Mike which wasn't such a bad place to be. Murray did the intro although he messed up the second time, here's the final one paraphrase, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I introduce to you a band that has at least on member that is a robot, Moxy Früvous" Ok onto the songs.. BJ - something about "A mental case, the only robot here is the one playing bass" Horseshoes - "This song is such an epic that its spread over two albums" and then some banter about napster and that if you're going to download the song its best to get the live version. Ok, I've typed enough for today, I'll type the rest tomorrow, I still have a couple hundred e-mails to get through.

"Pinch Me"- those canadian barenaked ladies are back with another light-hearted catchy tune. "The Way I Am"- eminem has the bitter thing down to a rap. :-) i think he has issues with his mum. "You're An Ocean"- fastball knows infectious pop, that's for sure. this fine ditty even has piano licks from a 80's TV sitcom theme. "The Lost Art of Keeping A Secret"- The second Queens of the Stone Age to grace our lovely charts with this single... sounding like some kinda cool dark rock. well, there you go... a whoppin 5 new songs. they're all damn impressive too. so go vote on your faves! - ------------------------------------ Reader's Choice http://www.bumrock.com/rc/ - ------------------------------------ 1) Tonight And The Rest Of My Life- Nina Gordon (49.84) 2) Out Of This World- The Cure (41.29) 3) Radio Whore- Orbit (39.54) 4) Barrytown- Ben Folds Five (39.23) 5) Mad Dog- Elastica (38.02) 6) Bohemian Like You- Dandy Warhols (34.81) 7) Goodnight Moon- Shivaree (33.93) 8) Eliot- Sarah Slean (33.36) 9) Mayan Pilot- Splashdown (32.67) 10) Happier- Guster (29.5) Screaming "Let Me In!" - ---------------------- Sparks Are Gonna Fly- Catherine Wheel Stellar- Incubus Never Gonna Come Back Down- BT How Soon Is Now- Snake River Conspiracy Basement Apartment- Sarah Harmer Soul Catcher- The The Now That I Am Blind- Deathray Dinosaurs Will Die- NOFX Touch & Go- Vibrolush Idol- Amanda Ghost Climbing The Walls- Stir The First- Tegan & Sara Pinch Me- Barenaked Ladies The Way I Am- Eminem You're An Ocean- Fastball The Lost Art of Keeping A Secret- Queens of the Stone Age Change- Deftones Teenage Dirtbag- Wheatus Godless- Dandy Warhols Warm Machine- Bush *** AND DON'T FORGET TO VOTE FOR NEXT WEEK'S SONGS!!! *** http://www.bumrock.com/rc/vote.html keep on rockin!!! - -dan goodspeed Editor of BUMrock editor@bumrock.com http://www.bumrock.com/ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 11:40:07 -0700 From: Maggie Subject: Re: Grape Jam review *waves* i did! :D ~M~ "Fr˙fffffc - ----------------------------------------------------------- Got questions?
