I’ve done a few hours of work on the guitar archive and it’s looking
cool. I still have a few more things I want to do and tabs to add, but
it’s operational now.
The url has changed to:

-Pat. Says: Deana is still busy. I think it was almost ready when she
got snowed under at work. As soon as she tells me it’s
ready to go, I’ll tell you all.

Summerfest?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was just wondering if anyone knows or has heard that the Femmes are
playing at Summerfest in Milwaukee. They’re not listed but all the
bands aren’t officially announced yet.

Not to burst your bubble, but I was at a show in Urbana, IL on April
20th and they did the same exact thing. Obviously, they played the
University of Illinois fight song instead. Although, I did think it
was pretty cool. I don’t know if this is a new thing or what. After
they were done Gordon said “Actually, that turned out pretty good.
I’m surprised.” I think the crowd got a kick out of that, also. I
was pretty impressed, anyway.

RE: Freak Magnet on Ebay
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hello Everyone!!!!
In regard to Freak Magnet on e-bay for an obscene amount of money.
Don’t pay that!! I know that “we” all want that C.D., but, look
elsewhere for it. I just received my copy in the mail today. With
shipping I paid a total of $9.95. I had considered paying the e-bay
prices. I just thought that the amount of money was a bit ridiculous.
So, I searched the Internet until I found it for a reasonable amount. I
was certainly a bit skeptical when I found it for $6.99. But, many
e-mails later I decided that it wasn’t a scam. I don’t know if the
place I got it has more in stock or what. They deal in used C.d.’s.
Which I should add that the Freak Magnet I just received is in mint
condition!!!!!
Soooooooo, this is where ya look!!!!!!

They have a search engine to make it easy on us to find what we want.
Check it out and hopefully you will all get lucky, too:)

Peace everyone!!

RE: Used to Be Single on Ebay

There was one other thing that I wanted to tell you. In regard to Nick
coming out of the closet on the “Used to Be” ebay purchase:) According
to the Ebay User Agreement number 7……….No price manipulation:
Seller may not manipulate the price of their item, either by using a
shill(a secondary account or third party) or by bidding themselves.
Obviously, Nick would be considered a secondary account. I don’t blame
Nick at all for breaking the rules, but, just so you know, the
agreement that he had with the seller is against the rules of ebay.
Just wanted to answer that question for ya. Talk to ya later.

Peace-

<< -Pat. Says: Let me get this straight..the auction is bogus because
you and the seller have already worked out some sort of
secret deal. Do you do this often? Isn’t that against
Ebay rules? >>

Yup.

But the interesting thing is how does the seller get reimbursed for
the auction fees? claim the buyer defaulted and therefore pay NO fees?
Nice scam if you’re the scam type. Remind me not to engage in ebay with
either of them

RE: Used to Be Single on Ebay

I am really disappointed to hear that someone is rigging ebay. I count
on the auction service being reliable so that I can honestly get the
femmes stuff I want for the best price. When a person riggs it I
consider it a direct attack on the bank accounts of all ebay users.
That is an attack on property and as a student of philosophy I take that
very seriously (refer to Locke, 2nd Treatise). Our country was founded
on the belief that life, liberty, and property are all of equal
importance. So, Nick Parr when you rig the auction you are messing with
something as important as life and liberty. Please do not do it again.
I must admit I was tempted to use your post and turn you in to ebay.com,
but did not and won’t — just don’t do it again.

P.S. Are you aware that those bids are legally binding and in fact the
seller could obligate you to pay that $140.00? I hope he isn’t
scamming you.
