Hi Pat!
Thanks so much for posting the info about my page AND for including it
on the list permanently. I’ve had over a thousand hits already!
All the links are now turned on – check ’em out!
PS – I NEED some more subscriber input. 1000 hits but only 4 emails
(thanks Glenn, John, Patrick, & Pat). Anybody else got any
suggestions?

Rock on,

Hi Femmes fans,

I’d like to invite you all to check out my new Femmes site. The
address is easy to remember: http://www.violentfemmes.net ! It is, as
everyone always says, a work in progress, and not all of the links are
active yet, but there’s a lot of cool stuff on it already: photos,
links, info on side projects… Check it out!

Cape Cod!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cape Cod Music Festival. July 31!!! I’m there!!! Medeski Martin and
Wood (an unbelievable music experience. Their first song lasts 30
minutes but you are too entranced to notice.) Morphine (two string
bass, saxophone and drum, all wrapped up in testosterone!!), and
Violent Femmes(need I say more?). I have definitely died and gone to
heaven.

Re: Venue for Live Shows

<< A question for y”all: Last time the Femmes were in this neck of the
woods on their own (they did a radio station X-mas concert last year,
I’m not counting that) they played La Luna in Portland and the
Paramount in Seattle. Now it’s showing them at the Rose Garden in
Portland?!? I’ve never considered them an amphitheater type band, and
they’ve always just done larger sized clubs. Is this a trend the boys
are taking, or does it mean they’re playing with others who are
amphitheater-type? >>

I will also be going to the Portland show. I have seen the Violent
Femmes play at this ampitheater before (In fact it was the same concert
series only in 93 or 94 (I don’t really remember)) and this venue is
one of the most perfect choices for the Femmes. Black Happy opened up
for them but the crowd wasn’t into them and loudly requested the Femmes.
I believe it was sold out, don’t remember that either, but the venue is
really, really good.
SIDE NOTE: CAKE will be opening for the femmes on September 5th… I
doubt there will be any other bands…

Say man are you down with doing something positive in your community?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As I’m sure some of you probably remember, back in October, when the
Femmes did the Wisconsin tour, a writer for the Milwaukee Journal named
Dave Tianen took a little break from what I’m pretty sure he normally
does with his hands to jack-off in print. I have heard that the
article may have even been the impetus for “Don’t Talk About My Music.”
Sooo… imagine my genuine glee when I heard about the Summerfest date
at the Marcus! I have been trying to find time to search for this
article ever since & I finally found a few minutes so I am posting an
important little snipet here and the guy’s email address. You know –
just for freedom of speech purposes only. Don’t send hate mail to the
guy – I mean he’s obviously got some serious “p” envy issues (if you
know what I mean). Besides, Femmes fans are without a doubt the
smartest fans in the world so get creative and send him your own
personal “thought for the day” or “Dear Dave” note. Mine will be a
reminder to maintain a regular pedicure schedule. It makes it somewhat
less unpleasant when one must devour one’s entire foot!

Wanted: Russian Friend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pat,

I know you’re extremely busy, but, mean person that I am, I’m still
going to ask if you will help me out with something. Starting July 4,
I am going to be in Moscow, Russia for a month doing a language study
program. The organizers of the program keep urging us to have friends
there before we go, but they never give us any advice on how to get
these friends. As you can imagine, the whole thing is really
frustrating. So anyway, *THE POINT*. I was tormenting myself with my
lack of Russian friends earlier when suddenly I thought “Who better
than Femmes fans to look to for friendship in a strange land?” So, as
the closest we come on efnet #violentfemmes to Russia is Finland, I
thought I would ask you if you had any list subscribers from Russia.
So, that’s what I’m asking. I don’t know if you can give me their
emails or if you would give them my email or if it would be better to
just post something to the list. The thing is I am *dying* for some
kind of reply and I’m leaving in a little under 2 weeks. Anyway, I
would really appreciate it if you would help me out in some way. And
remember, we always like to see you in #violentfemmes! 🙂

-Jennifer
