CDRom?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why was Jez writing about a CDRom in his last post? I would be in great
disbelief if some sort of VF program existed, but what else could that
mean. Jez, please explain for us slow, unaware, and easily confused
subscribers.

the contest or it’ll never be released.

Femmes on Compilation Disc
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OK, so I was digging through compilation discs at a used cd store this
weekend, and I came across one that I don’t remember anyone mentioning
on here.
It was a two-disc set from Modern Rock Live, featuring all live studio
performances from their shows from over the years. It looked really
good, and among other things, listed a version of “She Went To Germany”.
Does anybody know anything about this disc and/or this version of the
song? I’m wondering if it was worth the money to pick up the set for
basically this one song….

-Pat. Says: Yes, I forgot a few compilations. There’s this one,
Generation X (which I have), and I Was a Teenage Zombie,
or something like that (it’s a movie soundtrack). I’m sure
there’s even more.
Modern Rock Live was a promo, never available for sale.
Wasn’t it the CD which came free with the purchase of a
Sony Walkman or something? The version of the song is
probably straight off ROCK. Whether or not you want to
buy it depends on how much of a collector you are. It is
also frequently available on ebay.

Cover the Beach Boys
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
does anyone else think that the femmes should cover some beach boys
songs in concert? wouldn’t it be nice (ha, ha) if gordon belted out
california girls or surfin’ USA?

comments please.

-Pat. Says: Have you heard Forbidden yet? It doesn’t actually sound
like the Beach Boys, but it does have a definite summer/
beach feel to it.

Flamingo Baby

You’re a flamingo …. Standing on one leg …..
yeah you’re a flamingo baby….

blow up this weekend.
