Deana ddearry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Request Line ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remember to request Sleepwalking on KROQ! KROQ's request line is 1-800-520-1067 -or- Make your requests at http://www.kroq.com Call or email them often, please. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sponge Bob ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ this has probably been talked about already, but has anyone else seen the femmes on nickelodeon singing a spongebob squarepants commercial? its pretty funny, too bad i cant stand that cartoon. :) -shannon Fraggle3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vote & Scottsdale ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi. I would like to add name to the list for the compliation video. My vote goes to "Somethings Wrong" from the album. I figure since it is free on emusic, it may as well be the single. I live in Scottsdale, so I am trying to get info on the cancellation. thanks, chris Lydon69 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stolen CD's, KROQ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I recall a short time ago someone wrote in saying that their cd's were stolen out of their car. Well, lighting can strike twice I quess. I returned from a week in CT back to Boston parking my car on the street outside my apt. When I went out the next day, I saw that my car had been broken into and my portable cd player along with about a dozen cd's were missing. Included in the stolen cd's were "Something's Wrong" (luckily I still have it saved on my PC), "3", and "Rock (import version and also my second favorite femmes album). Why do people insist on taking what's not theirs? When I lived in CT I would just leave the keys in the car, so I guess I learned my lesson- so please everyone make sure you lock your car- it sucks to have your sh*t stolen. I somehow doubt that whoever stole 3 of my femmes albums can appreciate them, but maybe there is a new fan out there now . . . Also I have been making daily requests to kroq.com, I hope everyone else has too, and if there is anyone on the list who does live within listening range to that station, please let everyone know if you hear any femmes songs on the radio, excluding blister of course. matt m.bromley ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HOB Video ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was just surfing the web and I went to bored.com, and saw a link to http://www.hotconcerts.com and they have a video of a Violent Femmes concert on there from the House of Blues on 7/7/2000. But my computer sucks so i can't watch the concert. If anyone does watch it tell me how it is. Mpdrum95 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Distribution ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi i sent some stuff in for the video comp.
