RE: Dance Intro ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ USF Show ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If anyone's looking for info on the Nov. 7th show at Univ. of South Florida, well... good luck... I had to spend a lot of time looking, and from what i've found out, the show is at Hillsborough Community College- Dale Mabry Campus, they're playing before the homecoming game (Bullblast, it's called, I believe). No one seems to know when tickets are going to go on sale, but the person I found said they'll probably be around $6 for students. My husband tried to tell me I couldn't go, 'cause I'll be 8 months pregnant... I told him I haven't missed a show in the last 6 years, and what the heck else can I do 8 months pregnant :). So, I'm going :). Anyways, that's all the info I've been able to find. No one seems to know anything (in fact, the guy I talked to yesterday said, "What Homecomnig show?"... typical from USF :), but that's what I've been able to dig up. Heather iceprincs P.S.- The show is free for everyone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hunka Bunka Show ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ok, just wanted to let you know, that according to Ticketmaster the show at Hunka Bunka in Sayerville, NJ is listed as November 15th, not the 9th. It says that doors open at 7pm, tickets are $18.50, and you can call (201) 507-8900 to get them. Don't know which one is right, but just wanted to share what I've found. Beth haziee -Pat. Says: I just checked, and the Hunka Bunka show is no longer listed on Pollstar, so we're going to have to go with the TM date, especially since they're selling the tickets. Thanks, Beth. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Questions for Femmes? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After reading a few recent questions about unrecorded material, and getting inspiration from Valerie and others who talk of never seeing the Femmes. I was just kind of wondering... Are there any questions that you all can think of that you'd like to ask the Femmes? And I'm not talking like "When are you coming to (fill in the blank with your city)"... but questions you'd like to have an answer to, and that i might actually ask (so not like "are you gay?"). because i'm probably going to talk to them after the Milwaukee show Saturday. So if you can think of any, let me know ASAP!!! rob=) coons -Pat. Says: I expect next issue to be chockablock full of suggestions! C'mon, people; think up some good ones. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Dance Intro ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Somebody earlier on commented on making a site with all ( or some I should say ) of Brian's intros to DMFD. I think that's an amazing idea. Well here's my contribution from Aug 27th, 1998 Lansdowne Park,Civic Center, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Its an exact quote. If you haven't been receiving many quotes email me personally and I'll go through my bootleg collection to find you a few more. Nothing like a good reason to listen to the Femmes! - Dance, M.F., Dance!, Brian's intro," Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes; we come from the country that's just south of your border. And although, it may appear that we are neighbours, the two countries are remarkably different. ( Cheers ) Canadians are extremely polite people by comparison with Americans. They're always asking you," Can I do something for you sir. Oh excuse me sir." We live in NY city and if somebody bumps into you in NY city they would never say " Excuse me sir ". Canadians are quite different. So you can image my surprise when I walked into the magazine shop and I asked for a certain magazine and the woman behind the counter said ..." thehappycyclops ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
