Haverford? UCF Hunka Bunka RE: Questions RE: Questions QUESTIONS!!!!wahoo! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Madison Show ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ hey all. yeah i'm going to see the acoustic femnmes in milwaukee on saturday! that is going to be very slick! a friend of mine saw them acoustic in madison wisconsin on sunday, and said it was "amazing". he said they started at 745 with no warm up bands, and played until 10, having an intermission and then an encore. supposedly these are really special shows, whoevers going should tape record it!! yeah my friend's mom got him back stage passes and he got his "violent femmes 'GOT MILK' wisconsin tour" t-shirt signed. thats cool thanks -james schrader ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Milwaukee Here I Come!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Today I leave for Milwaukee. Wow I can't believe it! This is going to be the coolest thing that I have done since I was a newly fertilized egg dividing over and over again. I was watching tv the other night and I saw a commercial that gave me another idea for the Femmes costumes. The Lollipop kids from the Wizard of OZ. That would be so cute. As far a question to ask the Femmes goes, ask them how one takes over the world with an Electrolux. (For all of those who haven't seen the Machine video, Gordon spends the video carrying around a vacuum cleaner. It's an Electrolux.) I think we have the same vacuum cleaner somewhere and I wasn't doing anything after I got back so I figured I could take over the world and then the next weekend learn French. Or maybe Italian, I hated French in junior high. AAHHHHHH!!!! Sorry ignore that. I am off. (Off center) Later, Kathryn Kittricken PS I want to thank everyone who has visited my webpage. I already have 90 hits. woo hoo. Keep checking back Deana is sending me some of her photos that she has taken at Femmes concerts and I'll get them up as fast as I can. Original Femmes photos double woo hoo!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Haverford? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Does anyone have any info on the Haverford show? Para9569 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UCF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I just wanted to let everyone know that I got my ticket to the Violent Femmes concert in Orlando at the University Of Central Florida. I can't wait for November 11th! Michelle mdelato ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hunka Bunka ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i just called hunka bunka and hey said that the date for November the 9th has been changed to the 15th. i didn't ask why, he seemed like he was in a hurry. but nevertheless, he did say that if tickets were already purchased for the 9th that they will be accepted. arrrggg. i hate when this happens too. : oh well, i guess its better than having it cancelled. ~shannon Fraggle3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Questions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >Are there any questions that you all can think of that you'd like to >ask the Femmes? why do you guys make music??? that would be my question..and i would not pretty up the question....and then i would ask questions about touring and playing on stage night after night year after year after long year.... Kyle_Souza ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Questions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have one question for the Femmes. Is there one part of the country (Northeast, Southwest, Mid-West etc) or particular city that they especially like playing in? I'm kind of hoping that they say, "Oh yes, definitely Philadelphia." Thanks, Marylee Rubaiyat ps I am STILL waiting for the concert organizing person from Haverford to call me back with info about that show. I'll try the College again, but last time they just gave me this non-responding person's number. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ QUESTIONS!!!!wahoo! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have some questions, I have some questions!!!!!!!! In "Sweet Misery Blues," what is 'drewery'? (can I buy you some drewery or somethin, would you go out with me or somethin, etc.) Any inside updates on shopping for a new record company? Is Hitting the Ground an actual movie that anyone will ever get to see, and will the soundtrack be released? In "Never Tell," is the opening line of 'people standing like trees, without a word," a reference to Dante's INFERNO, or am I way off base to assume that? Okay, you may not want to actually ask the guys my questions, but if you do I would be eternally grateful. -Valerie Valerie.M.Pullin-1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
