RE: Six Degrees Johnny Freak Magnet ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Portland Tix for Sale ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have an extra General Admission (floor) ticket for the Femmes show in Portland. I would rather sell it to a true femmes fan than one of those other fans. No less than $30 will be accepted. If anyone is interested contact: Lilboek ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Haverford ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have seen the light. The show was amazing. The Femmes only had the old school set up. I cried during Color ME Once it was just so beautiful. They played and had fun, doing great solos. It was just amazing...I can't even believe I got in...not having tix when I got there. I bought tix though and it was great. JStamm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: New Year's ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > Lineup is: > Pietasters > Violent Femmes > Squirrel Nut Zippers Whoa!!! The Femmes and the Squirrel Nut Zippers on the same bill?!? Fuck, that should be good. I don't know about $60 though... Nick mypen15 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Quote ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Oh Dear Lord. I'm sure I'm not the only one. It's "Let me go on, Like I (as in the first person) blister in the sun" not "Like a (as in the article). I know this is not your fault Pat, but we gotta have standards. I'm not really mad, Jason weeezer -Pat. Says: Well, Jason, you were the only one, much to my surprise. You are hereby designated "fan of the week". Congrats. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: My So Called Life? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From: huxlee [email protected] Subject: re:femmes on my so called life Date: Wednesday, November 18, 1998 1:17 PM They didn't make an appearance on the show. BITS was played during a scene. Actually to be more correct, it was played while Angela dances around the her bedroom (seems she thought that she was finally over Jordan, her kind of boyfriend.) At least I think that is right...it has been awhile since I have seen that episode. Boy I miss that show... huxlee -Pat. Says: There were three responses to this question, all essentially the same, and so to avoid repition, I am only posting the first. Thanks also to ChewVitC (Kara) and Prpl35 (Jill) for responding. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Six Degrees ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >How about a Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game for the Femmes!!!!!!!! hehe...okay...I'll try. Here goes: The Femmes were mentioned in Reality Bites by Ethan Hawke Ethan Hawke's married to Uma Thurman (does that count) I want to do Uma Thurman. Therefore I am connected to the Femmes in um, 1, 2, 3 MOVES!!! YAY ME!!

I love it. as soon as i heard All I Want it instantly became one of my favorite songs well i thought i just thought i'd let you know i had an idea a few minutes ago and i thought i should share it with you we should put clips from when the femmes were on different TV shows on the video compilation maybe we already are well that's it Joel TeamEnos P.S. Erik and Pat- don't worry i haven't forgoten about you guys i'm trying -Pat. Says: We're putting everything we can find on the compilation. And I can't speak for Erik, but I'm fine with that Joel.
