RE: Yahoo Club RE: Yahoo Club Cameo Spot!! Merchandise?? and Guy Other Bands ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kiss Off ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ hey pat, on the quote of the day it's not: you can always kiss off...... its: you can all just kiss off...... just thought i would clear that up nick parr parr -Pat. Says: Yes! Another subscriber who reads the issues! Nick is this week's Subscriber of the Week! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Portland Show ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A friend and I that are going to the show are making a couple of "Mercy Seat" t-shirts for the show. We try to wear something unique to every show we go to. I think these t-shirts are the furthest we've gone. We'd buy Mercy Seat t-shirts but I haven't found any. LilBoek ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yahoo Club!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hey everybody the New Times Violent Femmes Club is going to have chat sessions everynight at 9:30pm EST. The person running the club had problems with her computer and couldn't come on for awhile but now she is back and hopefully things will pick. Come by for chat! Kathryn Kittricken ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Yahoo Club ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yeah, I am so goddam tired of sitting in the yahoo club chat room and talking to myself. I'm not much company. Plus then I realize when I start talking dirty to myself... cause it's just me in the room... that I'm talking to myself and I might as well just go into a bathroom. So, please, come to the club. Don't be a dildo. -Drewery -Thenewkid ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RE: Yahoo Club ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There are two Violent Femmes clubs on Yahoo!, which is it? Claire the confuzzled Lottelita -Pat. Says: I think she was talking about Drew's, and that's on the links section of this letter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cameo Spot!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was thrilled to spot Gordan Gano's name in the credit's of The Rugrats Movie (I have a four-year-old sister, okay?). Unfortunately, I didn't identify his voice during the song, but I do remember finding something strikingly familiar about a couple of them. The song was called 'This World is Something New to Me', sung by a bunch of newborns in a hospital. Along with Gordan were Lenny Kravitz, Beck, Jakob Dylan, Iggy Pop, and a bunch of others that I didn't catch. I'm going to have to wait until it comes out on video so I can rent it for my sister and find out exactly what GG sang. As a side note, in the most recent episode of Realms of Fantasy magazine is a really cool vampire story told in the first person by a Hollywood personality and vampire. The narrative begins: "My name is Victor DeLorenzo..." I'll let you draw your own conclusions. Later, Jeff Jeffrey_Wilson -Pat. Says: Sorry, Jeff. This was supposed to go in the last issue, but I thought it was the quote you sent and got confused. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Merchandise?? and Guy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I ordered a bunch of VF merchandise off of their official website and I am curious as to how long it takes. I know it says 4-6 weeks, but have any of you had any personal experiences by ordering.. i mean, how long did it take for your stuff to get to you? i know, im too anxious.. ~amber Smashkin PS- GUY HOFFMAN stood for like the WHOLE show in milwaukee on Halloween nite. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Other Bands ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was reading the mail from Nick on A.M. about the KROQ christmas special list of bands thing and i saw Blink 182 on there. I love them. besides the femmes they are probally my favorite band. I was wondering what other bands you guys listen to. I want to enlarge my cd collection but i don't know what to buy. any suggestions? I like femmes kind of music (what ever you want to call it) and I like punk. I like pretty much everything but rap Joel TeamEnos ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
