It also has a pretty good review at the end. It was done by TV Guide, and they actually did an extensive and impressive job. It is by far one of the best interviews/reviews in terms of content _and_ form. They have it listed on the Pollstar page (found by searching for TMBG concerts and then following the info link), which you can find through tmbg.org. They also have some sound clips from an interview with Flans. Although this one doesn't have an intelligent interviewer, Flans says some interesting stuff. Check it out, check it totally out.

They are scheduled to play on Sunday, April 27 at 4:15PM at Slayter Center, an outdoor theater. The bad news is that the show "is open to Purdue students only." The good news is that, since there are no tickets required (as far as I know); the show is basically on a big, easily accessible hill; and Grand Prix is basically pandemonium anyway, there is no conceivable way of enforcing this even if one wanted to try. So, while I can't promise that anyone will get to see the show, you may find it a worthwhile risk. m@t ------------------------------ Message-ID: <3352BFCE.8DD@geocities.com> Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 16:37:50 -0700 From: vlad_drakul Subject: TMBG: Hooray!

Uhhhhh.....I'm tired of this. Ska DOES NOT need horns!!!! It's just that almost every true ska band uses them. Try finding the first Toasters EP. No one doubts that the Toasters are a true ska band (tell me otherwise and I'll laugh). And on the first Toasters EP, there are NO HORNS!! That's right. The Toasters, one of the godfathers of the third wave, did not use horns all the time. Admittedly, ska is basically synonomous with horns. You just don't NEED them.... > I fear the fad trendyness of ska. I blame the pop takeover of No Clout. Um....exactly. Ska has indeed become trendy. Admittedly, I've only been skankin' for about six years, but I most certainly have a head start on most alternateens out there (just the ones who skank, folks...don't crucify me). Don't worry...after they're all done using it in Sprite commercials and car commercials and as background music on the Real World, and everyone moves on....we'll see who the true fans are. See ya.
