My only question is as follows: is this song on DIAL-A-SONG (original stlye using the phone)? Because I'm all for accepting the possibility that TMBG change the phoneline dialasong let's say once very six months & let's say there are 12 songs every six months, which is how dialasong.com is rationalized (or maybe not, but it's an effort)...Well, I'm really starting to write without a point now, but since they've done this (instead of maybe posting an unreleased FS song), I say we get back by giving away free copies of the complete FS sessions (just kidding, but I am upset that they put up SWAHD(BTS Version)...) My only other thought was the fact that they claimed "Dialasong.com songs will have bass" & they really liked the bass in SWAHD (BTS Version)...although, it's no excuse, it's a rational... jason "El Oso hits the stores Sept. 29" glastetter Surprisingly we got electricity, & the next day we got conected to the web http://www.poingly.com because some music sucks more than others... ------------------------------ Message-ID: Date: Thu, 17 Sep 1998 20:24:19 -0400 (EDT) From: Lawrence P Solomon Subject: Re: TMBG: time! is marching on! and time! is still marching on!

I can't fit the fucking "y" on the end of eternity because webtv sucks. Anyways..... I'm not sure if I told you all about this girl on my bus. One day I was sittin' there minding my own bi'ness, when she turns around and says "please pass the milk, please". Now, I don't know where she heard this from but, for some reason or another, I was mad at her. Real ending (Yes, I know this was done by Flansy in the newsletter, so back off): I started talking to her when we got to her house (she lived right by me) and her cats came out the door. I grabbed them and ran. I freed them into the wild. You people don't know. She would torture these cats. Like stick them in the freezer (sniff), and throw them in the pool (sniffely sniff). Alternate ending: I grabbed her head (not her maiden head, you Shakespearian perverts) and broke her neck. Then, I shot every one on the bus and ran out just before it burst into flames.

Flans bounced around a lot. He started at Antioch College in Ohio (I would have posted earlier, but it took a while for the name to come to me :) and I believe the song Out of Jail had its origins there. (Antioch is rather close to Xenia, the only town in the U.S. that begins with X) 'origins' as in idea... I don't think he wrote it much before 1994, but something from his college years might have influenced it. he also spent a semester at George Washington University, which he mentioned at one of the few D.C. shows *not* at the 9:30 club... (10/18/94 Lisner Auditorium, GWU) And finished up getting a degree in printmaking from the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. (an "art school") Linnell spent about a year at UMass-Amherst, but when the rest of the Mundanes moved to Providence, he followed and dropped out of school. I believe he was planning on studying music. that's everything I know about TMBG's education... anyone else have anything to provide?

Flans went to Antioch college in Yellow Spings, Ohio for a couple semesters. Its pretty much a hippie Liberal arts school. I wanted to go there but I could not afford it. I think he references it in the song Out of Jail..."Long before the screendoor slammed she was out of Xenia. A stranger could have loved that town, but she had to leave" (Xenia is a town close to Antioch) You might remember Antioch college from the news about 4 yrs ago. They passed a campus law that you must have consent for any affectionate or sexual act. For example: to kiss someone you must have permission before you kiss them.

For the past 2 years, around Christmastime, MuchMusic (distributed by EMI / Warner Music Canada) has released compilations entitled "Big Shiny Tunes" (volumes 1 & 2, respectively), each of which has sold several million copies and stayed on the top-10 walls of most major record chains for an unusually high number of months. For those unaware, MuchMusic could be referred to as the Canadian equivalent of MTV, although any canuck can tell you that it's unfathomably better than MTV based solely on the fact that they *actually play music videos* (often all day). The previous two Big Shiny Tunes compilations consisted of alternative/powerpop hits from those 2 respective years, chosen by MuchMusic staff... this year, however, we (the public) have been given the chance to vote on which 3 tunes each of us would love to have included. Although unwritten, there's a general rule that any (or at least, most) of the songs included must be; a) a single released this year, and b) have an accompanying video which MuchMusic can play to promote the compilation. i.e., Doctor Worm. Now, let me clarify something... there are probably several of you who would strongly object to seeing a TMBG song included on such a mainstream compilation. Chances are that even if Doctor Worm does have the highest vote- tally, it still might not be included. Note the disclaimer: EMI Music Canada reserves the right to final selection (for example, any hiphop that people have been voting for will most certainly not be included, simply because it doesn't fit with the style of the compilation). However, regardless of EMI's opinion of TMBG, a high number of votes for Doctor Worm could at least persuade MuchMusic to stick the video into regular or heavy rotation (which would be perfect timing at this point, as STD was just released up here on Sep. 15th, and TMBG play Toronto on October 6th). As far as I know, TMBG have *never* received any noticeable degree of promotion in Canada, and this could be a fantastic opportunity to stimulate some cross-country TMBG-awareness. If the Time & People online polls are any indication of what this group can do, then we can certainly make THIS happen!!! =) Although the site says that you can only vote once, it doesn't specify whether that means once-per-browser, once-per-ISP-account, or simply one-vote-per- name-entered. Play around with it & vote often if possible! But hurry; voting ends on September 27th!!! The voting page can be accessed through: http://www.levi.com/canada/home.html I still haven't been able to find out whether the voting is open to U.S. residents... seeing as how it only includes text fields for "province" and "postal code", I can imagine that it might be closed to Americans... therefore, if you live in the U.S., it would probably be best to only fill in the text-fields marked "required" (name, email, birthdate, gender), leaving the address fields blank. And another thing... it'd probably look downright suspicious if everyone voted for TMBG plus two obscure artists that the EMI people couldn't possibly have heard of... I've been getting my friends here to pick 2 other random marginally-popular groups whenever voting... i.e. Benfolds5/TMBG/SNZ; Sloan/BNL/TMBG; whatever... try not to always put TMBG in the first slot, either... that'd just look TOO obvious! Incidentally, I'll probably also be posting something similar (but much shorter) to the BF5 list in hopes of getting Song For The Dumped on there... just thought I should mention that to avoid having any crossover fans think "heyyy, he's not doing this for EVERY band he likes, is he?" ;p Cheers, Mike Wood ------------------------------ From: tmbgirl@juno.com Date: Fri, 18 Sep 1998 05:49:15 -0600 Subject: Re: TMBG: Vote for Doctor Worm in the "Big Shiny Tunes 3" poll!

I chose "Birdhouse" because (1) it's a good song and (2) it's packed with such devices. The paper is about 1100 words -- if anyone would like to read/critique this draft, please email me privately at lexfri@brandeis.edu with subject "Birdhouse", and I will be happy to send it your way. Also, at the end of "Birdhouse In Your Soul," Linnel (w/ Flans) sing in an almost-round the chorus as well as the line: "And while you're at it/Leave the night light on inside the birdhouse in your soul." If the canary is singing, and it asks its owner to leave the night light on inside the birdhouse, is the canary saying: Leave ME, the canary, turned on? or I, the canary, need a night light left on for MY security.

My main concern was that perhaps EMI might think that someone had just set up some sort of simple autoresponder hack if they were to suddenly receive hundreds of entries with Doctor Worm all in the first text-field... (although if anyone can set up some sort of undetectable autoresponder, feel free :} ). One wouldn't want to do anything that would cause EMI to simply throw-out all of the Worm votes, however... I've harboured an inherent distrust for EMI ever since their legal action against OLGA (the on-line guitar archive), and I can imagine that they'd react in an unfavorable way to the TMBG-voting if they realized that something was "up".

I brought my friend Bruce, who didn't have his ticket yet. In fact, he hardly knows TMBG. We parked across the street from the theatre at 7:00 and since the box office was still closed, we grabbed a couple of burgers at the Good Times down the street, returning to get in line at 7:30. So we're standing in the box office line waiting for it to open, and they say the show is sold out, but if you want to keep waiting, go ahead. They start re-arranging the seating, and after Mike Shelly is already starting his set, say that they'll sell tickets only for the over-21 crowd. Instantly half of the line disappears. We're old dudes, so we got in during the middle of Mike's set. Since by now we've been standing in line for an hour, and all the good spots are taken, we go up to the balcony and find there are some seats still left! And the Bluebird's so small that we can still see pretty good. We even got drink service up there. Mike Shelly was good--much better than the Reejers at the last TMBG concert in Denver. Is he playing at all the TMBG shows? They last played SLC--maybe that's why he was making all of the Mormon jokes. Or maybe he is The concert was great! I only wish that Mono Puff could have played, too. It's Fun To Steal has slowly been growing on me, and I know that they will _NEVER_ tour in this part of the country. UNFAIR! UNFAIR! Russ P.S.

When I was only a zygote, I still remember the time. When there was nothing to know or to think about Except the sound of my mind And the sound from outside. Sensurround, down at the bottom. Sensible to ear and sternum. And the world first spoke to me in Sensurround. If Mom had known she was expecting, She might have gone to see Jaws Instead of picking the film where the sound effects Came right up through the floor. And I'd be differently formed. Sensurround, down at the bottom. Sensible to ear and sternum. And the world first spoke to me in Sensurround. Accidentally, in a coal mine, it was found When they accidentally dug to far down and found the Sensurround. I still don't know who concieved it Or where they got the idea. But there it was in the aisle by the exit sign: A woofer covered in wood. To shake the room when it should. Sensurround, down at the bottom. Sensible to ear and sternum. Made the fakeness realistic. When the action went ballistic. One degree shy of sadistic. And the world first spoke to me in Sensurround. If I could swim under the water, Without having to breathe. If I could follow the trail to the ocean floor, I think I know what there'd be Down there waiting for me. Sensurround, down at the bottom. Sensible to ear and sternum. Made the fakeness realistic.

LONG, RAMBLING POST AHEAD! PERSONS W/ SHORT ATTENTION SPANS SHOULD SKIP THIS! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!* Hello again, You know, I was going to post about my experience seeing Them @ the Fillmore last week, but that "D-Town Show" post reminds me so much of the very first time I saw Them, that I decided to write about that show, instead... It was a dark and stormy night (well, okay, so it wasn't stormy)...about five years ago, on Dec. 20th. I was a sophmore in high school...wait, that makes it almost six years ago! I'm getting old and senile. sigh. Anyway, They were going to play at Live 105's Green Christmas, a benefit put on by SF's "alternative" station for wildlife conservation (at least it was back then, they may have changed it since). I had begged and whined to my parents, who finally agreed to let me go. My friends Mike and Sam had gotten permission, too, and Sam's mom was driving us the 2 hours to S.F.. We chattered and sang songs off of Lincoln and Flood the whole way there (the only two albums I had at the time). After about an eternity, we got to the club, the name of which I no longer remember, although I suppose I could always get my ticket stub out and look. Nah... There were about 10-12 other bands playing that evening besides TMBG, so we settled down to wait for Their set to come up. The highlight of the evening, for me, was when we discovered that Flans was sitting behind the merch table, signing autographs. The next hour was spent racing excitedly back and forth between our seats and the merch table. I got my ticket stub signed, as well as my concert program, and I ended up buying a shirt w/ the Pokey Little Puppy on the back (I still wear it, old and tired -looking though it may be) and a 7" of "O Tannenbaum". I remember how thrilled I was to be talking with other TMBG fans, who ranged in age from 12 up to their mid-40's. IMHO, Their fans were by far the friendliest people at that show. Finally, it was time for Their set. They exceeded all my expectations, especially with their rendition of WDTSS?, during which Linnell changed some of the lyrics to "Hydrogen, Helium, Nitrogen, and WOOD!". During "Lie Still, Little Bottle", several people in the audience pulled out their own sticks and joined in, and Mike and I got in trouble with the security guards for dancing down the aisles during "Particle Man". They only played for 20-30 minutes, but it remains one of the best live performances I've ever seen. My last TMBG-related experience at that show was catching sight of a little boy, four or five years old and wearing a huge white t-shirt, who was rolling down the club's handicapped-access ramp. When he got to the bottom, I saw Flans on the other side of the ramp, laughing and gesturing for him to do it again. The kid was happy to oblige, and spent the next 10-15 minutes rolling down, then running up and doing it again, with Flans laughing and egging him on. I know the experiences I had aren't the same as tmbgirl's (I'm going to be really embarrassed if I got the wrong person), but that euphoric, giddy feeling that I remember is the same. Sure, I saw them last week, but though I enjoyed the performance, it's not the same as that first show. Makes me kinda nostalgic...meeeeemoriiieees...like the corner(s?) of my miiind...oops. Sorry. :) -foilgirl (Who will now lay on her bed, hugging her ferrets and listening to her old TMBG tapes, at least until the ferrets get tired of it and go running off to try to eat the rubber door stopper. Again. Damn ferrets.) p.s. Thanks to everyone who wrote to welcome me to the list. I actually got messages from people before I got the next digest.
