Basically, we gave her that money. I suppose we could contact the Postal Inspectors and report her for mail fraud, if you think we actually have a case and/or you want to be nasty about it. Personally, I gave up a long time ago and, while the total amount she collected is probably substantial (at least from my point of view), have given in to general apathy. *** I think a better idea would be to get together a cool design (maybe use the one already made) and distribute it digitally in a form people could take to their local place-that-can-make-shirts-from-digital-sources, such as Kinko's. Sorry that's the only example I can give, but I only know about that one because I happen to work there. :) Possibly people in an area could get together and go in for a few at once, because the main obstacle is likely to be the setup charge; price-per-shirt is probably fairly reasonable. Please note: I do not speak for Kinko's in any official capacity, nor am I volunteering to run a T-shirt project. (I wish!) I'm just trying to publicize an idea which I haven't seen floated before.

Put down the flamethrower for a minute and listen. No one here is denying you the right to your opinion. Neither do you seek to deny us the rights to ours. (boy, was that convoluted) You might, however, try to show a bit of respect for other people's viewpoints. When list members accuse you of having a closed mind, they have a darned good reason--it certainly looks like you do. They have been rebutting your statements about Fruvous (e.g. "the guitarists aren't as good as Flans") with counterexamples (e.g. Fordy and Dave's displays of guitar prowess), and you have responded each time by either belittling the evidence or declaring it irrelevant. This is not conducive to good debate. The hallmark of an open mind would be to either reweigh the evidence in your own mind or rebut the rebuttals. You have manifestly done neither, preferring instead to whine about how mistreated you are. I mean, jeez, to have torqued off *Chad*, of all people... I've met Chad in real life, and he's the nicest person imaginable. For myself, I'm a huge fan of both TMBG and Fruvous, but Fruvous's live show leaves TMBG's in the dust.

I don't know why I feel like saying this, but I suppose it will illustrate what I feel about pop music verses talent...This is my opinion (and the opinion of a few other people I know) that although Sarah McLaughlin (sp?) can sing well, she can not write all too good songs...While Alanis Morisette can not even sing well (sorry to offend any Alanis fans, but well, I've gotten some people who can sing, with technical ability, to back me up on this), yet both still have this pop feel...not because the music is technically good, but because it has a "pop" feel. The artists come off as popesque (got a better word?) when performing live & in studio...& probably some record company payed stations thousands of dollars to make them big stars (see Tmbg.com)...Pop music is not based on talent, but rather on MONEY, image, MORE MONEY, appeal to the masses, & EVEN MORE MONEY.

No, it betrays the extremely serious tone of the song (set > up by the banjo, stacatto drums and later, the crackly speaking voice). hmmm.... see, there's where I disagree. I think the harmonies are perfect there - Michigan Militia isn't *supposed* to be serious. It's supposed to be a scathing satire about how silly the Michigan Militia is. keep two things in mind when considering their harmonies: 1. they started out completely a capella, for largely the same reason that John Linnell started playing accordion - convenience. As a result, they got very used to including 4 vocal parts in songs (and in most of the a capella ones, Murray is singing a bass line) 2. a lot of a capella groups are large. some have 10 or more people in them. granted, a lot of them are used to simulate percussion and other instruments, but you still get a lot of harmonization. it's really a product of "Hmmm, we've got four people, and one of them isn't doing anything... that's bad."

I have listened to other shows taped by the same people at different venues, and the quality is significantly better. I know the 9:30 club has about the worst sound system imaginable, but what we have to try to do is figure out a way to overcome that this August 28. Unfortunately, I don't have anything with which to tape the show, but I'm sure someone who's going to be there does. Is tape enough? Probably not. What I'd like to see is a good DAT recording (because DAT allows you to adjust the levels while recording, which is necessary at the 9:30 club) to record a show at what seems to be a popular meeting point for east coast TMBG'ers. Or another possibility - and a long shot - no, a *really* long shot - is to get permission to use the sound board feed, and bring some nice equipment without having to smuggle it in. there are so many good bootlegs out there... and I'd like to see a 9:30 club show join their ranks. any takers?

My basic opinion is that Moxy Fruvous are a bunch of undistinguished acoustic-music ponces who write twee lyrics that are heavy with liberal platitudes and agonizing jokes. The response has been "Well, we like that sort of music, and they do it very well, and we think 'I spilled salad dressing on Doris Lessing' is actually quite funny, thanks."

To be honest, I think this is what we should concentrate on. Think about it. Most of the major stations have 1-800 numbers, right (I assume)? As we all know, if the major stations start playing a song on a regular basis, the medium and minor stations are sure to follow so they don't fall behind. It just seems more realistic than calling every rinky-dink station that the big stations don't care about. Again, the 1-800 numbers will let everyone call AS WELL as emailing.

We've heard of several musicians, most obscure, who do read mailing lists (although some of these people may be getting edited transcripts). We've also heard evidence, however, that Linnell absolutely does *not* read this list. If someone could present similar information about Flans, it would be a bit of a blow to Josh's "You can't prove me wrong!" Unless, of course, it was Flans himself who did the presenting. I don't think it's a coincidence that most of the musicians who have been named as reading their mailing lists are small-fan-base types. That sort of exercise is bound to be more palatable if you have 50 devoted listeners who know every note of the music and have made a special effort to be a fan. Suzanne Vega is still a star, but then, you can imagine what her mailing list is like. She seems to attract lits, pseuds, and a few of the genuinely intelligent, so there's unlikely to be much of the "FUK U DUDE" and "SUZANNE VEGA IS THE BEST EVER, EXCEPT FOR FOGHAT" which would make reading a mailing list so trying otherwise.

Errrr, I saw them in concert five years ago, not last month, and the show was not exactly early Genesis or Kool & the Gang, complexity-wise. An accordion, some guitars, a drum kit. No cyclotrons, butter churns, or Charles Babbage computing looms. If they've added a wide array of phunny props since them, more power to them. It did wonders for Alice Cooper. After all, satirical attacks on cheap-'n'-easy targets like militias go down a lot easier if the "satirist" is continually signalling that his intent isn't really serious. M.
