Here's a URL for more info on the Dec. 30 TMBG concert in Philadelphia...
http://www.ticketmaster.com:80/events/NR/PA/NONSPORTS/CONCERTS/THEY_MIGHT_BE
_GIANTS/
It's at the Trocadero, 10th and Arch Streets, which is just on the edge of
Center City. I've never been to that exact intersection, but Center City is
a pretty safe place. I mean, you're probably going to get panhandled, but
so what.

Subject: VIDEO COMPILATION
Hey everyone. Peter from Sydney here. I have great news. I actually found a
copy of Video Compilation! I have been a fan for about two years now but I
have never seen a single TMBG clip. Finally I found one in a specialty
record store in Sydney. 22 minutes of fun! I would like someone to tell me
if there is any significance to the choreography of the 2 Johns (i.e. in
Ana Ng and Puppet Head)? And also describe to me the other TMBG clips not
contained in the video.
Thanking you kindly.

The Unofficial page looks pretty good on lynx. Of course, the pix don't come
up, though. Seems normal to me. I can check Air Mosaic for IBOX tomorrow.

And of course Netscape looks fine

My fourth favorite John is myself...thank you
I'd like to say that I'm hopping mad at my friend Chuck...
He has:
1. broken my lava lamp
2. stolen my girlfriend, twice
3. beat up my dog
4. "borrowed" my Giants discs and not returned them
Oh and while you were all mentioning other bands I noticed two things, there
are still a lot of die-hard Pixies fans like myself and that someone
mentioned the Dead Milkmen, personally I've always thought of the Dead
Milkmen as a cross between TMBG and Dead Kennedys
If anyone has any torture suggestions for Chuck, lay 'em on me.
