a.) yeah, yeah, all this talk about more than music fest -- the wilkes-barre fest (http://www.ignostic.com/fest) is only going to be a bazillion times better (band-wise, at least)! just b/c your precious bright eyes won't be tagging along w. the faint doesn't mean that you shouldn't go. let me tell you about a band that will be playing this fest: an albatross and the 1.) bird 2.) sex 3.) cake collective. they murder. i want to say more, i want to gush, but, i can't even come up w. words kind enough to describe these wonderful people and their band. all i can do is tell you to check them out. i believe they will be playing in the cleveland area on saturday. if you can, go go go. b.) jack dean godsey from tennessee, usa, are you still subscribed to this list? er, "jackiebluejackie0"? please mail me, if you are. c.) i have been gone for a week and have not really read through my appallingly large backlog of messages from this list, so, i don't know if this has already been discussed or not and i don't care: why is the cover of the new modest mouse cd so damned ugly? i mean, it is really really awful-looking, in my opinion. i've always really enjoyed their album art, in the past, but, this is so bad that i've flipped the booklet over so the cover is not staring back at me when i look at the cd. bleeehhh. what happened? d.) philip smoker is rock. he opens car doors for ladies. we should all bake pies and send them to him. 1-2-3-4, who's punk, what's the score? --stephanie ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
