this sounds like what my mother tried to tell me about sex. I think I
need this.

As for music content, it appears that the gig Saturday March 20 will be
Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Hal Ketchum, and Kimmie Rhodes at the Texas Union
Ballroom on the UT campus.

Yeah, what's the deal? And how can there be a whole list 
devoted to Twangfest?

Joe and William,

Yes there is an entire other list, a sort of parallel list called
"twangfest."  It's populated by P2ers and devoted to inconsequential
musings, jokes, planning for out-of-town music trips, personal but
good-natured insults, and most anything that would be off-topic here on
P2.  Right now, for instance, there's some soul-searching going on as to
whether "sports" is as admissable a "fluff" topic as food or Foucault.
Just joking, Foucault's definitely out g...

So it's not focussed on Twangfest as such, but started as an outlet for
all the "fluff" and non-music topics and threads that were fun but 
irrelevant here on the P2 mothership.  As I recall, it was originally
called "twangfest" cause it was a place where people could talk about the
intensity of their Twangfest hangovers and other Tfest-related "gossip"
without crowding P2 with this and bugging all the P2ers who probably
weren't interested in it.

The general rule there is "no music," since we try to reserve all that for
P2.

I've lost the subscription address but I'm sure some others have that...

Hey there,

First Joe...

Then Bill...
Yeah, what's the deal? And how can there be a whole list 
devoted to Twangfest?

Here's the deal. Back in the fall, around Twangburg time, a list was
created to handle all of the 'folks going to Tburgh" email and get it off
of Postcard2 (where it was an annoyance to some). Hence, the Twangfest
list. It has also covered such meaningless fluff topics like uses for
Marshmallow Fluff, professional and college sports, everything that has
ever happened to Deb, more about Jerry than you ever wanted to know, what
Nashville women are goddesses and how to stop them.

So basically, its a place to go for nonsense, as well as useful stuff
like 'who is meeting where, when' for various get togethers.

To get on go to...
http://www.nashvegas.com/listserv/

and look for the Fluff logo.

Caution - it tends to explode on Friday afternoons for some reason.

- Forwarded message --
OK, I've created a group for us on the ESPN Web site. It's pretty self
explanatory but the basics are:

Go to the espn web site
Go to the Tournament Challenge
Sign up (for free) by giving them vital information
Join a group, the group being "Twangfest" (no quotes)
The password is "twang" (again no quotes)

So I wasnt that imaginative

Make your entres between March 7 and 11:30 ET on March 11.

Have fun

There is no gambling invovled in this one, but there might (MIGHT) be a
prize of some sort. 

Keep in mind this will involve paying attention to NCAA Hoops during
SXSW. Heh.
