The thing is, as I listen ot it and sorta like it but don't feel overcome by
it, I just dont think that I'll be listening to it in a month or two. Or at

On 2.26.00, the Mouse played the Icehouse in Victoria B.C. It's a little stripclub

Well, I had to sneak out of work at 10 a.m. to go buy the new CD. Luckily,
I made it back without anyone noticing. I had to sit sober, staring at a
computer screen and listen to it at least 5 times all the way through before
my work day ended. Then, I went home and smoked and listened to it.
my 'building nothing out of something' CD has tracing paper on it. and
when i see the CD in stores it has none! oh my lordy! so i was

Well the Seattle show is fast upon us. I'll be going to the show on

downtown though so where is a good place to meet up? Southcenter maybe?
Someone mentioned a burger place in an earlier reply?

i looked it up
a card that says "MODEST HOUSE"

i died laughing and asked the cashier if i could keep it.
she said yes. seems like the major label world might just be stupid enough
to let modest mouse slide.
Hey check out my going to buy the cd story. I went down to happy trails
our local hole in the wall cd store. When LCW came out the guy behind
the counter didn't even know who they were but I bugged them so much that
they have been carrying the cd's lately. Anyhow not only was there a big

one of those things that happens..when something good is spreadand
that is what modest mouse is good. in all meanings of the word.

Hell, yeah! Whoever posted the lyrics to that LFO song knows what's going
