 hey kids, just thought i's say hi to y'all.  i have a friend here on my
 radio staff who has some sort of connection to bf5.  i'll let you know if i
 can get anything out of it.  by the way, to the person who found the
 japanese bf5 ad, can you send me a copy or e-mail me the info or something.
 cd collecting is my hobby, although right now i'm overwhelmed by tori amos.

 Subject: Wrong BF5 news is good news?

 Reading the Feb. edition of Indie File, a free Charlotte-based publication,
 and the BF5 are the featured artists in an ad for what's happening at
 Reflections Studios. The ad reads:
         "Ben Folds Five of Chapel Hill recorded songs for two upcoming film
 soundtracks. The film The Truth about Cats and Dogs features a song called
 "The Dumped." And the second song which was a version of "Retarded" is in
 the movie Mr. Wrong and will be released on A&M Records. Both of these songs
 were recorded in Studio C with engineer Tracey Schroeder and mixed on the
 Neve V-III with Flying Faders automation in Studio A. The tracks were
 produced by Ben Folds and the band."
         While completely mixed up, any confirmations -- or should I say
 'truth' -- about The Truth contribution?

 We got what we wanted, folks!  Something to look forward to... a show in
 DC on March 26th.

 Burning question:  On the disk between tracks #2 and #3, there is some
 gibberish about "cut that bitch off" and then there is something that
 resembles either a belch or a low growl.  Which is it, and who did it??

 Subject: BF5 and Geezer Lake

 Just a note:  When Ben Folds Five plays Tremont Music Hall in Charlotte,
 NC on 29 March, they'll be with Geezer Lake, from Greenboro, NC.
 	I need not mention how great BF5 is, but Geezer Lake is amazing
 in their own right.  The show is going to rule.  I encourage anyone
 within driving distance to not miss this one.

 	Note part two:  Eric from Geezer Lake owns D-tox Records, home of
 the first BF5 single.

 hey folks.  My name is Ben.  Nope not Ben Folds. But Ben all the same.  I
 would just like to add that one of the only reasons that I got the cd was
 because it was ben folds five, i thought, whoa!  ben.  it must be cool.  i
 listened to the first couple seconds of the first couple tracks in the
 store, and I was hooked.  Holy Moley.
 I've been telling everyone about them, and everyone who has heard them has
 told me they want the cd.  they were in Minneapolis about a month ago, but I
 heard about the concert the day it was held, and it was sold out besides.
 I was tempted to go to Mr. Wrong just to hear that song.
 This rules.
 ok.
 Ben.
