Subject: Re: concert rules
Hi there! Just wanted to put in my 2 cents and a big thanks to Steve for his
concert rules...very funny and really gets across the point!!! Concerts are
supposed to be fun, remember? And no matter what age you are, how much fun
you have depends on you and your ability to deal with the fact that life and
concerts are never perfect! I should also note that I am 24 and a new fan, so
where does this put me? With the old folks crowd or the new fan teeny
boppers. And guess what? My 11 year old little sister who plays the piano
likes BFF AND Hanson, for different reasons. Kind of like I teach Eng. lit
but I still love a cheesy quick read romance. Why must it be all or nothing?
Enjoy a band as long as you can, and who knows, maybe BFF will play arenas,
but maybe 2 years later they will be back in small clubs. Just my thoughts to
add to the debate....

Subject: Piano Music wanted, PLUS: OLD live recordings?.
First: OK, I *KNOW* at least *SOMEONE* on this list bought the japanese import
songbook before it became unavailable. I'm kinda wondering if anyone
would be willing to rattle off some copies of at least a few of the songs
in the book and trade em for some audio bootlegs or something... OR,
even better, if someone has a copy of the book they don't really want
any more, please let me know as I'd be overjoyed to purchase it second-hand.
Second: I was wondering if any live recordings exist of some of the
unreleased tracks or early versions of album songs... specifically, I'm
kinda looking for "Underground" with the disco breakdown bit at the end
before 'Bye-bye!', "Dumped" including the 'You Fucking Whore' line,
"Guilty", "Kalamazoo", "Never Leaving Silver Street", "Rocky" and
"Protection". If anyone's got a live show including any of these, email me
or post... perhaps we can trade or something.
That will be all.
