Subject: Hard Rock Live rerun

Hey fellow Fivers!  I was wondering if anyone knows when the Hard Rock Live 
show with Ben Folds Five and Squeeze was going to be on, I know it's this 
Saturday but I don't know what time though, if you could help me that would 
be cool. I'm sick this week and I have been home, on Monday I was listened to 
the radio all day and I heard Army at least 5 or 6 times on one station, I 
saw the video once, then I heard Brick. It cheered me up a lot. The boys have 
been on the radio a lot up here, I like that! : ) Then one day I was just 
flipping through an old Rolling Stone magazine I had and I came across an 
article about them! There was a great picture of them so I tore it out and 
hung it up on my wall. Well, enough of my rambling, I have a fever so I'm 
acting a little strange, sorry 'bout that : )

Subject: Chicago show

Question: If they cancelled the Seattle show on the 17th because of
Frally's impending due date, doesn't it seem odd that they would do a show
in Chicago the next night? Should we get excited about the show or just
expect it to be cancelled? Any ideas Frank?

Subject: BFF crossword

I have only two days to find out the answer to these questions:1.What is the 
name of Geoff Harvey's show in Oz? 2.What supposedly replaced the Hardback 
Cafe?
  I have no idea since I'm not Australian, or from NC.  If you are, or you 
just happen to know, pleeeeeeeeeezzzz e-mail me privately, before 5/21.  
Thank you.

BTW.  Anybody going to the St. Louis show?

Subject: hidden tracks

In Response to stephen jackson,

there actually is a different type of secret track than the normal "after the 
last song" type. For instance, on Blind Melon's "Soup" (which is a very 
underated album) the secret track is BEFORE the first track.  You have to 
start the first track and rewind to find it.  I'm not sure if the more recent 
versions of the album have it but mine does.  Anyhow,  this has nothing to do 
w/ Ben Folds Five so i'll hush my mouth now.  Wait a minute no i 
won't...speaking of secret tracks this is something most of my friends didn't 
know until i told them.  If  you listen to BNL, on "rock spectacle" after the 
last song, he explains the "old lady" reference he makes in "if i had 
$1,000,000". and they sing some little short impromtu rap thing that's really 
cool. just thought i'd share.

Subject: Ben Folds Five Sheet music

Ok no cut and paste with this post, Actually I was curious if anyone could 
help me find a website with some Ben Folds five Sheet music on it. I would 
greatly appreciate it. Email me personally or send it to the list if you 
think that it would be cool for everyone to have it post it to the list. 

Thankyou or no thankyou to whatever you decide.  But I would appriciate it if 
I could find a site, With anything on it.
