TO REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THIS MAILING LIST
Send an e-mail message to:
armchair-request@maillist.il.fontys.nl
with the word
unsubscribe
in the message body. Please DO NOT POST UNSUBSCRIBE REQUESTS TO THE LIST
ITSELF! If you are having trouble, send mail to
owner-armchair@maillist.il.fontys.nl
and I will try to help you. To change your address, first unsub yourself from
your old address, then subscribe using your new account.
SCHOOL'S OUT FOR {SUMMER | EVER}!!
If the above statement applies to you, be sure to unsubscribe from
the Armchair if you will not have access to your e-mail account over the
summer. Otherwise, your mailbox will fill up and the system administrator
at your school will be one angry dwarf...
Accordingly, very soon I will begin purging the mailing list of any
address that bounces for any reason (e.g., too many hops, mailbox full,
no route to host), not just 'user unknown'. If you find yourself
unsubscribed, this is probably the reason.
THANKS A THOUSAND
With the passage of 1,000 issues of the Armchair I'd like to thank
everyone for their contributions to the success of the list. We have a great
group of fans and the band is very appreciative of your support.

Subject: KISS 108 concert
I've received a bunch of e-mails about sending copies of the Kiss Concert.
Instead of writing everyone back the same thing, here's my reply:
1. I am willing to trade the tape with whoever wants it, if you are willing to
send me a tape. If you're not trading anything, I'd just need money for
postage.
2. The only problem is that I don't know how to make copies of video tapes.
Seriously, just a month ago I figured out to record on the damn vcr!
3. So my question is--how the hell do I dub? Do I need two vcr's hooked up
to each other? Is there a place I can take it to make copies, or what?
so, after i figure that out, i'll make copies for whoever wants it... :)

Subject: KISS CONCERT
I was at the kiss concert. On the whole, It was pretty bad. Absolutely
nothing like the other intimate BFF shows I've been to. Ben was the size of
an ant.
The boys were awesome but played too short of a set. I guess that's what's to
be expected when all the other acts had to perform.
Here's the set list:
Dr. Pyser
Battle
Steven's
Brick
Dwarf
Julianne
Dumped
Im still hoping they'll visit Rhode Island again sometime soon, they've really
been dissing us the last two tours. :(

Subject: how to meet the band
Hi everyone-
I was just wondering if anyone had any tips about how to see the boys
before or after a concert. Are there any regular establishments that
they frequent before a show?
I'm going to the 6/6 show in Saratoga Springs, NY, so if anyone has any
tips or
stories to show about how they met the band, please e-mail me privately
at:
linc1@hotmail.com
Thanks a lot, Amanda Kate

The obvious answer would be Airheads, except that the current single and
video is actually "Dumped", so maybe...
Dumpsters?
Airhead Dumpsters?
Dumpster Airheads?
I'm scratchin' my head over this one.

Subject: SPAC
Alright folks here's the deal, I can't think of any place to get
together at the show, probably because I've never been to SPAC.
BUT...I'll probably be getting there early with my friend, and we could
just meet at his truck. You can't miss it, it's bright red with blue
painting crap on the front. I'll make up a sign too. I'll be the guy
with the clipboard with armcahir people on it...or not. So how does that
sound?
By the way, I'm 17, don't be expecting too much out of me except a kid
that's about to get out of school.
Well that's the deal for now, email me, if you're on the armchair and
aren't getting this letter personally e-mail me, and I'll add you to the
list.
Later,
Dustin

Okay I was making a tape for my freind, cut out their heads from a
picture, and taped it to the tape cover.
DARRENS head was the size of Roberts and Bens head combined! Have you
ever noticed how hes always inthe center? Always the focal point of
attention? I just think its interesting. (Pretty damm cool, too) Make
Love to the Camera, Darren!
