Subject: new release!
That's it folks. All the waiting is over. The album of the year is finally
here!
That's right, my life is more complete now that New Kids on the Block:
Greatest Hits will be released on Feb 16. I can die happily now. (i admit, i
liked them way back when. i still have two t-shirts, but i lost my trading
cards.)
Seriously, is releasing a NKOTB greatest hits album in 1999 a joke? Oh wait, i
get it...they're probably just trying to revive the old-school boy-band image
in the midst of all the Backstreet Boys/N Sync crazes of today. Well, good
luck with that.
Bentent: Ben Folds Five is a boy band. :)
Also, i'm really interested in knowing if the announced show dates are for
students only...i'm sure you'll post it if you know. That would rock if they
played somewhere close to me on 4/21, my birthday. We can hope.
Happy (late) Valentine's Day to all...will you be mine?
Have a stellar day,
Emily

Subject: Videos
Does anyone know what the band plans to do with the band film footage they
were asking for on the BFFWEB site? I assume they will be compiling the
videos, but does anyone have any details, like is it just for the bands
amusement, or do they plan on releasing it?

Subject: bhagavad gita
"down by rosemary and cameron.."
just to stir up an old topic, i found this funky hindu-ISH-like page with a
picture captioned "Lord Krishna instructing Bhagavad-Gita to Arjuna." (its the
picture under the elephant, ganesha.)
its a page full of all kinds of weird yoga type shit:

Everytime I go to www.benfoldsfive.org it says Unknown Host......could this be
why he isn't emailing anyone, because that's the server his email is on.

$30 is outrageous...I was talking about the people that complained about
paying $10 for a DOUBLE BFF cd.

i haven't posted in a long time, but that's alright...just wondering about
bff's former bands
i already know about majosha, got a tape of that. ben also had a band called
pots and pans which i beleive eddie walker was also in. anyone know if any of
their stuff is floating around? also armageddon. much like paul, i was also
wondering what happened to their stuff and why no one has it. maybe they
didn't release anything? well...let me know if you all find anything.
