Hey everyone,
Last Saturday I was flipping through channels on TV and stopped on
Nickelodeon cause there was a giant ear of corn. It looked interesting,
so I continued watching. The show is called All That-anyway, the whole
point of me telling you this is because a BFF poster was hanging in the
background. I thought that was pretty cool.
It seems that everytime I turn on the radio, I hear Brick. Why can't
they play Army? Stupid Top 40 radio stations.
I went to the webpage with the lyrics from TUBORM and noticed that
Magic is the same song as the one Darren put on The Garden Place album
called "The Magic That Holds The Sky Up From The Ground". I like the
shortened title (Magic) better. So far I've heard three songs from the
new album. Just eight more to go. I don't think I can wait any longer.

Subject: the six bens...
alright, I'm sure a bunch of you know what I'm talking about (or not), I'm
talking about the six little bens that are at the top of the www.bffweb.com
site. You know, the little red guys where every now and then they do a
"white wave thing." Anyway, if you don't know what I'm talking about, go
check it out, it's cool.
That wasn't the point though; my point is that I put the little guys as
my background (I have a PC) in the tile format and the "white wave thing"
still happens! So I have little bens turning different collors on my
background and it is really cool. But you have to have it in "active
Desktop" mode. Just try it, it rocks.

Subject: An interview with dem boys
Hey y'all
In May I'll be having doing an interview with the band (not sure if it's
one or all yet) for my website Helmet Heads (
http://www.geocities.com/hollywood/lot/5009 ) and I was wondering if
anybody had any questions for them. I figure getting questions from fans
is far better than me dreaming up things that I want to know.
Mail me at dave-holloway@usa.net (NOT THE ADDRESS I'M SENDING THIS MAIL
FROM) with any questions you want me to ask, be them funny or serious and
I'll do my upmost best...
Dave

<<Anyway, my
bud played it for me a couple days ago, and my first impression when I was
listening to it is that it reminded me of the Beatles. ...I'm not quite sure
why, or what specific song exactly. Penny Lane kind of comes to mind. I
don't know. Maybe I'm just crazy. >>
Wow, that is verrry weird! That's what I thought too! Exactly.. I LOVE it..
It's stuck in my head, but I don't mind :) Anyone else think of the Beatles?
