Hey list, now that the army video is finally officially out, why dont we mass 
request it for TRL.  Why Not?  The last time someone mentioned it, it was 
shot down becasue their videos wern't new.  But now we have one.  Let's get 
this fucker going.  I still haven't seen it.

Ben Folds Five and Fleming and John at Franklin' and Marshall College april,
19th was one hell of a show.  These guys really know how to make a place
fill with energy in no time, I encourage all of you who havn't seen a show
yet to get off your ass and check one out because you have not seen anything
yet, and i'd like to make a comment to Robert Sledge - if anyone here is
able to get this to him perhaps.. Bring in the bass ya'll and thanks for not
biffing the bass solo in Song for the dumped - that meant alot to my bass
player who was there with me, keep up the great work and i'm hopin' to see
you at Penn State university park on your tour again!   -peace
