really,

  slight visual resemblences,
 
 then the women chosen had nothing to do with it whatsoever.
 
 Which? That is contradiction.
 
 I am doing this now out of arguemnets sake. [/b]
I can't believe that you are so out of it that I have to detail every tiny little thing here. Monica and Kim have not a thing to do with Lulu nor I. Monica was wearing glasses. Lulu wears glasses. She had a big smile on her face. Lulu had a big smile on her face. She had a drink in her hand. We all had drinks in our hands. For Kim, it was just the blonde hair with bangs which I have. Monica and Kim were standing with Thurston. Lulu and I were hanging out with Thirsty at times.
 
 Does that explain it or do you need more detail?   :roll:    :roll:    :roll:

 The merchandise table was really busy at the end of the show and it looked like they shifted a handy number of copies of twice. It was done by around 12.30. I got home just gone 1. [/b]
Dammit Dammit.  I'm sorry, but I generally don't like the staff at the Lounge.  They're never helpful and I was yelled at by a bartender.
 
 They told me the Tyde would go on around midnight, and that was just too late.  I said to my friends, if it's 11:00, I'm going.  *AND* I could have picked up a copy of Twice. It was the idea of getting home after 13:30 a.m. that had me nervous (lotta work today).
 
 Dammit dammit.  
 
 Well, I'm going to drown my sorrows in lots and lots and lots of German beer.   ;)

Sure. You said your thing I said mine.
 
 I didnt mean to make such a bid deal about it. I enjoyed watching you dig you hole deeper and the argument though.
 
 I am sure Lulu will get her own back as and when she feels like it. I am certain she doesnt need me to defend her. It was just fun playing that role.

I am sorry bags.
 
 I can supply you with a CDR of the tyde if you are desperate to listen to it before the next show.
 
 The bartender was having a bad night. There was no contract with the band, and he was having to look after them as best he could. They were making simple enough demands and had ordinary enough questions, but I think it was awkward for him as he didnt know the details of the contract.

Um, huh. Trying to save face, I see.
 
 And I did no hole digging whatsoever. Guess the world looks upside down in there, ha Markie?
 
 And yes, I know how well you thrive on arguement.
 
 For what it's worth, I consider Lulu my friend and had not the slightest intention of insulting her. Hopefully she will see this much more accurately than you did. She plays those games too so I'm sure she has a much better sense of humor than you do this week.

Ditto -- though 30 second snippets bug the hell out of me.  I really can't tell at all, but it's mellower than I would have thought.  I will certainly stay around and check them out when they hit the Cat.
 
 Pollard, have they changed over time, album to album?

Can't answer very accurately because the last album was never released here and the one song I did hear off of it was awful, probably trying to recreate the success of their one hit, which was different, and worse, than the rest of that album (high/low).
 
 oh, and if you watch the videos, they are the full songs, although not the best 3 songs on the album in my opinion, but not bad either

Thanks, Markie.  I'll buy the Tyde -- I like to support bands, though it has been tough to find the CD.
 
 And I wasn't there last night, so it wasn't the bartender last night who yelled at me (don't want to cast any aspersions on an innocent bartender!).  I had a rough time at the Nighties show.  What are ya gonna do.  I tend to be there when the place is crowded, so tempers may be a bit more raw.

I bought two copies, one from ebay, $10 and one in a record store for $2.50 two weeks before it was released. I guess neither of them helped the band.
 
 I bought a T-shirt and a single last night to compensate. I am wearing the T now.
 
 Amazon now has Once and Twice together for $28.97. Once imho is better than twice.

I know that www.insound.com has at least one of their releases as that's where I got an MP3 of theirs from. (Sorry, I didn't bother to go look for you.)
 
 Look around a bit though because Insound can be a bit pricey. It's a great store with a great site but they are paying high NYC rents and salaries.

Dude, wearing the t-shirt the day after the concert is sooooo unhip.
