Re: Neil on the web
Hey Grace, I looked it up here: https://www.frenzforum.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=000356 Go down to the posting and link for World Time Server. It says Midnight on the 10th in Minneapolis so I'm assuming that's the same for Chicago. So that makes it the night of December 9th.... I think!

Thanks Jenn, I guess we should just start checking every hour on the hour on the 9th and go from there. I'm glad it's at night, I have dsl at home but my work connection sucks!

Re: Bootlegs, Taboo????
Neil talked about this exact subject during his acoustic set at Tower Records in Seattle on July 9th, 2002. Neil thanked everyone who'd bought the new CD, and someone in the audience shouted something about them downloading it instead. Neil laughed and said "well, that's ok....as long as you buy one EVENTUALLY." Then he said that, "actually, you could alternate: buy one, then burn one, then buy one, etc." Then he laughed and said "Yeah, that's fine....I've made enough money!" So there you...

Re: who has an American teen?
I'm not a parent, but I was once a teen( ) , and so was my sister, and my brother is going into 9th grade now. If she's not into sports, maybe she likes the arts. There are lots of performing arts programs for teens, especially acting, where she can meet other kids. Acting classes can also be a means to boost esteem if you think that's an issue. Another idea is a drawing or pottery class. She may need some outlet for this major life change, and art can be a great way to do that. Photography...

Re: 5 Random Things About Yourself
Okay, five VERY random things: * My dad is a radio nut (he used to work in commercial radio, and now tinkers with old radios as a hobby). Not sure if this was intentional, but my first and middle name initials are "F.M." and my brother's are (yes, you guessed it) "A.M."... * My wedding date, written in the Australian (rather than American) date protocol, was 9/11 (that's the 9th November, BTW).

Re: Split Enz LIVE!!
84 sleeps till Sydney concert (June 9th)!! The Split Enz Reunion concert is just soooooooooo about the shoes. I'm thinking the uggies with the stubbies, & the blue king gee singlet. Um, well actually, i think that's what i wore to the acadaca concert. Might just go with jeans & a t. Might dig out the Dr Scholls for the footwear. Either that, or socks & sandles.

Re: Split Enz LIVE!!
Thought i might just bring my "voi boi" stubby holder. Sigh, white nylon with bling bling. I'm thinking the only thing that would probably go with that are some designer thongs (flip-flops to some). Which is what most Aussie football fans wear Suzanne. When i read that post by Katty saying she was a "creepy lurker", i had this mental image of the Creature From The Black Lagoon, don't know why.
