Avoid TicketMaster's *$5.50* per ticket charge by calling the
Trocadero box office at 215-922-5483; they only add a $2.00 per ticket charge and your tix will be waiting for you at N. Star's door (N. Star doesn't have a box office, so the Troc helps them out by selling tix). Or if you are in Philly, avoid the tix charges altogether by going directly to the N. Star Bar.

Grape Jam
(also check out www.grapejam.net)
Glenwood, NY
Glenwood is at Kissing Brige in the Southern Tier
schedule: http://www.goerie.com/grapejam/schedule.htm
Fruvous is headlining Sun nite at around 6.
As for directions, standard to Buffalo unless coming from south. Here are specifics. If
coming from north, east or west take I-90 to Buffalo and then to Route
219. Take 219 to Big Tree Road and head east. Continue on Big Tree into
the village of Orchard Park untill Route 277 and make a right. Follow 277
untill you reach Route 240, at which you will bear left. Stay on 240
untill you reach Kissing Bridge(this will be at least 20 mins if not
more), which will be on the right. I would suggest the "Central" entrance
to avoid walking(although the stage could be elsewhere). The Central
entrance is the second entrance, the "North" entrance will be first. If
coming from the South, take the Southern Tier Expressway(Route 17) and
then the 219 north to Springville. In Springville, take a right when the
219 turns left and follow that untill you see signs for 240 and then a
left on 240. KB as the locals call it will be on the left. These
directions for the southen route are not certain, so please check them out
first.

I was told to include a daytime phone number & address with the order & to call them in about a week
to make sure the money order arrived safely.

Saturday, June 3, 2000 Advance tickets are $28.00 for adults and
$24.00 for students and seniors
Free for childrean 12 and under
(there is a Childrens Village, but no daycare)
Tickets are $4.00 more than above when purchased at the gate.
There's free parking, but unless you're there at 8:00am, plan on
hiking.
It's an open air show with 12 other acts, including Mary Chapin
and the Asylum Street Spankers (they're supposed to be quite
funny) and John Gorka.
Fruvous will be appearing on the Meadow Stage (there are two
stage areas- the Meadow stage is the biggest) at approx 3:15pm.
Speaking from previous experience, I'd say it will be later than
that- by the time the closing act got onstage last time, it was
over 1hr45mins into overtime.
There are no chairs (Meadow means MEADOW- grass and dirt!) and
they search everyone's coolers and baskets and such for
alcohol. That takes FOREVER. The food was not too overpriced,
but I'd definately bring a cooler and lots of drinks. Lowback
beach chairs and blankets are good, too, but I remember not
being able to see much becuase of a few full size beach
umbrellas, so do the hat-and-sunscreen thing.

From Chad Schrock:
First of all, don't come down 95. It's a waste of time and money.
From Wilmington and north:
- That being said, take 95 south to Deleware.
- Exit at Deleware 1 South, towards Christiana
- Follow 1 until you get to US40
- Exit on US40 west[2]
- Drive for about 2 miles or so. Sit at al the traffic lights.
- Turn left on to Del 896, to Annapolis/Bay Bridge
- Follow 896 until it turns into US301
- Follow 301 for about 10 miles until you get into Maryland
- In Maryland 301 turns into a divided highway. For the next
40 miles you are going to drive by farms and trees and the
occasional critter.
- US301 will merge into US50 and you will be on a freeway until
you get to Annapolis.
- Go over the Kent Narrows. Welcome to Kent Island.
- After a few more miles, you will go over the Bay Bridge.
Do try and maintain speed, though.
- Go over the Severn River (the next bridge)
Once you get to Annapolis:
- Exit at Exit 24/MD 70/Rowe Blvd, Annapolis. (Not the exit
for Bestgate Road.)
- Follow Rowe Blvd. over a bridge, through a stop light, past
the District Court bldg and stadium (both on the right),
through another stop light, and over a second bridge.
- Bear to the right immedeately after the bridge onto
Calvert Street. If you bump into the State House, you
didn't bear right, did you? [3]
- At the light, the road bears to the left again. You want
to keep going right. (And stay on Calvert.) If you bump
into the church, you didn't keep going right, did you? [4]
- At the next real light[5] is West Street, and the Ram's
Head is just off to the left on the other side of West Street.
(It's a bit hard to miss.)
- Look for the FrüHeads.
PARKING:
- You can park on West Street somewhere[6]
- There are garages on both sides of Calvert Street as you
drive towards West Street. (Only the one on the right
is open 24 hours, I think, though. Always read the fine print.)
- If you turn around and take Calvert back out to Rowe Blvd,
go straight at the light and there are two parking lots.
Both are for state employees during the day. After hours,
they are open to the public.
Coming down 301, you will save $6.50 in tolls and about an
extra 90 minutes in travel time round trip.[7]
When you go home, there is a $2.50 toll to go back across the
Bay Bridge.
How long does this miracle trip take, you ask? It takes me
almost exactly 2 hours to go from the Painted Bride in Old
Phila-something to my doorstep, off of exit 29 on US50.
(Keep a watchful eye out for State troopers on 301 in MD, but
I usually set my cruise control to about 70ish and enjoy the
really quiet trip.)

Customer must present the actual credit card used to

Parking
Plenty of Free on-site parking is available
Directions (thanks to Zard): Take 95 south until the 95/495 split south of Baltimore (closer to
DC). 495 should be toward College Park, while 95 will say Richmond. Take
495 - it's a right exit, and you just stay all the way right until you
merge onto the Beltway (495). Follow that all the way around to Virginia
(you'll cross a big bridge over the Potomac), stay right, and take the
first exit in Virginia - George Washington Parkway. Stay right. (Don't
take any parkway exits until you're actually in Virginia.) Follow the
Parkway quite a ways - you'll come near DC, you'll have the river on your
left, go past Rosslyn, Key Bridge exit, and then soon you'll see
monuments, etc. on your left, and then you'll see a sign for 395 south, a
right exit. Take it and merge onto 395 south. Lanes appear and
disappear, so stay kind of central, and then shortly thereafter you'll see
an exit for Shirlington/Glebe Road. Stay right as you take the exit - it
breaks into two, and you want Glebe Road, which'll be the right lane.
BUT, then get in the left lane, since you want to take a left at the light
at the end of the exit. That puts you on Glebe Road east/south. Stay in
the left lane. At the first light, the road bends to the left - follow
it. You go through another light, and at the 3rd light (Mount Vernon
Ave.) take a right. Go through 3 more lights, and just after the big
"Parts USA" on the left, you'll see "Birchmere Entrance" and a parking lot
- all on your left. There you are!!

If you didn't see them then, don't miss them this time. We're talking live entertainment!! Start with your basic rockin' bass/drums/2 guitar combo; add lyrics that range from humorous to heartfelt, from whimsical to political; add amazing 4-part harmonies; add some guerilla theatricality and audience rapport. Stand back! Be prepared for a raucous, verbally slapstick, high-energy show.

Tuesday, February 15, 2000 The historic Michigan Theater opened January 5, 1928 at the peak of the
vaudeville/movie palace era. Designed by Maurice Finkel, the Theater cost
around $600,000 when it was first built. The gracious facade and beautiful
interior housed not only the theater, but nine stores, offices on the second floor
and bowling alleys running the length of the basement. As was the custom of the
day, the Theater was equipped to host both film and live stage events, with a full-
size stage, dressing rooms, an orchestra pit, and the Barton Theater Organ,
acclaimed as the best of its kind in the country.
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, the 1,710-seat theater struggled against
changes in the film industry and the owners put the Theater up for sale,
threatening its very existence until the non-profit Michigan Theater Foundation, a
newly-founded group dedicated to preserving the facility, stepped in to operate
the failing movie house in 1979.
After a partial renovation in 1986 which restored the Theater's auditorium
and Grand Foyer to its 1920s-era movie palace grandeur, the Theater has
become Ann Arbor's home of quality cinema as well as a popular venue for the
performing arts. Further restoration of the balcony, outer lobby and facade is
planned for 2003.

***SOLD OUT***
Directions to the Iron Horse:
From Adam Hartfield:
Northampton is about 15 miles north of West Springfield on Interstate
91/US Route 5. Route 9 runs east-west through Northampton. Hadley and
Amherst are east of Northampton on Route 9.
Holyoke is the next town north of W. Spfld, and Northampton is the next
town north after Holyoke.
Riverdale Street in West Springfield is US Route 5. It is a divided
highway. I believe odd numbers are on the northbound side, and even
numbers are on the southbound side. Riverdale St. is easily reached by
exits 13A&B off Interstate 91, or exit 4 from Interstate 90 (the
Massachusetts Turnpike). 13A heads north at about the 1200 block, and
13B heads south from that same block.
Below is the actual list of lodging places. All seven-digit numbers are
in area code 413. 800 numbers are for reservations. Sorry, I don't know
if 800 numbers will work if you're calling from Canada.

Tuesday, November 16, 1999 Directions
from the North/Northwest: (New York, Ontario, northern Ohio, Michigan, since
76E takes you to 79S)
you'll be coming down 79 SOUTH. Take this to 279 SOUTH and then follow signs
to 376 EAST towards Monroeville. When you exit, you'll be on an access road,
rather than the highway itself. Stay to the left, despite what the first sign
tells you (it's backwards!) The next sign has things right, and you should
continue until there's a ramp in what appears to be the middle of two roads.
It's fairly confusing. There's a light, and you'll want to go straight but to
the left. It's obvious when you see it. This is 376 EAST.
Get far to the right immediately and take the first exit, which is Forbes Ave.
Oakland (or something like that) and this puts you on Forbes Ave, which is one
way. Get in the third lane over from the left and stay there. Eventually
Forbes will become two-way. You're now in the far left lane, and you'll be
turning left on S. Craig St, which is the first light after Forbes becomes
two-way.
Continue on Craig until you get to Baum (it's the one after Center, and
there's a big hill on the other side of the intersection), and take a right.
Now find parking, because Graffiti's is right there.
from the South/West/Southwest: (Central/Southern Ohio, West Virginia, etc)
you'll be coming up 79 NORTH (eventually - some of you will be taking 70 EAST
to get to 79 NORTH) take it to 279 NORTH, following signs to Pittsburgh. Once
you're on 279 NORTH, follow signs to 376 EAST towards Monroeville.
Fortunately, the exit puts you right onto the highway instead of an access
road, so all you'll need to do is get to the right. From this point, follow
the same directions as above.
from the East: (DC, Philly, etc)
take the Turnpike to 376 WEST towards Pittsburgh. Exit at the Oakland exit
(and don't ooh and ahh at the view of downtown when you come around the curve,
because you'll miss the exit!), and take a right at the end of the ramp. Go
straight until you come to the large one-way street, which should have a sign
near it that says FORBES. Take a right onto it, and get in the third lane
over from the left. Continue following the directions from above.

". . .like watching someone running a musical blender with the top off, spraying wet chunks of folk and jazz and rap and bles and funk and God-know what else all over the kitchen." (J. Eric Smith, Metroland, Albany, NY)
Coming to Graffiti on Tuesday, November 16, is Toronto originated, Moxy Fruvous. Over the course of their career Moxy Fruvous have made genre hopping their calling card, from soca a cappella songs to Middle Eastern-inflected epics to three minute pop gems. And their lyrics are as challenging and diverse as their music, from humorous to heartfelt, from whimsical to political, all infused with a sense of sly intellectual fun. This eclectic package is sewn together by a few common threads that run throughout their music, such as banjo, accordian melodeon, harmonica and strings, usually on top of a solid bass/drums/acoustic guitar combo.
"Good as the band is on record, fans say the live show is where it's at."
(Cary Stemle, Louisville Eccentric Observer)

to a Moxy Früvous album for proof)"
From Ticketmaster: From South/Southwest of Philadelphia:
However you prefer to get to I-95, do so. Take I-95 North to I-476 North
(the Blue Route) to where it connects to the PA Turnpike (I-276).
You want I-276 East. Make sure you go toward New Jersey, not
toward Harrisburg or Allentown or some fool place like that. :)
Take I-276 East to Fort Washington, Exit # 26. (first exit, about 4-5
miles.) It's a 50-cent toll. Once through the tollbooth take highway
309 South 4.5 miles to the ***Glenside*** exit of Easton Road.
Follow Easton Road for 1.7 miles to Keswick Avenue. (you will be
passing through a couple of small main-street type business districts
the way, will pass Beaver College, and will cross under a railroad
bridge.) Make the right onto Keswick Avenue; the theater is on the
left, about a half-block down the street.
From Central/North Jersey, New York and New England: take NJ
Turnpike South to Exit 6, the crossover for the PA Turnpike. Take
PA Turnpike West to Exit 26 and follow above directions.
From South Jersey: take the bridge of your choice to I-76 West
(Schuylkill Expressway) to I-476 North; follow above directions.
From western points accessed by PA Turnpike: take Turnpike East
to exit 26 and follow above directions.
From eastern PA: if you're in the vicinity of 309 you can take it
all the way to Easton Avenue; if not, get yourself to PA Turnpike
exit #26 and follow above directions. Highway 611 also will get
you to Easton Avenue in Willow Grove, and you can follow that
into Glenside. (Whether you take 309 or 611 north or south to get
to Easton Avenue, and then make a left or a right onto Easton
Avenue, depends on where in the area you are starting from, of
course. :) )

Directions to the venue:
By T--take the red line to Davis. Look for a
movie theater. it's really obvious. this is the easy way. (the show will
be in the largest room in the theater. they do show movies in there, too,
when they don't have concerts.)
By car: if you insist on not taking the T... Davis Square is a pain to
drive. If you don't know the area, buy a map. you will get lost. Just
because I claim a street has a name doesn't mean you'll be able to find a
sign anywhere to prove it.
From the Masspike: take the MassPike to the Allston/Cambridge exit (exit
18).
After paying the toll, the ramp splits. follow it right (Cambridge). Go
straight through the lights and across the river. This puts you on River
Street. River Street takes you to Central Square, then becomes Prospect
Street. Keep following prospect street until you get to Hampshire Street
(landmark: KFC). Turn left on Hampshire Street. Follow Hampshire Street
through Inman Square. Hampshire Street becomes Beacon Street. Keep going.
Eventually, the street takes a hard right curve, and ends at a light.
That's Somerville Ave. Turn right. You'll see a Gulf station on your left.
You want to turn left at that Gulf station. You'll make about a 150 degree
turn onto Elm Street. Follow Elm street until it makes you turn right.
That's Grove Street. Follow it until it ends (not very far). Turn left
onto Highland Ave. You're now on Highland Ave driving towards Davis square.
Start looking for parking. This is the part where you wish you had taken
the T. (Mapquest will tell you to go through Harvard Square and up Mass
Ave. In general, any route involving either of Harvard Square or Mass Ave
is not one you want to take if you can help it.)
From I-93 South: Take I-93 South to exit 30 (28/38 Mystic Ave, Somerville).
Take a right at the end of the ramp. This puts you on Mystic Ave north. Go
a little under half a mile to Harvard Street. Take a left onto Harvard
Street. Follow Harvard Street until you come to a Big Rotary. You want to
end up on College Ave, headed in about the same direction as you were headed
on Harvard Street. That amounts to about 2/3 of the way around the rotary.
College Ave will take you right into Davis Square. Start looking for
parking. This is the part where you wish you had taken the T.
From I-93 North: Take I-93 North to exit 29. the ramp splits. take the
left fork ("28/38 Somerville"). you come to a light. you want to go more
or less straight through the light, which will take you under I-93. You
want to end up on 38 North, which runs parallel to I-93, on the left side of
the highway as you're driving north. You'll also want to immediately cut
across traffic, because you're turning left at the first light you come to
(Temple Street). Follow Temple until it ends (two lights). Turn right onto
Broadway. Follow Broadway until you come to a Big Rotary. You want to end
up on College Ave westbound, which is about equivalent to a left turn from
Broadway. But you end up going most of the way around the rotary to get
there. College ave will take you right into Davis Square. Start looking
for parking. This is the part where you wish you had taken the T.
The Theatre is next to the Holland Street exit of the
subway. Exiting the other portal will make for a
longer walk.

First spotted by a CBC radio executive while busking in Toronto, MOXY
FRUVOUS has gone on to release 6 full-length albums, the most recent being
"Thornhill". The four lads descended on THE TRAGICALLY HIP's Bathhouse Studio
near Kingston, Ontario, and over four weeks experienced a collective
flashback that resulted in an album with all the hallmarks of their
formative years, with a few modern flourishes thrown in. Produced by Don
Dixon (R.E.M., MATTHEW SWEET, THE SMITHEREENS), the challenge as he saw it
was to make them sound not like four solo artists, but like a band with
four lead vocalists. The new album is released in Canada on True North/
Universal and in the U.S. on Razor & Tie/ BMG.
The lads appeared recently on "Open Mike" with MIKE BULLARD and are
scheduled to appear on THE CONAN O'BRIEN SHOW on Tuesday, October 12. They
played THE GUINNESS FLEADH this summer, which took them to Boston, New York,
Chicago and San Francisco, playing with the likes of VAN MORRISON and
ELVIS COSTELLO. This current tour sees them playing the length and breadth
of the U.S.A. and they return to Canada to play two nights at Zaphod 2.
Many of their American fans have already snapped up tickets for this show
as it falls on their Thanksgiving weekend. So expect to see "fruheads"
from all over the U.S. and Canada at this special two-night engagement.
Come for the music, stay for the fun!

Directions from Lori:
Zaphod Beeblebrox 2: 363 Bank Street, Ottawa ON
(Bank Street at Gilmour)
From western NY, NYC region, Philadelphia region, and other points
southwest or south:
get to Interstate 81 in New York. From Philadelphia area, this means get
to Interstate 476 and take it north to where it joins I-81 at the end of the
toll portion of I-476 (aka Northeast Extension of PA Turnpike). From NYC
area, take highway 17 west to I-81 North.
Take I-81 to the Canadian border at Hill Island/Lansdowne. Do the
customs thing. Be polite. Don't have a gun rack in your car. :)
After customs, follow signs to 401 East. Take 401 East to 16/416. Go
North toward Ottawa, not South toward Prescott/Bridge to USA. (duh)
Follow 16/416 North; when 416 cuts off follow 416N to 417(commonly
called the Queensway). You're in the greater Ottawa area!
Take 417 East to the downtown area. Now it gets interesting, because
Queensway ramps are interesting. Sorry about that, but I hope these
directions are clear enough. (Hugo? MC? hKath? Care to offer any
better interpretations?)
As you head into downtown you should notice signs for some of the
following (I'm listing them in west-to-east order):
Bronson Street; Bay Street; Lyon Street (though I think this goes one
way the wrong way); Kent Street; Bank Street.
Any of these will do just fine. See the signs and rest assured
you're not far. :)
If you happen to get off at Bronson, that's very cool. If not, don't panic;
directions forthcoming. :)
First, if you do manage to get off onto Bronson Street: go North (left)
on Bronson to Gilmour; make right on Gilmour (there *is* no left;
Gilmour ends at Bronson) and follow to Bank. The club is in the
vicinity of Bank and Gilmour (according to Mapquest it's on the
corner, but given MQ's rep I wouldn't take that for granted. :)
If you see signs for Bay, Lyon, Kent or Bank: get off 417 at that exit!
The ramp will put you on a feeder street called Chamberlain; that's fine.
Take Chamberlain east (ie, straight off the ramp) and check the street
signs of cross streets. When you see one of the above, if you CAN
make a left do so! Bank Street is preferable, but any will do.
Follow any of these to Gilmour. If you're already on Bank Street, you
should be in front of Zaph 2's. If you're on one of the others, make the
right onto Gilmour and follow to Bank.
If for any reason you find yourself confronted with a street that doesn't
go the way I say it should -- don't sweat it. Continue the way you're
going to the next intersection; that street will go the right way, and
will parallel the street I told you to be on. Ottawa's nice like that. :)
Just continue following the directions, knowing you're one block too far
in whichever direction I overshot, so you can backtrack.
For those staying at the Albert at Bay Hotel Suites:
If you find Bay Street off the Queensway, or en route to Zaph's 2, the
hotel is 9 blocks north from the corner of Bay and Gilmour. (one block
south of the corner of Queen and Bay -- hey Organ Grinder! :) ) If
you're in our room, I don't guarantee we'll be checking in before the
Friday pm show, but you could always find out if we've arrived.
If you want to find the hotel from Zaph 2's, go North on Bank 9 blocks
to Albert, make a left and continue 3 blocks to Bay.
(In all my references, "blocks" are major streets, usually with lights,
not little rinky-dink side streets/courts/alleys that might or might not
be there, but don't show up either in my memory or on the Ottawa
street map in front of me.)
I'm including a Mapquest hyperlink to a downtown Ottawa map, but
whether the link will still be active by the time you get this message is
a matter of pure speculation: MapQuest Ottawa Results
I got the map by entering the address of the club: 363 Bank Street,
Ottawa ON, and asking for a map. Not directions. MQ in its wisdom
can't figure out US---> Canada or Canada----> US directions, although it
can give Canadian city maps. Go figure.
That's all I can think of for now ... I hope it makes sense!

Some info:
It's in the Keefe Student Center, a yellowish building on a hillside. To get
there by car, go in the main entrance of the college (on Route 116 right
near the intersection of Routes 9 and 116), go straight, then go 3/4 of the
way around the square and turn right. This will be as if you went straight
from the main entrance, but the square is one way so you can't go directly
down the short end. Anyway, after you have turned right, you'll go down the
hill, and the student center is on your right. There's a plaza in front of
the building with a low hip wall around it. Park wherever you can, I guess.

NO MOSH/BODY SURFING
Internet Onsale: Thursday, Sep 9 1999, 5:00PM
Charge-By-Phone #: 217/351-2626
This club is actually located in Urbana, not Champaign. For those unfamiliar with the area,
Urbana is conveniently located adjacent to Champaign (they are for
most practical purposes the same town)
Interesting setup. It's a movie theater, but there are rows ripped
out in front of the stage to form a dancing/standing/moshing area. There
are still seats on the main floor, and there's also a "balcony" that will
hold between 150 and 200 people.
The club is on the east side of Goodwin, and that's where most of the decent
(on-street) parking is.
Directions:
Coming in from the North or South on I-57, take the exit for I-74 East
into Urbana. Coming from the East or West, you should already be on
I-74. Get off at Lincoln Ave and go South. It's easy to tell if you
are going the wrong way on Lincoln because if you are, you'll see
nothing but corn. Okay so now you're heading south on Lincoln,
looking at buildings (and still some corn too). Take that a couple
miles to Green Street (it's a light) and turn right (there are both an
Amoco and a Mobil station on this corner). Turn left at the next
light (Goodwin Ave). The Canopy is just past the first stop-sign on
the left. Parking should not be all hard to come by.

"Coming from Canada," a Toronto-based quartet of singer-songwriters who double as political satirists, comedians, social commentators, etc. The band includes Mike Ford (guitar, harmonica, bongos, keyboard, occasional drum kit and vocals), Murray Foster (bass, occasional drum kit, percussion, occasional guitar, and vocals), Jian Ghomeshi (drums, percussion, occasional guitar, and vocals), and Dave Matheson (guitar, accordion, banjo, keyboards, and vocals). They've been playing together as a group since about 1990 and are known for their experimentation, dabbling in genres from barbershop quartet to grunge, retro rock to rap, ballads to Saturday morning cartoons.

The venue will be Louis' Pub on the U of S campus. Some Louis' shows are all-ages, but the Fruvous show probably won't be. You don't have to be a student to go.
Louis' is a nice, small (for the university's size) campus pub with a good but sometimes cramped dance floor. It's in the downstairs of the Memorial Union Building (MUB), and has a nice big green canopy sign over the front door. Very easy to find once you get onto the campus. The prices aren't bad and if you drink beer, Rickard's Red is available.
If you arrive on campus early, the Place Riel building, a 90-second walk
from the MUB, has a downstairs food court (A&W, Taco Time, Treats) and
video arcade. In the downtown (cross the University Bridge, go down to
3rd Avenue, then turn left) you'll find some really good coffee shops
and restaurants, as well as the Midtown Plaza on 1st Avenue - a nice, if
somewhat conventional, mall with a good food court.

Bowling Green celebrates the arts with the Black Swamp Arts Festival, held in Downtown
Bowling Green, Ohio - home of Bowling Green State University and just 20
miles south of Toledo. The Festival opens Friday, September 10, with a
kick-off concert at 5:00 pm, then continues through Saturday and Sunday.
There are a wide range of activities for all ages including four stages of
ongoing musical and theatrical performances, a special area for youth
activities, and plenty of food and refreshments featuring vendor styles
"from around the world." At the heart of the Main Street area is the
Juried Art Show and the Wood County Invitational Art Exhibit which
features fine artists from all over the country.
"Ontario, Canada's pop sensation is stopping in BG for a romp at the swamp! Often compared to the
'Bare Naked Ladies' also of Canadian fame, this 4-some has been popular on
college campuses and concert halls for nearly a decade. Their music is
fresh, lively, and witty. "

Thursday, August 26, 1999 COMING BY CAR FROM THE WEST (Buffalo, Rochester, St Catharines.. you
people)
Take the QEW (Queen Elizabeth Way) East to the Gardiner Expressway. Get
off the Gardiner at York St and take York south for the block or less
until you hit Queen's Quay Boulevard. Turn right onto that street, and
cruise along looking at the miles of parking lot on your right hand side
(that's what it seems like sometimes anyway) Park, get out, cross
Queen's Quay Blvd and keep walking south till you hit the edge of the
lake. If you went a considerable distance past York St then head to your
left. Otherwise, head to your right. You're looking for an ampitheatre
with a roof and no walls.
COMING BY CAR FROM THE EAST (Kingston, Ottawa, Montreal, Vermont, people
licensed by Canada Customs to tape Fruvous shows...)
Take the 401 to the DVP (Don Vally Parkway) South to the Gardiner
Expressway or Lakeshore Blvd. Get off either one at York St and take
York south for the block or less until you hit Queen's Quay Boulevard.
Turn right onto that street, and cruise along looking at the miles of
parking lot on your right hand side (that's what it seems like sometimes
anyway) Park, get out, cross Queen's Quay Blvd and keep walking south
till you hit the edge of the lake. If you went a considerable distance
past York St then head to your left. Otherwise, head to your right.
You're looking for an ampitheatre with a roof and no walls.
COMING BY BUS
Get yourself into the Departures area of the bus terminal and take the
escalator downstairs. Follow the hallway, past the Second Cup, until you
come to a door to the outside. Exit here and enter the Atrium by opening
the doors directly in front of you. Keep walking in the same direction,
keep your eyes peeled for signs pointing to your right saying "SUBWAY".
Follow these signs. Keep reading - find the SOUTHBOUND side, and pay the
fare. Get on and ride the subway past Queen and King. You're getting off
at Union. Find stairs that say something along the lines of ACCESS TO
LRT and use those to go upstairs off the platform. Follow signs to the
LRT stop. (No extra fare.. unless you use the OTHER stairs to go
upstairs) You're getting off at.. I believe it's just called "York St".
The drivers are very helpful. If you ask to be let off near Queen's Quay
Terminal, or explain you're going to Molson Place, (NOT Molson
Ampitheatre at Ontario Place) they should know where to take you. It's
an above-ground stop, just in front of that handy little blue house I've
been mentioning. Walk west from here, turning south again when it won't
involve you walking *right* into the water. On your right will be
Queen's Quay Terminal. On your left will be a boat or two. Once you're
right down at the lake's edge turn right and just keep walking.
Evenutally you'll see a bandshell/ampitheatre type structure. That would
be Molson's Place.
COMING FROM UNION STATION (Jeff and Amy this is mostly for you)
Exit the street level of Union onto Front Street. (The doors are
labelled) Turn left - the first intersection you hit will be York St and
Front. Walk south on York St. Make sure you are on the right hand side
of York St, or crossing Lakeshore Blvd becomes more complicated.
Eventually you will see a little blue cabin which is called the
Harbourmaster's Office. Walk west from here, turning south again when it
won't involve you walking *right* into the water. On your right will be
Queen's Quay Terminal. On your left will be a boat or two. Once you're
right down at the lake's edge turn right and just keep walking.
Evenutally you'll see a bandshell/ampitheatre type structure. That would
be Molson's Place.

which does begin at 7:30 p.m., but there are about 6 or 8 acts playing
that night--the concert ends at 12:00 a.m. and Fruvous will likely play
second-to-last, which means probably they'll start playing at around 9:45
or so. Also, there is NO SUNDAY PERFORMANCE SCHEDULED AS OF NOW (AUG. 16).
They may be worked into a workshop last-minute, but as of now they are
ONLY scheduled to play on Saturday night.

From Chad Schrock:
First of all, don't come down 95. It's a waste of time and money.
From Wilmington and north:
- That being said, take 95 south to Deleware.
- Exit at Deleware 1 South, towards Christiana
- Follow 1 until you get to US40
- Exit on US40 west[2]
- Drive for about 2 miles or so. Sit at al the traffic lights.
- Turn left on to Del 896, to Annapolis/Bay Bridge
- Follow 896 until it turns into US301
- Follow 301 for about 10 miles until you get into Maryland
- In Maryland 301 turns into a divided highway. For the next
40 miles you are going to drive by farms and trees and the
occasional critter.
- US301 will merge into US50 and you will be on a freeway until
you get to Annapolis.
- Go over the Kent Narrows. Welcome to Kent Island.
- After a few more miles, you will go over the Bay Bridge.
Do try and maintain speed, though.
- Go over the Severn River (the next bridge)
Once you get to Annapolis:
- Exit at Exit 29/MD 70/Rowe Blvd, Annapolis. (Not the exit
for Bestgate Road.)
- Follow Rowe Blvd. over a bridge, through a stop light, past
the District Court bldg and stadium (both on the right),
through another stop light, and over a second bridge.
- Bear to the right immedeately after the bridge onto
Calvert Street. If you bump into the State House, you
didn't bear right, did you? [3]
- At the light, the road bears to the left again. You want
to keep going right. (And stay on Calvert.) If you bump
into the church, you didn't keep going right, did you? [4]
- At the next real light[5] is West Street, and the Ram's
Head is just off to the left on the other side of West Street.
(It's a bit hard to miss.)
- Look for the FrüHeads.
PARKING:
- You can park on West Street somewhere[6]
- There are garages on both sides of Calvert Street as you
drive towards West Street. (Only the one on the right
is open 24 hours, I think, though. Always read the fine print.)
- If you turn around and take Calvert back out to Rowe Blvd,
go straight at the light and there are two parking lots.
Both are for state employees during the day. After hours,
they are open to the public.
Coming down 301, you will save $6.50 in tolls and about an
extra 90 minutes in travel time round trip.[7]
When you go home, there is a $2.50 toll to go back across the
Bay Bridge.
How long does this miracle trip take, you ask? It takes me
almost exactly 2 hours to go from the Painted Bride in Old
Phila-something to my doorstep, off of exit 29 on US50.
(Keep a watchful eye out for State troopers on 301 in MD, but
I usually set my cruise control to about 70ish and enjoy the
really quiet trip.)

From Philadelphia, take Rt. 76 across the Walt Whitman bridge to the
Atlantic City Expressway. Keep on the expressway past the Frank Farley
Service Plaza and the dollar toll, and look for exit 7S onto the Garden
State Parkway southbound. From the GSP, take exit 30 into OC, crossing the
9th Street Bridge (note: this is the bridge that Eddie plunged over in
Eddie and the Cruisers) and cross into OC. The Pier is on the Boardwalk at
around 8th St., and Ocean City is only a few blocks wide at that point, so
once you're in town over the bridge you can aim for one of the public lots
at the end of the street or on Boardwalk and be well within walking
distance.
If you miss exit 30 or are coming from the south, exit 25 works, too. Just
turn left on West Avenue after passing Yesterday's tavern/package store and
the bridge...West Ave is the second light, past the WaWa. Take West to 9th
St. Going to Exit 25 will cost you a 35 cent toll on the GSP, but it does
take you past the cooling tower of the power plant if you want an
opportunity to burst into song. :D
Another note: Ocean City is a dry town, so don't look for a beer at the
show.

call The Michigan Union Ticket Office at 734-763-8587. The reserves aren't
available anywhere other than MUTO.
[For those of you coming into Ann Arbor for the show but otherwise unfamiliar
with the Ark: they started this new bit, a few months ago, where they sell a
block of reserved seats. They cost $4 more than the general admission, and
aren't the best seats in the house -- but if you get one, you're pretty much
guaranteed a halfway-decent seat. There's a section of gen. adm. in front of
the reserved seats, though.]

From Brent (re: picking up TM tickets at an outlet in TO):
If you've bought tickets to Sunday's show, and haven't picked them up yet, PLEASE READ THIS:
Lee's does not have "will call" - if you order your tickets by phone or on the 'net through TM, you cannot pick them up at Lee's. They must be picked up at a Ticketmaster outlet in Canada. Now, here's the thing about that:
Outlets are NOT open on Sunday, and most close by 5:30 on Saturday. You MUST pick up your tickets by closing time Saturday, or you'll have to buy another ticket! The person picking up the tickets has to be the owner of the credit card.
Outlet locations and hours can be found at http://info.ticketmaster.ca/tminfo/ticket_centres.htm
If you have questions or a problem, call TM 24 hours - (416) 870-8000
TM Canada allows people who buy tickets by phone and the 'net to pick up their tickets at a Ticket Centre. You can't do that in the States. A couple of things to pay attention to:
Outlets are NOT open on Sunday, and most close by 5:30 on Saturday. You MUST pick up your tickets by closing time Saturday, or you'll have to buy another ticket! The person picking up the tickets has to be the owner of the credit card.
Outlet locations and hours can be found at

From 'Volume' (9:30 Club advert):
Moxy Fruvous began in 1990 as a busking (street performing) band in Toronto. In the early days, they performed almost entirely a cappella and developed their knack for four-part harmony as well as a street-level guerrilla theatricality and audience rapport that remain a part of their live show today. Moxy Fruvous have since made genre-hopping their calling card, from soca a cappella songs to Middle Eastern-inflected epics to three-minute pop gems. Moxy Fruvous' lyrics are as challenging and diverse as their music, from humorous to heartfelt, from whimsical to political -- all infused with a sense of sly intellectual fun. This eclectic package is sewn together by a few common threads that run throughout their music, such as diverse musical instrumentation featuring banjo, accordian, melodeon, harmonica, and strings, usually on top of a solid bass/drums/acoustic guitar combo. Get ready for their raucous and unpredictable live show!

Ann Arbor Folk Festival
Ann Arbor, MI
Held at the Hill Auditorium
Tickets go on sale to the public on Monday, Dec. 7
Patron and Sponsor tickets for this show range in price from $60 to $120
Regular ticket price is $28.50
From Josh:
I called the Ark today, and got some good news. It's not on the website,
but anyone who wants tickets for $25 can get them starting on December
7th at the regular number. For the richer Fruheads, keep in mind that
the $60/$120 tickets are not only better seats, but the extra money goes
to supporting one of the most kickass folk venues around, which is fully
volunteer-run and nonprofit.
"Current annual Ark members can purchase advance tickets for $28.50 BY MAIL
November 2 and November 30. Only requests postmarked between November 2nd
and November 30th will be accepted.
NO PHONE ORDERS. General public sales of Folk Festival tickets will begin
on
December 7, 1998 at the Michigan Union Ticket Office and all TicketMaster
Outlets.
Patron & Sponsor Tickets on Sale Beginning November 2nd. Anyone can
purchase Patron or Sponsor tickets.
Patron Tickets: $60
Includes: a great seat and a tax-deductible donation to The Ark!
Sponsor Tickets: $120
Includes: a great seat and tax-deductible donation to The Ark / Free
parking pass for the night of the show / Backstage reception during
intermission / Discounts at area businesses!"
From A.J.:
Based on my reading of the above (and my knowlege of the Ark which has
never granted members anything like a $32 discount) I understand the info
to mean that Ark members can send for tix in November for $28.50 and ANYONE
ELSE who wants to make a donation (as the members have done) can also send
for tix in November for 60 or 120 dollars. It says nothing about ticket
prices at the Michigan Union Ticket Office, so I would assume that they are
also $28.50 which is the price sans donation.

From Drew Dalzell:
I'm a fan that's now living in Burbank (and planning to come to the show at the Roxy) and I was reading your directions to the Roxy from the Burbank Airport. Here's the deal, it's actually closer to the Burbank Airport than LAX, and there is a much quicker way to get there. Taking all those freeways actually means you are making a big circle around the place and then coming back to it.
So, from Burbank Airport take Hollywood Way. south. This is going to end right in front of Warner Bros. Studios at Olive Street. Turn right. (By the way, at this point you are only a few block from my place). Olive is going to bend to the left and then head up over a hill. At this point the street changes names and becomes Barham. This street will come to an end at Highland, make a left on Highland. This street is now running parallel to the 101 freeway. Follow highland down the hill, you'll go by the Hollywood Bowl on your right and it will curve around a bit. You'll cross over Hollywood Blvd (the Mann Chinese theatre is about 1 block to the right) and the next major street will be Sunset, make a right. Stay on Sunset, probably four or five miles, the Roxy will be on your right.
This route takes about 30 minutes in clear traffic, 45 to and hour in bad traffic. Much better than all those freeways.
Well, just thought that you might like to know that there is a faster way for your fans to go, and they get to pass by a few Los Angeles landmarks on the way.
From Doug Levy:
Burbank to the Roxy is really pretty easy:
Turn right on Hollywood Way out of the airport main exit/entrance. Follow Hollywood Way to Victory Blvd., turn right on Victory. Follow Victory to Laurel Canyon Blvd. Turn left on Laurel Canyon (south, which is toward the hills) and follow Laurel Canyon through the "flats" of the Valley up into the hills. This is a main road that narrows and winds several miles until you go up and over the hills and back down toward the rest of LA. (The major intersection at the top of the hills is Mulholland Drive.) As the road flattens out, you'll come to Sunset Blvd. Turn right on Sunset and watch for the Roxy, which will be on your right. (It's near LaCienega Blvd. If you see a sign that says you've entered Beverly Hills, you've gone too far.)
To get from LAX to the Roxy, my way avoids the 405 freeway, which really is a giant parking lot most of the time:
Follow LAX airport exit signs to Century Blvd heading East. Turn left on LaCienega Blvd (which is adjacent to the San Diego Fwy I-405). Follow LaCienega Blvd. north for about 20 minutes (it becomes a divided highway as it passes through oil drilling fields then settles into a commercial stretch before becoming Beverly Hills' Restaurant Row.) As you approach the hills, you'll get to Sunset Blvd and you'll be right close to the Roxy.
I strongly recommend Burbank airport for many reasons. Car rentals there are cheaper than at LAX and because the airport is much smaller, it takes very little time to get in and out from there. (I landed there today at 2 pm and was at my parents' car driving out the airport lot less than five minutes later.)
From Cookie:
To go from LAX to the Roxy could take anywhere from 1/2 hour (absolutely no traffic) to 1 1/2 hours (rush hours.) I would plan on the actual drive time taking an average of around an hour. The rush hour for driving north on the 405 would be in the morning. If your flight is in the afternoon or evening, you should be driving against traffic.
DIRECTIONS FROM LAX: Take Century Blvd. west approximately 3 miles to the 405 north. Take the 405 north to the Sunset Blvd. exit, which is located just south of the Hollywood Hills. (If you go over the hills, you've gone too far.) On Sunset Blvd., make a right (east) and drive about 4 miles to the Roxy. It will be on your left. (Sorry I don't have the street address handy. However, it's located on the Strip next to The Rainbow, and is one block west of the Whiskey-A-Go-Go.)
From the Burbank airport, the directions are more complicated and you have to deal with three major commuter freeways instead of one. I've never actually driven that route in its entirety, but MINIMUM drive time would probably be somewhere in the neighborhood of 1 hour (maybe a bit less.) With traffic, it could be considerably more. I would allow at about 1 1/2 hours average drive time--just to be sure you aren't late. The rush hour time for driving west on the 134 and 101 freeways is in the evening. (Which is another reason why I would recommend LAX if your flight is in the evening.)
DIRECTIONS FROM BURBANK: From the airport, you need to take Hollywood Way south until you hit the 134 freeway. Take 134 west to the 101 west (also posted as the Ventura freeway.) Take 101 west to 405 south. This will take you over the hills to the Sunset Blvd. exit. make a left (east) and drive about 4 miles to the Roxy. It will be on your left.
Again, these times depend on what time of day, and whether or not there are any accidents on the freeway. If it's raining, tack on an addition 1/2 hour minimum. (People here don't know how to drive in the rain, so they just smash into each other instead of slowing down.)
Ideally, I would recommend flying into LAX, but if you get a
substantially cheaper flight into Burbank, and you have enough time
before the show, it would be worth it. Besides, that way you also get to
view BOTH the beautiful San Fernando Valley AND Hollywood!
Thursday - Saturday, December 31, 1998 thru January 2, 1999 The Bottom Line does not accept phone reservations or credit card orders.
Tickets are available for cash in person at the box office.
You can also order tickets through the mail using a money order or certified check.
The amount should be the price of the tickets plus 50 cents handling fee.
They prefer to hold the tickets at the box office, but if you want them mailed, you can include a SASE.
I was told to include a daytime phone number & address with the order & to call them in about a week
to make sure the money order arrived safely.
The Bottom Line still has the long tables set against the stage. Definitely a seated show.
Seating is first come, first serve. If you have tickets to both shows, you can usually stay inside
& claim your seat before the doors officially open for the late show, so it pays to come early
& it also pays to attend both shows if you can.
Each Night will have 2 Shows.

Friday, December 4, 1998 Clinton is both a town and a township (the town located inside the
township) in the general vicinity of Utica, NY, almost close enough to
be called of suburb of Utica if only Utica were a little bigger and
less boring :-)
To get there from DC, I would take I-95 to the NJTP to the Garden
State Parkway to I-87 north, aka the New York Thruway. Follow the
Thruway all the way to Albany and continue on I-90 west (still the New
York Thruway) to Utica. At the Utica exit, follow signs for 5/8/12
south & west, which should take you to "the arterial". Take the
arterial past Utica until it stops being a divided highway, and you
get to a really weird intersection, like the kind you find in Boston :)
Stay in the left lane on the arterial, and when you reach the weird
intersection get on route 12B, which will take you right into Clinton
town center, a small park with storefront-lined roads on either side.
Clinton's not a one-light town, but it is pretty small. Smaller than
Northampton. Almost everything of interest is right around the town
center.
So, just follow my directions, and when you reach Clinton Village,
look for the Church. I've never driven directly from DC to Utica, but
I estimate 8 hours. 9 if you don't speed, maybe worse if it's snowing.

of Utica on Route 12B. The section of Route 12B which passes on the east side
of the village green is called East Park Row and the venue is between nos. 9 and
10 on East Park Row. Look for the church that has a tall steeple.

7pm doors

Tickets are $15.
Tickets are "nearly sold out" at this point. The box office will open for business at 3pm on Saturday, and they suggest that people get there early to get tickets as they probably will sell out that afternoon.
If anyone sent in a mail order and has not yet received their tickets -
fear not. They're waiting at will call.
Moxy Früvous began in 1990 as a street performing band in Toronto. In
the early days they performed almost completely a capella, and developed
their knack for four-part harmony as well as a street-level guerilla
theatricality and audience rapport that remain a part of their live show
today.
Their lyrics are as challenging and diverse as their music, from humorous
to heartfelt, from whimsical to political, all infused with a sense of sly
intellectual fun. Their eclectic package is sewn together by a few common
threads that run throughout their music, such as soaring four-part harmony
in the best Beach Boys tradition, and unexpected instrumentation such as
banjo, accordion, melodeon, harmonica, and strings, usually on top of a
solid bass/drums/acoustic guitar combo.
Potential Früheads: come and hear about the great new FrüMiles Card for
frequent concert-goers!
From the website:
The Walkabout Clearwater Coffeehouse doors open at 7PM, at which time
you're welcome to join our "Teachabout", an informal songfest where our
People's Chorus teaches the audience some of our favorite songs. Arrive
early and be a music-maker yourself!
The formal concert starts at 8PM.
Coffeehouse perfomances occur in the auditorium of the Harvey School, in
Katonah NY, just a short ways North of White Plains. Easy-to-follow
directions:
* Find your way to the intersection of routes 684 and 35 (at the end of
the Sawmill Parkway).
* Go one block East on 35 to route 22
* Then about 1 mile south on Route 22.
* The Harvey School driveway, with its white signs for the school and
Coffeehouse, will be on your left.
* Park in the lot on your left, near the top of the hill, then follow
the green Coffeehouse signs to the auditorium.
Or, by public transit (last updated 12/8/96):
* Take the Metro-North Harlem line to Katonah.
* It's a 30-minute (uphill) walk or $5 cab ride to the Harvey School.
You do have to call the cab companies to get picked up at the station:
o Sam's Taxi (914) 423-4111
o Katonah Taxi (914) 232-4949
* The last train to NYC leaves Katonah at 11:43 PM. You might want to
ask the taxi company to pick you up at the Harvey School no later than
11:15PM, to make sure you don't miss the train.
Snacks, coffee, and soft drinks are available before the performance and
during intermission, along with literature from our "Activists of the
Month". Usually the performers will have copies of their recordings and/or
songbooks available as well.

Directions: once you get into the city, bear right and you will be steered
(sp?) toward Storrow Drive. There might even be signs for it, if you're
lucky. If not, just keep right. Once you're on Storrow, look for signs for
Kenmore Square. Exiting, turn right onto Commonwealth Avenue (the left side
of the fork in the middle of which there is a building with a red Boston
University plaque on it). Keep right while in the rigorous traffic of
Kenmore, so that you go down the rightmost of the three avenues that will be
in front of you, Comm. Ave. From there, it's a breeze: just follow
Comm. Ave. down through the BU campus; once over the bridge, you will see a
block of buildings on your right, then there's a big HUGE red brick armory on
the next block, and Paradise is on the block after that, a couple of doors
down from McDonalds. For parking, try either the parking meters on the side
of the road or make a right in front of McD's and try to park there. DO NOT
park in the BU spaces down at the end of the lot unless a BUPD guy okays it
first (the guard booth is right there). They're vicious.
Friday/Saturday, October 30/31, 1998 Happy news!!
I spoke with the folks at the Iron Horse, and they are happy to say yeP! to the
suggestion of renting out the Iron Horse for a couple of hours after the
Saturday 10/31 show for Fruheads to gather for a party!!
WHEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! Yip, yip, yippeeeeeeee!!!
So, for everyone coming to the show who wants to stay after for a couple of
hours, the Iron Horse will be open. There'll be some sort of tickets to
purchase, but they said it shouldn't be more than $5 pp, perhaps less. Details
will follow later (organization still occurring), but they said they could
offer a limited menu and keep the bar open, and most importantly, that means we
won't be pushed out, as so often happens after shows (not necessarily the Iron
Horse, who's always been nice about it anyways). It'll be open format, so
everyone can just chat and mingle, and meet up with all the people that you'll
otherwise perhaps only have a chance to see quickly before the show(s).
Especially with everyone being scattered far and wide due to the tight hotel
situation...
I figure, if the show starts at 7pm, as is scheduled, and may happen, since
they might still be set up from the night before, and ends around 9pm-ish, then
we'll have up til 11:30 or midnight to revel. It'll be all ages, just like the
show. The IH folks mentioned a costume contest (that they were going to
suggest anyways - more details later, I assume..).
So, part of the reason of sending this email is to get an idea of how many
people will be able to attend. (I just guesstimated when asking about it
theoretically.) Can you send, via email straight to me, your name, if you plan
on attending, as well as the names of any people coming with you who you think
will come, too? I ask for names so that if your friends send in names too, I
don't count you each twice. Thanks for helping me out!! Can't wait to see all
of you in Oct!!!
9/16/98:
This is NOT an invite party - it's open to everyone who comes
to the Saturday show, and you don't have to preregister. Tix for the
after-show party will be available at the door on Saturday night, so you don't
have to decide until then, and you don't have to do anything in advance. "the
list" was just a courtesy to the Iron Horse, and a way to convince them that
enough people would come to make it worth their while staying open after the
show (and hopefully to convince them not to book an act following Fruvous!).
So, as of now, you don't have to bother letting me know if you're going to come
or not. Although, you're free to email me if you just WANT to let me know!
It's been fun keeping the list, and seeing all these names of people I want to
meet, not to mention striking up short conversations with people... Thanks
again, and I look forward to meeting you all soon!

Directions to the Iron Horse:
From Zard Snodgrass (ZardSnod@aol.com):
Northampton is about 15 miles north of West Springfield on Interstate
91/US Route 5. Route 9 runs east-west through Northampton. Hadley and
Amherst are east of Northampton on Route 9.
Holyoke is the next town north of W. Spfld, and Northampton is the next
town north after Holyoke.
Riverdale Street in West Springfield is US Route 5. It is a divided
highway. I believe odd numbers are on the northbound side, and even
numbers are on the southbound side. Riverdale St. is easily reached by
exits 13A&B off Interstate 91, or exit 4 from Interstate 90 (the
Massachusetts Turnpike). 13A heads north at about the 1200 block, and
13B heads south from that same block.
Below is the actual list of lodging places. All seven-digit numbers are
in area code 413. 800 numbers are for reservations. Sorry, I don't know
if 800 numbers will work if you're calling from Canada.

Sunday, October 18, 1998 This show is promoted by Friends of Bob, a not-for-profit live
music cooperative of volunteers that puts on about 10 live shows a year
(www.dcwi.com/~fobob/Welcome.html). It's a cool DIY concept.
The Lafayette Brewing Company is a brewpub in downtown Lafayette.
Because it's a restaurant, it's an all-ages venue. The beer is superb!
Although they offer only a partial menu
for a Sunday night show, they'll be serving a really good selection of
soups and sandwiches beginning at 6:00pm when the doors open.
Friends of Bob don't usually do advance ticket sales, but for the
convenience of out-of-towners who wish to purchase tickets in advance, you
can mail order by check (made payable to Friends of Bob) at P. O. Box 59,
Battle Ground, IN 47920. Tickets are $6; please add $1 per order (i.e. $7
for one ticket, $13 for two tickets, etc.). Include an address and phone
number and say whether you want the tickets mailed to you or held at the
door.
The opener is Jason Wilbur, who will play a solo set. Jason is the
lead guitarist in John Prine's band (and has played also in Carrie
Newcomer's and Hal Ketchum's bands). He has a really good CD out on Flat
Earth Records--Lost in Your Hometown.
The show will begin promptly at 7:30 and be over at around 10:00.
DIRECTIONS FROM INTERSTATE 65
Get off I-65 at the State Road 26 exit and drive west towards
Lafayette. Stay on S.R. 26; after a few miles of urban sprawl you'll be in
the older part of the city and will notice that you are crossing numbered
streets; at Ninth Street turn north for one block; turn west onto Main
Street and the Lafayette Brewing Company is 3 blocks away at 622 Main--it
has a green awning outside a large brick building. Parking should be easy
since this is Sunday.

WNKU is sponsoring a CD release party from 6 to 8 (I'm not
sure where, but certainly nearby) with snacks and music by a very talented
local musician named Roger Klug. The CD is another fund raiser for the radio
station and includes a mix of songs by artists that the station plays - i.e.
artists that most people don't know - yet. Roger Klug himself released a CD
last year that I would guess most fru fans would enjoy. I would recommend
checking him out.
The CD release party is open to the public. The CD release party, for our 3rd WNKU Exit 89 CD, will be in the band
rehearsal room adjacent to Greaves Concert Hall, just a few steps from the
lobby of the hall where the band will be performing.

This club is actually located in Urbana, not Champaign. For those unfamiliar with the area,
Urbana is conveniently located adjacent to Champaign (they are for
most practical purposes the same town)
Interesting setup. It's a movie theater, but there are rows ripped
out in front of the stage to form a dancing/standing/moshing area. There
are still seats on the main floor, and there's also a "balcony" that will
hold between 150 and 200 people.
The club is on the east side of Goodwin, and that's where most of the decent
(on-street) parking is.
Directions:
Coming in from the North or South on I-57, take the exit for I-74 East
into Urbana. Coming from the East or West, you should already be on
I-74. Get off at Lincoln Ave and go South. It's easy to tell if you
are going the wrong way on Lincoln because if you are, you'll see
nothing but corn. Okay so now you're heading south on Lincoln,
looking at buildings (and still some corn too). Take that a couple
miles to Green Street (it's a light) and turn right (there are both an
Amoco and a Mobil station on this corner). Turn left at the next
light (Goodwin Ave). The Canopy is just past the first stop-sign on
the left. Parking should not be all hard to come by.

Martyr's is on Lincoln Ave., just south of Irving Park Road. Want directions? Easy: If you're at O'Hare, travel I-90 east (which is actually south) to Irving Park Road, take a left at the *second* light off the exit. Drive several miles to a big 6-way intersection (Irving Park, Lincoln, and Damen). Damen is at 2000 west, so you can follow the addresses. Make a 135-degree right turn onto Lincoln (not a 90-degree right onto Damen). Martyr's is a few blocks down on the left, 3800-something.
Martyr's is south and west of the Riviera, but both are within a few miles of each other on the North Side.
Easiest directions to get there: from the Kennedy Expressway (I-90/94) take
the Addison exit east. Drive several miles east on Addison. Take a hard left
turn after going under the railroad tracks onto N. Lincoln. Martyrs will be
about 2 1/2 blocks northbound, on the right hand side.
From Ticketmaster:

The venue will be Louis' Pub on the U of S campus. Some Louis' shows are all-ages, but the Fruvous show probably won't be. You don't have to be a student to go.
Louis' is a nice, small (for the university's size) campus pub with a good but sometimes cramped dance floor. It's in the downstairs of the Memorial Union Building (MUB), and has a nice big green canopy sign over the front door. Very easy to find once you get onto the campus. The prices aren't bad and if you drink beer, Rickard's Red is available.
If you arrive on campus early, the Place Riel building, a 90-second walk
from the MUB, has a downstairs food court (A&W, Taco Time, Treats) and
video arcade. In the downtown (cross the University Bridge, go down to
3rd Avenue, then turn left) you'll find some really good coffee shops
and restaurants, as well as the Midtown Plaza on 1st Avenue - a nice, if
somewhat conventional, mall with a good food court.

The Birchmere
3901 Mount Vernon Avenue
Alexandria, VA
703-549-7500
tix $15
Directions (thanks to Zard): Take 95 south until the 95/495 split south of Baltimore (closer to
DC). 495 should be toward College Park, while 95 will say Richmond. Take
495 - it's a right exit, and you just stay all the way right until you
merge onto the Beltway (495). Follow that all the way around to Virginia
(you'll cross a big bridge over the Potomac), stay right, and take the
first exit in Virginia - George Washington Parkway. Stay right. (Don't
take any parkway exits until you're actually in Virginia.) Follow the
Parkway quite a ways - you'll come near DC, you'll have the river on your
left, go past Rosslyn, Key Bridge exit, and then soon you'll see
monuments, etc. on your left, and then you'll see a sign for 395 south, a
right exit. Take it and merge onto 395 south. Lanes appear and
disappear, so stay kind of central, and then shortly thereafter you'll see
an exit for Shirlington/Glebe Road. Stay right as you take the exit - it
breaks into two, and you want Glebe Road, which'll be the right lane.
BUT, then get in the left lane, since you want to take a left at the light
at the end of the exit. That puts you on Glebe Road east/south. Stay in
the left lane. At the first light, the road bends to the left - follow
it. You go through another light, and at the 3rd light (Mount Vernon
Ave.) take a right. Go through 3 more lights, and just after the big
"Parts USA" on the left, you'll see "Birchmere Entrance" and a parking lot
- all on your left. There you are!!

Ocean City Music Pier
Ocean City, NJ
special guest to Buckwheat Zydeco
Tickets: $15
Start time: 8pm
Box office #: (609) 525-9248 or (609) 525-9249
From Philadelphia, take Rt. 76 across the Walt Whitman bridge to the
Atlantic City Expressway. Keep on the expressway past the Frank Farley
Service Plaza and the dollar toll, and look for exit 7S onto the Garden
State Parkway southbound. From the GSP, take exit 30 into OC, crossing the
9th Street Bridge (note: this is the bridge that Eddie plunged over in
Eddie and the Cruisers) and cross into OC. The Pier is on the Boardwalk at
around 8th St., and Ocean City is only a few blocks wide at that point, so
once you're in town over the bridge you can aim for one of the public lots
at the end of the street or on Boardwalk and be well within walking
distance.
If you miss exit 30 or are coming from the south, exit 25 works, too. Just
turn left on West Avenue after passing Yesterday's tavern/package store and
the bridge...West Ave is the second light, past the WaWa. Take West to 9th
St. Going to Exit 25 will cost you a 35 cent toll on the GSP, but it does
take you past the cooling tower of the power plant if you want an
opportunity to burst into song. :D
Another note: Ocean City is a dry town, so don't look for a beer at the
show.

WXPN members will get a special seating area.
For those of you not from the Philly area, Penn's Landing is sort of a
harbourfront area in Center City along the Delaware River. And I can
vouch for how incredible this lineup is. Come Saturday AND Sunday if you
can. But if you can only make the Sunday show, come early. Francis
Dunnery is great.
While parking is *technically* available at Penn's Landing. Don't count
on it. The parking lots at Penn's Landing are small to begin with and
it's a popular weekend destination even when there ISN'T a festival. You
*might* be able to find parking on the streets south of Market. If so,
obey the signs regarding when parking is free and when it's not. Police
WILL ticket your car. And by the way, if you can't find parking by the
time you drive to South Street, give up. It's not worth the walk to park
south of South Street.
For a great map of the area, including parking garage locations, visit:
http://www.libertynet.org/mmp/maps/historic.html
The map makes that area look bigger than it is. Everything shown is
within walking distance.
And between you and me ;-), my favorite garage is located at 2nd and
Lombard (a block North of South Street, on the right between 2nd and
3rd). You park your own car and keep the keys, and it's far enough away
from the festivities so you have a good chance of keeping away from the
majority of the traffic. AND you can stop in at one of the South Street
bars or restuarants to spend a final few moments with your friends
before you head home.
Visit my website (http://philadelphia.miningco.com) closer to festival
date...I'll have an article with the latest information.

It's at the Columbia Festival Lakefront, across from the mall and behind the construction.
The best place to park would be at the mall by the JCPenny, and then walk over the bridge.
Directions:
From the DC area... I-95 or the Baltimore-Washington Parkway north to
Maryland Route 32 West (sign will say either Columbia or Clarksville).
Follow Route 32 to U.S. 29 North, go about two miles - follow signs for
"Town Center." The exit will be Broken Land Parkway. Follow Broken Land to
what I think is the second light you'll come to, it's a major intersection
with a big office building on the far right corner. Turn right there
(that's Little Patuxent Parkway) and pass two traffic signals. There are
parking lots on the right side next to the lake front, which is where the
festival stage is. (Look for Clyde's Restaurant if you get lost.)

Moxy Fruvous returns to Louisville, KY for a fourth time on Monday, June
22. The venue is a fine little restaurant called Clifton's Pizza Company
(this was a late booking, but rather than just pass by Louisville on their
way home from Arkansas the fellows agreed to play this cozy venue). Show
time is 8 p.m. (folks traveling from certain parts of Indiana should
remember there is a time change between Indy and Bloomington and
Louisville). Tickets are $10.00. Since the room only holds 100, anyone
traveling a distance should let us know soon so I can hold tickets aside.
Clifton's is located at 2230 Frankfort Avenue in Louisville; their phone
number is (502) 893-3730.
The restaurateurs tell me they may supplement their usual menu with
special selections of food items mentioned in Moxy tunes (hmmm: maybe
chocolate eclairs, basil, endive, parmesan shrimp live....).
This show is open to people of all ages.

Folk Heroes of Canada", Moxy Fruvous began as wildly theatrical, vocal based street performers. "Creatively closer to American artists like
Phish or REM, the music is intricate and intriguing, combining drums, bass, piano, acoustic guitar, accordion, banjo, harmonica and any number

"Family Fun Day", an event commemorating the 10th anniversary of the National Gallery, and it runs from 10am to 6pm
In case of rain, they'll be moved inside
Directions:
The Gallery is located at the corner of St. Patrick and Sussex. It's
right downtown, right by the river, and kind of hard to miss. It's a big
glass building with sort of a dome on one side and two gigantic
"Picasso" banners on the front.
On to more general directions: Sussex, as any squeegie kid can tell you,
crosses Wellington St.(where the Parliament buildings are) where
Wellington ceases to be Wellington and turns into Rideau St., that is,
right before the Rideau Center, which any of our polite squeegie kids
can direct you to, unless they're already there. From there, you would
turn left on Sussex, go past the United States embassy-to-be (also hard
to miss -- BIG CRANES), Murray Street, (or perhaps park on Murray, if
you're so inclined -- sorry, I couldn't help that) and you're there.
It's really so simple that it's difficult to explain.

definitely a good place to go instead. They've got a large garage,
and parking is $4 for the day. You can then take the red line 3 stops
inbound, to Harvard Square.
To get to Alewife, take I-95 to Route 2. If you're coming from the
north on Route 93 or 3, that would be 95 south. If you're coming from
the south or west on Route 90 (Mass Pike), 3, or 95, take 95 north.
When you reach route 2, go east. Route 2 east is a divided multilane
55mph highway all the way into Cambridge, then changes to a city
parkway sort of road. The Alewife exit is right at the point where
this change happens, immediately before the first traffic light. The
big garage should be clearly visible on your right side. If you reach
the traffic light, you've gone too far. Don't worry, just keep going
through two more lights and you'll reach a rotary (MA-speak for
traffic circle) where you can turn around and take 2 west back to
Alewife.
Traffic detours will be in effect for May Fair. Closed between 7am -
7pm are: Mass. Ave. southbound from Church Street; JFK Street from
Mt. Auburn Street; and Brattle Street to Church Street. Memorial Drive
will also be closed to vehicle traffic for the Walk for Hunger. We
recommend taking the MBTA to May Fair. Take the RED LINE to Harvard
Station.

turn. (Christy's on the corner on your right...) Turn right. Go straight
past a church on your left. (Don't turn left right after the church.) You
will be passing frats on your right. Take your next left, onto College St.

tix are $15 in advance and $16 at the door
7pm
Moxy is headlining
Some of the other acts: Jim's Big Ego, June Rich, Peter Mulvey, Kevin So, Jess Klein
Directions to the venue:
By T--take the red line to Davis. Look for a
movie theater. it's really obvious. this is the easy way. (the show will
be in the largest room in the theater. they do show movies in there, too,
when they don't have concerts.)
By car: if you insist on not taking the T... Davis Square is a pain to
drive. If you don't know the area, buy a map. you will get lost. Just
because I claim a street has a name doesn't mean you'll be able to find a
sign anywhere to prove it.
From the Masspike: take the MassPike to the Allston/Cambridge exit (exit
18).
After paying the toll, the ramp splits. follow it right (Cambridge). Go
straight through the lights and across the river. This puts you on River
Street. River Street takes you to Central Square, then becomes Prospect
Street. Keep following prospect street until you get to Hampshire Street
(landmark: KFC). Turn left on Hampshire Street. Follow Hampshire Street
through Inman Square. Hampshire Street becomes Beacon Street. Keep going.
Eventually, the street takes a hard right curve, and ends at a light.
That's Somerville Ave. Turn right. You'll see a Gulf station on your left.
You want to turn left at that Gulf station. You'll make about a 150 degree
turn onto Elm Street. Follow Elm street until it makes you turn right.
That's Grove Street. Follow it until it ends (not very far). Turn left
onto Highland Ave. You're now on Highland Ave driving towards Davis square.
Start looking for parking. This is the part where you wish you had taken
the T. (Mapquest will tell you to go through Harvard Square and up Mass
Ave. In general, any route involving either of Harvard Square or Mass Ave
is not one you want to take if you can help it.)
From I-93 South: Take I-93 South to exit 30 (28/38 Mystic Ave, Somerville).
Take a right at the end of the ramp. This puts you on Mystic Ave north. Go
a little under half a mile to Harvard Street. Take a left onto Harvard
Street. Follow Harvard Street until you come to a Big Rotary. You want to
end up on College Ave, headed in about the same direction as you were headed
on Harvard Street. That amounts to about 2/3 of the way around the rotary.
College Ave will take you right into Davis Square. Start looking for
parking. This is the part where you wish you had taken the T.
From I-93 North: Take I-93 North to exit 29. the ramp splits. take the
left fork ("28/38 Somerville"). you come to a light. you want to go more
or less straight through the light, which will take you under I-93. You
want to end up on 38 North, which runs parallel to I-93, on the left side of
the highway as you're driving north. You'll also want to immediately cut
across traffic, because you're turning left at the first light you come to
(Temple Street). Follow Temple until it ends (two lights). Turn right onto
Broadway. Follow Broadway until you come to a Big Rotary. You want to end
up on College Ave westbound, which is about equivalent to a left turn from
Broadway. But you end up going most of the way around the rotary to get
there. College ave will take you right into Davis Square. Start looking
for parking. This is the part where you wish you had taken the T.

Fruhead Convention
1-5pm on Saturday afternoon at the Clarion Essex Park Hotel - Essex Lounge
All Fruvous fans are welcome. There will be videos shown, raffles of rare Fruvous items, walking tours of Fruvous landmarks,
and other activities.
Fruvous will be stopping by at 4pm to do a short acoustic set.
Thanks to Zard Snodgrass & Laurie Addenbrooke for the following preparations/info:
Here it is folks - a location has been decided upon, thanks to Jude checking
things out (like the meeting rooms!). It seems that this place provides a good
meeting space, is centrally located (to the metro and Queen/Yonge Streets), and
has decent priced rooms. They also don't seem too put-out about hosting a
large contingent of Fruheads. All the info you need should be listed below.
I'll put out one plea - if you're booking a hotel, try this one first! If we
fill a certain number of rooms (as per the info below), we get the meeting
room free. Book soon, or you may not have space. Also, after Feb. 5, they
won't hold the cheaper rate.
Hotel: Clarion Essex Park Hotel
We are asking for a $5-10 donation (upon arrival at the room the
day of the convention) to cover the cost of the room (if we don't book
enough rooms), TV/VCR rental, snacks, raffle tickets, etc.
location: 300 Jarvis Street (near Carlton Street)
phone: 416 977-4823
or: 800 567-2233
fax: 416 977-4830
Guest rooms: $74 per night for two people (all Canadian funds) + 12% tax
extra people: $10 each + 12% tax
parking: $12 per vehicle per 24 hours ($7 for daily parking) + 7% tax
facilities: restaurant, health club w/indoor pool (bring those
bathing suits!), whirlpool, sauna, steam room, exercise room, billiards,
table tennis, and squash court
Booking conditions: They are holding 15 rooms. On Feb. 5, they'll release any
unsold rooms, and the rate will go up. So BOOK EARLY if you want a
room, and if you want the good rate!
reserved block of rooms is under "FRUHEAD CONVENTION" - ask for it by name!!
This room holds 75-85 people. It is free if we book 20 guest
room/nights at the hotel (a "room-night" meaning that if we get 10 rooms
x 2 nights each, we've met our quota). If you want to be near a lot of
Fruheads, please make (or change) your reservations to the Clarion. We'd
really appreciate your help (as it lessens the financial burden
to be covered by donations). Any money above and beyond that needed for
the room, supplies, and (very basic-they don't allow outside food/drink) snacks
will be donated to the Fruvous "communications budget" going toward Fruvous
Quill expenses and FDC.
You have to call or fax to reserve your room yourself. We have
only set aside a block of rooms so we will all be on the same floor or
area of the hotel. Just say you're with the "Fruhead Convention". If you need
help with roommates, please post to the newsgroup to see what can be arranged.
Sarah Hoffman (I think I spelled that right), long time Fru-head from Toronto, has agreed to help out at the convention by maintaining a list of who will be attending, arrival times, e-mail addresses, etc...
This will be by no means a complete list, since obviously some people don't have e-mail or ng access. It will give us a good idea of how many people to expect, though. Sarah will check off people as they arrive, and also take care of a message board where people can leave notes for others.
So, send info about yourself (e-mail address, name, time of arrival, etc...) and also about anyone you know who's coming and that might not have a means of e-mailing Sarah.
Please send ALL correspondence about this to: hedgehog1@bigfoot.com with the subject "Convention List"

Click here for Ticketmaster Canada information
Click here to read a letter from Jian regarding this show
From MFHQ: Lee's Palace is near Bloor and Bathurst, west of Yonge
St. If your hotel is on Yonge then you're on the Yonge subway line, and
can transfer to the Bloor line. The Sheraton would also be a close walk
to the subway. If you're near the Eaton Centre, you will be close to
shopping, Queen St W (my neighbourhood!) which has lots of neat shops,
the Art Gallery of Ontario, Kensington Market, etc. There is tons to
see and do although you may want to plan on indoor activities in
February!
From Emily Garrett: Just thought I would pass along some ideas to suggest to people visiting
Toronto in February. We actually visit Toronto just about every year
over that same weekend in February and find lots of activities - both
indoor and out. We stay at the Sheraton Centre (they ususally have
special cheaper rates that time of year) and make great use of the
indoor/outdoor pool (yes, outdoor in winter) The vapor steaming up off
of the pool's surface combined with the twinkling lights from the
surrounding buildings and the sky makes for quite a magical effect
especially at night. We also bring our ice skates and skate in Nathan
Philips Square and/or at Harbourfront. There are also many wonderful
museums like the ROM or the Ontario Science Centre. We are not much for
shopping or sports, but there is Eaton Centre, all those underground
shopping areas and the Skydome etc. Our favorite restaurants are Le
Marche and Organ Grinder. There is also always lots of theater to take
in - we have seen Phantom, Clouds, Midsummer Night's Dream, Closer Than
Ever, La Cage etc. I hope this is helpful and we are very happy that you
picked "our" Toronto weekend to have a Fruvous show in Toronto. What
luck!
Press Release:
Ontario Coalition for Abortion Clinics
The Ontario Coalition for Abortion Clinics (OCAC) was founded in 1988. It worked with Dr. Henry Morgentaler to set up the first free standing abortion clinic in Ontario, and challenged the federal abortion law which severely restricted women's access to abortion.
OCAC organized a broad based pro-choice movement which held rallies, marches, symposiums and other events which actively involved women and men in this important campaign. As a result of these efforts, the Supreme Court of Canada overturned the federal law on January 28, 1988.
OCAC went on to wage a fight against a new law proposed by the Mulroney government. This was defeated. Five free standing clinics were fully funded in Ontario, and clinics were established in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.
The struggle was far from over. Three doctors have been shot in the last four years in an attempt to intimidate physicians. The Morgentaler Clinic in Toronto was destroyed by an explosion. "Operation Rescue" tried unsuccessfully to shut down the clinics by physical blockades.
Because of the need for more physicians OCAC is working to ensure that medical schools provide training in the provision of abortions. It does speaking engagements in high schools and universities on the issue. It holds forums and press conferences. It has mounted a campaign to maintain funding for birth control centres in Ontario, and to stop the hospital closures which will reduce the number of abortions available to women.
The struggle for reproductive choice is ongoing.

lucky. If not, just keep right. Once you're on Storrow, look for signs for
Kenmore Square. Exiting, turn right onto Commonwealth Avenue (the left side
of the fork in the middle of which there is a building with a red Boston
University plaque on it). Keep right while in the rigorous traffic of
Kenmore, so that you go down the rightmost of the three avenues that will be
in front of you, Comm. Ave. From there, it's a breeze: just follow
Comm. Ave. down through the BU campus; once over the bridge, you will see a
block of buildings on your right, then there's a big HUGE red brick armory on
the next block, and Paradise is on the block after that, a couple of doors
down from McDonalds. For parking, try either the parking meters on the side
of the road or make a right in front of McD's and try to park there. DO NOT
park in the BU spaces down at the end of the lot unless a BUPD guy okays it
first (the guard booth is right there). They're vicious.

Directions:
217 East Houston Street, between Ludlow and Essex.
Essex IS Avenue A - the name changes at Houston so it's Ave A. above, Essex
below. The club is on the south side of E. Houston, just West of Essex.
Subway: closest station is the 2nd Avenue stop on the F train. The Essex
Street stop on the J, M and Z is also relatively close, but the area
is not one I'd recommend walking through by choice. The F train stop
is very close. Get yourself to the south side of the train and you'll
find there's an exit at the corner of 1st Ave - making it a very short walk.
At worst it's about 3 minutes.

Fruvous will prob. be second, co-billed with Laura Love. Moxy may be closing the show.
Directions (thanks to Zard): Take 95 south until the 95/495 split south of Baltimore (closer to
DC). 495 should be toward College Park, while 95 will say Richmond. Take
495 - it's a right exit, and you just stay all the way right until you
merge onto the Beltway (495). Follow that all the way around to Virginia
(you'll cross a big bridge over the Potomac), stay right, and take the
first exit in Virginia - George Washington Parkway. Stay right. (Don't
take any parkway exits until you're actually in Virginia.) Follow the
Parkway quite a ways - you'll come near DC, you'll have the river on your
left, go past Rosslyn, Key Bridge exit, and then soon you'll see
monuments, etc. on your left, and then you'll see a sign for 395 south, a
right exit. Take it and merge onto 395 south. Lanes appear and
disappear, so stay kind of central, and then shortly thereafter you'll see
an exit for Shirlington/Glebe Road. Stay right as you take the exit - it
breaks into two, and you want Glebe Road, which'll be the right lane.
BUT, then get in the left lane, since you want to take a left at the light
at the end of the exit. That puts you on Glebe Road east/south. Stay in
the left lane. At the first light, the road bends to the left - follow
it. You go through another light, and at the 3rd light (Mount Vernon
Ave.) take a right. Go through 3 more lights, and just after the big
"Parts USA" on the left, you'll see "Birchmere Entrance" and a parking lot
- all on your left. There you are!!
