I personally prefer the loud, electric, rock songs myself, but probably because I've had my fill of girls-with-acoustic-guitars. In a month, heck, a week, that opinion may change, though, so don't consider it written in stone. Mary futher asked: >Wouldn't it be great if she released a video of ALL of her acoustic >numbers in an unplugged session? I think that probably the majority of us would just like to see *ANY* video, at this point. A video compilation, a live concert/documentary video (ala the "new" Alanis video, or "Madonna: Truth of Dare") a compilation of Storytellers/Duets/Unplugged . . . just something! =========================================== Tim Dunker updated us on the autographed photo of MLE he is auctioning for the LA Shanti charity: >The auction goes on until August 1st 1997 and the highest bid till today >is 275 US $. Whoa. I thought MLE commanded a high price in the phony $$ on the Rogue Market! This has definitely exceeded any limit I might have had on placing a bid! ============================================= Finally, a visit to Pittsburgh's most popular "Everything Non-Mainstream" bookstore, St. Elmo's Books (why St. Elmo's, no one knows, has nothing to do with the film, we know that much) allowed me to peruse their bestsellers lists. In the following categories: 1. Women Authors 2. Women's Issues 3. Entertainment 4. Music 5. Biographies 6. Lesbian-Themed 7. Outwords (GLB Books) 8. Store-wide The number one book was. . .

We all know how risky it is to go out on a limb with our opinions but it was offensive. However, as I may disagree with what she says, I shall defend, her right to say it - what I'd like to contribute with regards to this attack however, is that we musn't forget that rap music has had a special effect on todays' culture - advertising, clothing, marketing, comic relief, sales, etc. and basically people of all colors are able to enjoy what it has to offer which is a GOOD thing. This cross-over appeal may actually help keep us (the human race) connected rather than apart. The fact of the matter is - it's an integral part of today's youth culture and people who were raised with rap back in the 70's when everyone said it was a fad which would go out as quick as a light are laughing all the way to the bank in the 90's, so we all better get used to it being around. So, careful-careful there Half-Pint asTrace and John pointed out before me, we are all different and thank goodness for that as holding the same tastes in dress style, personal style and music styles would be a bore. Your comments were unnecessary.

I've been a serious fan ever since... I've seen her five times in the last two years, and I twice flew to LA to see her play... and she keeps getting better! I have both of her early Atlantic CD's (Massive Blur, Willing to Wait), as well as some promos. She was one of several artists dropped by Atlantic during their 'purge' nearly two years ago, but Melissa has continued to play locally (LA) and occasionally tour. In the last year-and-a-half, she independently produced a tape (Maid Of Honor) and a live CD (Melissa Ferrick + 1). She finally has a new recording contract and her most recent CD (Melissa Ferrick + 1), independently produced and distributed by Hidden Water, has been completely re-mixed, and is available on her new label (W.A.R.)... a new bonus track has also been added, so if you already have MF+1, and you're a Ferrick completist like me, you may want to get the new version of her CD. Her new label is W.A.R.

I have to agree with Melissa doing MMMBOP! I could see her rollerblading around with the kids! Big Wide Smile! Laughing and singing! Heck! When I was at the beach I saw this video for the first time I thought it was a real feel good, happy song. Made this bear dance and sing! And I will stand up and say that I even bought the CD! Whoa! Yes, I did it! Seems we don't get enough happy anymore. I take it when I can and try to enjoy it for what its worth. As for what covers I would like to see Melissa cover: Hmmmmm! I still think "Thunder & Lightning" by Chicole Train. It's an oldie from the past. Or "One Way Out" by The Allman Brothers! Whew she just can't go out that front door! I can see her play with those eyes on that line. I have to agree with "Tell It Like It Is." This is one of my all time favortites. I guess that is all for now. I leave you all with this: Darkness is an easy thing to slip into, it comes everyday. But if we look until we truly see there is always one good thing in the course of the day that was good. If one looks into the window of their soul little things are found and bring a glow of warmth into the blackness within. As if when you turn out the lights and darkness is all around. If you stand still until your eyes become adjusted to the dark you can make out the furniture around you and instead of tripping over it you can re-arrange it without flipping one light on for help. Search out the goodness in your day and feel it when you know.

Your > comments were unnecessary. Anyone else find the second sentences of the above paragraph contradictory to the purported point of Lanette's post? I think that *that* comment was unnecessary. Halfpint *is* entitled to express her opinion -- and my reading of the post indicates to me that it was expressed as an opinion, not as rules for everyone else in the free world formulated by she-who-must-be-obeyed -- just as anyone else on the list is, within the bounds of good sense and good taste (and good grammar and spelling, of course). How can we have any diversity if only opinions that are "correct" can be expressed? And how can we as listers improve unless we can subject those opinions to public discourse, and perhaps change our minds? Anyone? On to other topics (NMEC unfortunately, but relating to artists who have been frequently discussed on this list) ... This past week Sarah and I have been to two good concerts at London's Shepherd's Bush venue, Shawn Colvin and Ani di Franco. Shawn Colvin: In contrast to her previous concert at the Hanover Grand earlier this year with a full band, Friday's concert was just Shawn and her guitar. Everyone was spell-bound for the whole time (like Bruce Springsteen's concert at the Royal Albert last year). Note: Wouldn't it be great to see Melissa do a solo tour, with some solid new music for the 12-string? Unfortunately, Shawn seems to have taken her fashion advice from Melissa's wardrobe consultant -- her getup was indescribably horrible. Ani di Franco: Another great concert (the third in the past year) by the Righteous Babe, who's pulling bigger and bigger venues here in the big smoke. Every time we see Ani, we are surprised by how *sweet* she comes across as ... completely charming! She made a really funny transition about the toilets at Glastonbury -- too bad she won't be at Pride on Saturday! Unfortunately, no more good concerts over here for a while. Guess I'll have to spend my time wondering what colour to paint the ceilings. ;) And dressing up my "Action-Gal" collection of female rock musicians. Hmm, wonder what Melissa-Gal would look like in Amy-Gal's clothes?

Interestingly enough, this is not the first time that I've read someone call people who speak up for themselves about something he/she believes in a know it all - are all strong individuals in life going to be subjected to this unnecessary slander for having strong opinions? I reject this category. If anyone has an opinion that they care to voice to the rest of the world - express is - just expect the retaliation - that's all I'm saying - I have taken a risk by defending something I believe in knowing full well that it may not be very popular - Let's say, hypothetically, that someone had the guts on this post, to list an offensive comment regarding ME and her music - Whoa boy - would there be hell to pay and some MAJOR tension would develop as result - no? - well it's no different with NMEC. Again, I was personally offended by her comments TOWARDS the music as a whole - and if I may - it's HOW one comes across which makes all the difference - for example - if someone says to me - "I like your dress, it's very sexy!" I may be flattered but if they say "I Like your dress it really shows off your t__s and a__s sexily" ......well let's just say they wouldn't get a date! Well maybe.....just kidding : ) Finally, this ME List has been a great source of education in many ways and I felt a need to contribute a piece of myself on a topic raised by a fellow lister and for this I am not guilty - I have heard people become offended by comments with regards to religion or lack thereof, sexual slander and preference, whether ME sld. have the right to wear lavender and/or pink and/or combined, whether her fans sld. be living, eating, breathing MEC. You get the point. It's all great stuff and it should be in good taste but when it's not and something offends someone personally and the comment in their opinion is out of line KUDOS to all of us who have spoken up about it. P.S. As Half-Pint and I have discussed we both enjoy The Hansons and MmmBop. I personally think it would be kinda cute to see ME perform a duet with them, but the song would have to be CTMW. To everyone who thinks ME rules! HAVE A HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY 'cause I will!

Hey everyone I know what song I would love to hear melissa sing as a duet....Power of Two w/ the Indigo Girls. Or maybe Langauge Or the Kiss with the IG also. I was at work Wednesday and my boss got this new cd and started playing it. It was one of those dance cds where they change popular sounds and give them a dance beat.... About half way through the cd I relized that I was singing along to a Melissa Etheridge song, I Want To Come Over. All I have to say is that the beat did not go with the lyrics! I still sang along but I sure hope that Melissa never decides to go techno with here music....it would not be a good thing. Now i thought I would tell everyboby what I think the lyrics to Dance Without Sleeping mean at least what i think they mean. It starts off with "i don't want to talk about it, I have done enough i think....i don't want to spend more money..don't want another drink...i would scratch out all the images, if I had the chance...Don't ask me what I'm thinking can't you see I only want to dance...." I think there is someone that she does not want to talk about, someone she has already told everything to (I've done enough i think). She does not want to have to do something (drink or shop) to get her off of her mind. If Melissa had a choice she would erase all of the images that are burned into her memory, and hold her hostage. She does not wan to be asked what she is thinking because she is thinking about her....she just wants to be free and dance. Dancing is an exercise in freedom you can express your self in so many ways. No sleeping (dreams of her), no fear (to gone on and live without her), no messages (things that seem to be talking to you even though you know they are not. Like songs or books) Dance until she is numb, rid of all these feelings she is holding inside, until she thinks she can do anything. Melissa is so mad but at the same time understands all that has happened. She feels like a child at times not wanting to let go and feel the pain, she feels so alone. She knew all along but tried to decieve herself, and now she realizes that. Now the lines "Fathers hold on and they never go...mothers...lovers..." She is not talking about physically being there but the things they said and do. There memories are burnt into her mind and they will not let her go.

This is Leslie. *smile* I'm a delurker. *grins* I'm coming out to ask if anyone would be sooooo kind enough to possible make me a copy of "You Shook Me All Night Long" done by Melissa, but from AC DC. I would be greatly thankful seeing how I've never heard that song done by her and love AC DC's version. Also I think it would be a better song to dance to, seeing how Our Lady of Etheridge is belting out this tune. *grin* Soo......If anyone would be willing to do this, please email me privately at tchopkins@midamer.net As for the worst duet: I think that Melissa and Marilyn Manson would probably be the scariest. Can't you just see our idol wearing all those headgear and braces and pins and needles?? , but doesn't mind the leather. *smile* And for Pooh: You have the most beautiful choice of words. I bet you have written about a thousand books of poetry. *smile* You are a truly beautiful person!!! God bless you!! :) As for me: I will craw back to my world now.

Oh, I get it. Even though "she-who-must-be-obeyed" refers to halfpint's post on rap music, not yours, it was a slam on your post, because you're posting as both Lanette and halfpint. My mistake again. And where does the "know-it-all" come from ... not my post? I am personally persuaded, of course, that you *are* excessively burdened with knowledge. As for slander, it's false, malicious or wounding for me to suggest that one let other people have their say, no matter how much one finds that opinion "offensive"? I guess you got me again with that superior intellect, kiddo. > If anyone has an opinion that they care to voice to the rest of the world - > express is - just expect the retaliation - that's all I'm saying - I have > taken a risk by defending something I believe in knowing full well that it > may not be very popular - Let's say, hypothetically, that someone had the > guts on this post, to list an offensive comment regarding ME and her music > - Whoa boy - would there be hell to pay and some MAJOR tension would develop > as result - no? - well it's no different with NMEC. > Yeah, big risk that someone will point out the logical inconsistency of their words.

About the "we shouldn't do this because MLE (or whoever else) wouldn't want us to" attitude, I agree with Rhondda: how do we know and why should it matter? From what I've read, Melissa seems sincerely to care about her fans, but I'd like to think we'd treat each other with kindness and respect because we want to, not just because we think someone else (famous or not) would want us to. (I think that respect allows for differences of opinion and honest debate, though. And I find some of Kate's sarcastic posts very amusing.) As for needing someone to believe in, I think sometimes... I was going to say we all do, but let me just speak for myself. When YIA came out, my brother was living with AIDS. He was always my hero (and my friend), more than any "rock star" could ever be. There are times when no words can comfort, yet we seek comfort in words. I listened a lot to "Talking to My Angel" and the fact that Melissa gave to LA Shanti made the song that much more meaningful to me. No, she didn't know my brother and yes, it's only a song, but it helped me deal with losing him, especially since I heard so many "he asked for it" remarks - ignorant words that nonetheless stung. So if people need to believe in someone else for awhile, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. In time, hopefully, they'll rely less on idols and more on themselves for strength. Just my $.02. Hugsnkisis@aol.com (April) wrote: >Let's say you won Melissa at some kind of charity auction... I'd tell her the above story and say thanks.

A duet with the man who wrote "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" does sound scary, but he's written some great songs since then. "Listen w/o Prejudice" and "Older" are definitely worth hearing, and even if you don't like his music, he can sing! I think "Spinning the Wheel" would be a good MLE/GM duet.

Sorry. I'll remember the best I can with my slightly fried brain. Well, we left from clouds and rain in Seattle to make the trip over the mountains. It was like a caravan of people heading for the fest. Make that a pilgrimage. We had a few hour to wait before the gates opened. In the VERY hot desert sun. And silly me sez "I don't burn". Needless to say, I'd prefer going to work nude next week since clothes don't exactly feel good on my body right now ;-P. They finally sent a crew guy out with a Super Squirter thingie to hose us all off. Some poor girl in line passeed out from the heat and a bunch of crew guys from nowhere descended and carried her to the first aid station. They opened the gates about 1/2 hour before what was printed on the website. And just like cattle, we were shuffled in thru the gates for a cursory security check and to hand over our tix. Then it was time to race to the main stage to secure a decent spot (we had general admission tix). We were dead center to the stage up above the terrace (A GA grassy area that "steps" up from the reserved seating) about 2 rows back. PERFECT viewing with binoculars! Well, we rushed over to the 2nd stage because we saw Sarah was doing an acoustical set at 3:30. WRONG! (we were that is). She was also playing at The village Stage and so thinking we were misdirected, we rushed over there to hear her sing "I Will Remember You" and ummmmm....*brain fizzle*. Well, we crawled back to our Main Stage spot and as much as I wanted to hear the 2nd and 3rd stage performers, I was feeling VERY hot and a little ill so we stayed put and my lover went and got me some water. Sarah introduced Suzanne Vega who came on at 5:00 and I'm sorry, but I don't know her songs so I can't list them. She did play Luka and another hit off that CD. There was about an hour break b4 the next set and I would have LOVED to go see Cassandra Wilson but the heat still had me in its paws. Paula Cole was next and I think she won quite a few converts. I finally bought her latest CD. Her performance was not long enough. Played from both old and new CD and I'd list what I could remember but I just woke up and the new CD is in the Jeep and I just haven't had my morning coke yet (and still battling a sun headache). She sang all the hits we know like "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone". Really got our energy pumping. I must say, the kid has talent. Jewel, on the other hand, played far too long. Sorry for all you Jewel fans out there but personally, I would have preferred far more Paula Cole and alot less Jewel. She also ran about 15 mins over which had the Army of Ants in a tither trying to break down and set up in 10 mins.Needless to say, they just couldn't do it but it was very interesting to watch them do the equivalent of an Indy 500 tuneup on the stage. And then Tracy Chapman. TRACY!!!!! TRACYTRACYTRACY!!!!!! Oops, had a slight flashback to the show. She came out and sang her a cappela song (titled "Last night," I think...goes Last night I heard the screaming/Loud voices behind the walls...) The woman always seems so genuinely amazed at the response of her audience. Dadburn it...what DID she sing next? Her band took the stage behind her. Her songs were all off either her first CD or her last. And I must say, she had EVERYONE! I mean 20,000 people, boogying down to Gimme One Reason. And so then she recieves the first encore of the night. I can just imagine backstage. Sarah there saying "You need to go back out there dear". Tracy saying "Why? I thought we weree on a strict timeframe here" Sarah saying "Because if you don't, they will rip the place apart." So her band and her come back out and she does Revolution which we all sang the chorus too. It has to be something special to the artist to be able to hear your entire audience singing your songs back to you. I think Tracy stole the show. (And to all those wondering, she's been doing quite a bit of work on her speaking voice). And then it was time for the Army of Ants to appear to tear down and set up for Sarah's set. Sarah did a rather self-indulgent set and her percussion was WAAAY overboard. but maybe the self-indulgence payed off because now I want to be at the CD store when they release her next CD on the 15th, "Surfacing". She played ALOT of new stuff from that. She got the last encore of the night. By that time we thought we would beat the mad rush to the cars (HA) and for her encore, she sang Vox (dammit, I love that song). There is a full set list at the website. Anyway, you can check out more at http://www.lilithfair.com and all I can say is if the fair is coming anyplace around you, go see it. I think for next year, we'll take our vacations and wander around to see it. And hey, your money goes for a good cause. They and their sponsors are donating alot of money to RAIIN and LifeBeat along with local charities. Thats all. I'm hoping some1 else can fill in the details. For now, I need to do some work and maybe soak in a cool tub. - ---------- > From: ravnswng@earthlink.net > To: Etheridge@esosoft.com > Subject: *etheridge* idols and duets > Date: Sunday, July 06, 1997 3:55 AM > > Hello all.

Yep I must admitt that at first I didn't think their styles would mesh well either as Ann's voice is so....searching for the proper vocal analogy here...Hmmm not sure how to best put it with out coming off as implying that Melissa does not the possess the same qualities. Well here goes a try, please Melisters no flames for this one. My comparison is going to involve two other male rockers. I would say that Ann has a Robert Plant kind of strength to her voice and Melissa has a Bruce Springsteen sort of soul to her voice. As far as the guitar play of Nanc and Melissa...well they both ROCK but the best word for Nanc's play is "Intricate" and Melissa has that body penetrating rythym when she jams. I'm no guitar player but would love to hear from some of you who do play guitar on this one. Rockin Heaven Down...didn't think of that one, to quote a Saturday Night Live character..."Most Excellent Choice".

The weather was gorgeous...which was great since it gave Kate and I a chance to show-off our specially-made T-shirts. Borrowing someone from this list's idea (forget who, sorry - but thanks anyway!), on the back we had: "Win a toaster oven - Stop me and ask me how" and on the front we had "Official Recruiter", followed by the list addresses for Etheridge, Indigo Girls, and Ellen! And I must say, they were rather a success, even though it was only the Americans who got the toaster oven bit! And speaking of T-shirts, we spotted a Melissa T-shirt. Yay! (Can you tell we're somewhat Melissa deprived over here ?) It was the one where she looks like she has her finger up her nose - know the one ? Anyway, this was my first Pride (having only just come out last year, I was way too scared to go!) and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Highlights included: - - getting tipsy on Bucks Fizz before leaving the house ; - - a lovely bus driver who let us off the bus early, as we were stuck in traffic, and told us to enjoy the day (though I still can't figure out how he knew we were going ;) - - the *entire* march (and narrowly missing being spotted by my parents - not because they didn't know I was going, but because they would have loudly proclaimed to everyone around them "that's our daughter and her girlfriend, you know"!); - - sitting in a bar after 2 1/2 hours of marching, drinking beer, eating corn-chips & salsa and watching the rest of the parade to go by; - - a taxi driver who turned on the radio for coverage of the festival as he drove us there; - - and just generally soaking up the wonderful atmosphere. All in all a great, but all-too-short day, even though I found the guest stars a little disappointing (the "highlight" was the Pet Shop Boys..). Just a shame it was over way too quickly...roll on next year!

Morning Melisters! All this wandering around in the woods following tracks in the dirt from the forest floor and all the while twas my tracks hmmmm! Silly old bear! Know you were all missed. I had begun to believe the lights had been turned out and the dance hall closed! I have been dancing to the lights in the night skies! Best darn disco ball I have ever seen. Funny though it is no fun to dance on the keyboard alone. I kept tapping away only to hit a big rubber ball and have my posts bounced back to me. So it is good to be back in the saddle again! Where's my cowboy boots anyway???? I have an awareness in these days that I have come to appreciate and understand. I have been helping a good friend build a porch. It all started with nothing and became a deck then rafters were hung and now we have put up the plywood and shade has come to visit. The nights come to visit quite quickly when projects are being done in the evening hours as daylight seems to burn quite quickly. But there on a porch in the night sky as we sat around beneath the shelter we had built with our own hands. I know that the world needs more porches to solve our problems and that warmth is good but shade is needed as well. For at times such as these when you see what you can do with a hammer and a nail and all the pleasure you can bring when you help those you care for I see a glimpse of the old days when neighbors come to visit and pies and cakes stood beside hammers and nails and people saw the end to beginnings and warmth radiated in their hearts for what they had done which was simply helped one another. And this is as it should be. People helping one another. Laughter from the mistakes made and pleasure from the truth that no one will care about uneven cuts and off centeredness in a hundred years and that bears with hammers really can drive nails without hitting their thumbs every time!

Shirl the intrepid hurl girl showed up on my doorstep Friday afternoon sporting the newly revamped 300Z. That was enough to get things under way! After the usual initial gab fest, we grabbed a train and headed into the big bad city. Fighting off the growing crowd of holiday celebrators we made our first stop for the obligatory Mean People Suck toast. A lovely young lady behind the counter gladly clicked our picture for posterities sake. Onward we went in search of "stuff". Pretty much didn't find what or where we were looking for, nothing new in my book, but had a great day to walk the streets of Manhattan. Eventually we made it down to the village where Shirl has finally broken into the ranks of Butch in Training. If she EVER uses the line shy & demure again, pull out this post as repudiation! We were having beers at my favorite pub, The Slaughtered Lamb, and gabbing when Shirl felt the call of nature so she headed for the onepersonatatime restroom. I had visited it previously and had no problems. It seems Shirl was feeliing her oats this day. Instead of a quick poke at the soap dispenser to clean up her hands, Shirl hauled off and punched the thing silly sending it flying through the air and into the trash can. She was laughing histerically when she came out, I couldn't understand a word she said. Eventually I figured it out and took a trip to the bathroom myself. Where once a soap dispenser had been on the wall was an empty spot. Sitting prominently in the garbage was the soap dispenser. I don't know how she managed this folks. Beware! Shirl is going on a rampage trying to earn her "butch badge" these days and the results are not quite what any of us have been led to believe. Mauling soap dispensers and actually leaving her curling iron at home. You used to be able to count on a fem being a fem. What is this world coming to? DSD - back to the fog of work and Shirl induced confusion ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 13:12:27 -0500 (CDT) From: "Christy G.

Hello... Okay, I have another CD that I need to sell... I know a lot of you think I "Must Be Crazy" for selling my Melissa CD's, but I have been "Talking To My Angel"... and they said that it's all right... (sorry for the play on words, I couldn't help myself) ;) This particular CD I will be taking bids on... Kinda like and E-mail auction... This is probably going to be a crazy thing, but I think it's the best way to do it... The CD I am selling is an AUTOGRAPHED copy of "Yes I Am". It has Melissa's signature on the front CD cover... I have only taken it out of the jewel case once... So, it's in MINT condition... Normally I wouldn't sell this CD, because it *is* signed by Melissa. But When I met Melissa, she signed something for me, so I really have not become attached to this CD... If you are interested in this CD, please send me an e-mail with your bid... I will CUT the bidding OFF on July 20th... The highest bidder will get the CD... I start the bidding at $30... How is that?? Thanks for listening and thanks in advance for your help... I don't think anyone anticipated life being so expensive... I am just thankful that I have the things to sell, to people that will buy them... I guess angels are everywhere...

Later on the regular sex appeal show they showed YLS. Now I am really missing ME and wishing for more :( Just thought you all would be interested.

Yep, she's versatile, but I think it's a pity she picked some other more questionable material for Drag - concept albums can be tricky. Let's ponder for a moment what kind of "concept" album Melissa would come up with, shall we?...;-} Let's take this a step further, if we dare and consider what topic would she choose to explore in depth, using her proven songwriting skills? Surely whilst she's off the road, she has plenty of time on her hands when not bottle feeding or changing Bailey to write? Would Melissa, with new found insight through her shared parenthood, choose social issues a-la Indigo Girls? Or would she revert to Red Album angst and relationship themes? She's already attempted to broaden her musical topics through touching on social/political/personal themes (imho) with TWIO, ICHBY and even 2001, Testify and others. Maybe she could do a conept ablum about cars/driving, a topic which in the past has provien extremly poular with her fans? Chick magnets? Jeeps, trucks, Hondas, BMW's and even the humble Toyota Camry (stationwagon) (which is what I drive)? And btw, Harley <"Lady Clergy"> said : >I have a hard time with some of Nancy's music. Her hands are smaller than >mine and I just can't play some of those chords! She amazes me completely! > Melissa and her together would be a dream. I agree that Nancy W and Melissa E together would be a guitarists dream. And about your comment regarding smaller hands, I believe (according to that old Acoustic Guitar magazine article) Mel's Ovations at least (I don't know about the other guitars she plays now) are specially built with shorter necks and I believe smaller frets for *her* smaller hands. ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 20:56:23 -0500 From: "D.

Perhaps it was the sound of the hoot owl in the nearby oak tree which caught me in its spell and set my mind to pondering. Perhaps it was the deep sigh of love whispering on the breeze that caught my heart and perked up my ears telling me to stop, be still and listen little bear. Somewhere between the sun setting for the day and the quarter moon rising thoughts of past pleasures set my heart to pondering. I have been accused of having a mind that never sleeps and a spirit that drifts away on the clouds until someone takes my paw and says come here little bear and tell me, where'd you go. And at this time of night when the moon is high and only my shadow is there in the meadow illuminated by the light that I connect and ponderings just happen. And on this such night I see a child skipping rocks across a pond and counting the skips as they glide so gracefully to the nearest shore. And I see a little girl who has no toenails for they have been worn off from stubbing them so often. I see a jar of lightning bugs left beside a nightstand for one she loves so as not to have them awaken in darkness. I see a eggs resting on the ground as the killdear bird fakes harm and a broken wing to draw my curiousity further away. I see a heart so true and a love so pure in the moonlit night and sandy beaches as sand castles are washed away and are taken back to the oceans waves only to be rebuilt as they were the day before. Rebuilding and making love stong is what I see in lovers eyes as they tell stories on park benches and ears are turned into smiles and hugs into long and tender embraces. I see baggage and ghosts in closets whether it be in the rooms of small children or the houses of adults. I see hearts in armor and hearts out on their sleeves. Both wanting and needing the same thing. And my paw longs to reach out and join them together. For somewhere in the moonlight awaits love and the lonely hearted need only step out that door and stare at the quarter moon until you truly see. For feeling comes natural and once loves beacon is turned on there is safety at the shore. For loves light has no switch in which to turn it off and fear has no domain when the heart is full and gleaming like a diamond in the sun. Somewhere in the moonlight I see and feel these things and when I am quiet and still I hear: Come here little bear and tell me, where'd you go. ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 1997 23:43:09 -0400 (EDT) From: BravnCrazy@aol.com Subject: *etheridge* Lilith Concert Tickets For Sale...

In this case, my comments after my first posting in the thread *were* probably "unnecessary", as they were primarily of interest only to the one person involved. And, even if she took the discussion back to the list, I should have resisted the opportunity to respond to off-list personal attacks. Not a very good example for the new listers, unfortunately. I think it was either Rita Mae Brown or Florence King who said that if you ask a Southerner a simple question, you always never get a simple answer, but a long, complicated story involving a whole genealogical tree. Similarly, if you ask an academic a simple question, you get either a citation or a footnote. Here's one of my all-time favourite book passages: - --- "Know what, Rufe?" Eberly asked. "How's that, Eb?" "You know what the trouble is, Rufe?" "No, can't say as I do." "Trouble is head rot," Eberly said. There was a pause. Eberly had posited this thesis before. Not an althogether complex idea; nevertheless, it always took Rufus a few minutes to consider it. "Head rot, Eb?" [Rufus] repeated. [...] "An' it's spreadin'," Eberly said. "Spreadin'?" Rufus said. "How fast do you figure it's spreadin'?" "Mighty fast. And here's how," Eberly said. He drew out a pencil from the bar and began to draw on a napkin. "See," Eberly said, drawing a stick figure. "This here's the smart man, got it?" Rufus nodded. He got it. Eberly drew another figure. "And this here's the stupid man, got it?" Rufus nodded again. "Now, when the smart man talks to the dumb man, who wins the argument?" Rufus shrugged. "The dumb man, and that's how head rot spreads," Eberly said. Rufus pondered his line of reasoning. Eberly's mind could not be said to interest him, but his contradictions occasionally engaged his attention. "How you figure that?" "Well, a stupid man can't understan' a smart man, 'cause he's too stupid, right?" Rufus nodded, figuring this might be so. "So the smart man tries to get the stupid man to understan' what he's sayin', right?" Rufus nodded again. "Wal, if you're talkin' to somebody stupid, you got to get down to their level to explain it, and pretty soon if you talk to enough stupid people, you hang around that there level so long it catches up with you, and it's harder to go back up to your own. After while, you just stay down there 'cause you get tired goin' back and forth, back and forth. And that's how the smart man gets dumber, by talkin' and thinkin' stupid all the time. That's head rot, and that's how it spreads." Eberly drew a line between the two figures, one with the arrowhead pointing to the smart man, and one with the arrowhead pointing to the dumb man, thus completing his composition. Eberly clearly felt that these excursions into thought were works of art, for he carefully signed the napkin in the corner, Sheriff Eberly. Such efforts in diagnosing the national ill were sufficiently remarkable that the bartender, Silas Pond, would tack them up behind the bar. There were already three napkins devoted to the explanation of head rot. - -- From: Carol Hill, Amanda & the Eleven Million Mile High Dancer, 1985, pp. 42-44. Buy the book if you see it -- it's worth reading. Bye!

Hi All: I posted this once before, had some inquiries but no bids. I'd like to get at least what I paid (basically $30 a disk when I was collecting). If I don't get any interest this time through I'll just drop this and find some other way to raise money. What I have are some radio shows. For those of you who don't know what this means, when you listen to a "live" concert, or an interview, on your local radio station what you're usually hearing is a prerecorded program from a cd (used to be lps, back in ancient times ). All those national commericals are right there on the disk, the dj has to worry only about the local commericals. 1. 1 cd: Off The Record Special, show 93-11, for broadcast the week of March 8, 1993. Music & interview. Most of the cuts are from album, but there are acoustic versions of Place Your Hand, The Boy Feels Strange, and The Angels. Has the cue sheet. In a paper sleeve. 2. 2 cds: In Concert, show 93-36 for broadcast the week of August 30, 1993. Has the cue sheet. In paper sleeves. The concert is from Chicago, and I believe it's already been booted (I've been ill for a while and have not listened to what I have, I vaguely remember this as being the "Christmas is for Kids" concert). Set list, as best I could tell: Ain't It Heavy The Angels Similar Features No Souvenirs You Can Sleep While I Drive Keep It Precious I'm The Only One Bring Me Some Water Meet Me In The Back Like The Way I Do 2001 3. 2 cds: Rock & the Environment, hosted by Melissa Etheridge. MLE narrates this program which includes album cuts from and interviews with other artists. The cds appear fine and play, the case looks a bit worse for wear. =No cue sheet=. (this did not cost as much as the others) 4. 1 cd Up-Close (9401). For some reason they colored the cd for this one purple. It is also a 1993 show. Has cue sheet & paper sleeve. Music & interview, album cuts. amp ===========================++<>++========================= I don't know, I'm clueless! http://www.i84.net/~clueless/ ===========================++<>++========================= ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Jul 1997 11:39:56 -0400 (EDT) From: BatGirl Subject: *etheridge* Re: Weekend warriors (NMEC) Yes Indeed what an excursion we had in NYC this past weekend. I dare anyone to "Walk the streets" of New York city with SueD and not have a good time. Our first activity was performing the now ever popular list ritualistic toast, "Mean People Suck" toast! We did this again later at Crazy Nannies just to make sure we did it right. You know what they say practice makes perfect. I swear we were sitting beside Grace Jones in this bar. Seeing as I have not attained my Butch Merit badge as of yet I refrained from talking with her(shy thing). After many trips into the city Sue finally got me to the Slaughtered Lamb for Cider on tap. Well some you know my past experience with Cider and sleeping in closets so I timidly(not demurely)declined the Cider and did a Sam, beer that is. Alas, I apologize to all the gals who attempted to use the ladies room after I had finished. Never seen a soap dispenser hurl(no pun intended)across a room like that before. In defense of my femininity(is that a word)I suspect a setup. I'm certain the soap dispenser was rigged! I must admit that curling iron never touched my hair all weekend and yes I did don the Ball cap worn backwards for the ride home to Pa. Sue never reported on her Urban Fem kit though...I've seen less instruments in a surgeon's surgical kit than I have seen in this Fem pack that SueD does possess. I encourage any listers in the East coast area to come join us for an outing in NYC in the near future. It always manages to be an adventure.

Before anyone jumps down my throat, there is a big difference, IMO, between auctioning off items such as pictures, CD's, guitars, etc., in order to benefit Not-For-Profit orgs, such as LA Shanti. Performers (including MLE) donate materials all the time for events that support charities, etc. My big beef (and Glenna's too--yes, I'll speak for her ) is the use of (*especially*) autographed material for personal profit. What someone else does with their personal belongings is basically their own business--I'm not about to claim the title of 'ethics police' and try to prevent someone from doing something that I find ethically wrong outside the list. What I can do, however, is 1) make my feelings and opinions known, and 2) ban this type of activity from the list. This list is not a market place for people to make personal financial profit (receiving face-value compensation or what you paid for materials that you no longer want or need is *not* the same as making a profit). I've explained to Kiva (the holder of the autographed MLE CD) that I'm not comfortable with her current offer. I've asked her to use a different method to sell her CD and it will be entirely up to her to re-state her on-list offer, if she so chooses. I have, however, asked her not to refer to this particular 'auction' on-list again. I also thanked her for the way in which she has handled the liquidation of what appears to be her entire boot collection (at face-value) :-( Comments and questions from anyone and everyone are welcome. There are lots of differing opinions about this topic, but as far as this list goes, there is only one solution. In the future, if anyone has any material to *sell*, please get permission from the list-owners (not me) first. Permission for *trading* however, is not required. Thanks-- jen ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Jul 1997 18:30:36 -0400 (EDT) From: halfpint Subject: RE: *etheridge* Weekend warriors (NMEC) On Wed, 9 Jul 1997, Patti Fink wrote: > I dare not ask what the F-word means, Shirl.... :) frogs! ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 9 Jul 1997 22:01:40 -0400 (EDT) From: Hep145@aol.com Subject: Re: *etheridge* Bowling Shirts... incredible response.

Everyone seems to like the idea of creating a logo for the list. Well gang, someone has to design one. That would be YOU!!! It doesn't have to be professional, It doesn't have to be ready-for-camera quality. You can draw it in Windows paint program, Corel Draw, whatever. If you want to do it on paper and mail it to me, email me privately and we'll discuss it. I will come up with a closing date. After that date we will put all of the entries on someone's web site (I will scan in the paper entries), and everyone can vote for their favorite logo. That way the group decides, not just a select judging committee. Would a closing date of September 30th be too long? I'm thinking that most people are working, going on holidays, etc. Not everyone is home all day with oodles of time to design a logo. Comments, suggestions? (And the email comes rushing in again...) If you haven't sent me your input on shirt style, colour, and shirt ideas, PLEASE, please send them in. I can't begin to get prices on shirts until I have an idea of what we're buying.

I wasn't expecting this kind of interest. There may be enough interest to create a bowling shirt for those who want one, and another style shirt for those who don't want another bowling shirt, or don't like purple. There seems to be two distinct groups. Personally I like the purple bowling shirt concept because it really stands out at a concert. Purple doesn't work for everyone, I know. My thought wasn't to copy Joyce's original idea, merely just to continue it for those who didn't get a shirt the first time round and want to be a proud, visible part of the group at concerts. The purple bowling shirt will always be Joyce's idea. Some would like a rainbow embroidered. GRIN. Me too. Since this is a mixed group, I suggest we purchase a nice pre-made rainbow patch, and it can be added on for those who want to show their pride. Simple, inexpensive solution! I love the toaster oven idea! Keep the ideas pouring in... they ARE pouring in. I DO answer my email.... Since you are emailing me privately, feel free to tell me a bit about yourself, if only where you're from. I have keypals from all over the world, and I'm enjoying your little introductions. Take care...

Wellllllll, looks like we may be having another New York excursion next weekend to go see a New York Liberty WNBA game or as SueD would say, an LA Sparks(who is that cute little point guard Sue?) WNBA game. We plan to run around the village afterward and would enjoy having anyone along with who can make it up for the festivities. I promise not to butch out on any soap dispensers this time.

The flyer thing. Christi and I had to twist John's arm to go on it. Then he almost broke mine :) We were all three strapped in the same harness for a 175 foot drop. Only $60 a ride.

Add the Poohster to the list of those wanting a new Melister shirt! I like the polo or baseball shirt ideas and the rainbow on the sleeve would be a neat thang. It works out well for a disguise for me when I remove my wittle red shirt one and slip on a Melister shirt! And it is really good for us with bad eyesight anyway to be able to have help finding you all at concerts! You just look for that purple bowling shirt and know there is one of us amoungst em! And Melissa probably likes the help in seeing us out there as well. Just don't forget to make a little on for Bailey this time! :) As for stuff. Well I am full of that. :) It is good to see the list back on track and pulling together with ideas on how to be connected. Life is too short to be negative and if I have learned anything in life it is that: " Little Things Make Big Impacts!" I believe that a pebble placed warmly in my hand feels so much more at home that a huge rock. Little pebbles dropped into a lake cause a nicer ripple and seem to carry on across the lake. And I have noticed that the fish always come to investigate the little pebbles instead of hiding from the huge splash from that of a boulder thrown in. So here's your pebble from the paw of Pooh. Make a wish and toss it in the lake and watch as the ripples dance with glee across the lake and if you listen carefully you can hear a sigh from those who feel connected and at home once again. Much Warmth, "POOH" ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Jul 1997 08:56:25 -0400 (EDT) From: BatGirl Subject: *etheridge* Chic Magnet, Welcome back!

As for your plate, though, Shirl, I'll be surprised if you get them, since my hubby's PA plate is NEVRENUF and the state doesn't like to have personal plates that are that close, (we know, we tried to get matching plates for our cars, with a one letter difference and they refused to issue them) but I hope you do!

A quote in the 1993 Advocate interview, Julie said in no uncertain terms that they did not pay a million dollars for their house. I'm guessing this is the second house they are talking about. Regarding the post about buying or selling Melissa's autograph, I have always had a personal problem with this. I have my share of bootleg videos and CDs and who doesn't have a promo that says Not For Sale, but the only thing I have ever heard Melissa say she was uncomfortable with was the selling of her signature. It's my own little sign of respect, but I think I will have to do without her autograph in my collection. Unless of course she gives it to me in person. I Wish!!

I'm a relatively new Melissa fan, but have become somewhat obsessed with her and her music. The possibility of a tour in '98 has gotten my hopes up of seeing her in person. I was wondering what the opinions of the list members were about joinging MEIN to maybe get better seats at a concert. I don't think I could go to a concert and not get as close as possible, especially after reading about all the great times members of this list have had at them. Here's hoping the summer of '98 will bring a tour from Melissa and hopefully, I'll get to meet some of you at one of them.

Piercing, I'm not gonna touch that one! As to tattooing, I think you would have to pitch a battle with Susan Burk on that one, she seems to have a real talent for luring women into tattoo parlors :) If you are the expert tree hugger, I'll definitely have to see your credentials on that one. Scars and medical bills that is, don't wanna see you re-enact any of those incidents! Maybe we can get a few others to volunteer their services in the butch arts. Then we'll be well on our way to establishing a certified program that guarantees results upon graduation. WooHoo (to quote a certain Ms. Fink).

Logo Ideas??? Just thought I'd bring everybody up-to-date on the shirts. I've had a ton of email over the past week full of requests and ideas. I've answered most of it. I considering posting copies to the list, but it would have been too much. If you haven't heard from me, thank you for your patience. You'll hear from me in the next couple of days. I'm trying to find a job at the same time. (I love a challenge but this is crazy!!) To those who can't figure out why this is taking so long , I'm sorting through everything. How are the logo ideas coming along? Everyone agrees that we should have one! This is your chance to express yourself! Send them in. If you can't draw (or don't want to) describe your idea. I personally don't have time to draw them all for you. I have more than enough on my plate. The winner will not necessarily be the most professionally looking logo. We're looking for something that expresses what we represent as a group. Keep talking, and send those ideas in. The log contest ends at the end of September.... Next week, I will announce the most popular requests and ideas for shirts. We will then vote on the shirt type, color, and what we put on it. Keep watching the list. Thanks again for your input, support and patience. Many have written to me to introduce themselves. We have a wonderful, warm, caring, supportive group with a common bond. Let's see that reflected in our logo. Thanks for writing, and I hope to continue to hear from you. I'd love to hear from people in the Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal areas. Have a great week.

IIRC, it was the letter U that MLE "introduced" on her appearance on Sesame Street. So in the absence of any other information, I think it's worth setting those videos for wednesday morning.

Soooo many qualifications, Bec ;) I'll certainly support your true inner aspiration here and give SueD a glowing letter of recommendation on your behalf, as I can see that your whole spirit is genuinely eager to become an official B.I.T.C.H.!! Kudos!.and good luck! I know you'll do great! And what impeccable timing too! Our imminently certified Ms. Barrick will soon be arriving in The Big D. -- this Thursday, actually -- for a fine 10-day visit!!..and we here in Texas (DFW, no less) just happen to have not one, but TWO (2) fine specimens of B.I.T.'s for you to assist!! ;) SueD and I have already tried our vast B-powers out on Renee to no avail (particularly at the pool table), so she will be ripe to test your true talents, m'dear And then, we have TigerLily over in Ft. Worth.she's preT-Ty resistant, I might add.so you'll probably need to address the `tude first before you try to wrest the curling iron from her feisty grip ;) You may have better luck with Renee than the Divine SueD & I did..'course, we didn't have the respect and authority that you will carry as an official B.I.T.C.H., so I hold out hope that you'll see some success with her If all goes well with the first two subjects, perhaps we could dispatch you to provide some much-needed assistance to Shirl the Hurl'n'Curl Girl, whose DQ is no doubt stuck hard in the deficit column but m-i-g-h-t have the potential to rise in light of the recent soap dispenser "encounter" The DSD noted: > Oh boy, a certified program.

Ok Sue, perhaps you could coordinate a seminar series for The BITCH Class of '97..sort of a "Train the Trainer" approach ..Susan could lead one on tattoo-pushers and their techniques (with a Q&A afterwards on maximizing shock-value from loved ones)..Bec could lead an entry-level class in "The Joy of Adrenalin" as well as an advanced class ("When the Edge Just Isn't Close Enough: Proven Methods for Successful Endangerment") -- which, btw, is a prereq for "ColoUr Me Pierced"..JohnJuan DeMiller could be a guest lecturer with a spellbound audience on a whole raft of subjects ..and Sue, you could start by hosting a lab on "How to Pack for Bench-Pressing at Baggage Claim"....and a workshop on "101 Less Obvious Uses For Those Skirts In The Back of Your Closet" The BITCH possibilities are endless!!! :) OK....'nuf for now....back to work!! ;) Patti (who's in Dallas awaiting arrival of the Barrie Barrick in just 3 days ) pattif@iadfw.net ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jul 1997 16:01:14 -0400 (EDT) From: halfpint Subject: Re: *etheridge* Piercing (NMEC) On Mon, 14 Jul 1997 IdgieGrrl@aol.com wrote: > Just a quickie note to ask anyone out there that has their tongue pierced to > please e-mail me.

I must admit I've been busy at the parlor again lately. I took my friend Brian down to go under the needle. He's a guitar player in a band & had his Fender Strat tattooed on his upper arm. It turned out great. A friend from work tagged along & wound up with a very cool looking sun wearing sunglasses on her ankle. And me...well I guess you could say I had a little inspiration for my latest work. On the inside of my ankle I got a little thundercloud with lightning bolts coming out of it. It also has the date 07-05-97. Why that date you might wonder? That would be the day I got inspired. I was at work & got hit by lightning in the parking lot. Lucky for me I was inside my Jeep although I took one hell of a jolt I'm still still here to talk about it. I was taken to the hospital ER & lucky for me released that night. I don't have any permanent damage either. They thought I maybe had some psychological damage but then they realized I've always been like that. :) I'm just hoping the next time I want to get a tattoo I don't have to have that kind of inspiration for it! >>Patti said: Susan could lead one on tattoo-pushers and their techniques (with a Q&A afterwards on maximizing shock-value from loved ones)..<< Can I make a living doing that??

Three in each ear that were just on the lobe, one in each ear that is half on cartilige half on lobe (NEVER let anyone peirce that part of your ear!!! Not only does it hurt like hell, but it's more prone to infections, tumors, and massive scar tissue.) Like a dummy,I went into spencers and said "I want to get a fourth hole in each ear.I suggest Carimars or a related chain for pericing ears. That's where I went to have my upper ear pierced. They did a great job,and they have titanium,double long posts so as to ward off infection and swelling complications. But getting back to tongue pericings. Well I have a few friends who have had it done and were quite shocked at the results. The instructions say to keep the area as germ free as possible for 6 months. Not weeks months. No kissing for at least 2 weeks. And absolutely no oral sex. One of them did not heed this rule and boy did he pay for it. Imagine having to go into the ER because your tongue is so swollen and infected because you had oral sex with your girlfriend. She had to go in with him and be examined. And the irony was she had nothing abnormal. He on the other hand had a swollen face for about a week and was on massive antibiotics. My other friend who has it done can't keep his tongue in his mouth any more. He has a small sized peice of jewelry but there is just no room for it in his mouth. He walks around looking like a dog on a hot summers day. But Russ's tongue was fine. He followed the instructions and it healed up quite nicely. The things to remember are: Have it done by a professional. Check to see that they have an autoclave and use fresh instruments each time. Check their license out. I have friends who are pericers who say the experience is much more pleasant if the pericee asks the pericer questions about their traininng and licensing. It gives them both a peice of mind for the pericee that the person impailing whatever part of their body knows what their doing and for the pericer that the person is consious of their decision and is making an educated decision. I hope this help a little. Good luck and let us know if you do it.

I know it must be so for Melissa for she wrote a song about it: "The Letting Go." I assume it is something we all go through though some seem to get through it alot more easily than others. This letting go is hard. I seem to remember a time when letting go was not so hard. When you knew it was not so final. When you knew it was like a book once you have reached its ending you knew you could always turn back and read from the beginning again. Hmmm! Not hard at all. Like when the dew is resting in the morning on the honeysuckcle vines and you stand and look at the colors of the rainbow gleeming back at you and you know that this moment in time will never be the same and you just don't want to let it go. But the sun comes forth and dries up the colors of the rainbow and yet the fragrance of the honeysuckcle still lingers on. Maybe Melissa had a similar experience when she let us go for a year. The energy of the crowds, the rush of emotions running through her veins as she got ready to pour out her energy and watch as we basked in its glow. Leading us to the edge and bringing us back to safety with just the right chord change. And then saying good-bye for a while. Although much needed I am sure the letting go was hard. We know that one day we will be friends yet today you don't even know one another when you happen to glance in each others direction. Eyes meet but hollowness is all that appears from the windows of the soul for no ones at home. The letting go is hard. It is a change in season not scheduled as if winter came in the summer. It is ice on the windows when they were suppose to be left open for a breeze to blow in sweetness and warmth. It is a smell in the air that fills your senses with fear. It is a fork raked over fillings and a jolt that goes directly to the heart leaving only a cold metallic taste to linger where once only lovem held your heart captive. The letting go is hard. The dark has no whisper and the music no mercy. The fear of engine failure as the plane leaves the ground and love is left hanging in mid air. The comfort of strangers in airports saying hello reaches out to relieve the shudder running up and down your spine and soften the lump in your throat. No class to learn how to do it, no manual for instruction, these are the lessons of the heart and only time will get us through it.

Pretty much all of IWTCO. I know a lot of people don't really like this song but when you are separated from the one that you love, and the feelings of "I want to come over the hell with the consequence, you told me you loved me thats all I believe" are returned just a equally it is an amazing feeling and song. 2)Least favorite....hmm....well I'm not too sure. I don't like the ones hinting at infidelity in relationshps but that's just me. 3)My favorite/worst concert. Aughhhhhhh Well Melissa came around my neighborhood in september of 1996. I wanted to go and take my love but "the parents won't have it" I wasn't about to go without being able to share it with the one I love.

I had an absolutely wonderful weekend..got to see the IG in concert for the first time - it was pretty much a religious experience!! They had a local group open for them - and all the Seattlites who attended I'm sure will agree - contained a baritone sax player who was an absolute knock-out. I fell completely in love with her -- well, maybe head over heals in lust! Anyway....I went surfing and found their homepage (the group is called the Billy Tipton Memorial Saxophone Quartet) and found the bio for my new heart throb Barbara Marino. It says she once toured in the back of a station wagon with an unknown singer-song writer named Melissa Etheridge! So fill me in, my all-knowing goddesses of MLE trivia! Who is this woman...has anyone else ever heard of her? She also toured and did a bunch of stuff with the Indigo Girls. I think Barbara and I were lovers in a past life, so I need to get the message to her soon. (JUST Kidding!!)

We don't accept that kind of behaviour at OUR parties, where the normal fare is pots of Earl Grey, scones, clotted cream and strawberry jam, and finger sandwiches, accompanied by polite conversation on relevant subjects of interest to everyone. On the other hand, I infer that acceptable party behaviour (if not to mention _de rigueur_) among the younger generation (judging from the antics of *some* recent list newbies) includes interrupting existing conversations to blabber endlessly about oneself, rudely insulting the existing guests, and being offended and sulking (rather loudly) when asked to adjust one's behaviour to the party rather than the party to one's behaviour. P.S. BiscuIts are much better with a nice bit of Stilton and a glass of vintage port than with honey, which is more aptly applied to teacakes. - --- ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Jul 1997 13:46:49 +0200 (GMT+0200) From: Mic Webster Subject: *etheridge* Newbie Introduction Hi I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks ... i will add being much entertained by the discussion, more significantly because i haven't yet been able to decided whether i'm butch or femme but then maybe that would make me an ideal candidate for one of the course ... preferably the butch one please ... i wouldn't know what to do with a curling iron anyway ... my name is mic and i live in South Africa, M.A. student in History, focus on African women's studies ... but that's the boring stuff.

I am always a bit set back when I see negativity that cannot be inspired. It always tends to make me ponder. It makes me wonder does negativity have a heart that is unreachable? Does negativity feed off of other peoples kindness and warmth? Has negativity never sat quiet and listened to the flow of the river and known contentment? Or is negativity constantly hungering and searching for its next victim? Why is it negativity seems to me to not know kindness nor warmth and cannot rest when it sees this in others. I think negativity is a child that has been beaten and knows not love nor warmth nor happiness only the comfort of its little corner of the world where it hunkers down and is constantly in search of its next victim. I think negativity is in the wrong place when it jumps on the Melissa list. For love and kindness lives here and truth speaks at this house and knows not this darkness. For it is here that love lives and we all know how contagious that is. What a wonderful thing if it enveloped negativity and suddenly turned the darkness in its corner into pure light. What a revelation it would be to see for the first time as a blind person sees a hummingbird in flight and how sweet the sound of a heart that has learned to feel. Negativity beware for warmth and love lives here.

At this point it appears as though we WILL have bowling shirts as before. There also appears to be considerable interest in baseball jerseys, and limited interest in golf shirts. You do not have to choose one style if you want more than one. I ask that you ONLY vote for what you SERIOUSLY intend to order. This vote is to help us in gathering prices and to if there is sufficient interest in the baseball and golf shirts. Here is the info I will be asking for next week, so keep it in the back of your mind. 1. Shirt type: bowling, baseball or golf 2. Colour: (bowling shirts WILL be purple) 3. Size: (important, as we may need to find XXXL in some styles) 4. Quantity (of each type and size) Details on the purple bowling shirts will be posted when I return. I'm waiting for some info.

In England, a biscuit = a cracker.

I don't have Jen's, John's and Glenna's personal e-mail addresses, and I know it is not fair of me to "air my laundry" for the whole list, but I am angry and I can not keep quiet any longer... I joined the list because I love Melissa... She is my angel... Hell, her music saved my life! I did not join this list, though to be "yelled at" for trying to pay my rent! I posted on the list that I had a CD autographed by Melissa and I wanted to take bids on it. I got an e-mail a few days later from Jen asking me to maybe re-word, or change how I was going about selling it, if were to post on the list about it.. I sent her back and e-mail and apologized. I am not the kind of person that likes to make people mad... It's just not part of me. *BEFORE* I received the e-mail from Jen, I sent an update on the CD bidding to the list. Now, I get the list in Digest format and I know a lot of times the posts take a while to get sent, etc... But I did not send that second e-mail after I got the e-mail from Jen... I guess she did not believe me, or e-mails got crossed. Because I got a very "stern" e-mail warning from Jen that reduced me to tears! I sent one back to her profusely apologizing for any misunderstandings that may have happened and I explained what happened... I did not hear anything from her again and that hurt! Not even an e-mail to let me know all was okay, or that she saw that is was a complete mix up... And then to know that it was POSTED! I was in tears, I was humiliated, I was HURT!!!! That was NOT right and not fair. And not to get an apology. I guess some of us are not taking Melissa's message seriously are we? I think the rules on this list are really wrong... I now am afraid to post about Melissa Import CD's I am trying to sell. I am afraid to post about the autographed CD, I was told not to post another word about it... I still have not sold it and I really need the money. Not being able to post about it ruined any chance of me selling it. and I am afraid to post about anything, ever! This is not what I thought this list was about... I can see that a lot of the people who post are regulars and know each other. At first I felt left out, kind of out of place. But then I became okay with it all. Now, I don't even read the list. I delete it. Why? Because I am frustrated... If I want to respond, what will happen if I word something wrong and Jen or John or Glenna doesn't like it... It's not fair. It's not right. And I want no more of it... Maybe I sound childish. Fine. I really don't care. I am BROKE! I have NO MONEY! ZILCH! I am just trying to support myself. Thanks God I have these CD's to sell. I am sorry if I can't donate the money to a charity, like Tim is doing with the picture. I wish I could. God knows I have enough medical problems that I have all the charities I need to give money to... Right now *I* need the money... I am sorry if I have upset anyone with my actions. I have come to see that most Melissa fans I know are very, very understanding. I have made some wonderful friends off the list, but for me, dealing with all I do in my life on a daily basis, I don't need the extra stress of watching EVERY word I say, as to worry if I am going to piss someone off... It aint worth it. If you want to respond directly to me about this e-mail, please feel free to. I will answer all your e-mails. But I will not post on the list anymore, and I won't read it either... I think that Jen and John and Glenna really need to look and what a little irritation on their parts and a harsh, mean e-mail caused to one person. I don't know if anyone else has gotten them, but I think that it is wrong and unfair to treat people the way I was treated... I am a sensitive person. I guess some people are not... Thanks for listening one last time... As Melissa says... "Keep It Precious"...

Yes, Melissa's song 'Like The Way U Does' should have immediately followed the typewriter/umbrella clip, at least that's the sequence shown in the U.S. I don't remember the Ethel Mermaid clip in the U.S. version, though I no longer paid attention after I finished taping Melissa's clip.

(long) Hi, all-- I normally don't tend to respond publically (to this list, at least ) to stuff like this, because I assume that people just frankly don't care. Part of me, however, feels a little badly about the way Kiva feels, but a bigger part of me wants to clarify a few things. I've CC'd the message to Kiva, as I understand that she's no longer reading the list. >>> 07/16/97 07:53pm >>> writes: >I don't have Jen's, John's and Glenna's personal e-mail >addresses, My feathers get a tad bit ruffled when someone says this. In the list guidelines, there are two mailing addresses for myself and one for Dave/Glenna. I also posted my URL, where the guidelines may be accessed, if people don't feel like keeping a copy in their mailboxes. There really isn't any reason for someone to say they're posting to the list instead of privately because they don't have seperate addresses. It would be much more acceptable to me--on a *personal* level--if this excuse wasn't used. >I did not join this list, though to be "yelled at" for trying to >pay my rent! No one "yelled" at you, Kiva. I asked you in a mature, tactful manner to please refrain from selling items for personal *profit* on the MLE list. Go back and read my original mail to you and my post to the list...I expressed regret at your having to sell things that meant a great deal to you. I simply asked that you not profit off of someone else for your own benefit *on the list*. >I got an e-mail a few days later from Jen asking me to >maybe re-word, or change how I was going about selling it, And you agreed that my suggestion was 'a wonderful idea' and that you'd think about it. >*BEFORE* I received the e-mail from Jen, I sent an update >on the CD bidding to the list.

I guess she did not believe me, or >e-mails got crossed. Because I got a very "stern" e-mail >warning from Jen that reduced me to tears! I'll invite you to go back and re-read this second email from me, also. The very first line stated that I assumed/hoped that my original mail and your update had crossed paths. The purpose of the second mail was to make sure that you understood what the first mail had said. Quite frankly, I was 90% sure that you *had* indeed sent the update to the list before you read my personal mail. Had been just about anyone else, I wouldn't have been as lenient as I was with you. I believed that there *was* confusion on your part. You did not receive a warning from me...I told you that *would* receive a warning if you continued to post and ask for bids for the CD. I didn't warn you to begin with because I figured that you hadn't seen my mail to you. >And then to know that it was POSTED! I was in tears, I was >humiliated, I was HURT!!!! That was NOT right and not fair. >And not to get an apology. I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that my private mail to you was posted. I received several private responses from people who were complaining about the auctioning of MLE's signature for your personal gain. I sent a *seperate* post to the entire list stating that profiting from such material for personal gain was unacceptable, and that I had asked you to reconsider your practice. I again told the entire list that I understood your position and that I felt badly about it. >I guess some of us are not taking Melissa's message >seriously are we? To what message are you referring? I addressed the selling of Melissa's signature for your own personal gain. I would be willing to bet money that MLE would not be thrilled knowing that her signature was being sold for personal profit. I could be wrong about this--I'm merely speculating. She might *not* mind it if she knew that you were in financial straights and needed the funds. More to the point, however, this list is not an auction house for personal use. I don't think that 'Melissa's Message' gives anyone permission to make a personal profit off of her. >I think the rules on this list are really wrong... I now am >afraid to post about Melissa Import CD's I am trying to sell. I addressed this matter personally and I even *thanked* you publically for the way in which you went about selling your imports. As for not liking the rules of the list, well, you have two options that I can think of: 1) initiate mature discussion about why you feel they are wrong or unfair and perhaps effect changes (as I invited everyone to do when I recently posted the guidelines). I think the second option is pretty much obvious...so much so that I'm not going to even mention it. >I am afraid to post about the autographed CD, I was told not >to post another word about it... Kiva, I asked you not to post about the auction as you were handling it. I invited you to either take my suggestion about selling the CD, come up with your own acceptable alternative, or refrain from mentioning it again on the list if you so chose to continue taking bids. I did not even mention the alternative I suggested to the entire list. I told you that it was entirely *up to you* to decide how to sell the CD, but that if you decided to continue taking bids that you were not allowed to do so on the list. Do you know that if this list was still hosted at McGill (an .edu address) that there could be some serious ramifications for using an .edu-hosted service for profit? Do you understand that if MLE got her goldlameleopardskinpants (tm) in a wad that she could probably take legal action against Dave and Glenna for allowing the list to be used to profit financially from her name and/or likeness? It's not just *my* personal beliefs and feelings that led to my asking you to refrain from posting about the original auction. >I still have not sold it and I really need the money. Not being >able to post about it ruined any chance of me selling it. I find this hard to believe. You stated that you had a high bid of $200 for the CD. I didn't tell you that you couldn't continue the bidding process off-list (in fact, I stated that I wasn't the ethics police and that I had no control over what you did off list). If you want to sell the CD, sell it. Sell it to the highest bidder. Put it on a personal web-page and take bids...just don't use a list owned by someone else to do something that could have serious ramifications. >and I am afraid to post about anything, ever! If I may be so bold, I have not said or done anything to you to cause you to feel this way. >This is not what I thought this list was about... It's also not a market place for individual profiteering. >I can see that a lot of the people who post are regulars and >know each other. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I would consider you a 'regular'. You've been around here and posted somewhat regularly for at least a year. >At first I felt left out, kind of out of place.

If I want to respond, what >will happen if I word something wrong and Jen or John or >Glenna doesn't like it... It's not fair. It's not right. And I want >no more of it... Melodramatic, blown-out-of-proportion fare such as this really gets on my nerves. It's not about wording something wrong, Kiva. It's about an action that you were taking on the list that was basically ethically wrong (not just my own opinion, mind you)--you were asked (nicely, I might add) to stop it. You did, and as far as I was concerned, it was a closed case. One week to the day after I asked you to rethink your method of selling MLE's autograph, you're still upset about it and posted to the list that you were leaving. There is nothing I can do about the way you perceive being asked to follow rules. >I am BROKE! I have NO MONEY! ZILCH! I am just trying to >support myself. I sympathize with you, as I've said I do and as I'm sure close to most of the people on this list do. >Right now *I* need the money... Show me where *anyone* told you *not* to sell the CD. I certainly didn't tell you *not* to sell it. I didn't tell you that you *had* to follow any kind of procedure for selling it. I simply told you not to go about selling it in the manner which you were utilizing *on the list*. Contact the person who sent you the highest bid and sell it to him/her. Who is stopping you from doing that? >I don't need the extra stress of watching EVERY word I >say, as to worry if I am going to piss someone off... You haven't watched EVERY word you've posted in the past, you don't need to watch EVERY word you post in the future, and I think you know that. >But I will not post on the list anymore, and I won't read it >either... That's your choice. I don't think that *anyone* on this list thinks it's necessary for you to pack your toys and run home. >I think that Jen and John and Glenna really need to look >and what a little irritation on their parts and a harsh, mean >e-mail caused to one person. Give me a break. Shall I post that "harsh, mean email" and take a vote? Would that make you feel any better? I don't think that I've been mean to you in this particular post that I'm sending right now...and this makes the private mail I sent you look like a Hallmark card. >I don't know if anyone else has gotten them, but I think that >it is wrong and unfair to treat people the way I was treated... Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that you're required to follow rules everywhere you go--a mailing list is not an exception. Would you break a law or a rule in one city and move to another when you were told that you were wrong and asked not to break the rule again? I really do hate to say this, but for crying out loud, grow up. >I am a sensitive person. I guess some people are not... You know what? So am I. You know what else? When I read that you were selling your imports, the first thing I did was start an email addressed to you personally to offer to buy the boots from you at fair-market value and hold them until you were able (if ever) to buy them back (at what I would have paid for them)--even though most of what you were selling I already had. As soon as I started the mail, however, your post stating that you had sold the imports appeared on the list. It really does make me sad to think of having to sell off things that mean so much, but I understand all too well the need to do so. People have helped me in the past and sometimes the only way to pay them back is to help others. I refrained from contacting you to tell you what I wanted to do because I figured that it might make you feel worse to discuss the situation further and there was no point, IMO, in dragging out an unpleasant situation when you had already sold the CD's. I thought to myself that I would, at some point and time in the future, be able to help someone else. Do not tell me that because I asked you to cease using the list for an unethical practice that I'm insensitive. Do not tell Dave and Glenna that they are insensitvie to your plight because they don't want their list turned into a market place. They provide the list for our enjoyment and discussion about MLE and various off-topic subjects--not for us to profit from financially. You do what you want to do regarding staying on the list. If you've enjoyed the list, then it's only your own loss if you leave it. jen--irritated further because she's taken a lot of time to respond to this issue. ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Jul 1997 13:28:38 -0500 From: Jenniffer Smith Subject: *etheridge* I Am Now Truly Crushed...(NMEC) I just found out that Rainy Day Records is (has?) moved to Florida.

(long) Jen, I am really angry at the way you responded to this... There were no "rules" when I first signed up on this list and I was never told what I was allowed to say and wasn't. If you would have told me in the first place that there could be legal ramifications, I would have been a little less angry and less prone to lash out again at you... I received a lot of e-mail from people who understand how I feel and sympathize with me. I am sorry if you think I need to "pick up my toys" and leave... I think that someone else needs to manage this list, besides you... You have a way of twisting things around to make you look like the hurt one and me like the mean ugly one. That is NOT the case and it makes me very, very angry that you seem to think I am using this list as a personal profit... For your information, I have Tourette Syndrome. I CAN NOT WORK! There now the whole damn world knows what I am going through! Thanks! I have tried many, many times to get a job, but no one seems to want to hire me. I have NO source of income and so if I am able to sell my Melissa CD collection, then THANK GOD!I don't want pity from people about my money situation, I just don't want to be scolded if I am trying to make money! I realize, NOW, after this whole fiasco blew up, that there could be legal problems You never told me that and you should have. It would have saved a lot of trouble... I am sorry if people were angry that I was doing that. No one e-mailed me and said anything to me about it, neither did you tell me people were frustrated with the way I handled the auction thing... And just to let you know, saying that Melissa would not approve is WAY off... You have no right to lend that assumption. Ask her. Do you know her? Can you tell me that for a fact!? When I speak to her next I will ask her how she feels. How is that? Will that make everyone happy???Then don't assume... I am really sorry and hurt, that my trying to pay my bills has created such a fiasco... I wish I could take it all back and I wish I never posted about the CD in the first place. I have posted off and on, on the list for a while now. I have read some flaming, mean and downright nasty posts and such. But I have NEVER felt so hurt in my life... You can call me all the names you want Jen, and you can say whatever you want about me to the list, to Glenna and David, I really don't care anymore... I have had enough of this petty Bulls*it... Thank you for embarrassing me to tears again Jen... No, no really... Thank you. I needed that extra slap in the face to make my day... Maybe I am being melodramatic. It's the Gemini in me, that I can't help... But I have really been hurt and embarrassed with all this. It may be forgotten in a few days, but it's still going to hurt inside of me... Call it whatever you want, some are more sensitive than other... Maybe some people on the list agree with you, maybe some don't. I am tired of caring what people think of me. I have been judged all my life for one reason or another. Maybe I was too fat, or I made funny noises I couldn't help... I am done caring... I just don't have anything left inside of me to care... Sad huh? I will go and take my toys and leave now Jen... I won't bother you and your precious list and rules again... I forgive you for the hurt you caused me. I am used to being hurt. But I will tell you this... I hope that if the tables are ever turned and you are on the receiving end of things like this, that no one treats you the way you treated me... Peace, I hope someday...

Hard Times Come Again No More! I keep hearing this song in my mind. I wonder why. I know what they are I guess. Grew up that way. Livin' on beans and cornbread and fried taters and whatever Dad shot that day. I think and here I go pondering again, and you can correct me if I am wrong here but I think most of us live pay check to paycheck and are probably only one paycheck away from bankruptcy. Feeling this way, Kivas desperation is understandable. And very disheartening and sad to know that she has to sale something so dear to her heart. Yet still this whole thing is getting ugly. I don't think we think correctly when we are living in desperation. I know Kiva has a very good heart and would not in normal circumstances come to this outright unbecoming behavior. I would that possibly we try to understand and be tolerant. I know this kind of thing has the capability of getting out of control. I say we know Kiva has an autographed CD and needs the cash. I find it very becoming of Jen to offer up the money and offer to hold it for her until she can rebuy it. A large hug for that one. In life there are rules to live by. In my life I set down my own rules. Basically it is a simple life I lead. And having been to the fire and come out of the ashes alive with new wings to teach me how to once again fly I share this connection to hard times and yet I know that whatever situation hard times throws my way I am and always will be a better bear in the end. I would ask that Kiva takes herself out of the fire of hard times and steps up to believe that these times too shall pass and attacking the list out of desperation is not the path to take. We all here are better than that. We all here are connected and when asked to step up and help we come through. We are caring. And I think there is no need to question that. We know it to be true. If Kiva will stop and look into the mirror long enough to see the truth she will know what is true that hard times seems to have temporarily blinded her and that her sight will return, she will not live in darkness long for hard times never stay and when the light begins to filter back in she will see that hard times cannot stay where light fills the room and hope lives eternal. I just pray that the temporary loss of sight does not have lasting effects. Let us have understanding for desperation and love for the person who is a reflection of what we too could become.

It has been my experience that Jen has always managed the list extremely fairly - always putting the interests of the *list* first, regardless of her own personal views. I don't think anyone should start making decisions like that. Jen was democratically elected as moderator of the list *by* the list. If any changes are going to be made, they too must be made democratically. But IMO, no changes are at all necessary. > You have a way of twisting things around to make you look like the hurt one > and me like the mean ugly one.

The fact remains that your being broke really isn't the responsibility of this list. As Rhonnda said, we have all been, or are going through, tough times for whatever reason and we all have to make tough decisions in order to survive. But that really is beyond the remit of this list. > And just to let you know, saying that Melissa would not approve is WAY off... > You have no right to lend that assumption. Ask her. Do you know her? Can you > tell me that for a fact!? Perhaps you should reread that part of Jen's message again.

I have posted off and on, on the list for a while now. > I have read some flaming, mean and downright nasty posts and such. But I have > NEVER felt so hurt in my life... No-one likes to hear of people hurting so much, but I really don't think it's fair to dump this on Jen. Jen was forced into defending herself publicly and it really should not have been necessary. Now you are trying to make her out to be the wicked witch of the west whereas I think it is obvious to most of us that Jen went out of her way to be patient and fair. In fact, I think all this talk of negativity on the list is misplaced - particularly since most of those complaining about it are the ones who are guilty of instigating it. Anyway, whilst I'm here: as I'm sure a few of you will be pleased to hear, I'll be leaving this list in about 3 week's time as I'm leaving this job. I'm desperately hoping to get connected at home somehow but in the meantime I'll have to make do with hearing all the news from the list second hand, via Kate. So, I'll still be with you spirit! I would like to wish everyone a happy weekend. Kate & I are off to do exciting things like paint our kitchen. Hmmm...what colour - cornflower yellow or lime green ? I suppose the one which will most upset our flatmate... ;) Oh dear, naughty me - thinking negative thoughts again. :) Sarah ***** ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Jul 1997 09:32:50 -0400 From: Gwen Shinko Subject: *etheridge* Of martyrs and melodrama I've been on the list for almost two years now and I've met some very wonderful people. The list has had its ups and downs and rough spots but we've always been able to muddle thru one way or another. (shrug) But I dunno, lately I don't even bother reading most of the digests and I'm seriously considering "doing a Deb." You know.... switching over to the info. only list cause I can't stand wading thru the inane posts about clouds and flowers and everyone loving everyone and hugging everyone and all the whining because someone else got mad when another someone said something that the other someone didn't bother reading before springing onto a soapbox to extoll the virtues of world peace or whatever. And in my not-so-humble opinion, I think our list moderator, Jen, has done and continues to do a stellar job. It's a thankless, very time consuming, totally UNPAID job that she volunteered to take over after Deb got burned out from all the public and private attacks like the ones being leveled at Jen now. And while I'm on my soapbox, as for Kiva's latest kneejerk, reactionary post: >For your information, I have Tourette Syndrome. I CAN NOT WORK! There now the >whole damn world knows what I am going through! Actually (and I'm sure miss rhondda or Trace could probably track these posts down), I remember that Kiva posted on at least two separate occasions several months back about her Tourette Syndrome so she already told the "whole damn world" without any prodding from anyone else. >I don't want pity from people about my money situation, I just don't want >to be scolded if I am trying to make money! Oh for cryin'outloud, enough already! (Although I think you're waaay off base here because I have the distinct impression that you are intentionally making these comments about not being able to find work and the supposed fact that you're broke, etc. because you do want pity... and possibly higher bids) You've made your point. Please take it to private email.

I say we all know what has happened and that Jen has done a wonderful, excellent, outstanding job and that she has stood up and told us what she wanted us to know about Kiva and the whole ordeal. Now the thing I think we need do is not start jumping on soapboxes and casting out hurtful and harmful opinions. Rather in an old southern term, "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie." For if we keep beating on the hornets nest sooner or later someone is gonna get stung. Plus it is all rather plain and simple to me, since Kiva is no longer reading the list, why bother!

Part of me regrets responding to Kiva's post publically, rather than privately, because I'm sure this would not have dragged on another day had I refrained...but...well...I guess I'm human, too. Knee-jerks can get the best of us and I'm not immune to firing off responses on a whim. I will take this opportunity, however, to publically say that it was never my intention to hurt anyone's feelings. Regardless of my personl thoughts on the matter at hand, feelings were apparently stepped on and that is not what I set out to do. This is not an apology--it is simply clarification of personal intent.

I don't remember if this pop up video has already been discussed to death, but in case it hasn't... one of the bubbles says that Julie divorced in 1994. Gee, I thought it was earlier than that? Also, there's a bubble saying that M & J started dating in 1991. I remember quite clearly an interview (I believe it was the "controversial" Advocate one) in which Melissa said they were "officially together" by January 1990 (I won't even speculate about any "unofficial" time together, but I do wonder if there might have been a taxi involved). But at my age, there's a distinct possibility that my memory is fading. Also mentioned: the house in the video is "theirs"; it was shot on Melissa's birthday; and they had just found out Julie was pregnant and didn't tell anyone on the shoot. as always, a thrill a minute... allison "We tune because we care" edgy@primenet.com -Mary Chapin Carpenter ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 19 Jul 97 23:09:39 -0500 (CDT) From: pattif@iadfw.net (Patti Fink) Subject: *etheridge* NMEC: Dallas' The Ridge -- Final Night Hey gang!

We met at noon outside Crazy Nanny's. Emphasis on "outside" since we didn't discover until we got there that Nanny's isn't open at noon. So we walked a few blocks to the Slaughtered Lamb, where we drank some beer, ate some food, and made rude comments about the waitress. When it was time to leave, Sue wanted to take a taxi but some people decided to go for the butch points and walk. So we walked, stopping in at a bar along the way. After the game, we walked back to the Village and went to Nanny's for more drinking and white-girl-dancing. Then it was on to Henrietta Hudson's, where I took my leave.

'Tis true. A bar in NYC NOT open at noon on Saturday??? What to make of this?

We are happy to report that the infamous soap dispenser was returned to it's proper home on the wall. Shirl, going for more butch points, wanted to knock it off again and this time do the old squash-the-can-against-the-forehead maneuver to take care of it once and for all. We convinced her this wouldn't be a good idea since the flying soap might ruin her curls!

Yes, we gave Nanny's another chance and we are happy to say they were open at 7pm on a Saturday. The city that never sleeps was back in business! We had our Mean People Suck toast and then got the History of Women's basketball by Nanny's softball coach, Joan. >Then it was on to Henrietta Hudson's, where I took my leave. What >happened after that, you'll have to ask one of the others. Well let's see.. we witnessed arm wrestling, participated in thumb wrestling, did much more white-girl-dancing, partied with the LA Sparks assistant coach (at this point Shirl earned more butch points by challenging another patron of the bar on the credentials of LA's coaches. The patron soon realized she was outdone and she backed down. You go, Shirl girl!) As the night wound down, we taxied up to Penn Station to catch the LIRR to the East Coast shrine to Our Lady of Etheridge. After our Devine Tour Guide had us sprinting through the station to catch the train (yes, Shirl was running in heals!), we found the train didn't leave for an hour. Our trusty DSD was reading the train schedule incorrectly. We didn't hold this against her since she had just survived a grueling day of playing tour guide, white-girl-dancing, follow the bouncing b_ _ _ of the waitress, and of course, cheering on one little Stanford Grad! During our wait, Shirl and Lisa read the personals, Sue and Randy captured the moment on film and Karen and I rested up for our long awaited introduction to the East Coast Shrine. Before this could occurred, however, we soon found out we had to endure an 1 1/2 hour train ride in subzero temperatures. It was so cold, before we could disembark from the train, we each had to think of our hottest Melissa concerts in order to get the hot blood flowing so our bodies could move. As for the Shrine, well, no words can explain it. Patti is right, there is just about 3 millimeters of wall space left. I'd scrunch anytime in the Shrine. There is nothing like waking up in the morning staring at Melissa in every direction! WooWee!! In the morning, Shirl and Lisa cooked a fabulous breakfast while we poured through Sue's vast collection of pictures from her excursions with other listers. We also viewed the Texas Tour video, which included the activities at The Ridge following the Dallas Show. What a night. I recommend anyone and everyone who can make the final night at the Ridge this weekend, to go. When I read this, my heart sunk. I hope the new bar in Oak Lawn is just as good, if not better. Knowing those barkeeps and Sylvia the owner, I'm sure it will be. Karen and I really enjoyed our weekend. Meeting Sue, Shirl, Randy, Lisa and Redsocks was beyond our expectations. The hours flew by (except the train ride to the Shrine, burrrr...!). You can't beat the time you have when a bunch of listers get together. KiP, Diane (and Karen, who asked me to say for her "WE GOT NEXT!!!!!") . . . P.S. Oh yeah, as for the game, NY Liberty beat LA Sparks, 69-57 (I think ;) ). ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Jul 1997 12:08:17 EDT From: "Jane Vaughn" Subject: *etheridge* Re: Looking Back (NMEC) Hello Melisters, I was riding in Benny the truck. And looked in the mirror before changing lanes and was struck by this thought: Objects In The Rear View Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear. Hmmmm! Benny knows how to speak right to the heart. So I pondered this thought that Benny brought into the light. I guess they truly are for the ones we have loved and left behind are always closer than we think. They are just a memory away. Whether they be good or bad memories they are still closer than they appear and I think this is a good thing. We seem to never shed the memories of lost loves. They cling to our hearts even when the excitement of a new love is on the horizon. One can hear the songs of past loves if you sit silent and listen to the sunset as it sinks into the ocean waves at the close of the day. And I think we are open for insight if we listen for it is then we learn of ourselves and what might work for the better next time around. For just as the tide brings in treasures daily to leave us upon the shore so too our hearts leaves us messages if only we would stop and listen. Yes, objects in the rear view mirror are closer than they appear and it is a good thing to look,listen and hear without fear.

"Doing the people's business" written by Tom Barrett Vancouver Sun July 22, 1997 "The British Columbian legislature has been busy, creating the job of children's commissioner, raising penalties for those involved in police chases, and setting up a police complaints commissioner. Several pieces of legislation are still expected to raise hot debates before the session ends in about two weeks..... While anticipated battle over controversial labor legislation evaporated with the withdrawl of the bill last week, several important pieces of legislation are still to be dealt with before the session ends in about two weeks. Probably the most important - and certainly the most controversial - are Bills 31 and 32, the Family Relations Amendment Act and the Family Maintenance Enforcement Amendment Act. The two bills have been in the news recently because of provisions that give additional rights and responsibilities to same-sex couples. The two bills could also mean that any of the 54,000 existing maintenance orders made under BC law could be reopened. Under the bills, the province would adopt federal guidelines for support payments, which are based on the non-custodial parent's income. For example, a person in BC with an annual income of $33,700 paying support for two children would pay $479 a month. As well, people who don't make child-support payments would be unable to renew their driver's license...." A couple weeks ago, Glen Clark (BC's premiere) met with the heads of all religious orders. The Anglican Church was the only one to back Clark's possible blls. All other churches do not want to see these bills passed. I'm guessing within the next couple weeks there will be quite the uproar within the legislature. These bills will be the first (as far as I know ) in Canada to recognize the fact that there are same-sex couples. I believe there's also something about same-sex couples receiving the same benefits as married couples (or something along those lines). The term "spouse" has come up in debate a number of times. One of the MLA's, Ted Nebbling, of West Vancouver-Garibaldi is gay and has a partner. However, he is not happy about the term "spouse" in referral to his partner. "Spouse" has never had such important implications before (or so I think). If you like, I'll keep you updated. Do let me know.

My favourite, tho, was the Portland, Oregon show, december 15, 1996. My friend Maureen & i were in the sixth row on the floor, right next to the isle(thanks MEIN!!!), to Melissa*s left as she would be looking at the audience. We had those glowies on(thanks to the Divine SueD!), Maureen*s around her neck, mine on my head. We both felt like Melissa sang to & looked at us a lot during the show which was a thrill, let me tell you! We kept looking at each other, like, did you see THAT??? After she*d goofed & forgotten the opening line to IRLY(due to being momentarily stunned after looking into marcymango*s eyes, right marcy???), & also goofed up on her guitar chord at one point, i really felt like she was looking right at us, & getting support by how we were bobbing along to the music & grinning our fool heads off, even tho she was making mistakes. To me, her mistakes just made her human, & made her show more personal. In her between song dialogue, she mentioned all the "light-crack-people" that she could see. How it was nice because it was dark for her when she looked out at the audience, & she had the spotlights glaring into her eyes, but she*d look out & see all these lights. She pointed to all the necklace bearers in the audience & said something like "poop, poop, poop", like you*d say to a child you were playing with. Then she pointed at Maureen & i, i SWEAR!!!, & told us "oh-no, you*re separated from the rest of your people! They*re all over there, but you*re over here!", & she pointed to a group wearing necklaces to her right, & at us at the same time. She was talking right to us!!!!!!!! & i felt like she kept right on singing to us off & on for the rest of the show. WOW. A highlight for sure. Then, this same show, we got back to the little stage in plenty of time, (thanks to *rhondda*s* experienced teachings!), for me to be right at the stage, leaning on it with both my arms, plenty ahead of time. ***** (Diagram of small stage done by M1chelle) ********* Good diagram, by the way ! ***** (i took the liberty of stealing it to use below). ;-) --------------------------------- l l me----->l Melissa l<---barricade l l ^---SueD Tim Dunker----> l l l (kenny) l --------------------------------- i was belly up to the stage. We left our seats in sixth row on the floor to Melissa*s left, once Melissa did her "guitar thing", lying on the stage with her guitar, playing it. i wouldn*t miss that! i had a bag of pink cotton candy (candy floss, where i come from) in my hands on the stage, so i could eat it if i wanted to, also so it wouldn*t get squished against the stage, also because i knew Melissa liked "cotton candy fingers". ;-} When she appeared from the dark, onto the little stage, & had finished the song with the portable mike, but before the band joined her, the techies put up a microphone stand near her. She took this, put the portable mike into it, then picked up the stand & put it RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!!! & my hands & my cotton candy, lying there on the stage, oh so comfy in my good view spot. i was so dumbfounded, i was looking at the base of the stand, SOOOO CLOSE to me, thinking YIKES!!, i*m in the WAY!!, so i backed my hands with the candy floss bag more towards my chest, wanting to get out of the way, but the damn stand was being pushed TOWARDS me as i pulled my hands away. i looked up, away from my hands & the base of the stand, my mouth hanging open, & there she was, RIGHT THERE, not three feet away!!! What a view! My mouth dropped further open, & she looked at me, with her mouth forming kinda like "oohoohoohoo!!!" (gotcha!!) with that little raised-eyebrow-thingy she does. Then she looked ahead again, preparing for the next song with this huge smile on her face. What a thrill !!!!!! My heart STILL pounds to think about it. That little stage was so great, especially when you had "inside info" (thanks to the list, & *rhondda*) & knew when to head there to get a good spot. WOW. i couldn*t believe how close the band was. i could read the name on John*s black boot heel, tho don*t ask me what it said now. i kept staring at Melissa*s little feet, & how she tied her shoes. i could see the shoe expanding width-wise as she moved her weight to that foot. i noted the hems of her pants(weren*t they the shiny baggy ones?). i saw the strings vibrating on her guitar i was so close, & the word adamas on the back of it, & the little wrinkles in her knuckles as they held the pick. Didn*t she have that black sparkly overshirt on? i saw a lot of white teeth in her upper jaw, not a lot of fillings like i have, & had a good view of the roof of her mouth. i*m grinning like a fool just remembering all this. i tell ya, i was one happy puppy. i musta had a look on my face like a kid watching a circus. That little stage was a great idea. i saw a little boy give Melissa a big piece of paper with his words on it "Melissa U are the only one" or something to that effect. That was at the end of the b-stage set, right near where the down ramp off the stage went. She put her pick right into that boy*s hand as she went off the stage. From where i watched the small stage show, i could see "the famous" Tim Dunker. i remember seeing him a ways to my right. John Shanks "booted" him in the chest as he left at the end of his part of the little stage show. Tim is VERY tall, dark hair, short on sides & long on top, small roundish glasses. My friend Maureen & i met him in Spokane with *rhondda* at Jib*s house. He was very sick while we travelled with him, but he was so generous. He gave us front row ticket seats in Spokane, even tho we already had second row(thanks to MEIN). He gave us a Melissa guitar pick at the Portland show, & a string from Melissa*s Ovation, used at the Denver show, when we met him at Jib*s place. He showed us his foto collection, too, & he had some nice fotos there. At the end of one show, he brought us water & cups, & shared it all out. & i was so thirsty by the end of that show, it was great to have a drink. My mouth was so dry!(i learned a lesson from that show, & that was why i bot candy floss, so i wouldn*t have dry mouth, i*d have something to eat.) ;-) Geez, we had such good experiences with all the people we met. & "mean" (MEIN) gave us good seats for all three shows we went to. My MEIN membership for the year was worth it, just for the good seats we got at all three shows. i know other people got lousy seats from them, tho.

Therefore, when Joyce's "Our Little Secret" came out, I just couldn't spare the time to read it. Then, when my summer break rolled around, I couldn't find a copy of the book anywhere. Fortunately, I finally received a very special copy of the book, from a very special lister (a million thanks again.) :) I know that many here have already read the book and many reviews have already been posted, but I need to add my two cents. I've been on this list for about 2 years now and I've read the FAQ, so much of the information in the book was no secret at all. However (and this is a BIG however,) what I knew before were a bunch of facts about Melissa. After reading Joyce's book, I now know the story. Joyce's writing is intelligent and often hilarious. The story of the tambourine lady had me LOL. I also enjoyed reading about other list members. It was fun to turn the pages and spot the names of people who have become so dear to me over these past two years. Also, the pictures of Melissa are just wonderful. Despite the fact that I knew much about Melissa already, Joyce's book added so much more to my knowledge of her. At times, I'd be reading about something that I already knew about only to have Joyce surprise me with tidbits of information that enhanced the story. If you haven't read the book yet, I highly recommend it. It's a must for any Real Fan (tm). I read the book everyday on my lunch hour at my summer job. Throughout the book I would catch myself grinning from ear to ear and realized that my co-workers were giving me funny looks. I then spent every lunch hour since in a small conference room in the back of the office all by myself - - just me and Joyce's book. I guess you could say, it was *my* little secret. :) Michelle "You can sweep your emotions under the rug, but eventually you'll trip over the lump that they make." - M Something ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 23 Jul 1997 08:02:55 -0400 From: "Deyoung, Susan @ GNPMO" Subject: RE: *etheridge* NMEC: My weekend with the Urban Femme Squad It is time, I must bring the truth to this community after spending a weekend with such an amazing group of folks...be prepared! >Redsocks wrote & Diane responded: >>The haze of a Newcastle/kamikaze hangover slowly clears .... >Not to mention Cherry wheat, cider, and on and on.... What hangover! Heavens to murgatroid folks! Lets see, once again Shirl the marvy curl girl and I proved that beer, its not just for breakfast anymore. Witnesses, we have witnesses, Lis & Randy can vouch for this! Educational content: waiting for the train we played a sesame street game. One of these people doesn't fit in...you figure out who it would have been! The traditional train ride in was followed by our stopping at the first of many bathrooms, Penn Station. Alas, our friend from the Fourth of July weekend was not there to show us to our individual stalls. :( To get over the sadness, we stopped and got beers for the ride down to Nanny's. And of course we got into the taxi only to be educated by the radio show the driver had on. Anybody need to know anything about menopause? Didn't think so. For some reason, the taxi driver took offense to our boisterous presence and shut the plastic divider. Harumph to him, we just got louder! > > >>We met at noon outside Crazy Nanny's.

It was pretty entertaining to see the crowd gathered around the tiny little women's rest room in the Lamb. Can you say tourists? But thankfully our intrepid party talked Shirl out of the butch attack. She was bound and determined to earn that butch badge this weekend but somehow a ball cap with one of those fem scrunchy things holding her ponytail together just didn't quite fit the bill. (And of course the ever present curls!) > > >As for the waitress, her rendition of follow the bouncing b_ _ _ (and that >isn't ball!), would make romper room proud! WooooHoooo! I must give Matt credit for hanging in there while I was avidly drooling, ooops, er um, waiting for the waitress to finish making her choices. I could have sworn they had live entertainment at the Lamb on weekends.... But no one mentioned the game so...it was a good time for all. Shirl, Lisa, Randy, & I were sitting somewhere near the nose bleed section but stillhad a good view of the court. I must say, when the Liberty takes the court the light show and fan response were a real adrenaline kick. I was alittle distracted by that Sparks point guard, but eventually realized there were TWO teams on the court. Randy and her intrepid video camera managed to catch Shirl and I doing the white girl dancing thing in the stands. Blackmail material is mounting way too fast... > > >>After the game, we walked back to the Village and went to Nanny's for more >>drinking and white-girl-dancing. >Yes, we gave Nanny's another chance and we are happy to say they were open >at 7pm on a Saturday.

Harumph, we had to spend our own money on the juke box. Shirl's charm was not working on the barkeep that night. But we managed to take over for a little while and stuff the jukebox with Melissa tunes. We were chastised for not being loud enough when doing our initial Mean People Suck toast. Welllllll, we cranked up the volume for the follow-on WE GOT NEXT!!!!!! explosion led expertly by Karen.

A good sport and fun person to have along on the excursion. Thankfully we had plenty of Abba to dance to (badly, verrrry badly on my part) and various wrestling opportunities to join in on. Ya never know what you'll run across in Henrietta's. After Shirl's bball challenge, the crowd kept sneaking glances at Shirl.

"Family-support laws extended to B.C. gays: If a same-sex couple splits up, they now face same legal responsibility toward children as heterosexuals" written by Jim Beatty for the Vancouver Sun July 23, 1997 BC has become the first Canadian province to apply family-support laws to same-sex couples, giving them the same responsibilities for family support and child maintenance as their heterosexual counterparts. The passage of Bills 31 and 32 in the legislature Monday night and Tuesday means that when gay and lesbian couples separate, they will be responsible for child custody, access and maintenance in the same fashion as heterosexual couples. Gay MLA Tim Stevenson called the legislation a significant step toward full equality of gays and lesbians. "This will be celebrated throughout the community, not only here in BC but all across the country." Lesbian lawyer barbara findlay, who represents a gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender group known as the December 9 Coalition, called it a huge step toward full equality. (Findlay spells her name with lower-case letters.) "This is a first in North America. No jurisdiction has legislated recognition of same-gendered couples on the same basis as common-law couples until now," she said in an interview. "We are enormously proud to be British Columbians and to have a government with the vision and integrity to ensure the rights of all its people." Many church leaders objected to the legislation. Attorney-General Ujjal Dosanjh admitted he received hate mail on the issue and some MLA's objected to the bills, but the legislature debate over the same-sex bills never became negative or partisan. In Ontario, former NDP (new democrat) premier Bob Rae tried to pass legislation giving more adoption rights to same-sex couples but a huge uproar forced him to hold a free vote in the legislature that defeated it. The reason it was easier in BC, said Stevenson, is that the province has been incrementally making its laws more equitable for gays and lesbians rather than forcing huge changes all at once. In addition, "there was not the division within the (NDP) caucus that there was in Ontario," he said. All members of the house voted for the legislation with the exception of: Liberals Jeremy Dalton (West Vancouver-Garibaldi), John van Dongen (Abbotsford), Rick Thorpe (Okanagan-Penticton), Barry Penner (Chilliwack), Bill Barisoff (Okanagan-Boundary), Kevin Krueger (Kamloops-North Thompson), Reni Masi (Delta North), Paul Nettleton (Prince George-Omenica) and Progressive Democratic Alliance leader Gordon Wilson. In an interview, Dalton said he didn't hear from one constituent who favored the legislation. "I think the traditional family values are being compromised," he said. "There are certain basics in our society and I would like to see them maintained." Liberal MLA Ted Nebbeling, who is openly gay, objected to the language in the legislation, saying he would never refer to his partner as his spouse. The Liberals unsuccessfully proposed an amendment that would have referred to same-sex couples as "domestic partners." "In the gay community that I frequent, there is really a sense of discomfort in being called a spouse," Nebbeling said in an interview. But despite his semanic objections, Nebbeling voted in favor of the legislation because "this is a good bill for kids...Nobody should ever be able to walk away [from children] without having responsibility." there ya have it. IT PASSED! i agree with Stevenson when he says "this will be celebrated...." i mean, i don't have any kids but this ensures a little more stability in whatever family the child comes from. observing an early start, jen ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 23 Jul 1997 14:54:55 -0700 From: John Miller Subject: *etheridge* more FERRON (NMEC) I have received some private email asking about some of the recent Ferron discussion on this list... some of you who have attended recent shows of the Indigo Girls have seen Ferron opening at a few IG shows and want to know more about her... two people have asked me why all the 'sudden' talk about her... though it's a little strange for me to hear the word 'sudden' associated with Ferron as she's been *performing* longer than many on this list have been walking the planet. :) Ferron is a Vancouver-based poet/musician who's been sharing her music with us for about 25 years. Many of her songs became anthems of the women's movement of the 1970's, and continue to be favorite sing-alongs at her shows. Most of her songs speak personally of coming to terms with the demons we all have in our lives (both the demons we've met, and the demons we have yet to encounter)... her lyrics can be both deceptively humorous and deeply moving, as are her live performances. Some people have told me they love her lyrics but have trouble getting past her untrained voice, a voice of fairly narrow range, and one few would call 'pretty'... though I have come to love it. For those who are interested in exploring her work, I suggest trying what I consider her masterwork, "Driver". But no recording can do her live shows justice, and if you're able to see her live, I'm confident you'll be pleasantly surprised, and maybe even deeply moved... I always see some people in tears after her shows. She's currently touring with a 3-piece band consisting of Jami Sieber (an *amazing* electric cello player from Seattle), Shelley Jennings (an excellent guitarist from Boston), and Craig Kaleal (a drummer from Winnipeg whose style can be both delicate and powerful). If you have trouble finding her work in music stores, try some local women's bookstores... they need our business, and you may just find lots of other music there you never knew existed... I've found those who work in these stores to be very knowledgable, and always willing to help me find new music which might interest me. Other alternatives are the Ferron web-site or Ladyslipper which is work checking out even if not for Ferron's music. For those who live near Sacramento California, Ferron is playing tonight (Wednesday) at the Palms Playhouse in Davis. For those attending the San Diego Pride fest this weekend, Ferron and her band will be performing. Current tour schedule can always be found at her web-site.

My apologies if this has already been posted today; I'm on the digest. Not A Still Life (which is, btw, an excellent album & a great introduction to Ferron's music) is available through Ladyslipper (http://www.ladyslipper.org). If you don't have web access, drop me a line and I'll look up their snail mail address and/or phone number for you. Ladyslipper is an *excellent* place to start if you're looking for any music by women, in any genre; plus, they are really nice people! Please don't copy this album (or, as Glenna said, any other commercially available recording). Ferron and Ladyslipper both need the business in order to keep doing what they do! Speaking of women who do what they do, y'all really should check out the new cd by Michelle Malone, "Beneath the Devil Moon." I think it would be of interest to most MLE fans. MM has a gorgeous, gorgeous voice (*swoon*) and her songs mostly rock pretty hard while still being quite melodic and lyrical. If you're looking for a singer/songwriter who plays a fierce guitar and has at least as much passion as MLE, Michelle will make you happy! She's an incredible live performer as well. The CD just came out last week, and I found it at my local Borders, but I bet Ladyslipper has it by now, too.

That sounds like the site I was looking for:-) And tell your boss that your productivity will increase tremendously through Melissa's inspiring songs. Tell him/her that you will "Never Be the Same;" that you have "Nowhere to Go" while you're sitting there slaving away, trying to remain "Brave and Crazy;" he/she will have to "Bring you Some Water" while you are experiencing this "Precious Pain" of Melissa's long absence from the stage; I know he/she must be "Watching You" so ask him/her "Don't You Need?" If that doesn't work, tell him/her that you can "Dance Without Sleeping" but you can work without "Talking to Your Angel," even if it's only "Occasionally." Good Luck!

Anybody on the list familiar with Zrazy, the female duo from Dublin, Ireland? These women are hot (and I'm not just talkin' bout their pics on the CD cover). Their sound is definitely not folk. One of the press reviews posted on their website: http://homepages.iol.ie/~zrazy/ describes it as, "Brilliant...Ranging from hardcore techno to soft undulating dance rythms, and from funky disco to unadulterated balads...such a diverse creation. And Zrazy says this about their sound: "Some People say its a Jazz Thing. Some People say its a Queer Thing. Or a Female Hip-Hop, Conscious Rap Thing. Some hear the roots of Traditional Irish Music. A Female Pagan Wildness." Let me say that it ain't two women strumming folk guitars (not that I don't like women who strum folk guitars mind you). When I first listened to their U.S. debut CD, "Come Out Everybody," it immediately put me in mind of Alison Moyet, especially the Upstairs at Eric's CD and Joe Jackson. So if you like techno-pop/jazz/dance-type music like me, then run, don't walk to the nearest music store and check these women out. I especailly like the song, "Kissing" and the title track, "Come Out Everybody." The CD was released in North America on Pure Records this April. From what I can tell, this is Zrazy's third CD. The two earlier ones were produced on their own label, ALFI in Ireland.

I've been thinking about this proposition for a day or so, and whilst I understand the writer's point, it seems to me to be exactly the opposite: that the new women's music (NWM) of MLE, IG, & kd (especially) mainly derives from mainstream popular music to traditional women's music (TWM), with only minor links to traditional women's music. However, both kinds of music *primarily* address a similar kind of audience, which is the key linkage between the two, and which may have led to the confusion. First, I would argue that the new women's music is part of the "strong women in popular music" tradition, which both pre- and post-dates the heyday of women's music and crosses genres including jazz, blues, and country as well as pop and rock. (See for example Lucy O'Brien's book on women in music, _She Bop_.) Hence, Melissa, IG, and k d probably have a lot more in common in their relationship to the music industry with Bonnie Raitt, Chrissie Hynde, and Annie Lennox than with traditional women's music, which is in essence non-commercial. Second, the larger, and more important, difference seems to me to be in the discrepancy between the philosophy and world views underlying the two kinds of women's music. It seems to me that most TWM is essentially exclusionary, personal, and closed, whilst NWM is inclusionary, universal, and open. By this I mean that: * Exclusionary vs. inclusionary -- TWM seeks to address mainly "women-identified" women; NWM both women and men, straight and gay. * Personal vs. universal -- TWM is less about generic situations than particular, ones, e.g. coming out; NWM about universal situations, e.g. falling in/out of love * Closed vs. open -- WM is about I/us/my cat vs. them (the straight world) relationships, but NM is about I/you or us/you relationships (within the larger world). In fact, to me the essence of traditional women's music is that it focuses predominately on the "outsider" experience -- of being gay or lesbian and therefore different and outside of society -- whilst the new women's music focuses on representing a different viewpoint within -- whilst remaining part of -- the mainstream (e.g., "It's Alright" or "I Could Have Been You"). This difference is typified by NWM's use of non-gender-specific referents, making it more accessible to everyone. (It's hard to imagine Amy and Emily singing songs like "Leaping Lesbians" or "Ode to a Gym Teacher", isn't it?) And this is the difference that leads me to say that they represent different, yet parallel, paths. The above isn't to knock women's music, although I listen to a lot less of it than in my college days, when I used to play Margie/Meg/Chris at full volume in the sorority house , and I've probably been to more women's music concerts than the young whippersnapper on this list have had hot tofu pups for dinner. Traditional women's music has certainly provided a lot of good examples, such as the feasibility of independent record production and distribution, the importance of grass-roots support, and maintaining control of one's own career that would be hard to find in the careers of the girl groups and dolly-bird singers of the 60s (or 90s for that matter). Any thoughts? Anyone? I hate to start a discussion and run, but I'm off til Monday. (I'm still working on my "Great Moments in the History of Negativity" list, never fear.)

Our dear Patti has made great strides - completing the "How To Change a Flat Tire in 105 degree heat" Program in one evening. (Oh man, where WAS my camera?) Not only did she manage to change most of the tire all by herself, but made the experience even more enjoyable to by-standers (well, ok - just me) by recounting a similar incident after certain Dallas MLE concert. Apparently having many Melisters all working on the same project results in lots of advice, but may be a little slower when it comes down to actual *progress*. (not actually having been there myself, this is all second-hand observation). Anyone participating in the tarp-project at the FF this year may or may not be able to back me up on this theory. side note: we're noticing a strange phenomenon involving a combination of Patti, Melisters, and flat tires occuring at the same time. Coincidence? maybe...further study is required. Patti also earns extra B.I.T. merit points for going to work withOUT any makeup on! So, for the Devine SueD, Shirl the soap dispenser-abusing Batgirl, and any other Melisters keeping track, Patti is well on her way to earning her merit badge.

Just bought this CD and have to second this recommendation. I first heard of MM when I read a review of her former band, "Band de Soleil," that described her as sounding like "Melissa Etheridge with an edge." Don't know if I'd say that 'cause it implies that MLE doesn't have an edge, and I just don't agree with that! I do agree with Anne's description though. MM's a great singer, she can rock - but she also does some jazzy stuff. Also bought Laura Love's new CD, "Octoroon." She describes her music as "Afro-Celt" and she plays very funky bass. Another great musician. If you're not familiar with her, "The Laura Love Collection" is a good starting place.

Seeing as we're all a little starved for Melissa-news, I thought I'd post it to the list. The article is on PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) and the organization's use of celebrities to promote its cause. In April '95, Melissa and Julie Cypher posed for a promotional ad, in which the two of them are featured lying together, naked, with a caption that reads "We'd rather go naked than wear fur". To any Melisters who haven't yet seen this picture, they DID include it in the article. (a MUST see!) The article briefly mentions Melissa's involvement with the campaign: Once happy to pose naked with her partner, Julie Cypher, for an anti-fur PETA ad, Melissa Etheridge has subsequently distanced herself from the group because of its position on animal testing. "My father died of cancer, and I've lost too many friends to AIDS," said the husky-voiced pop star. "So I do believe in animals losing their lives to eradicate cancer and AIDS from our lives; I believe in that." side note: husky-voiced pop star?!? Puh-leeeeze. ;) Personally, I agree with Melissa's stand - not that my opinion matters - but I do feel that a human life is worth the effort.

Don't make me come and grab you by the ear!!! ;) Hmm...not to mention any names or anything, but we're hoping that Janis & Claudia, Liz Spector, Tonya & Ola, and Tiger Lily & Tasha will at least join us for dinner at The Bronx in Oak Lawn before heading over to the bar. (subtle enough for ya? ) It would be a shame for you all to miss this historic event....and with such wonderful non-Texans to share it with! :) OK...see ya there!! We're heading out today to visit eLIZaBURN and Mich in Austin, so all's we gotta say is....PARTY ON!!! :) "Jen Jensen" introduced herself to us all: >Hi!

Welcome, Jen!! btw, some of us aren't THAT old....though Lizzard **is** pushing the Big 4-0, though she doesn't really want anyone to know ;) (can't wait to sing HB to ya, Liz!) So Jen...just jump right in and join the fray!

I don't think you even suspect how truly ugly this could be. But for the moment, i'll refrain from the pure evilness and opt for being a little ugly. >(can't wait to sing HB to ya, Liz!)

Thanks for the offer tho. :) And as for the age comment, all i can really say is that you really shouldn't be so petty and jealous that when people meet me they think i'm 24 and when they meet you they think you're 45. I guess i just hide my age better than you do. Then again, i haven't had people writing with Sharpie markers all over my belly and face.

She describes her > music as "Afro-Celt" and she plays very funky bass. Another great > musician. A friend and I went to see the Laura Love Band on the recommendation of an aquaintance. We were blown away. They are great musicians, have all the energy of Ani DiFranco with less overt anger, and (IMHO) better dancing. They had a fiddler (from Romanticly Ranch - ??) with them at the show I saw. I've never heard blues fiddle before, it was interesting. I'm still not sure about the "Afro-Celt" label. After the show a group of us tried to figure out what the music might be based in. Santana was mentioned, but how do we account for the Beatles song they re-worked as a polka? Love mentioned the Seattle grunge scene and I enjoyed the "Nirvana" song, but my friend nearly died at the yodeling (she can't stand yodeling). Two of the band members have albums of their own, and each did a cut from his/her album - both were blues songs. As you can probably tell, it was a rather diverse night of music. Octoroon paled in comparison to the live show. Laura Love and her band are still touring, you can check out Musical for dates. So, what musicians/bands are other MLE fans going to see while waiting for the subject of this list to tour? Other highlights of my concert going over the past several months have been Dee Carstensen (she plays a full size blue? purple? harp and has two great musicians backing her), Indigo Girls (my first time, as good as I'd heard), Lyle Lovett (I can't remember the last time I saw a band where there were sooooo many good backing musicians that there wasn't enough time in a 2 hour, then 2 encore, show for all of them to shine, fantastic blues based show!), Wynonna (short but really polished show), and Mary Chapin Carpenter (who was so loose last night she had to skip one song - I don't remember her ever talking so much to an audience or ever laughing so much or so hard at one of her shows). If you like jazz based folk, or Cheryl Wheeler, go see Vance Gilbert.

I'm doing it again, but this time.... Mary gets to do all the hard work, right Mary? The shirts will be re-made, I am waiting for my supplier to bring me samples of different materials, and he will also quote the cost to me. They will again be purple, the only difference from last year's will be the MElisters mailing address. The screens that were made for the silk screening, still exist, and they will just be re-used. Mary and I have chattted about how this will all come together. Mary is responsible for orders and payments, I will be responsible for production and shipping. Having already taken on the entire responsibility twice before, I was unwilling to go it again, but splitting the tasks between us, seems a lot more reasonable. Mary has the energy, drive and time that I do not, she is a wonderful lady who has seems to have the whole thing together. The shirts will not go into production until Mary has received your payments, I made the mistake last year of ordering the shirts before all the payments were received. But I will let Mary handle all the communication to the interested parties. I am in the absolute busiest time of year and sometimes it is days before I get the chance to read my e-mail, so please please please do not place your orders with me. Mary knows who is interested and, if there are others who want one of these shirts please contact Mary Leblanc e-mail at . She will be unable to give you a price just yet, cause my supplier has not yet gotten back to me. I just want to take a second and thank those who wrote to Mary about me and the shirts. I feel very good about them being produced again, and I feel even better about having someone like Mary handling the tough part of the project. For now, I'm going to get some sleep, 27 days down of non stop work, only 11 more days until I get a day off.... Yippee!!!! Sounds like Joh Miller, hi John!!!

What are the odds of having someone from St. Louis, MO on my bus going on a glacier tour who just happens to be reading the book by Joyce Luck. Pretty slim I would guess, but I just met and spent several hours with this wonderful lady. She was here in Banff, Canada with her sister on a convention, and just happened to be on my tour to the Athabasca Glacier in Jasper National Park. I noticed her band jacket and asked if she was a musician, and who her favs were. The answer was ME. Well I asked if she had seen the biography, and she told me it was sitting in her room at the hotel. We talked and shared Melissa experiences and she told me she is quite friendly with one of ME's first cousins. Chic is a St. Louis based rock and blues musician who is very talented, we played darts, watched Melissa videos and she played my Melissa twice autographed guitar. She does an incredible 6 song ME medley, including Back Door, Testify, Come to my Window, Talking To My Angel, No Souvenirs, and oops I can't remember the last one. It was wonderful to hear ME songs coming from the ME signed guitar, first time that has ever happened. On Chic's promotional 4 song CD she does a wonderful revamped version of an old Melissa tune called, I Told You So. I gave her one of the purple bowling shirts that I saved for myself, but now, she is soooo excited about going to her next ME show so that she can meet more of the MElisters Bowling Team. Sadly Chic does not have a computer, but is a member of MEIN. If you live in the St. Louis area, and have the opportunity to check out her show, I highly reccommend it. If you know of her, please drop me a line I would love to hear from you. She can be found 5 nights of the week in bars in and around St. Louis, most of the time in Women's bars. On a nother note, had the fantastic opportunity to do phone shots with Liz, Patty, Bec and Mich in Austin this weekend, of course it was a "mean people suck" toast and Saturday night, Chic and I drank a toast to the closing of the Ridge!!! Miss you all, next post... about the Purple Bowling Shirt!!

Lizzard - you're really almost 40?? Yup, tis true...in 9 years, i'll be 40. that counts as almost...at least to patti....then again, she's probably absorbed *soooo* much ink from the sharpie marker at the FF that it had a nasty effect when combined with the large amounts of alcohol. She probably has a hard time separating the truth from fiction. Which would explain why she's so deluded into thinking that i'm almost 40. Then again, the fact that i just turned 30 last year, must've sounded like 40 to her old ears. Yeah, that explains it. ;) I'm positive that Old Lady Finkster (OLF) put you up to this comment. Everyone i know who knows me (or at least has seen me up close in person) doesn't think i look anywhere close to 40. Oops, i guess i shouldn't generalize like that since patti seems to have that delusion lately. ;) Hey Renster, do you realize that patti is calling you old too? I mean, c'mon, we're almost the same age (within months). I'm surprised that you haven't commented on it yet. geez.... Then again, if i were patti's age (40ish?!) and chasing after a hot young chic (how old is she? 18?) i don't think i'd be making age comments to other people much younger than myself. Hell, if you put the Divine sueD and OLF next to each other, you'd definitely think that sueD was *much* younger. But i'm not saying that sueD looks old - just that patti does. sueD still looks like a spring chicken. ;) OLF on the other hand, well, lets say that she looks more like a winter hen... Next time any of you get together with Old Lady Finkster, be sure to take a Sharpie along. And right after she does her first shot, make sure you show it to her....it makes for an interesting reaction. ;) And even more so if you periodically show it to her throughout the night... later y'all... lizzard ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Jul 1997 09:21:35 -0400 From: Colleen Lanthrip Subject: *etheridge* etheridge-nmec-gwen gwen wrote: >>calling all D.C.

I don't know anyone personally, but 30 is not old at all. 80 is old. Who cares about age though. Hey you're only as old as you feel. Age is nothing but a number. Old enough to know better, too young to care. And what is wrong with 18 yr olds. Reminds me of an old saying they might not know what they're doing, but they can do it all night long. And, yes youngsters can make you loose your mind :D (in Dallas, contemplating a rain-dance to cool things off around here!) Renee, you should be here.

Chic is a fantastic musician and performer here in St. Louis. I have her 4 track CD, and it's one of my faves. She does great MLE covers, and I like to pretend that seeing her play is similar to hearing MLE back in the old days in the bars. I would have loved to have been there, but it didn't happen. Chic is my substitute, I guess. She plays at various places around town, but I usually go to Earnies. So, if any of you MElisters happen to be in the area sometime, drop me an email and I'll be happy to let you in on "our little secret." Sharon sarouw@monsanto.com Sunday posting from Joyce: she told me she is quite friendly with one of ME's first cousins. Chic is a St. Louis based rock and blues musician who is very talented, we played darts, watched Melissa videos and she played my Melissa twice autographed guitar. She does an incredible 6 song ME medley, including Back Door, Testify, Come to my Window, Talking To My Angel, No Souvenirs, and oops I can't remember the last one. It was wonderful to hear ME songs coming from the ME signed guitar, first time that has ever happened. On Chic's promotional 4 song CD she does a wonderful revamped version of an old Melissa tune called, I Told You So. I gave her one of the purple bowling shirts that I saved for myself, but now, she is soooo excited about going to her next ME show so that she can meet more of the MElisters Bowling Team. Sadly Chic does not have a computer, but is a member of MEIN. If you live in the St. Louis area, and have the opportunity to check out her show, I highly reccommend it. If you know of her, please drop me a line I would love to hear from you. She can be found 5 nights of the week in bars in and around St. Louis, most of the time in Women's bars. ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Jul 1997 15:18:24 PDT From: "Gesi Rovario" Subject: *etheridge* Weeds Hi all. This is my first post (I think ;) to the list, so I hope I'm following all the rules (like I ever do that). Anyway, a couple of weeks ago I was flipping thorough the channels and I caught the credits of Weeds (1987) that credited Melissa with writing four of the songs: I wanna go home Weeds, Burn and Body Search (written with Orville Stoeber). I watched it a few days later. Nick Nolte stars with a lot of guys I know, but can't think of their names. It's a good movie, and I wanna go home is an absolutely beautiful song. So, was I the only one surprised to find this out? :^} Gesi *I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.

(and that's all I'll evah be!) Oh, BTW, I do not use a curling iron, and on weekdays, only wear mascara to work. Hell, who am *I* kidding, that's about all the makeup I EVER wear! And as for high heels- left 'em behind a while ago. This is not to say I cannot don these accessories, garments, etc., make up my face and go to town anytime, but it's such a hassle- so why should I if I don't have to? Besides, I look sufficiently "girly" in my jeans and sneakers. Ask any of my pals- assuming I still have anyone left out there who wants to be friends with such an old lady (excluding LizE, of course, cause she's a fossil too!) Okay, so now in closing, I will quote another famous wit, Forrest Gump- "...And that's all I have to say about that..."

What's next... [mlebl@infonet.ca (Mary Lebla] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 29 Jul 1997 13:31:13 -0400 From: mlebl@infonet.ca (Mary Leblanc) Subject: *etheridge* Voting Results! What's next... Hi MEListers! What a wonderfully supportive group we have! Thanks to all who have emailed me with personal remarks. I finished up reviewing the voting results. Not as many people voted in comparison to the number that contributed their ideas. I figure many people are away on holidays or ignoring their computers while the sun is shining... wherever that is!! When I look over everything as a whole, the voting was a good representation of the original contribution of ideas. Bowling shirts (58). Baseball jerseys (47) Golf shirts (16). T-shirts will not be ordered. There are many who will buy one or more of each. If you didn't vote, don't worry. I think (hope) we'll be able to order all three types eventually. Here is the plan: Joyce and I are going to do a bowling shirt order first because everything is ready. She has to check out a few things first regarding prices, shipping, material, colour and size availability. When we have more info, we'll pass it on. When it's time to order, we'll announce it and set a cut-off date. Important note: I do not have MLE's income. Therefore, all orders will have to be paid in advance with a money-order. This is an international project. Everything will take a lot of time, so we will not say that orders will be taken only for a week. Start saving your money now, and things will go smoother for everyone. Once the bowling shirt order is finished, the logo contest should be over and all members will vote on the logo that will go on the new shirts. Now that I know what people want, I can start talking to shirt vendors here to get prices. I'm hoping that they'll be flexible to allow baseball jerseys and golf shirts in the same order. The baseball jersey produced a lot of comments and requests. Some want the kind that you put over your head with no buttons. Others want the old buttoned baseball jersey style. Most people want a cotton-poly blend as opposed to 100% polyester. While we're waiting for the logo contest to finish, we could discuss this. What do you want: pullover or buttoned? No one agreed on colour... (help!!) Make the subject of your email: PULLOVER OR BUTTONED (here we go again!!! hahaha!) Someone suggested that I pick something and people can take it or leave it. I think we can decide on something together. We're doing fine so far. We'll narrow the colour down, just watch!!! Get those logos in! You can see them at Nathalie's WEB site: http://www.mygale.org/06/poune/niche/logo.htm (Thank you to the patient ones who read many repetitive postings on this subject. Not everyone sees all postings, and it saves me from writing individual emails.) I've rambled on long enough...

And ofcourse, most importantly, Kate - - whom I met via this list and who quite literally changed my life. She'll still be on the list so no doubt will keep me informed of what you're all up to! Be nice to her, now - you know what a sweet, sensitive little teddy she is... ;) Of course, I've also met some less savoury characters, particularly in the last few weeks, but I'm sure they will one day grow up and who knows - maybe even mature. Hmmmm....NAH! (Oh, BTW, Laurann - was that other digit we had to guess a 0, by any chance ?)

It can be a very creative if not utterly too sappy for your taste, but that's what make's everyone an individual, and the world an interesting place. Sarcasm on: Unsavory? Really? Wow a new label to add to my collection! (although it may not mean me, but I'll take the honors anyway) You estimated 09, dear me a nine year old with this kind of attitude? The horrors.....Think of that child at 40 woah nellie. Grow up? If I grow up any more I will hit most ceilings. I do hope you know that Maturity and age have nothing to do with each other. As far as maturity levels go, People have different levels of maturity in situations, so I emplore you,please don't make a broad based assumption as to our levels of maturity. It's like putting on make up, the trick is to make it look natural and realistic for your self. ie. If you're happy with it why should anyone else care? :Sarcasm off But again good luck in the new adventure and hope for the future. This reminds me of a line from a song by either Motley Crue or Poison: "Girl, don't go away mad" Disclaimer: I guarantee someone is going to take this quote and twist it to be something utterly nasty so be fore warned this is the only part of the line realavent to this conversation the other half of the phrase "just go away" is not being implied,wished for, stated, or recomended by me.

The vocal equivalent of a train >wreck, Seputura's lead screamer joins more Latino and >Latin-wannabe rockers, rappers and raggamuffins for an all-star >consciousness-raising session. The proceeds go to AIDS relief, but the >revelation is the scope and power of artists from all over the Americas >who've staked out sonics beyond salsa. Take Sepultura, Brazil's >death-metal champs, whose version of Bob Marley's "War" neatly >encapsulates many of the trends and motifs caught under the Rock en >Espanol umbrella. There's reggae (Argentina's Los Pericos with Buju >Banton), Third World liberation (Todos Tus Muertos) and punk >iconoclasm (Colombia's Aterciopelados, Argentina's Los Fabulosos >Cadillacs). Noted gringos Money Mark, David Byrne, Cibo Matto and >Melissa Etheridge also help out. > >-- Mark Schwartz MLE's a noted gringo(a), hmm...interesting. IMNSHO, MLE's live version of "Sin Tener A Donder Ir" is much, much better than the rather tepid one on Red Hot + Latin. *rhondda* ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Jul 1997 22:59:49 -0500 From: tlmtcu@flash.net Subject: *etheridge* NMEC made me smile hello all Just had to let *y'all* know that after a long 14 hour day on Monday I came home and read the digest and related messages and they made my day.

I have this vague memory of seeing this person on TV that had on a corduroy jacket, jeans, boots and had spiky hair, but I don't recall what she was singing. I don't think I ever heard her on the radio until YIA came out. Since I never heard her on the radio, I don't know how I ever heard of her, but I have had the red album since it first came out and bought each of the other albums as soon as they were issued. > Worst Lyric I have to admit I don't like that scream at the end of YLS and because I don't really like Ain't It Heavy, which is the first song, I never listened to Never Enough very much. I just recently "discovered" NE again and it's like listening to a brand new album. I just skip AIH and enjoy the rest of the album. Another song that is not my favorite is All American Girl. I can't say why, but it gets on my nerves. > Best Lyric I have an easier time saying my favorite song than just picking out certain lyrics. I really like YCSWID, Watching You, You Used to Love to Dance and This War is Over. I'm The Only One is what goes on when I really want to crank it up. My favorite lyric is not really words but that little breath she takes towards the end of Don't You Need. Good thing CDs don't wear out, because that little spot would be gone. > Worst Concert Does not compute. > Best Concert The first time I saw Melissa live in concert was in Biloxi Miss. in 1995. I had seen a lot of her bootleg videos of previous concerts but the first thing I realized seeing her in person was how wonderful to see her in focus for a change. Anyone that has ever seen a bootleg video knows what I am talking about :-). My one wish was for her to sing You Used to Love to Dance, which she did. It was a terrific version with her singing into a telephone mic at the end of the song. There were two worries at the concert. The security acted like the Gestapo and the only two guys in the whole place were standing right in front of me with their heads together the whole night. I stood on my chair the latter part of the show. I've seen her twice more since then and each time I can't believe she is standing right in front of me. I guess it's back to the bootlegs for a while. Sigh. pk ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ End of etheridge-digest V1 #164 ******************************* From owner-etheridge-digest@esosoft.com Fri Aug 1 06:04:03 1997 Received: from oliver.cs.mcgill.ca (root@oliver.CS.McGill.CA [132.206.3.1]) by lisa.cs.mcgill.ca (8.8.5/8.8.4) with ESMTP id GAA09879 for ; Fri, 1 Aug 1997 06:04:02 -0400 (EDT) Received: from esosoft.com (esosoft.com [192.41.13.64]) by oliver.cs.mcgill.ca (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id GAA10494 for ; Fri, 1 Aug 1997 06:03:58 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost (esosoft@localhost) by esosoft.com (8.8.5) id EAA29156; Fri, 1 Aug 1997 04:02:33 -0600 (MDT) Received: by esosoft.com (bulk_mailer v1.5); Fri, 1 Aug 1997 04:02:33 -0600 Received: (esosoft@localhost) by esosoft.com (8.8.5) id EAA29150; Fri, 1 Aug 1997 04:02:32 -0600 (MDT) Date: Fri, 1 Aug 1997 04:02:32 -0600 (MDT) Message-Id: <199708011002.EAA29150@esosoft.com> From: owner-etheridge-digest@esosoft.com (etheridge-digest) To: etheridge-digest@esosoft.com Subject: etheridge-digest V1 #165 Reply-To: etheridge@esosoft.com Sender: owner-etheridge-digest@esosoft.com Status: RO etheridge-digest Friday, August 1 1997 Volume 01 : Number 165 [none] [halfpint ] Re: *etheridge* Melissa on CCR CD?

FWIW, i've already sent a message to MEIN asking for confirmation, too. someone wrote me privately and said that MLE sang the national anthem before the LA sparks' basketball game last night. i've searched high and low on the net (newspapers, newsgroups, etc.) and have found absolutely nothing that corroborates this. i know we have a lot of women b-ball fans on this list. is this true? was anyone there? anyone got a tape or video of the event? and the most important question: who's going to organize the tape tree? ;-) *rhondda* ****************************************************************** * To unsubscribe, send a message to * * majordomo@majordomo.esosoft.com with: * * "unsubscribe etheridge" if you are on the bounce format * * "unsubscribe etheridge-digest" if you are on the digest format * * Official list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle/ * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 1 Aug 1997 01:12:58 -0400 (EDT) From: Sooz911@aol.com Subject: *etheridge* National Anthem SMEC Wednesday Melissa Etheridge sang the National Anthem before the LA Sparks vs Utah Starzz game.
