Clouds of Fluff Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Thanks for posting this. Very excited to see the Lawrence dates... Wow! Two Lawrence dates. Love Liberty Hall!Also, if I recall correctly, they're to be on SNL tonight. (Might be next week - memory's shot. ) Yeah, I can't believe two dates?! (Too bad they are on a Monday/Tuesday though...oh well...what's sleep during the work week anyway!) Will have to check out SNL too...thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turtlegirl37 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 SNL is next week. Thanks, Mystik Wishful thinking that it was tonight. Got my tix for 2/12 (also hubby's bday). I'm a grad student and will be skipping my stats class that night to go to the show. Will be looking for a nice, legitimate-sounding excuse. Don't tell the prof that I'll really be doing this -----> Hey Clouds of Fluff, where are you located? I'm a country girl, about 35 miles away from Lawrence. I'll be dragging Tuesday a.m., too. Work at 8:30 a.m., with an hour commute. (Sigh.) Good thing I have that dandy new espresso machine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clouds of Fluff Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 We are out in the country too turtlegirl37! Only more like 100 miles from Larry---we live outside of Emporia in the Flint Hills. (Do you know where that is?) Thinking of the show on the 12th as well, but will probably wait a day or two to get tix...hopefully it won't sell out. Are you at KU then? I was in grad school there and took stats as well (okay it's been a *cough* few years ago)...ugh. I certainly think a night of could only help renew your motivation and excitement to learn even more about stats...in fact I think it would be quite necessary. (I'm sure your prof would agree too.)

Clouds of Fluff Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 oh, and Wendy, it seems we like a lot of the same music! (funny that.) Well, of course, the obvious...but Finns, Shins...and now I see my fave Ryan Adams album on your signature. Peaceful Valley Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wendy Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 oh, and Wendy, it seems we like a lot of the same music! (funny that.) Well, of course, the obvious...but Finns, Shins... I know! I love it when that happens! I'm assuming you are a Fruit Bats fan as well? Beulah? ...and now I see my fave Ryan Adams album on your signature. Peaceful Valley I am preparing for the Jan 18th show.

I totally know the Flint Hills. My sis went to ESU, and my extended fam is in OK, so I have driven through your area many many times. I think it's beautiful out there. In fact, my son wants to take his friends to the Tall Grass Reserve area for his bday. Not at KU. I work and go to school in lovely Johnson County. Hoping to ditch that scene pretty soon, as I graduate in May and greener pastures beckon (literally). I'm sure my prof will find your explanation to be quite satisfactory.

In fact, my son wants to take his friends to the Tall Grass Reserve area for his bday. Aww, very nice. Your son has good taste! (how old is he?) It's tough making a living here, but it's the hills that keep us trying I think. And we know lots about ESU as well. LOL (hubby graduated from there...and worked there...and...) Not at KU. I work and go to school in lovely Johnson County. Aww, I'm sorry. Actually if it's any of the schools I know of there, they are all quite good. I actually lived there briefly (in Johnson County)...luckily went to school in the "city" which made it more tolerable. Was glad to high-tail it outta there myself after graduation... Hoping to ditch that scene pretty soon, as I graduate in May and greener pastures beckon (literally). I'm sure my prof will find your explanation to be quite satisfactory. Congratulations! Here's to greener pastures and country living. We are officially going to the show on the 12th now...so maybe we'll see you there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SNL was disappointing, IMHO, but looking forward to the 12th! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Steve Brule Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 SNL was disappointing, IMHO, but looking forward to the 12th! Honsetly, I found them to be one of the most disappointing live bands I have ever seen. For a band whose records I really love, the live show was dull. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bjorn_skurj Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 "Phantom Limb" is not really blowing my mind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
street spirit Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 the show is $35+charges here. that's kinda... expensive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mystik Spiral Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 wow, that's $10 more than tix here... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 the Shins are definitely charging more than they're worth at this point ($25 even) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
street spirit Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 wow, that's $10 more than tix here... well, it's Canadian funds... so it's more like $6usd more or something. but on the whole, i agree with what Solace said. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
