[MONOflans] video online session as the guy on the screen.

[Istanbul] Flanz: Like, when will I get my Hello?
[Molly] OK, strange question: if you could meet anyone in the world, who
+would it be and what would you say?
[kismet] Did you have to use spirit gum to remove the adhesive?
[Ruprecht] call 1-800-DIAL-MTV weekdays at 5:30 EST

[ninja-bob] didn't they already play it?
[eliza] What does the tour schedule look like? * MrDent gets bad Monty Python flashbacks

[MrDent] Hate to do it, but I gotta baillllll John one quick question, what do

[lenny] molly? unstuck?
[eliza] Do you ever get the oppurtunity to go out while on tour? If so where/
[Seta] Will u be in Upstate NY soon?

[etherboy] Flans: Wot is your fiance's name?
[Ruprecht] John: has Superfreaksickle been killed? or will it still come out

+Linnell) to do an interview?

[MONOflans] a lot of covers in TMBG. Most of the covers on Mono Puff are

[Tmbg345] thats cool
[RobNg] Flans: Will you ever get any closer to NH the NY? You could go to

+good thing. Really.)

[MONOflans] Harliquin: I want to step out even more with the Puff, and try to

[Istanbul] AOHell is pure evil. Da Chronic should be hung.
[kismet] "The Puff." How dear.
[Ruprecht1] If I made a tmbg page, would you want me to utilize frames?

[Ruprecht1] er, a Mono Puff page
[Istanbul] Where can I get the Live album?
[kismet] Tony left, replaced by Graham Maby.
[MONOflans] isaac: TMBG within 6 mo.s I'm sure, but until MP has a big fat hit
+I don't think we could pay for the gas.
[eliza] no , MRKLAW I'm in NYC!!

+Hootie and the Blowfish?

[MrKlaw1] Drive Thru records
[Istanbul] Do like most the companies do and pay the stations to play your

[Seta] are u coming back to Ithaca, John?
[Matt1] What will this new TMBG tour be called MonoFlans?
[etherboy] Flans: Have you ever done drugs (besides caffine)?
[RobNg] The whole thing? Santa spoiled your bank robbing scheme?
[kismet] In at least a couple of early TMBG videos, you and Linnell seemed to
+have enjoyed showing closeups of your usually-chomping teeth. What gives,

[Harlequin] MONOFlans: Whataya think of Rochester? :) I saw you here once.
[Istanbul] Some people don't deserve to be famous. Ex: Alanis

[kismet] Echinacea and goldenseal. And pulsatilla. They work wonders, I
+wouldn't steer you wrong.
[Harlequin] Flans: I think you (TMBG) should tour as "Folk Family" or somesuch

[MONOflans] Tmbg345: No.
[Harlequin] Flans: What has inspired the decidedly more "rockin'" sound of

[Seta] John, u should have made Nixon's the One longer, it ROCKS!!!!

[MONOflans] MrKlaw 1: Do it.
[MrKlaw1] OK THANKS JOHN
[Tmbg345] That was quite swank at the Fairfax fair!
[Harlequin] Seta: NTW is cool. My mother got a bit strange when she heard it.
+:)
[MrKlaw1] um...how?
[Seta] :)
[irc] What is "Put your Hand Inside the Puppet Head" about. You guys are
+really cool in the video for it.
[isaac] Mr. Flans: I've got 200' of 16mm film in my fridge. If I shot a music
+video for Nixon's the One, would you like a copy?
[kismet] "Nixon's the One" almost sounds like a Linnell-penned song. Do you
+agree?
[RobNg] It was on dial a song first
[eliza] Yeah!!
[MONOflans] Seta: I had a hard time figuring out what else to say. It is
+really about the slogan "Nixon's the One" which always seems creepy in it's
+double edged meaning.
[irc] "She's An Angel" is a beautiful song. Where did you get the inspiration
+for that?
[Seta] oooh cool :)
[Harlequin] Flans: Did you go see the movie "NIXON"? :)
[MrKlaw1] I'm not joking, John. How can we coordinate with the New York info

[kismet] You look S-E-X-X-Y when you pour that coffee into that cup and

[ninja-bob] why is unsupervised so short?? ] MONOFlans: Any coincidence that Guitar Was the Case sounds rather like Hall
+of Heads without words?
[Tmbg345] How did you get to work with Elina Lowensohn?
[Ruprecht1] I have unsupervised in with 4 other discs...
[Harlequin] I love the lyrics to CSanta. One of the few songs that made me
+laugh when I first heard it. I mean, "fell on my arm and broke it" is just
+such a great line!
[Seta] Guitar Was the Case roxx :)
[kismet] I think it sounds like the theme to "The Munsters." (No offense
+meant.)
[Tmbg345] Oh, and thanks for the signed SPIN cd, i was a lucky winner!
[MONOflans] Seta: Well, the second verse was written as a crazy "alternate" to
+the first, which is kind of a cheap device that i use quite often, but it
+yields good results.
[etherboy] Yes Flans: Seta's Q : Wot inspired Careless?

+of Heads.. I quite like it... :-]

+kind of Santa.
*** Signoff: JuliAnn ((signed off))
[MrKlaw1] Mike sez: I'm thinking that the cool special thing I ought to get,
+being Canadian, and therefore deprived of live Mono Puff, is the signed
+libretto that Flans made. Hmm maybe I dost protest too much...
[destin] MONOflans: How do you feel about the green-tinted jewel cases
+Rykodisc CD's come in? Was that the reason you chose the label?
[kismet] Oh, come on. I really meant no offense. It's great. (I won't even
+mention that when I was a student at ASU in Tempe, I saw the Gin Blossoms,
+then a local band, play "The Munsters" theme all the time.) Now I'm hanging
+my head in shame!
[Seta] John, who is Nancy Lynn Howell? from Dont' i have The right
[irc] In addition to the album coming out this fall are you coming out with
+another in '97?
[Seta] The green jewel cases area awesome
[Seta] are
[MONOflans] destin: I din't dig it at first, because I worried it would make
+the cover look dim
[ninja-bob] green tinted cd cases are pretty neat-o/cool/rockin'
[MrKlaw1] it barely looks green
[Ruprecht1] do you have plans for any more christmas songs?
[kismet] John, what book are you reading these days?
[irc] Rykodisc is a good label, they have Bob Mould.
[eliza] Are you flying to LAS VEGAS? or driving because either way I have a
+good friend who would be interested in going!!!
[MONOflans] But now I think it's fine, because there is so much dust in all
+plastic they look about equally dim
[ninja-bob] I didn't even notice they were green until i saw it in sunlight ] John: What do you think about Wierd Al's "Everything You Know is Wrong?"
[MONOflans] Rykodisk is very cool
[eliza] She'e really crazy tooo!!!
[Seta] just the edges look green
[kismet] Aside from her Hello duties, what has Marjorie Gallen done? Is she a
+producer?
[destin] It's sort of a subliminal color influence... makes everything all
+groovy.
[Ruprecht1] I saw the label that said te tint was copyrighted...
[Tmbg345] Ryco also has The RESIDENTS
[Tmbg345] !!!
[ninja-bob] how can they copyright green tint, anyway?
[Harlequin] Hey, John, did you write DIHTW? I didn't see an alternate writing
+credit on the liner, but I've heard "Connie Champagne" sing it (on a tape
+compilation...)
[Seta] John, you look exactly almost like my cousin's husband :)
[kismet] I found that odd, too.
[etherboy] Rykodisc has the Residents and Flansburgh, wot more could they
+want! B-)
[Ruprecht1] trademark
[irc] Yeah, I wanted to know about that too. The Weird Al song is very TMBG
+derived
[MONOflans] Ruprect: I don't really think of Careless Santa as a Christmas
+song especially, because it's not really about Christmas joy. It just kinda
+takes place with Santa as a character
[kismet] What else has Marjorie Gallen done? Is she a musician, or a
+producer, or what?
[isaac] MONOFlans: Do you relish the return to bare-bones touring that
+MonoPuff has brought to your life, or do you prefer the gluttonous excess of
+a big tour bus and a semi of pyrotechnics?
[Tmbg345] How is it a true story?
[eliza] Do you normally write the lyrics or is it a collaboration between
+everyone in the band?
[Ruprecht1] oh
[MONOflans] Harliquin: DIHTRTBL is my composition.
[RobNg] What is the rest of TMBG doing now?
[kismet] John, you have a Santa thing, don't you?
[ninja-bob] it'd be cool if there was a christmas compilation album with all
+those sort of xmas songs.
[PopinFrsh] Why did you decide to create Mono Puff?
[Matt1] is the devil really david hasslehoff?
[MrKlaw1] Mike sez: What do you think of King Missile, John? I need to know.
[Tmbg345] What you think of the AOL chat?? Pretty lame questions if you ask
+me...
[kismet] No, Robert Goulet is the devil, and Ferrante and Teicher are his
+imps.
[ninja-bob] i always thought that the devil was my 9th grade gym teacher.
[Tmbg345] TMBG should cover Santa Dog
[eliza] You know in Germany everyone LOVES DAVID HASSELHOFF!!!
[Ruprecht1] the aol chat was bad
[Harlequin] MONOflans: I'm still waiting for my Power of Dial-A-Song tape so I
+can hear *you* sing it. (DIHTR).
[Ruprecht1] this is much better ] John: What do you think of Wierd Al's TMBGish song, "Everything You Know Is
+Wrong"??
[MONOflans] isaac: well that's a omplicated question. The Mono Puff tour was a
+little bumpy, but was pretty easy-breazy. Also TMBG tours aren't exactly a
+stroll in the park when it comes to logistics and travel, etc.
[MONOflans] irc: Thanks
[kismet] What's with all the teeth-gnashing in a couple of early TMBG videos?
+Both of you do it.
[Seta] John, i called Dial-A-Song, and i think its an awesome idea :)
[Tmbg345] Is your look in the MP video based on the looks of the guitarist
+from Cheap Trick??
[banshee1] MONOflans: when traveling in cleveland..you can always crash at my
+place if needed!
[etherboy] No it must be ZZ top :)
[kismet] How were you guys able to clear out that area around the fountain in
+Central Park to shoot the "They'll Need a Crane" video?
[eliza] So john what about Las Vegas??!!
[Harlequin] What happened to DAS? It was down for about a week...
[MrKlaw1] Mike sez: I think the best TMBG videos were directed by Adam
+Bernstein. Where has he gone?
[Tmbg345] "It's Pat" was pretty good.
[MrKlaw1] and where do you have Bill Krauss tied up?
[MONOflans] MrKlaw 1: I've only hear one song, and it was pretty "blue." Not
+really my bag, but I imagine they have other things to offer. That guy is
+some kind of spoken word - poet dude I hear
[Ruprecht1] Klaw will never get the Keyboard back
[kismet] Who is the keyboardist in "They'll Need a Crane"? He looks
+familiar--an actor, maybe?
[etherboy] Adam Bernstien directed a Pere Ubu video too
[Seta] John you are left handed ? me too :)))
[MrKlaw1] thanks John...you should try to hear more King Missile, it is not
+all blue.
[kismet] Have the Clamdiggers released an album or EP? I haven't been able to
+find their stuff anywhere here in NYC.
[RobNg] Like detatchable penis?
[Ruprecht1] and some ween and some Wally Pleasant too
[MONOflans] MrKlaw 1: I saw Bill at the Mono Puff show, and he seemed happy
+and tanned as usual. He is doing voice over and acting in SF, and has a
+really interesting screen play he was telling me about
[Harlequin] The King Missile guy does spoken-poetry now. The band broke up,
+tho.
[irc] I hope you don't mind that I call my radio show at school, "Sapphire
+Bullets of Pure Love."
[isaac] Wally Pleasant! Someone else who's heard of Wally Pleasant! Ruprecht,
+you have taste!
[MrKlaw1] what is SF John??
[kismet] Who is Bill?
[Tmbg345] Have you quit using AOL?

[MrKlaw1] Bill is a god...
