They Might Be Giants literally brought the stage down last night in
Milwaukee when about 80-100 people jumped up on stage during "The Famous
Polka", causing the front half of the stage to collapse.

About 45 minutes into the show, John Flansburgh said that for one song
the crowd should come out and polka, and "ignore the fire laws."

Apparently the audience of about 900 thought John meant they should jump
up on stage, because when they started the song, the crowd rushed up
onto the front half of the stage and began slamming, moshing, jumping
up and down and doing whatever the hell they felt like doing.

The band played on the back portion of the stage (obviously). The front
half was actually an old opera pit that was covered with a few boards
and had some kind of sheet over it.

The stage held for about 1 minute and 1/2, but then all of a sudden it
just gave in, and the entire front half collapsed. The Johns stopped
in the middle of their song and looked totally stunned.  The people
began crawling out of the mess and back to their seats.

3 people went to the hospital, but no one was seriously injured. I would
say at least 25-30 kids suffered scrapes and bruises.

It was very lucky that those standing in the front row jumped up on
stage, because they would have been hurt much worse if they would have
been standing in front of their seats.  Pieces of wood and a heavy
railing ended up on the front row seats.

Personally, I thought John was calling people up to dance on the
stage, but that made no sense to me, so I just stayed put.  What he 
obviously meant was for the crowd to come out and dance in the isles,
which wasn't allowed during the rest of the show.

Flansburgh was visibly shaken by what happened.  After making sure
everybody was ok, and after the crew cleaned up some of what had been
the stage, TMBG played for about 20-25 more minutes.

I ended up standing out by the bus waiting for the Johns to come
out. Flansburgh came out after about 10 minutes, but just walked right
by those of us waiting for him and he got into a car.  He looked
like hell, and it was obvious that he felt really bad about what
had taken place.

He did go to the hospital, though, to check out the kids that were
taken there.

And besides that, the show was great!  The band sounds excellent
together.

This is a Morrissey bootleg, not a Smiths boot.  It is of the Utrecht,
Holland show from 1991.  (The same show the live tracks off of We Hate
It When Our Friends Become Successful CD single)

As for getting it, that could be tough.  I've only seen one copy myself,
but someone else on the net might be able to get it.  There really are
no good shops that carry boots in Southern California (at least as far

Why is everone on this net so bloody humorless? It was a JOKE obviously. With a

I heard that they were interviewed on Radio 1 (UK) and stated that the
song was about one particular guy known around London. I have a feeling
that this is complete bollocks, but I would like to know for sure.
(Why? it seems to me to be a blatant pro-drugs song, and I hate to
think that they can release material like this and explain it away as
if we are all morons.)

Does anybody _know_ any more?

It's available on one CD with a previous release called _Case
Histories_.  The CD is titled simply _BIB_, though.  The catalog number
is TR-03CD from Trance Syndicate.  I just got it yesterday, and I
haven't listened to it, so I can't say how good it is, but I highly

	I think all new order fans should seek out and listen to at least one
joy division album, it really gives you a bit more respect for them, and
provides a completely different sound. NO's first album was a under-rated 
classic because it was such a MESH between the two.

	I love 'Closer', and especially 'Decades', man that has to be the best
song ever written.... I wonder what would have been if Ian didn't go, he

the period of excellence....

again, here is my smiths picture information....

I have done some checking around local photo shops and found that the
most reasonable price for a good reproduction of my picture is about
$8.00.  That's what I will be paying.  There are other cheaper I will
admit but the reproduction quality is shitty.  Like I have said before,
this picture is rare.  My friend Sheila went to one of the last Smiths
shows and all four band members posed for her.  It's a close up of all
four of them.  I have the negative so you won't find this picture
available anywhere else.  Anyhow, I feel that $15.00 (which includes all
shipping costs) is a reasonable price for this picture.  It is an 8" x
10" of all four of the Smiths.  Upon receipt of funds I will send your
picture within one to two days afterward.
 
Send $15.00 money order (out of state checks are a bitch to deposit)
            or cash, always good. :)

Missed the original article, but as a The The fan, gotta throw in my $0.02:

Don't forget Soul Mining!  A polished, danceable album.  Much more
single-minded (soundwise) than the others, but featuring Matt's patented
intensity.  Actually I don't know if it's patented, but I've certainly not
seen it duplicated.  Your mileage may differ... Anyway, Soul Mining turned
me onto The The back in 1983, and I still like to crank it fairly often.
For me, its consistent sound keeps the intensity up throughout the whole
album.  Features such English notables as Zeke Manyika on drums.
