    I love 'em.  They Rule.  
    
    ---Has anyone else seen their album?  Don't freak when you do.
    
    I thought they would be a bunch of poseurs myself.
    --But they are 2-cool.

196.3YODA::MCCARRONI'd pay to see that!Tue Jan 22 1991 13:148
    
    
    	I've seen it in ads.  Haven't looked for it in stores however.
    They do sound like something I might like.  April, have you ever 
    heard of Fishbone?  If you have, are the bands similar?

196.4Did U really think U could get rid of me that ezy?DPDMAI::THRELFALLfamous when you're deadTue Jan 22 1991 13:289
    RE: .3
    Yes, I have heard of fishbone, but I havn't really listened to them
    much yet, i have their first album, but was a little turned-off by it.
    From what I have to go on, no they don't sound alike; but then again, I
    haven't heard their newer stuff, so...........
    
    Go figure!
    'april
    ps--I guess I'll have 2 check it out, huh?

    	"One Funhouse" is a "fun" song.  These guys look like they
    	could be a blast to see in concert.
    
    	The guitarist is pretty good too.

196.6BUSY::SLABOUNTYBeing weird isn't enoughFri May 10 1996 15:459
    
    	April, what do you think of this album?
    
    	I love it ... have listened to it many times since I bought it.
    	Steve Grenier and I were CD shopping in Boston a couple years
    	ago and I was so confident he'd like it that I made HIM buy it.
    	8^)  Of course, we had just listened to it in the car and he
    	already had an idea of what it sounded like.
    
196.7MKOTS3::GRENIERFri May 10 1996 20:484
    Yeah, I use it for a coaster  now.  8^)  Actually, it IS a really
    good CD.  Too bad they didn't put out a second release.

196.8SCASS1::BARBER_Ait's just a matter of opinionMon May 13 1996 17:485
    Wow, trip!  I just listened to this CD over the weekend!  
    
    I still love it.  (see .2 & .4)
    
    Anyone heard of the band "Funland" ?  Are they anything like Funhouse?
196.9BUSY::SLABOUNTYCan you hear the drums, Fernando?Mon May 13 1996 18:119
    
    	RE: .8
    
    	Yes, I did see .2 and .4 ... but you're also the same person
    	who LOVED PotUSA, calling them your favorite new band, when
    	all you'd heard was "Lump".  So I wanted you to clarify.
    
    	8^)
    
196.10SCASS1::BARBER_Ait's just a matter of opinionTue May 14 1996 13:131
    Yes, that was me.  And I still like PotUSA, so THAIR!!!  8P
