tiff they're referring to "ugly" lake michigan because the femmes started in milwaukee and every time that it rains here the sewer dept. dumps raw waste material into lake michigan

16 people took too many drugs, couldn't get a date to the prom and don't like American music

One of the best concerts I EVER saw,and I've seen a crapload..great songwriters...great song..and yes,I've done too many drugs also.Still a wonderful song..I picture it coming from the POV of an immigrant/foreign exchange student,new to America,in High School,nerdy/stoner type,back in the 80's maybe..asking the hot cheerleader chick to go to the prom...or maybe he's asking Ally Sheedy's character in The Breakfast Club.

allegedly they don't dump sewage in it anymore because Chicago sewed Milwaukee for dumping sewage.

I actually did just the right amount of drugs, but thx for askin' !!!!

I did too many drugs too!! BABY! Ilike American Music...it reminds me of me. Will I ever get to see the 'Femmes' play?
-
did you too many drugs too??



Why do they care if they are filmed? This is the stuff that fans want to see, and makes us buy more music. I think youtube gets the more exposure than anything. I love Violent Femmes. They need to take a lesson from Phish and Greatful Dead on this issue.

oh, i seriously doubt that the actual band had issues with getting filmed. it's the venue's policy to not allow cameras into the shows. the stupid thing is that they don't search people as you go in and if you get caught, they don't throw you out. they'll just confiscate your stuff until the end of the show...

Wow Gano got a little chunky. When was this? BTW was the security guy trying to spot you filming?

ha! it's funny you caught that. yeah, there were no cameras allowed and halfway through the song he spotted me. he was pointing his flashlight at me trying to show the other security guards where i was. by the time they got to me,the song was over...
