================================================ Subject: Re: NCR - American Pearl Concert From: To: Date: Mon 25 Jun 2001 07:22:26 -0400 ================================================ I saw you during DOTN. We left after that. I was quite uncomfortable and I was freezing from the rain. I watched Econoline Crush. I like them a lot and am glad I got to see them, I know now to go and get their new album. American Pearl I have seen a couple times and enjoyed. You are lucky that you got to take pics etc! Talk to ya later! ~Michele ]\\[][G}{T§TÖ®]v[ wrote: >Aww damn...
