Do we all agree it's no longer a hiatus?

   Discussion: Do we all agree it's no longer a hiatus?
Matt · 16 years, 11 months ago

Hello everyone....a little strange that this is my first post to the board.  Perhaps more strange is that I only joined the board within the past week to see if anything is going on with the group.  I guess it's safe to say that the answer is no.  It's a shame really - I found myself going through my CDs a few weeks back as I'm converting a bunch for my mp3 player and put together my own "Moxy Fruvous Greatest Hits" album of sorts.  does anyone currently (july 14th, 2007) have any idea what the guys are doing these days?  it's seems strange that so much time has past since they last performed together.  Officially I think what we'd be looking at is a "reunion" show at this point (may I suggest Shea's in Buffalo - with proper push I have a feeling they could get the 3000 required to fill the joint :) ).

and for those who want to see the hiatus end, the only real way to do it would be for members of this board to form a true cover band, do their music, get some sort of following, and have them get pissed off 'cause we wouldn't do it as well they did.

well, maybe that wouldn't work :) here's hoping the guys are at least talking and might consider getting together again soon - even if it's not a huge all-out, touring every night sort of thing....

sincerely,

Matt in Buffalo

Ever since Jian's tragic death, I don't think there will be a reunion of any sorts.

We do know what they are doing. You'll find it through the forums here but as a quick recap from left to right:
  • Murray is the bass player for Great Big Sea
  • Jian is on CBC radio.
  • Mike is a solo artist. He sings songs celebrating Canadian history. He often performs at schools
  • Dave has a solo career.
  • Dave and Murray are both in the band Great Atomic Power


Have I forgotten anything?:

Oh yes Tobey is Martin Sexton's tour manager.

Just my luck to fall in love with a band that is, for lack of better words, dead by the time I discover it.
Life's funny like that...or sadistic.

What happened?  Did the families of the cats he killed team up & get him?

-1 for badly contructed reply
+0.5 for slightly obscure "Jian kills cats" reference

The cats are always innocent until they turn on you. ;)

Aww is that a calico?

unless they're these cats.

that is my favorite club!
Agent Scully Back · 16 years, 11 months ago
I'm unsure of what type of cat it is. However it's available for adoption at the Wyoming county (NY) SPCA.
Annika Back · 16 years, 11 months ago
Oh! I actually met Tobey at the last Martin Sexton show I went to.  I think I said something stupid like, "Tobey from Toronto? As in Fruvous Tobey?"   I'm surprised I didn't think to say so.

Yes, the Lesters are also back.

Oh, and Dave is still in Betty and The Bobs

I need help.  I glanced at that and read it as "The cats are always innocent until they turn you on.

Yoiks!

But his replacement, Sasan Ishraqi, who looks, sings, and writes just like him, has been doing well.

Get out of the river, it's filthy!  You'll contract a disease!

*repeats to self*  Must not make obligatory, obvious, sexual pun....

Fruvous hasn't been performing? I didn't notice.
