That could be slightly more vague if you tried a little harder. What is it, exactly, you are talking about?

moe. ; if your not sure what i'm talking about, then you don't have to reply because you probably aren't going to help me out with the info i'm looking for. although, as always, all replies are welcome - unless your talking about guerilla warfare or bad about aunt jamima. also, to nismo, i could have been more vague if i went with my original notion and just put moe. - but don't worry your sarcastic cliche' put me in my place; i'm now currently analyzing words like exact and specific to rectify my ways.

I think the responses provided are perfectly appropriate. If you post on a public forum, you can expect anyone (and their cousin) to answer....

Besides, sometimes we get people like this http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewtopic.php?t=15735 posting questions.... Then it gets fun.

And besides.... An anagram of moe. is OEM. And I'm for all that.

I know what you`re talking about, qwunk.
I`m not in to moe., but I`m a huge Bisco fan. Here`s a link for anyone who`s curious as to what we`re talking about. I assure you it is clean

I saw a moe show for 2003/2004 New Years Eve at the Aragon in Chicago.

Moe isn't neccessarily my type of music, but what a great show.

For those wondering, moe. is one of those "jam band"-ish groups. Personally, I hate Phish, but moe. is allright; says something about the band.

nismo, i as well didn't intend to come off as my post may read; but i thought if aunt jamima was referenced then your post couldn't be taken with a serious tone. i guess i was just bummed about the replies. anyways, my bad - here's a link to their sight http://www.moe.org/. if you like jambands that leave your head spinning and mind grinning, then check them out; they are one of those bands whom who have heard until you've seen them live. they are playing four dates:

mindlessfudge, i dig the biscuits too. have then ever toured in japan? i think they youngins in japan would go apeshitt over them.

I got my girlfriend (Japanese) in to them. She loves watching the DVD of the 5/8/04 Worcester show.

The problem with liking Bisco is that they hardly tour anymore.

I know Bisco played in Japan several years ago at some music fest, but they haven`t toured at all in Japan. I`d love it if they did, but they`re so damn lazy that I know it`ll never happen.

Have you heard this last new year`s run yet? A LOT of good stuff.

unfortunately, i haven't heard any disco biscuit creations in the last year; living in south korea puts a damper on live access to kick-but jamband music. however, i plan to rectify that next year when i move to portland, oregon Very Happy

. are you going to check out any of the moe. gigs in april? i'm envious of you teachers living in japan, in three years i haven't heard or seen a jamband on this peninsula.
