- OH BOY - I didn't know this would start some sort of "tiff". I
- just checked this posting (I'm not a regular) and was a bit
- amused.
- I, obviously, really like Dennis (is it really Denis?)
- Leary, but I do admit that I'm not thrilled about his MTV
- connection. Some people may say he's "sold out" but I wouldn't
- go that far. I'm just really pissed off right now b/c I drove
- an hour last night to see him at James Madison University and
- it had sold out that morning. I didn't care that I wasted time
- driving, etc. but I was really counting on seeing him (although
- I just found out about the "show" 2 days before; tickets cost
- "$5 in advance and $8 at the door, which to me hinted at
- selling tickets at the door). And I know if he didn't do all
- this MTV and commercial stuff half the Joe College students
- wouldn't have been there and I saw Leary on the Improv show 2
- years ago and thought he was great. So basically I, being a
- bit selfish, felt that these bastards didn't deserve to go
- while I did. Anyway...
- If anybody hears of Leary "performing" anywhere please
- write to me.

- P.S. D. Leary has a book and cd out and was on Arsenio
- last Friday.
