"hey y'all! even though i'm not from boston (i'm from the great state of alabama!), i feel very welcome by the people you see here on this page!...i have made some really good friends and have met some very cool people at the baigl parties and gatherings!...if you get the chance to meet any of us, you'll find out why i value them so much!...i love y'all!" [kinda cheezy, but true - smile]....
The first BAIGL I met was Anjeanette back in April when the two of us decided to drive up to Maine (4 hour drive one way), to see the Indigo Girls at Colby. A friend of mine from school went and the three of us just had the best time. I won't go into details, but some of the highlights were a great show, seeing Mike R on stage singing ctf, and running into Amy at L.L.Bean in Freeport. Thanks BAIGL. Dennis

Here I am at the original site of my first encounter with Ms Liz Piglet
Turcotte. I hadn't met her from the Baigl
list yet - had a friend hold up a sign and
VOILA! I found her!! (not Sus though, until
Amherst.) Being a proud MAD Baigl is an honor
...*sniff*...Although, some day we will get an extra "L" in there for Lift. To all the Baigls I've met - Bren (my buddy), Liz (piglet), Susan, Dennis, Jenny Korn, Anj (at TT's), Emily, Lynda, etc...you rock and may we all continue to worship the Indigo Girls in the future together!

I'm happy to be a BAIGL! Nowhere else on this planet will you find a more random or wonderful group of people! It all started as a small group of weirdos from the Northeast who wanted to have a forum for local concerts and info. It has since become a large group of weirdos who also share crazy good times, bad jokes, personal stories, and throw the best shindigos around! We are concert sluts, guitar goddesses, bad-asses, and more. I love this list 'cause there are peoples to be silly with, little to no flamage, and other human beings as willing as I to go far and generate much debt in search of a good concert. jennie riley who is cheezy yes, and content to be so.
After The Second Bi-Annual List Party:
