Flying Mice Don't Like Ice
FOUND by Rick
in Erie, Pennsylvania
A band (Flying Mice) didn't make it for a gig at the bar and I thought the odd combination of words on the sign made it a keeper.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
And due to edacious flying mice, the icing on the cake is cancelled as well.
Two things on that note amaze me:
The "..." after the first sentence.
And if the gig has been rescheduled, "Flying mice" is actually postponed, not cancelled, now, is it?
Must have been one heck of a cake ...
But pigs will fly?
Glad of the Finder's explanation, else I'd have corrected the grammar and suggested that this was either about one of those blasted airport delays where the plane is stuck on the tarmac for hours on end, OR that it was somehow connected with Monty Python's Flying Circus (pythons eat mice, don't they?) or the Flying Burrito Brothers (mice eat burritos, don't they?).
The real question: Is Flying Mice any good?
"Toby's flying lesson" by Cyndy Szekeres. New York: Little Simon, 2000. (Story book for 1-4 year olds about Toby, a mouse who takes flying lessons.)
However, in the north, cloudy with a chance of meatballs.
(oy..too early...)
I was a bit disappointed by the reality. I rather liked the absurdity of the note at face value. It brought some sort of Harry Potter images to mind.
And Librarian,
Monty python only did something about flying sheep (not mice) http://tinyurl.com/2jo3og
They did do a delightful musical mice bit though. http://tinyurl.com/3mykj4
Ah... the lost lyrics to "I Am The Walrus".
Let's all agree though: Flying Mice is a great band name.
Due to severe overexposure in the media, Falcon's Flying Fiasco has been cancelled.
Agreed. Flying Mice is a great name.
And mark my words --- IF you boys pull a stupid, jackass stunt like that again, you'll get just what Devon got!
I hate it when I get severe icing on my south.
I want a fierce cake with severe icing for my next hardcore birthday.
What if "Severe Icing" is another band?

In 1989, Jon Shain founded the Flying Mice, a folk-rock group based in Chapel Hill, NC; later, he would also help form WAKE, a spin-off from the Flying Mice. Between 1989 and 1998, Shain toured with these bands, traveling to festivals and clubs along the East Coast, and sharing the stage with luminaries such as David Grisman, Leon Russell, and the Dave Matthews Band. Following the breakup of WAKE, Shain went solo and toured the blues circuit.
[He has Buddyholliphobia and does not like to flying if there is any worries in regard to severe icing]
Well, if it is delicious icing, like mom used to make, then why cancel?
Flying mice with a slingshot is entertaining. At first I thought it was a competition like kite flying. I briefly hoped that others shared my sport but alas, I still pursue it on my own.
maybe some legwarmers would help the severe icing ...
And heavy frosting caused the cancellation of Cake's appearance.
HPD, the myspace page you offered doesn't match the bio you pasted in. Those guys are from ASHLAND, Kentucky, have 3 friends on their list, and no songs up. Ovcoarse the sign could refer to either band... but how old is this Find? These guys disbanded in 1996. was there a reunion?

(Now I'll have to check it out more closely, but that guy in their comments, Grog? --Appears to be posing with Bob Weir in his profile pic. Yum. Yep. Most definitely Bobby.)
Opulent 'Possum House Concert Series

(Columbia, SC)
I would love to attend a show- ANY show- at a place called the Opulent 'Possum House.
The find is roughly 15-18 yrs old. It was "re-found" recently amidst piles of old things at my dad's house.
