What is Hookahville?
Hookahville is a community, based on its members love and interest in the band Ekoostik Hookah. Twice a year the band holds an event called Hookahville (somewhere in Ohio, USA) where their fans can come together and for a few days be a part of a peaceful community hanging out to enjoy some great music, a beautiful place, and great people. This mailing list, is an extension of that - a place where hookah fans can gather year around to be a part of the hookah community.

What about asking for tape trades?
Tape trading is great! A perfect way to share the music with other people. If you are looking for someone to trade with - feel free to ask the list about it. If you are a newbie with no tapes to trade, ask for some one to make you some tapes, maybe in return for running a weed on the list, or by promising to give some copies out to some Hookahless friends of yours. In general if you take something from the community - try and be a good soul and give back to it as well.

Hitching rides to shows.
As of this writing (July 2, 2000), looking for rides to Hookah and Phish shows via this e-mail list is not prohibited. However, it is my opinion that this practise is reckless and unsafe. If you are under the age of 18 you should be advised that there are sex offenders who use the internet to prey on minors. Please don't send random postings to any of the
Hookah or Phish listservs or message boards looking for rides. Hookah and Phish are touring bands.
E-mail them via their respective websites and ask them to play your hometown. Let them come to you. --- Dave Allen

E-mail content restrictions
Some e-mail lists restrict what you can discuss. Not this list. You can pretty much chit-chat about whatever you like. Topics can range from baseball to
Phish to "who just had a baby" and so on. At least 50% of the e-mail you will recieve will be directly Hookah related. Listers who wish to discuss alternative topics put NHC (No Hookah Content) in the subject lines of their e-mail. If you like getting e-mail everyday, this listserv is for you. A smaller, more topical e-mail list can be found at egroups.com. It also recieves the occasional NHC e-mail.

Virus alerts
Please do not forward virus alerts to the listserv. E-mail based warnings are always hoaxes. You will frighten other newbies (which is the point of the hoax). Rely on major news sources such as
abcnews.com for information about real virus outbreaks. Visit sophos.com to learn more about internet hoaxes and scares. The Microsoft Network never posts news about virus outbreaks on their website msn.com. They are frequently sited as the source of information in virus hoaxes, so they purposely avoid posting virus news.

Anything Else?
Nope thats about it. You may want to introduce yourself to the list, so we can get to know you. But if your too shy - its fine to watch for a while until you have something to say :-)
Oh - one other thing
Enjoy yourself!

Three things I would change at Hookahville...

1) Litter It would be nice if everyone would clean up thier campsites on Sunday. Many of the fans do, but enough don't that the venues look like dumps after the show. It wouldn't be fair to talk about litter and not mention Steve Meyers and all the other hard-working folks who clean the site after Hookahville is over. Their sense of duty to the Hookahville community is unmatched. Our hats go off to them. Thanks!

2) Dogs
Notice! Since Spring Hookahville 1999, dogs have been officially banned from Hookahville.

Please do not bring your dog. Give him or her a nice vacation at your favorite kennel or a leave them with a loving friend or family member. Working dogs (ie. Dogs that help people who are deaf, blind or handicapped.) are the exception.

3) N2O and Fireworks Both are prohibited from Hookahville and both are dangerous. Yet year after year, both are brought to Hookahville en masse. Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) is an extremely powerful greenhouse gas and is a threat to the ozone layer. Anyone who cares about the environment should be hardcore anti-nitrous. Camping near N2O dealers is almost always a terrible experience because of the noise and numerous customers. Fireworks are just plain old stupid, and should be left at home.

Thats our "two cents"
E-mail me us you have any comments regarding this homepage. Thanks for stopping by!

peace and schwah,
